Best Practices

Flight PlanningRecommended Flight Settings

Altitude: 250 ft. (75 m) or higherOverlap: 65% sidelap and 75% frontlap

Mapping flat areas with tall objects and varied elevation

Don’t fly lower than 150 ft. (45 m) Increase frontlap to 80%

Maintain a Strong Connection with the DroneSome tips for boosting the live video signal

Reduce distance to droneTake off from center of the mission planReduce physical obstructionsPoint controller towards the droneSet DJI channel mode to ”Auto”
