Hi apologies for the indescriptive title,

Ideally i would like someone who has personal experience or DJI staff member to contact me regarding this.

So i have a mavic air and i am writing an application which will implement timeline missions and waypoints. The software will later be run on Phantom 4's but whilst im developing the application i need a device to test on. Can the mavic air run this code will i be able to atleast test the software on it.

thankyou in advance.

Air has no waypoints, so no, you cant.

Thank you Mats Bohlinsson, I need to know then are the drones no longer listed on the website viable? would a mavic pro work? I need a reasonably cheap alternative to the Phantom 4 Until completion.

Ideally I need a DJI Representative to reply, I need this information before I can progress in my development.

Mats Bohlinsson doesn't understand DJI drones. The Mavic Air 1 supports waypoint flight and you can use it as a full-fledged drone to test this feature. This is a good option and I did just that myself. But he has a low flight speed. The Mavic Air 2 is limited in functionality and there is no waypoint flight. You can also search online auctions for Mavic Pro Platinum.

Thank you for your response, can the Mavic air also execute timeline missions?

I cannot answer this question, since I have never used the DJIMissionControl class. And I can't check, because I sold mavic Air 1. But I think he supports it. Check before buying.
