Why it is not possible that the mission also moves the camera as i did it when saving the points?

If you want this, you'll need to buy Litchi ... its a good app and can do more than just advanced waypoint missions.

OK and what happens if my bird crash with this app? Will it be under warranty? If its not a pilot error.

For me the waypoint system Dji implemented is the better one. Only set points on a map isn't very exact and you don't know how the view would be from there. For long missions ist better, but for short takes near by DJI is the game changer. To fly to the points and look through the camera is way better in my opinion. Only the function of automatic steering the camera is missing.
Please DJI implement the movement of the camera from point to point. I think this is not a big deal.

I really like waypoints, but it lacks a lot. Moving the gimbal would definitely be great.

The App crashing will not cause your drone to crash.....but FWIW from what I hear, the DJI GO and GO 4 apps seem  to crash more than the Litchi app.....

Flight Logic Autopilot is a better third party solution IMO. No warranty if you crash using other Apps.

This pretty nice overall and requires some time to study the program features. Links below

DJI only have to add one movemet to the points, that of the camera and then calculate the diffrence between them on the way.
I think that is not a huge thing, but it would be the best easy framing solution for waypoints.
