    Hey Fly Dawg. Thanks for your willingness to take a look. Just trying to rule things out.

    P3P Waypoint Weirdness

    Might be helpful to know it's pausing between elevation changes, goes from 26ft to 48ft.

    P3P Waypoint Weirdness

    Hey all, My p3p has been doing weird things lately and I'm wondering if anyone has had this issue or may have a solution for me. I should note I crashed the drone the other week, but it was low impact into a bush (maybe feel 3-4 ft fall), and the drone flies totally normal in manual mode. I've...

    Litchi Waypoints: Altitude vs Above Ground

    Sar- thanks for all the help! I think the litchi people could be more clear in their user guide in a couple areas, but maybe this is what I get for skipping GO app for beginners. Well, I've bombarded you enough, so just know I definitely appreciate your patience and quick/ clear responses. I am...

    Litchi Waypoints: Altitude vs Above Ground

    Aha! Thank you! That's all very, very solid info for me. (Am I dumb or is that just not as intuitive as one might think? Sorry to hit you with a couple more Qs but... So I should be setting wp1 Alt. to '0', and proceed from there? How am I ensuring drone and mission coordinates align? I've...

    Litchi Waypoints: Altitude vs Above Ground

    Ok, I was with you until this^, and thanks for responding. I've been under the impression that the first waypoint is already directly over the takeoff location; essentially, that the takeoff location and first waypoint are one in the same. > I open mission hub > I click where I want it to...

    Litchi Waypoints: Altitude vs Above Ground

    Thanks Fly Dawg. That's good info to know regarding actions. Sorry if I was confusing, but was referring to the white Above Ground number, and the yellow Altitude number. Good looking out!

    Litchi Waypoints: Altitude vs Above Ground

    Apologies. I realize this has been covered numerous times, as I've likely read all of the responses, but it's still not crystal for me (total noob). Some threads on this were posted before the 'Above Ground' feature came out, some after, and a couple since the feature was recently updated...

    Ducted fan

    Thanks for your response. Very logical conclusions and I find it hard to disagree with any of your points. Certainly not interested in doing most of that! You saved me at least 8 hours of figuring half of this out on my own. This community never fails to deliver.

    Ducted fan

    I wanted to re-up this thread to see if anyone has experimented with ducted props (not guards) for phantoms, after watching this youtube video. I'm curious if ducting would actually improve battery life/ flight time longevity, as is theorized? I have a lightweight snapfit concept that...

    New Here, Litchi Mission Review?

    I'll just plan on that then; creating three new, three hole missions per nine holes. Seems the most prudent. I'll also re-route them for more space between the close houses (better safe then sorry). Thanks for the heads up on the litchi edit quirk. Regarding VOs, that's not a bad idea at all...

    New Here, Litchi Mission Review?

    Thank you for taking the time to check the mission and for responding. And thanks for bringing up the increased battery stress due to elevation change. I agree that my napkin math isn't to be relied on especially given my super green status. My hope with the private residences that are super...
