Did the flight again today as yesterday, only not the start behind the trees. This went perfectly, also happy when you see the MINI 3Pro arriving again after 10 minutes. Only when I started I couldn’t connect to the drone. Flew yesterday with no problem. After trying everything, restart smartphone, check on and off. Finally after having to pair again via the DJI app. No idea how this happened.
Philip, sometimes when I change settings in DJI Fly I forget to close the app completely and Pilot doesn’t connect to the drone. You need to check that DJI Fly or others 3rd party app are closed.

40s of a mapping of more than 20min with Litchi Pilot for those who say that Litchi is expensive at $30 because it doesn’t have a ‘Quickshot’ mode.
I’d just like a % remaining or min remaining to know how long it will take for my mission to finish…
I didn’t have the DJI Fly open, nothing had changed between the flight yesterday and now. I only started opening DJI Fly after I failed to pair the Litchi Beta with the drone. At first, the DJI Fly didn’t work either until he asked to pair. Then the Litchi Beta also worked immediately.
I’m curious to see what will happen on the next flight. The flight itself went perfectly.

I think I found the problem with not pairing after Patrick said he was closing DJI Fly. After reviewing my screen recording on my smartphone, I saw the DJI Fly screen. I think I clicked on that.

Philip, kan je me vertellen hoe ik in deze beta variant kom? Mijn project loopt nu al een maand vertraging op, de topic zegt dat: no more slots available
Can you give me permission the the Beta F app? I got a important project running and it’s gotting delayed by a month ‘Grow of a biggest food Forestry’ in the Netherlands.
Eind juli, begin augustus zocht ik op dit forum of er al iets bekent was over de nieuwe Litchi app voor de MINI 3 Pro. Je kon toen je aanmelden om aan de Beta versie mee te doen, je moest wel al in het bezit zijn van de Litchi app, die had ik al begin 2022 Het was een beperkt aantal wat kon inschrijven. Het blijkt dus nu vol te zijn.
At the end of July and beginning of August I searched this forum to see if anything was known about the new Litchi app for the MINI 3 Pro. You could then register to participate in the Beta version, but you had to already have the Litchi app, which I already had at the beginning of 2022. There was a limited number who could register. So it appears to be full now.
This app is at the tester limit
Ask the developer to free up slots by removing testers
@vico are you who I ask for new slots?

It would seem to work just fine with these features, which are now only in the beta phase.
Hello vico
Is it possible that I can test the beta version for the mini 3? I was so looking forward to it and now the number of participants has apparently reached🤦🏻♂️ I would be very grateful for that. Thank you
What did trigger the GPS mode them GOHOME? It was your input?
Also I did notice some glitch on the tilting camera when GOHOME, any reason?
Thanks for sharing your test.
the return to the home point came automatically when the flight was completed, but that occasional tilting of the camera happens sometimes, I don’t know if it is due to the plane or if it is related to the fact that there have been difficulties in aligning perfectly with the poi points during the flight, but a normal waypoint flight without poi alignments has worked and also the timing of the video recording, but I haven’t been able to take normal pictures in between, like you should have taken pictures halfway through as well, but only video recording worked, I don’t know if all these features are still even in use in this beta, 
If you want to do pictures automatic during the flight, you can use the function Photo Capture Interval. That did work for me doing photogrametry.
Regarding on-board waypoint mission.
-Would it be possible to store a mission in a raspberry pi or other lightweight
device that the mini 3 can carry?
Despite several claims on fora, VSC is NOT the result of lack of onboard storage but a deliberate choice by DJI as a dictated method of controlling the (some) drone(s) during waypoint missions.
If it was, one could just as well use the inserted SD card.
I am fully aware of that. My idea is to store the stick command mission on the carried device which takes the role of the remote controller.
Then it will not loose connection as the remote control function is carried by the drone.
That is certainly a possibility for an app developer as a workaround for DJI’s decision not to support on-board waypoints on some of their drones. However, it is not something your average Litchi user would be able to do. If you are an app developer, it would be interesting to hear if you have any success with that.
