3. Orbit Mode - On the Fly - Moving Drone while paused

After the software update, the On The Fly Orbit does indeed work the way that I envisioned. Once an On The Fly orbit is set up and in execution, I can: 1.) Change the radius, height, speed, and gim...

3. Orbit Mode - On the Fly - Moving Drone while paused

So the change is in the app not the drone, right?  I'll fly again tomorrow to verify my statement. My belief is that I cannot alter the On The Fly orbit unless I make the adjustments while the orbi...

JIm, that does not happen.  If you pause the orbit and use the joysticks then on resume the drone will return to where it was when the orbit was paused.  The only way I can make changes is to use t...

3. Changing height and gimbal angle during an On The Fly Orbit.

HooRay!  I solved my own problem.  How?  I followed the instructions! =) So, all the things I wanted to do (alter radius, height, speed, and gimbal angle) work just fine in the On The Fly Orbit mod...

3. Orbit Mode - On the Fly - Moving Drone while paused

Jim, I like to use Drone Link in On The Fly Orbit for capturing shots for 3D modeling of small structures.   I like to shoot at 3 heights and 3 gimbal angles and maybe 3 radii.  I use On The Fly as...

3. Changing height and gimbal angle during an On The Fly Orbit.

Thank You, that article is great.  I must have missed the section on enabling stick control .  I'll try again tomorrow and report on this forum.

3. Is it possible to instruct Dronelink to stop and take the photo on a orbit mission?

Thank you, I will explore this option!  I am finding that if I just fly slow enough the distortions from the rolling shutter on my Mini2 do not interfere with the quality of the 3D modeling.  Of co...

3. What Plans allow setting actual lat and lon for center point of an orbit mission.

Thanks to everyone as I have learned how to accomplish my objective.  I also learned how to be sure my pre-planned mission will actually center on my desired center point for my orbit mission. In "...
