Anyone else getting this .. trying to setup a waypoints route in offline mode when I try to edit the altitude of a waypoint  it quickly drops from the default 164 ft to 65 ft and I cant seem to get it any higher than 65 ft again ?

just play with the app on your phone without turning on your drone... you must first upgrade the drones firmware and connect all. But after the first time your be able to play around with the Way points without turning on your drone  or controller.




you can see in the video he has the exact same thing with the 65 ft max height at 5.14

I have to upgrade firmware on an aircraft then turn it off to use an offline feature?

Ok updated FW and see the waypoint.  Shut off the aircraft but could still off-line use waypoints.  However if I quit the app and restart then the waypoints aren’t available.  Don’t understand this offline mode

If you kill the DJI app or go back to the dji home screen waypoints will disappear and you have to start the AC to restore the option it seems like the offline mode is kinda a glitch.

I am having the same issue in waypoints 2.0 with the height snapping to 20 meters max. No way to get it set heigher then 20 m. and also the no RC signal action, in the route settings, wont set to Return to home. When setting on return to home, it goes to ‘hover’
I don’t want my drone to hover at signal loss.
It will set to Continue task and landing, but it wont stay on Return to home when set.

I don't get the offline mode either.
The only way I can get to WP is via Intelligent mode menu button on the left, that button is not there when the RC/AC are disconnected.

Short test flight I can confirm if you set the RC Signal Loss to RTH it changes itself back to hover.

can confirm this too. I flew it along a river, first attempt 120m no probs. second attempt @ 50m it lost signal. at the final point i regained signal and it was just hovering and not RTH.

The DJI download webpage indicates that the new version of DJIGO4, V 4.3.2 is available on Google Play and they have a download link on their page... However this is inaccurate.  The only version available on Google Play is 4.3.11 and the version actually downloaded when you select the download link for V 4.3.2 is  V 4.3.11.  So I guess no Waypoints 2.0 for us Android users at this time and only silence from DJI as to when or why.

Waypoint 2.0 is a reskey to fly in  in Cityes.
blindly we need to select the way points and we need to fly,
if there is any cell towers and building towers we cannot control.
2.0 is only useful in outdoors location.
as of my experience the older version is only the best
we can select  the live elevations ,attitude, latitude and lock the waypoint.

I don't get this offline bit either. I have flown several times now with Waypoints 2.0 (IOS), but it is not available offline. I must have RC & AC powered up to see Waypoint option on either iPhone or iPad.

I'm guessing I'm not doing anything wrong and it's a DJI thing?

Nope, that's the way it works for me as well, you can power down as long as you dont close the DJI app and still use way-points but that's when I get the 65' max for waypoint height.

Update... Just spoke with a friend with same issue. Offline not an option unless everything powered up. All firmware and DJI Go 4 are up to date. Personally and if honest not a big deal for me as I would quickly plan route just prior to flight, but not necessarily the views of all, and it does say 'Offline' so not quite what was described. Works for some, and not for others is not an answer.

Could DJI please confirm as known issue as clearly it is, and what if anything is being done.

I noticed that this limitation is lifted when the drone is switched on.

Hi, the way it is done now - i am using smart controller - is unacceptable. You have to make a way to use a web site or an app on a PC or Mac, so we could setup a mission using monitor and a mouse, like with Litchi app. Or let Litchi work on a smart controller, as to use current waypoints while drone is powered up is quite masochistic.

Hi, thanks for the feedback. You could install third-party applications on our Smart remote, however, I'm afraid that we couldn't ensure the stability of the app if it will going to work with our unit. We will forward this suggestion to our designated department to see if we could provide this option in the future. Thank you for continued support.

Trying to set up waypoints as well.... if I don't change it from the initial 164, it will stay that way.  Otherwise,65 is the highest I can go.

Ya, initially I could do waypoints without being connected, it was nice and cool, but also altitude restricted (65") - with the latest version (iOS) I can no do waypoints offline.  This is pretty stupid.  And another thing Litchi does better.  I like to use my iPad to set up missions, on a nice big screen - then run them off the iPhone.  Couple this with the absolute flaky way waypoints handle poi (stop, turn, move) and I think it just means no one at DJI understands waypoints.  Also, iirc, setting up waypoints - the 'next' waypoint doesn't inherit from the previous  (it should inherit altitude and poi)  making it tedious to construct a mission.  

And no combining waypoints with hyperlapse in a meaningful (repeatable mission) way.  All this seems like it would involve minor fixes - but also highlights DJI's limited design vision.

Just at first glance, this is far from replacing Litchi.  I am not sure why DJI would not want to do whatever the can to compete with apps like Litchi.  Offline mode sucks.  You can't plan a flight on a mac or PC and then load it to your iOS device, or Smart Controller.  Really lacking IMO.
