Hey Russ, when you are setting up the waypoints, try using a protractor that has different size circles on it as a template to draw a perfect circle and get a perfect radius for the point of interest at each waypoint. I’m not sure if it would be better to use arc or polyline, but having a more accurate circle might keep the camera’s perspective consistent on the POI. Thanks for the videos. Always something new to learn.

Nice video! One thing though you didn't set the arc radius. Once you've chosen arc go back to each wapoint and set the arc turning radius. This will help to get smoother video from point to point. The larger the turning radius the smoother it will be. Its the last input on the lower bar where altitude and speed are. It shown on way point 2 and so on because no arc is needed for way point 1.

Maybe you can create a two-point mission - 1 is your take off spot and 2 is the center of your POI. Set it to hover after completing mission, then switch over to POI with the same settings each time. By running the mission to point 2 then switching flight mode you would kind of guarantee the same center for the POI.

Very good info. Using a POI would ensure a smother circle. But with a changing structure while under construction it would hard to find your center point week after week . But if you’re somewhat close I don’t think it would matter. In any event this is the best explanation of waypoint 2 I’ve seen. Thanks man.

Hi Russ. I've Been using waypoints missions to film winter shots that I am now using again to film the same shots in spring. The idea being to show winter turning into summer with flying over trees as an example. But I've noticed that you don't really get the same shot and it's not as accurate as I hoped it would be. Iam having to dissolved cuts into each other to hind how far the footage is out. Hopefully dji can make the GPS more accurate soon.

Hey Use you way points within point of interest. use 1 or 2 waypoints if you have to use 2. one from starting point and 2 at the center to set your point of interest location and height. then write down your radius distance and speed for that mission. You'll always start from the same center point and height.

Hi Russ, I am a Real Estate photographer using a Mavic 2 Pro. I shoot stills only and feel that Waypoints will help me considerably. I have researched quite a bit and have not found what I am looking for. It is this: I would like to set missions from home, drive to the jobs, launch and shoot the home using waypoints, significantly speeding up my workflow. Unfortunately, most of my jobs are 10 to 30 miles away from home. I called DJI today and was fairly disappointed in the answer given by support. It took me several minutes to relay what I wanted the tech to understand. He kept telling me that I could only set waypoints by holding the drone over my head, (yes really). Eventually, he said it wasn't possible. I had to download GS Pro and pay for Waypoints through that site to do what I had in mind. I told him I knew it could be done using Litchi, but he was not helpful after that. I hope I am clear in my explanation. Do you or anyone have a suggestion for me? Thanks, Russ for all you do to help us here. I love your videos.

Russ, I think I would consider using the Litchi app for this, as it gives you the ability to create an orbit mission, then fly the exact same orbit again and again. I generally like to use the DJI app, but find this functionality a really great option for flying the exact same orbit over and over without having to fly over and set my point of orbit on each flight. Hope this helps you. I really enjoy your channel. Take care.

I hope dji can fix this in the next update also when using litchi the drone does not need to be powered on when making the flight plan VERY CONVENIENT and doesn’t drain the drones battery 🔋! And I think you can draw the mission on the map FAST AND EFFICIENT! I assume you are aware of most of this but maybe someone will find this helpful!

Hi Russ, another great (2-part) tutorial, thanks! You think you were late to the party two years ago .. I'm just here, haha! Q. I'm using the DJI SC and I want to create a waypoint route at home but the screen is a bit small. It might be a silly question but I'm assuming that my finished task is saved on the device that it's created on i.e. if I use my larger tablet to create my task, I'll need to fly the task with the tablet or, if I create my task south my SC, I'll need to fly the task with my SC? (I guess this is where Litchi still has the edge on Waypoints 2.0 in that I can logon on my laptop, create a task, then open the Litchi app on my SC once at the site) .. if that makes sense!

I would have use POI function in smart mode 100%. Set the speed to as slow as however much memory you have on your SD card, and get a nice slow video in DLOG, 4K. Take that into your video editor and adjust your speed there how you like, even bringing it back down to 1 mph and do some voice over narration. You can even finish off the video with a stability function, but that will cause clipping around the edges, so make sure your distance from POI is far enough away to where you won't miss it or the surroundings of it.

I believe the lines between the waypoints is a straight line and you had the camera at waypoint one in that direction and you were right about having the other points aim at the same place. That is where the mini adjustment came from. If you set the point of interest and set distance from and clockwise or counterclockwise is should be smooth. In other words, I don't think you need waypoints for a perfect circle around the plant. Waypoints would be better for an irregular shape property or plant.

Great Video! Now I need to go play with waypoints this weekend. I noticed at around 8:40 right before you sped it up, the red icon for your drone is following that faint blueish line which isn't a smooth arch from point to point. That must be the actual flight path and seems to correspond to the jerky camera movement you pointed out between 2 & 3, 3 to 4 and then again from 9 to 10 and 11 to 12. Another comment mentioned playing with the arc settings but I didn't see them. This project is very similar to one I will be doing in the near future so I want to figure out before constructions starts.

