Mapping with Maps Made Easy
So I mapped an area and now I want upload to Maps Made Easy and I can't find the images anywhere. They are not on the SD card or my phone.

A few questions.
First, which drone are you using? If it is one with onboard memory, such as a Mavic 2 Pro, the images might in the drones internal memory instead of on the card.
If that is not the case, can you share the mission? It's possible the capture wasn't turned on and so all it did was fly the pattern. You can see the captures expected if you run a preview - they are shown on the graphs/timelines below the simulation.
I'm using a Mavic Air 2. It does appear like they are one the drone. Why is that? They usually would be on the SD card which is what I would like. https://app.dronelink.com/christopher-d-martin/my-first-project/plan/88EHHVdb34DIS7XyAHS6/uu83aFAh9I6wtH2MjRh7
There is a command you can run that tells the drone where to put the files. I have that as part of my basic camera setup to always select the SD card.
If you didn't include that in your plan then it will leave it wherever was set previously.
I can think of a few reasons why it would be going to the internal memory, such as:
Hopefully, one of those makes sense.
Going forward, I would suggest having a component that you include in missions that sets up the camera the way you like, including where the files are stored.
I'm glad you found your files.
As Barry says you can add a command but all settings stick across apps so it must be set to internal storage. Just go into DJI app and check all settings you want to use with DL too. RTH Altitude, Max Altitude and Distance, RTH state, Storage etc. Mine is always set to SD card in DJI Fly and it always saves my files on it every time. Good luck…
