I’m having same issue. I’ve been trying to figure it out but haven’t so far. The Rotation Rate is set to 45° per second and the Acceleration and Deceleration rate is 10° and -10° Per second respectively. I’ve tried slowing down the Rotation Rate to about 5 and Acceleration and Deceleration Rate to about 2. Still rotates quickly. Either we are not setting it up correctly or it’s up just the way it transitions to next command. Maybe Jim can help us with a setup to help.
Good Luck, Mike
Destinations (and therefore approaches) were not designed to allow full control over the flight behavior between the start and end point. If you want full control, you need to put a Path component between the two components in question and use markers.
Ok Jim. Not a big issue. If you could give an example of a short simple setup like that it would help. This old man is still learning slowly.
Thanks, Mike
Have you watched the tutorial on Path components?
I don't know if I understand correctly, but you say that it moves very fast when from Approach's point, it has to leave for the mission.
If that's the problem.
Normally I use a set of commands like Immediate list in the Approach point, including the start of the video.
To avoid turning the drone when it arrives at the approach point, I start it already with the heading as it would set it at the first waypoint.
To do it right, I run the simulator and read the degrees towards where the drone turns upon arrival at the waypoint. After noting the degrees, I return to the Approach settings and create an Add Drone Heading. Having the foresight to use as Reference North.
Similarly, you can already set the slope of the gimbal.
Now I do a question, how can I see the repository of another user?
They need to make it Public.
Thanks for the replies!
I still can't figure it out lol. My repo is public if anyone wants to have a look and try to fix it!
I spent DAYS creating the mission, 27 versions exported to Google Earth to test it, as the map in Dronelink wasn't showing the area from directly above so the path created would have had the drone crashing in to the building. However when i arrived on site to execute the mission it just kept saying "Location not available" even though i was stood in the exact spot i'd set as the take off point and i'd given it quite a big radius to allow for room to move if needed. I ended up having to fly manually using DJI Fly instead. Really disappointed.
Oh, the message "Location not available" happens when the drone is not well connected to the App.
I guess it is a bug of the beta version.
When it happens close the app and reconnect again. To be sure that it will works you have to see the little airplane with written Air 2 in red on the right corner of the screen.
If you only see the little airplane in gray it means that the connection is not well established.
Of course, you have to make sure you have built 2137 which still had support for Air 2. On build 140 it was removed.
Regarding the problem of buildings, remember that the restricted zone functionality has been introduced precisely to make the drone turn off any obstacles.
The Dronelink kernel knows how to avoid this and get back on the main path.
My repos are also public. Then I'm not able to look for yours. I tried entering the name of your one in the search but it doesn't return anything.
I've also tried changing the browser link to get there directly (by copying from mine) but I don't see anything anyway.
Hi! Thanks for the response.
I did try closing a re-opening the native app several times but it didn't work unfortunately. It seems to be a bug still in the Beta.
Here's a direct link to the mission if you'd like to see:

Now I see it.
Strange you cannot connect to the Drone. Do you see the little airplane with written Air 2 in red?
In the lower right corner.
I didn't look for the Air 2 in red so i can't remember, it worked on a previous very short test mission but not on this main one.
Hello Jim. This tutorial video was very helpful. I couldn't find this on any tutorials on dronelink's website and it's unlisted on Youtube. Are there any more hidden gems like this one? Thanks, and I'm loving dronelink so far. Great work!

I started with all these tutorials a long time ago. So much has changed over the past several years any many of the functions aren’t included. However, overall the basics still apply and may help.
