Grid Mission: Calculated Speed based on ???

David Terrazas

Hello All,

I am creating a crosshatch 3D grid mission with these settings (See Images Below). 
I am flying a Mavic 3 Enterprise, the top speed I can accomplish it 11mph with these setting.  When I run the same mission in DJI Pilot 2, I can fly ~21mph.  Why does it slow down so much in dronelink?

  • Is it calculated on which drone and payload is selected?
  • Is it the altitude and overlap settings?
  • Timing vs distance intervals?
  • All of the above?


Plan Settings: Default Max speed 10mph

Map Setting: Default Max Speed 20mph

Flight Estimates: Max Speed 11mph



Thanks for any information you can share.

    Also, I  did run the mission preview and the airspeed never went above 11 mph.

    The speed will depend on many factors depending on how the map component is set up.

    Hey Mike,

    Thanks for the quick response.

    My process for loadoing componants was pretty straight forward.

    1. Clicked on create plan (Plan Settings Image)
    2. Map plan was added automatically (Second Image)
      Selected Mavic 3 Enterprise-Wide for the drone
      Updated Altitude
      Updated Overlap
      Set capture priority to distance
      Set speed max to 20mph
      Set pattern to Grid
      Adjusted gimbal pitch to -75 reference horizon
    3. Previewed mission and it runs at 11mph
    4. Here is a view of the rest of the map settings.  I do not know why there is a "Min. Capture Interval" set to 2 seconds when I selected a distance interval. Capture speed is set to 20.0 mph

    How do I force it to fly faster?  The Mavic 3 Enterprise has a very fast global shutter.  It should be able to fly at faster speeds.

    Is there a different way to setup map componants in a mission, that would allow speed to be changed?

    Thanks

    I am using a growth plan.

    I think I found the issue...the "Min Capture Interval
