Hi,

  

As soon as DJI adds support for Mavic Air in the DJI development kit (https://developer.dji.com/products/), we will then update Litchi with that new version and Litchi will support Mavic Air.
According to DJI, it will be added but we don’t know when. At this time, we also do not know if all flight modes will be supported.
Please follow us on facebook for the latest updates: https://www.facebook.com/flylitchi

  

Kind Regards,
Litchi

Thanks for that Quadkid, Litchi is such a great app for dji drones once waypoints are supported.

Yes, it is strange DJI is rather late with the SDK support for the Air. .

And generally, SDK is too much high level... not exactly a masterpiece of programming.
So, when DJI messes something up (which is pretty much constantly), all apps relying on API are also messed up.

As I remember the previous launches were much quicker. But I can be mistaken of course.

I'm 99.9% sure I saw a post from a forum admin saying, along the lines of them having no plan to release the SDK yet. I had a quick skim but cant find it.
