Thanks for the reply. Did find the ‘Undo’ and ‘Redo’ buttons which will come in handy. Will the ‘Clear’ button also be added in a future update? I also found this to be a handy feature from the previous version.
In the Flight Library I do like the ability to be able to toggle between alphabetical and previously worked on missions - very handy and easy to find missions when you have a long list of missions.

I agree. This would be very useful especially when planning vertical missions (e.g., Light Painting) and using a drone that uses DJI Fly.

Usability Issue:
The new “Simulation” mode works well to preview the flight from the perspective of the drone’s camera. The simulation function can be selected while in all viewing modes (2D Map, 3D Map, Google Earth). However, it only works properly while in the “Google Earth” mode.
Suggestion: When the “Simulation” button is selected, automatically switch to “Google Earth” view. Otherwise, the simulation, which appears to play, is not visible.
An alternative would be to “gray out” the “Simulation” button unless one is in “Google Earth” view.
Usability Issue:
On the main display, selecting the drone icon displays the mission selection (Flights) menu. Selecting the icon of a monitor with horizontal lines displays the global settings panel (which includes the drone selection). I find the icon used for the mission selection menu to be less than obvious.
Suggestions:
The simulation actually works in all 3 viewing modes. In 3D map mode, it is not obvious if you are zoomed out too much, but there is an arrow representing the drone and moving along the path. In 2D map mode the Litchi drone icon moves along the path.
Import CSV - Panorama not supported
The Panorama Action code is 9, but when importing CSV, error msg says range is [-1,8].

Feature Request - Camera Control Mode
No idea if the DJI SDK allows this - I am expecting not, since I never saw this done anywhere - but I would love to be able to switch my old DJI Mini 1 from normal photo to AEB mid-mission.
As is, I need multiples missions covering the same route for the points I want to generate HDR photos.
Cherry on top would be to be able to edit ISO and Shutter speed mid-mission, to accommodate different speeds during route.

Pano action is not actually implemented in Litchi Pilot yet. But we will fix the CSV import. On another note, CSV import needs to be updated to support new hub features, currently it only imports the old flight format.
It would be possible with the Litchi waypoint engine for sure. Unsure if the onboard/DJI engine supports that however, but their latest engine does support many more types of waypoint action than they used to with older drone models.
I am using the Litchi app, not the Litchi Pilot (old DJI drone, not supported in Pilot), but I got it, thanks.
On that note, I noticed that action limit is gone. Is that correct? I run a waypoint with 73 actions, and while there were some hiccups, it appeared to have run all the actions.
Any timeline available for .csv file exporting options?
Most new additions (new actions, path modes, etc) are only supported in Litchi Pilot. Unfortunately, we don’t have the resources to add these to the old app, as it’s based on a completely separate codebase.
The new Litchi Hub has no limit on the number of actions, although this may not work in the older app for some drone models.
CSV Export is not the highest priority. Please do let us know what you need it for so we can understand your needs better.
I have used it to export several missions, then combine them in Excel, then import the new CSV back into Litchi.
For example: a grid mission, an orbit mission and a helix mission. Useful when creating 3D model of a location.
Working in forestry, I envision incorporating CSV data into my geospatial analysis (eventually). A KML provides all of the same sort of info, so I suppose the CSV export would be more of a convenience.
Also, Sam_G makes a great point.
Good afternoon, I finished a mission in the new Litchi Hub mission portal and after checking with the simulator that everything was fine, I saved the mission with the same name. I exported .KML (only export at the moment) and downloaded the new .LCZH format (I don’t know what it corresponds to). Wanting to transform it into .csv with the old Litchi Hub when I go to open the mission it is not recognized and it opens all the waypoints on the equator!!! Why??? Is it normal and can it be corrected??
Thanks
Tried the new litchi hub for first time. Very impressive !
Job well done Litchi team; looking forward to playing with the pending grid tool
I hope you retain the litchi export to CSV!
Keep up the amazing work!

Ist sehr gute Entwicklung. Allerdings ist es im Moment schwer zu verfolgen was wofür kompatibel ist..
Can you make it so I can select more than one mission at a time, it would make it a lot easier for me to file my flights in the folder
with the old Litchi Hub when I go to open the mission it is not recognized and it opens all the waypoints on the equator
As I understand it, this is because the legacy hub is currently incompatible with Hub 2.0 missions.
See my post here regarding this behavior.
