It will be interesting to see your results on the progressive course. One of the biggest complaints is how the Anafi stops or jerks around way points. If there is a POI between them it seems to be a smooth transition. Looking forward on your opinion on how well it handles the progressive course.

YESSS!!!! I am in the middle of editing my flight plan video and I just came out here to search for a thread on this very subject. I noticed that even with Automatic Progressive Course turned on the Anafi still pauses at each waypoint and it is exactly how you say. It is smooth when there is a POI. The Bebop 2 is MUCH smoother than this and I am very very surprised....and a bit disappointed. I hope Parrot corrects this in a firmware update. We have to get them to improve this to match the prior generation Bebop 2!

I also noticed that the camera does not reset to level like the Bebop 2 does either! Incredible!
 
Yes, something the actually charge money for you would think they would but more R&D into fixing this glitch. Its been around since day one.
 
Has anyone figured out a workaround for this issue? My area has a construction project going on that I wanted to fly every weekend and make a timelapse of but the thing stops, hovers a second, then rotates before continuing at each of the circled way-points.

If you're on the most recent firmware and have progressive course turned on, it shouldn't be doing that. Parrot actually put a fix in in response to my video. However, some guys have noted that it still pauses when there is an altitude change between waypoints and/or POIs. See what you think about this footage which was after the firmware update:
. Otherwise, you should reach out to Parrot, they are actually pretty good about responding.

Thanks!
 
I have searched this question and watched so many tutorials but never an answer to this..

In the flight plan, I go into timeline view and drag the camera icon to the relevant waypoint in order to set it for taking a photograph. The problem is that the camera has a default setting in flight plan currently fixed on hyperlapse. I do not want it to take hyperlapse pictures. I want to set the camera to take 360 panoramas or rectangular jpeg/dngs. However the only options I can adjust on the timeline view are to change the interval on the hyperlapse or the file type.. not to change to single shot or panorama.

I then go into manual flight mode where there are full options for all camera modes, and set the desired picture setting.. but no, it does not transfer when I open flight plan. The trouble is I know it's possible as it used to take rectangular jpegs when set to stills in flight plan.. and I don't know how it's changed!

Any thoughts?
Gareth
