Coming from Litchi..

I have used Litchi for my flight automation platform for several years, primarily as a way of capturing travel and local interest video with waypoints and POIs.  In that mode, it has served me well without incident and captured some great video.

As I evolved more to taking photographs, I found the Litchi product limiting in setting up intended shots and the inability of controlling the camera, i.e. setting the camera to AEB, framing panoramas, etc.  To be clear, you can do some of this with Litchi in a real-time, "function" type way but not easily if at all with pre-planned automation.

Dronelink with capabilities like simulated drone and camera/drone commands I can easily solve my photo needs while not sacrificing the mission/waypoint/POI video capabilities of Litchi.  I have successfully run several DL waypoint missions with my M2P where I have stopped video at a specific juncture, set up the camera for a pre-planned 2x2 panorama photo with exposure bracketing, taken the photo and then commenced video to the end of the mission.  

I will most likely continue to use Litchi for long running missions over distance where RC connectivity may be marginal but for custom missions which require camera and drone control I feel comfortable I have found a capable solution with Dronelink.

Thanks to the Dronelink Team

Looking forward to MA2 support...
