Litchi path mode

[drwar]

Is there a way when creating a mission from the mission hub to Use both flight path modes. i.e. Straight lines so you can define actions and curved so you have smooth turns. I am thinking that either by combing two or more mission KML files into one. ( one in Straight line the other in curved ) Like the individual files were segments in a master flight plan or possibly some other method of editing and altering the KML would allow me to do that. I understand that if you don't get to a waypoint because it is on a curve it cannot execute an action but I don't understand why that should interfere with actions within straight segments of the plan that reach their waypoints. It appears in Mission Hub where I am planning everything that this setting is global but I do not see it in the exported KML. Can anyone give me any insight into this.

Just another note about something I observed. If I set the mission settings to Straight line so I can define actions. At other waypoints it does allow me to change the curve from the default of 1 ft to whatever curve I want. I just don't know if the curve will be executed with the path mode set to straight line.

Welcome to the forum!

Lot of questions there.

My experience is any curved waypoints in the mission, no actions will happen anywhere.

I understand this is a limit of what DJI provides in there SDK software.

Rod - That is unfortunate. Your explanation makes sense in tying the bits and pieces I have read together.
Not what I wanted to hear but ultimately your answer will save me time in not having figure this out the hard way.
