I am amazed by the app and very happy with it. I am not programming the camera correctly, when I send it on long waypoint missions, I get the worst angles and views of anyone I have seen. 100 percent certain it’s all my errors, I’m using a DJI Mavic Air, was wanting to know of the best tutorial for good camera angles on waypoint missions using the Litchi App.Thanks!

Hi Robert,

Did you use the [flight simulator tool](https://forum.flylitchi.com/t/open-beta-litchi-hub/23994) on the [hub](https://hub.flylitchi.com/)? Simulation with Google Earth 3D should help you preview your flight and set your angles properly. Using POIs can also be helpful.

As Tribar mentioned, you can also plot manually your waypoints and gimbal angle while flying using “Waypoint at Aircraft” [key binding](https://flylitchi.com/help#settings-p3).

The simulation helped a lot. Now I do not understand why the camera stops recording during the mission, the only command I have used is start recording at waypoint 1, but it always stops recording immediately. I can’t find any information on this , any more help would be useful and appreciated, this forum has already fixed several problems for me.
