Mini 2 rotates at first waypoint 🤬

Mission Autorotates

Every time I fly a mission, it autorotates at the first (take off) waypoint. No matter what mission I fly, it does it. After rotation, it fly’s the mission as planned.

Can someone explain what I’m doing wrong so I can correct it? Please ignore the color as I had a PL filter on

Auto rotates

In this particular clip I would guess that WP1 is about 0.6m behind the drone & take-off point, in wich case there’s nothing wrong.

Looks like the same “issue”/question you asked one year ago:

Always rotates north on takeoff

When I create a waypoint mission, (10-15 waypoints), with a POI and take off, my Air 2 & Mini 2, always rotates to the north before heading to the second waypoint. How do I stop this from occurring?

It would be helpfull if you were willing to share an affected mission and explain where your take-off point is…
Here you can read how to do that:

Sharing a mission in the mission hub

In order for members here to be able of real help, you should share your mission. Here’s how you do it: In the Mission Hub: -Mark your mission as NOT private. -Copy the link in the adress bar of your browser, and paste it in your post. Example: [https:/flylitchi.com/hub?m=aHpGvjejL9] [Sharing a mission]

I did another test mission and it’s still auto rotating. I unlocked the file; Mission Hub - Litchi and added a YouTube video.

In this case:
The actual home point is between WP1 and WP4.
The drone takes off facing WP2.
At 125ft altitude the drone rotates towards WP1 then flies to WP1 (that distance is so small you don’t notice it), then rotates towards WP2, flies to WP2, rotates to WP3, flies to WP3, rotates to WP4, flies to WP4 and lands.

ALL NORMAL BEHAVIOUR.

Delete WP1 and take off at the same position facing the same direction and the drone will NOT or barely rotate because then it’s already facing WP1 (former WP2).

I did another test mission and it’s still auto rotating.

When executing any mission, the drone will take off from the home point and ascend to the height of the first waypoint. When the drone reaches that height, it will rotate to point toward waypoint 1 and fly towards it. Once at waypoint 1, the drone will rotate according to the flight configuration and begin the mission.
