Long exposure hyperlapse photo in Litchi

[Safrudin]

Before I jump into Litchi I have a question to ask.
In a waypoint mission to do hyperlapse photo with long exposure … say 1" exposure for each picture taken. Does litchi stops the drone while taking the photo ?

[TriBar]

Yes,
In a ‘Straight Lines’ waypoint mission, at each waypoint you can set a time in seconds for the drone to stop before and after taking a photo.
This does NOT apply while using ‘Photo Capture Interval’, in this case the drone will not stop at all.

But you can make 99 points every 1 meter and stop and take a photo for each

Is that only workaround for this problem ? Very tedious works I think.

Thanks anyway

It’s just done. Install wp1 and wp2. And then go to the settings, use the “+” button.

Is it possible also to pause the mission - change battery - and resume the mission where I left ?

Have a look at this topic:

Waypoint mission with total duration of 60min

Hello, I am planning my flight route with the mini 2 to carry out photogamemetry of an industrial warehouse of 50,000.00 m2. The total duration of the waypoint flight plan is 60min, I have 3 batteries and with each one I plan to fly 20min. My question is, what should I do during the execution of the flight to change the batteries when it is time? Should I pause the mission? should i stop her? by changing the battery I can continue the mission from where I left off with the previous battery. Gre…

Thanks a lot.
Hope that solves my problem.

Use ‘Batch Edit’ to add the same Actions to all waypoints.
https://flylitchi.com/help#waypoints-p3

To enter ‘Batch Edit’ in the Mission Hub, use “Ctrl-Left Mouse Button” to click on 2 random waypoints, a new menu appears on the bottom, click on ‘SELECT ALL’, add the Actions and click ‘APPLY’.

Hi! Are you consider to add this functionality to app?
In my case - i want to make 2 orbiting hyperlapses around one object - one during the Day, second one at night and then stitch it in Adobe premiere. During the Day it’s nit a problem but without this function it’s impossible to do that at night or am I wrong?

[bpa]

What is the difference between day and night.

Oooh, you mean time delay? But for hyperlapse, it is better to make the same conditions for shooting day and night.

[Kamil]

During the day using interval option drone doesn’t stop to take each photo which is not a problem when shutter speed is about 1/500, but at night I need I.e. at least 2 sec of shutter speed.

[bpa]

You can put an interval photo in meters. And make the flight speed slower.

[Kamil]

It’s not a solution. I need a perfect sharp photographs, which cannot be done using your idea.

[bpa]

The drone will take photos at the shutter speed set in the settings. This requires low speed.

But for night shots, you need to take more waypoints.
