[OPEN BETA] Litchi Hub

Can you display The heading and gimbal pitch angle on the waypoint tab as in version 1? I use “point of interest” mode most often in my mission planning. The tab tells me I’m in point of interest mode, but does not tell me the gimbal pitch at the waypoint. Seeing this number helps me frame the shot without needing to run a simulation. For example, with my drone I know that a gimbal pitch of -17 degrees will show me a sliver of the sky.

Dear Litchi Team,

We’ve implemented meters as a global setting, as it’s much more intuitive for our users. The formula to calculate the turning radius is too complex for most of them to understand easily - and during a survey flight, we don’t want to risk missing any areas.

For example, tight waypoint angles can lead to the drone taking shortcuts, which results in certain areas being skipped. Using meters directly helps us avoid this issue reliably.

Thanks again for your great work - and have a wonderful day!

Best regards,
Bruno

  1. The “droneEnumValue” value written to the file is “65535”. The value DJI stores for all consumer drones is “68”. For DJI Enterprise drones, the value used must match that for the specific drone. Perhaps the value used for consumer drones is not as important. Is there a reason why “65535” is used instead of “68”?
  2. Every “Placemark” element of the waylines.wpml content is separated by a comma. I don’t know if this is a bug but I don’t think it should be necessary. Here is what is currently written to the waylines.wpml content:
    </Placemark>,
    <Placemark>
    That comma could be removed.
  3. The “actionGroupEndIndex” includes an extraneous space character at the end. I know this is nitpicking and doesn’t affect anything. It is just something that shows when closely examining and comparing output.
    "<wpml:actionGroupEndIndex>1</wpml:actionGroupEndIndex> " <— right here

Gimbal Pitch Bug

If a mission is created for a DJI Fly waypoint drone (my test done for Air 3S) and then changed to a non-DJI Fly waypoint drone (my test done for an Air 2S), the gimbal pitch angles are reset to 0 (zero).

Steps to reproduce error:

  1. Create a new mission in Hub v2 for an Air 3S.
  2. Set the global “Gimbal Pitch Mode” to “Transition”.
  3. Place a few waypoints and set their gimbal pitch to various angles.
  4. Change the “Drone Model” to “Air 2S”.
  5. Open the saved mission in Hub v1.
  6. Note that all gimbal pitch angles are 0 (zero).

Expected result: The gimbal pitch angles should be retained when switching from one drone model to another.

Hi. Just tried to use the new Beta Hub but failed. Message was “upload failed. Invalid parameters in waypoint.” However i replicated my settings in the old Mission Hub and all worked well. I’m very impressed with the GoogleEarth facity with the Beta version but seems I have a problem with using it.

Did you log out of the old version before logging into the new

Welcome to the forum.

It sounds like you are trying to import a mission. Is this a CSV import? This has worked for me so there must be something in your CSV file that is out of range. More details will be needed from you to troubleshoot this.

Are you suggesting that he needs to log out of the old Mission Hub before using the new Mission Hub? Or, that logging out of the old Mission Hub caused this error?

I can successfully use the new Mission Hub whether logged in or logged out of the old Mission Hub.

When I tried it, I couldn’t use the location search in the new hub, till I logged out of the old one

Both “My Location” and “Location Search” work for me. I am logged into both the old Mission Hub and the New. Despite this descrepancy, I don’t think this has anything to do with Fred’s issue.

Was just a thought, that was all

Hello! - I have Mavic 2 Pro’s - are there any plans on making those “old” drones, compatible to the new Hub? Thanks!
Andreas

They already are compatible. I use my Mavic 2 Pro without problem.

Your question appears to be about the new Mission Hub. However, you posted your question in the Litchi Pilot thread. I have moved this post and the reply to the Mission Hub thread.
