I haven't had any problems as yet and been using since July '16. I have found real improvements in the P3S since the last firmware update especially with connection quality. With regard to using Litchi, make it as simple as possible and make sure your take off and return points are near to you at about 50ft up and 50ft away from you off the beach. If you are doing the pier, set a POI at the beginning and end of the pier and let Litchi work out the mid points, it should keep pointing at the pier all the way up. at the end use only two Waypoints and as bigger curve as you can manage. Make sure you have a really good GPS signal and the wind is below 15mph. Keep it at 50m plus and about 50 m from the pier if their are people on it to remain legal. Try it at 10mph and 20mph, then you could intercut the footage to make it more interesting. do forget to return home around the pier or at least 50m above it if you fly over. I'm looking forward to seeing your results. Oh and watch out for seagulls, they tend to nest on the piers and if you get too close they will want to know what you are up to.
