Hi StricklySpeaking.. late post/question here. Why don't you must use Skysense? and have you made any progress on your progress? thanks.

Meta4, i think some of the first part of this post got cut off. Anyway, we don't know what we don't know which is why I asked this question. Litchi works with the DJI platform, so I didn't know if someone out there had a method to control a controller from hundreds of miles away (via cell...

Good info.. thanks all!...

Andy9, Interesting comment , I thought questions and information sharing was one of the purposes of this forum... I have learned many things on UAV forums which were or were not possible. In fact, BIGAl07 mentioned a solution above, the problem is legality.

David, BIGAl07, thanks for the solutions. Pls excuse my ignorance here, but what I'm hearing is that a mission and it's waypoints, etc. can only be created from a GE map, not from a video/photo taken during a mission run. Also, Skymonkey raises another question for me. If I am 107 certified...

Thanks David. I want to have senior mgmt in Md see what the daily/weekly status is of a project in NY, but the local PM's in NY don't know how to operate a drone other than to turn it off / on. so I think what you are saying is that I can fly a mission over the site (with an old map) and map my...

yes, agree. thanks

Ha.. i actually thought of the terrorist thing after i posted it.. no, i am just trying to find a way for upper management to check on local project management progress at a construction site far away vs having to go there, or teach the local PMs how to fly/record from drones. Rootman, the...

I know the mission will continue without connectivity to my controller, but beyond that, does the controller have to be there to start/end it? thanks

nice

Thanks Rod and Fly Dawg. so there is no way to use a different "map" to program the mission from, i.e. fly a manual route with current mapping state, save the resulting picture/video as a new "map" and program future missions from this new "map". sounds like i would have to take GE as it is...

Hi all, I have not used Litchi yet, but understand I can draw out my waypoint mission using a map vs first flying the route (like DJI Go APP). My question is, what map will i be using? If it's google earth/maps/bing, etc., the map may be years old and certainly will not have daily/weekly...

Thanks BillCaf, my statement should have said: " After a certain amount of time (X minutes or hours), autonomously initiate the mission again and so forth.

This is the answer as far as Litchi support is concerned: "This is not something you can automate using Litchi. Starting a mission has to be done manually. Kind Regards, Litchi" Thanks all...

Yes, battery life is a concern and will have to be resolved (working on that), but my missions won't be more than 4 minutes each for now. For this stage of "the project", i'm focusing on finding something (Litchi?) that can automatically restart a mission after X minutes. thanks again.
