    Mapping flights created from an imported file of polygons or polylines

    Is there a mapping/flight control app for IOS that allows importing a KML/KMZ/SHP of polygons, and creating grid missions at each polygon? I have access to just about all the apps including the paid ones but can't find this feature.

    Still have never figured out why my P4P fell earlier this year, maybe someone here can help

    Sorry I disappeared. After back to back crashes I needed a break from even thinking about drones. But I used DJI Assistant 2 to get the .DAT flight logs. It saves as 1 giant .DAT file. The software said "compressing" when I selected where to save it. Is this the correct Aircraft log you guys...

    This current crash--the drone is in real bad shape. I have it in my possession though. Can I still get the device .dat from it when its extremely damaged? Here is the .txt file

    Here is my latest P4P crash that happened yesterday. Same scenario as the one I started the thread about... had eyes on it and then it suddenly just drops to the ground. https://www.phantomhelp.com/LogViewer/KG6EH9E0GR04GYYR1ONI/

    Sorry guys, I will connect the phantom to my PC tonight and get the logs you said to look for. But guess what? I literally about 30 minutes watched my Phantom4pro I bought to replace the one we've been talking about, fall from the sky in eerily similar fashion. What are the odds both occurred...

    I had VLOS the whole time. So did another guy who was there with me. It didn't hit a bird. All propellers were attached, and the battery only came out when it hit the ground and rolled a few feet away. yes i still have the aircraft.

    Earlier this year I had my P4P fall out of the sky and I still haven't ever gotten an answer as to why. Was wondering if someone here wouldn't mind taking a look at this log. I just want some closure! DJI refuses to even look at the log or to offer any support. Drone was past warranty so...

    3 Part Question, cell tower and wind turbine

    I'm seeing a demand for thermal pick up, especially in power distribution lines.. Very few pilots have adequate thermal capabilities but it's a very expensive endeavor.

    Grid pattern search using Litchi

    Litchi isn’t really a mapping app. There are plenty of free ones though. DroneDeploy, pic4dCapture, skycatch, and many more.

    Could I fly my P4P at 20mph, take 100 photos per minute, and get clear, crisp results?

    I’m just exploring some potential uses to see if it’s feasible. I asked this question with making an orthomosaic of a rural road with only frontlap and ideally a speed that can get it done in an affordable amount of time

    Could I fly my P4P at 20mph, take 100 photos per minute, and get clear, crisp results?

    I want to figure out the maximum speed / max photo that can produce good results.

    Anyone know why a grid flight would produce this?

    Flew a grid to make an ortho in dronedeploy, have done it 100 times. And this happened:

    Has anyone found a good recipe for their needs yet?

    Still finding Altizure to be the best mapping app for you?
