As far as I know, Litchi will continue untill Critical battery level is reached and will then land wherever it is.
I have used Litchi for many many missions though and this was never a problem, not even with a mission 8515 meters long. Of course you need a fully loaded battery and you need prudence: if you see the battery going down fast when you still have connection, then it would be wise to abort the mission.
An other minus for Litchi is that, due to the limitations of the DJI SDK, Litchi can NOT direct the gimbal angle when connection is lost. So, the mission continues and the waypoints are followed scrupulously and the camera is pointed in the right direction towards the POI that is selected: these data are sent to the AC before the Litchi mission starts. But the DJI SDK does not allow Litchi to send data for the gimbal angle to be saved to and/or executed by the AC when there is no connection during the mission.
This can result in a mission where your video or photographs are nice, in, the right direction and taken at the right angle of the gimbal, but once the connection is lost, the gimbal angle gets stuck at the value of the last setting before disconnection. If that angle happens to be 0 ° and one of your next POI's happens to be right under the AC, you won't see it, just an horizon. |
