When flying an orbit mission

Litchi Pilot Beta has no Orbit Mode (yet).

Have a look at these topics:

Orbit Mode: Drone Not Correctly Pointing at Central POI When Taking Photos

Today, while performing an orbit flight, I noticed that when taking photos facing the central POI (the center of the orbit), the drone was not correctly pointing at the POI

Odd orbit behavior Litchi Pilot + new Litchi Hub

First of all, much credit to the Litchi team for a pair of great products! I’m just now getting back to Litchi after several years hiatus, with my new DJI Mini 3. Using Litchi Pilot build 520. I was testing some functionality, and ran into a strange one, that the Orbit functionality works perfectly in the 3D simulation (in this case “works perfectly” means that it performs the Orbit with the heading and gimbal locked onto the point of interest). The point of interest is the gazebo. However,…

Orbit mode centerpoint

Orbit mode centerpoint

The Litchi app can do an orbit with a minimum 15’ (3M) radius. The DJI Fly app can’t do a circle that small. BUT, the centerpoint of the orbit when marked on the map (using a table iPad) isn’t exactly the actual center. For example, an orbit around a flagpole or church spire may not have the object in the center (almost hit what I thought was the centerpoint structure). Am I not using the marker on the map properly? Is this just an approximate position based on GPS accuracy limits? Can the map…
