Final drone class for the Fall 2018 session.
Ran an auto mission to show some of the potential of the drones.

And as always, yes DJI, we know 3rd party apps may void the warranty.

If you pick a path that has an obstacle, does Spark find a way around it, or just hover waiting for you to intervene?

Please note my comment.
And you should support it...it is your SDK they are using.

It will stop if you have the forward sensors on.
But only for the solid stuff - won't be able to see a power line or antenna guy wire.

You can test your Litchi flight by using Virtual Litchi Mission.
It will tell you if you are going to smack into the ground.
And, it can help you adjust the camera gimbal for that perfect angle using Google Earth to simulate the flight.

Got an awesome Spark flight at 1640ft (500m) all the way around the out side perimeter of Devil's Tower National Park, Wyoming National Park (SIMULATED)

Don’t worry about him, we still have to see any of his work, claims to be a pro photographer amongst everything else. But not the gonads to post anything, in both his guises .

Nice work welcome to litchi.

"Simulated"  HAHAHA
Read that line about the flight around Devils Tower and thought about all the posts I've read about fines for flying in national parks.  Then to read 'Simulated' was icing on the cake!

But that is the key, my flight path is around the National Park.
Only 6.3 miles following the park perimeter outside by 100ft.
Spark doesn't have enough flight time but all the other DJI models do.
That is how I was able to fly around 3/4 of a State Park without violating park rules:



Still, trying to get clarification about the airport built nearby the tower in 2003.
Some kind of agreement to impose a 2 mile NFZ around from the center of the tower Sept - May.
And 3 miles June - August.

Maybe it was intended to be, but changes to movement are very abrupt (jumpy?).

Oh, that was my F550 hex that made that flight.
I have reproduced a few automated missions with the Spark but this one is 2 minutes outside the Spark's flight time.

I just posted to illustrate going around a perimeter.
