- Issue with rotation of Air 3S & Mini 4 Pro

Hey all.
First off, thanks to everybody working on the litchi program.
I’m currently trying to tell my drone to simply rotate to a given yaw position at a given waypoint.
So stop, change yaw angle to given value, continue mission.
Used the new beta and original litchi hub for this.
On both my drones (Air 3 S & Mini 3 Pro) the command for rotating gets implemented into the way lines files but the drones simply skip the action.
If I tell the the drone to:

  • Hover 2sec
  • Rotate to degree X
  • Hover 2sec
    It will hover 4 seconds and then continue the mission, skipping the rotation action.
    It writes:
<wpml:action>
                        <wpml:actionId>4</wpml:actionId>
                        <wpml:actionActuatorFunc>rotateYaw</wpml:actionActuatorFunc>
                        <wpml:actionActuatorFuncParam>
                            <wpml:aircraftHeading>-90</wpml:aircraftHeading>
                            <wpml:aircraftPathMode>followBadArc</wpml:aircraftPathMode>
                        </wpml:actionActuatorFuncParam>
                    </wpml:action>

When my controller creates a waypoint, the version in the second line of code states “1.0.2”.
Litchi hub beta notes the “1.0.6” version tho. Maybe this is an issue?
It seems the drone just skips the yaw action for some reason.
Maybe the M4P and A3S are inherently incapable of performing yaw motions while staying still? I can’t find an option on the controller itself for sure.

This is for the mission via the board computer, not the litchi app, which is important to me.

Any thoughts on this?

When using the DJI Flight Engine (Onboard), the ONLY possible Waypoint Settings are:
-Camera Action
-Altitude
-Speed
-Heading
-Gimbal Tilt
-Zoom
-Hover
the same as in the DJI Fly app.

The “Rotate Aircraft” waypoint action should work with the Mini 4 Pro (NOT with the Air 3) when choosing the Litchi Flight Engine.

The Mini 4 Pro can actually do most things using both engines as long as you fly with Litchi Pilot. The restrictions only apply when using DJI Fly which has a limited set of supported features.

DJI Fly only really supports yaw and gimbal transitions, it does not support gimbal pitch/drone yaw rotation actions

does Litchi support the Mini 4 Pro?

NO
The new Litchi Pilot Beta does:
