Four battery lights stay on at full charge while on charger. I reset battery but no change. Indicates 98% at flight. Is there a potential problem?

Good to know if you use Android! I use an iPhone 7 or iPad mini4 and have had no problems.

I have been documenting a construction of a building with steel frame. I use Pix4Dcapture for acquisition and Metashape for processing. The steel frame makes for unsatisfactory models as you said. Any suggestions to rectify the open structure issue in photogrammetry. BTW, I bought Metashape...

ANAFI is my first drone. 56 flights and no problems. Well I did get too close to a brick wall at 43 (**** wide angle lenses flying FPV). Bought a new arm and fixed it myself. The ANAFI covers a site with one battery that my P4P needs one plus. Conduct a thorough preflight and have all symbols...

Exactly why I do attempt altering code on third party firmware. My next post would be in a “My Anafi drop from the sky“ thread.

I followed the discussion about reconfiguring Litchi for ANAFI. I am afraid to alter code. I will lose business to a DJI pilot. Thanks for reading.

I’ve been using Pix4Dcapture to conduct all of my mapping. I am finding I need to follow terrain in areas of elevation changes greater than 30 meters. I have access to topographic data that could be used with Pix4Dcapture but terrain following is not available. Flight Plan would take too much...

For two months I have owned my Anafi. I have started FreeFlight6 to confirm connections and good GPS, then I open and start Pix4Dcapture. My next mission I will just use Pix4Dcapture. The same checks are present, just in a different format. I will also test the ‘fly up’ command to become...

I found out today do not minimize Pix4Dcapture to see whats going on in FreeFlight 6. The Anafi started flying a diagonal to the planned path. I RTH and restarted the mission and used Pix4Dcapture to see flight data.

From Augustine: ”The other thing is 3D rendering is very taxing on a computer. If yours is not up to the job be prepared for a long day going through the work flow.“ Best to have dedicated computer.

Even my white and silver iPhone 7 screen goes dark and almost useless in heat and sun. I had to RTH on the SkyController and find shade my first flight.

Thanks. Valuable information.

I did not know that I can change the gimbal during a flight while using Pix4Dcapture. I assumed that Pix4Dcapture preset the focal length and gimbal. I will try that on my next flight.

Thank You Phil. I now understand the Pix4Dcapture Anafi presets for optimum nadir imagery for mapping. I will experiment with altitude for better GSD. As a new drone pilot I appreciate how Pix4Dcapture, FreeFlight6 and Anafi work together. My first mapping flight was without incident.

Can the ANAFI focal length be changed for pix4Dcapture? I would prefer a longer focal length than 23mm (35mm photography equivalent).
