way points for P3P

I'm new to mapping, do I understand correctly that the DJI Phantom 3 PRO Pilot GO App will not handle Flight planner, or viceversa. Or is there a solution to do mapping with waypoints and P3P, auto flight path?

If I am all wet please set me straight.. Thank you.

We were heavily considering adding this as a feature, but we are pretty certain that DJI will be implementing it in the future. We don't want to waste our effort on creating a duplicate function so we are going to hold off until we see what happens.

Our Map Pilot app, which is currently in beta testing, will allow for easy mapping flight planning. It will not plan arbitrary linear flights though.

thanks, Tudor. is Flight planner the same app? as Map Pilot?

The Flight Planner that is on our site is simply for estimation. It will generate an AWM file that can be loaded in the DJI 900 MHz and 2.4 GHz PC Ground Station interfaces and KMLs that can be loaded into APM Planner. It isn't software for operations, just planning. The Map Pilot app does both planning and operations on DJI Phantom 3 and Inspire 1 aircraft.

Tudor, in Flight Planner page, how do I get to the location I'm at, rather than scrolling and zooming across the country?

You scroll and zoom to get there. It doesn't have any way of knowing where you are. I guess we could look at adding that, but it won't be soon.

oh no need. I just thought there was a button somewhere and I was missing it.