If I set an RTH from a waypoint, will it descend from that last waypoint, or will it descend from my standard RTH altitude? What if the mission is one way, and I want to meet the drone there, will the drone get confused if I am traveling a distance to meet it at the other end of the mission? Can I have it hover in place until I get to the point where I can control the final descent to land, and then land manually? Will trees that temporarily block the visual path to the drone, confuse it to detect signal loss from the controller and stop the mission? The mission is to record a video of a river which is bordered by trees and away from a road I will need to travel on to reach the end point and land manually. The river is not navigable by any craft due to it’s waterfalls, rapids, rocks, and dangerous locations on shore until the end point. Thank you for your response! Great study so far ... 😎

That's a lot of questions! I'll try to answer them all. When your drone engages RTH, it will return at whichever altitude is highest at the time. It will never descend to a preset RTH altitude. That number you set is just a minimum height. If you want to meet the drone at the final waypoint, then I would not have it RTH after the mission. It will go back to where you launched from. Yes, hover and land manually. Trees will not affect a mission. Once it's locked in, it does not use the controller to run the mission.

I created a new flight plan yesterday with 8 waypoints, flying around one building/POI. I did not set an elevation for the POI, which may explain what happened in my resulting video. But, when I watched the video later, the building, which was supposed to be the POI, was not, for many of the waypoints. And, I don't think it was ever centered in any of the waypoint positions. I am not sure what other adjustments to make, except I am going to elevate the POI to about 15 feet and see what difference that might make. BTW, the POI is not centered in the rough 360 degree circle that the waypoints make. They are at varying elevations and distances from the building.

While you video is good and does help with learning some issues, such as the drone making adjustments, I really wish you would have done all of the experimentation before showing your learning process. For example learn how to make a perfect mission then show us, but include information on what does not make a perfect mission. One final recommendation: I cannot see your finger touch when you select an option. Please add a video image of some sort (a small open circle?) over the image to show what you are clicking on.

You should try the arc setting for all waypoint except waypoint 1 and the last one. Set those at polyline

If choosing Point of Interest mode, would it be helpful to set up a Waypoints, single item location to insure you are always at the same center for the exact location for Poi t of Interest each time?

Great video, thank you. I went out to try this way of setting the waypoints as you showed and this is what happened. I could set the waypoints by flying to each one and clicking C1. Then I would click the GO button and it would bring up the Task Check page where I set the Cruising Speed and Arc, then I clicked Start. The drone flew back to the first waypoint like it should, but then just hovered. It hovered at the first waypoint and never moved. Also the camera didn't start recording. I tried several times with no luck. Any ideas why this would be? I'm flying the Mavic 2 Pro

I noticed in your video when setting waypoints manually the arrow is already pointing in the direction you want it to. I'm curious if you would need to mark a POI at all. As long as you know what your aiming at anyway. Just a thought.

Can you set a waypoint # 1 directly over the project and then drop your poi at that waypoint, so it uses that same exact position each time? Then create the arc with your 50+ waypoints. Start the mission with it focused on the poi, but not until the drone reaches waypoint # 2.
@alpinewonders
@alpinewonders 2 жыл бұрын
I wonder if someone could clarify something for me: is the camera always pointing ahead (ie the drone is effectively flying in a sideways curve) or is the camera gimbal also able to pan in a curve during a waypoints move? Hope the question makes sense

Let's say you have all your waypoints set just how you like, just how you show it here in the video, and then you go actually fly your mission and while you're flying you wish you would have made a couple of adjustments. What's the quickest/best way to make changes? For instance, you wish your gimbal was down just slightly more than you set it for and you make the adjustment while you're flying the mission but want that new setting from now on.
@Dustywitch
@Dustywitch 5 жыл бұрын
set a mission to fly waypoint and let the drone hover on arrival. Launch the drone and allow it to arrive. From that point manually set POI. This will ensure your launch position is always the same and so is your starting camera angle and height

Just designate that when in polyline and it keeps it when you switch to arc.

Turn off ARC mode when setting camera start and stop and then turn ARC mode back on. Experiment - imagine a square with sides of radius 100 ft. set a waypoint at each corner of the square each with a arc radius of 100 ft. I would expect it will fly a circle of radius 100 ft.

You looked good doing your settings. A little practice works. Also DJI doing fine tune Waypoint update will help. Thanks Ken

I find the maps that you need to use on the controller through the Go4 App really poor in comparison to Google Maps which I’ve used previously when using Litchi with a different drone. I’m now upgraded to the Zoom with Smart controller and this is my biggest complaint so far. Is there a way I can get Google Maps on the Smart controller so I can use this when doing waypoints etc? Or is the only way to do this by using Litchi again?
