Possible issues with wayline flights on DJI Air 3 and DJI Air 3S #634

Report from community member:

"""
We encountered an issue while executing the flight plan on the RC 2 controller. The problem occurs when we “switch” the wayline file generated by the controller itself to a flight planned on Drone TM using a laptop.

Although the flight path appears correctly on the screen, once the plan is closed, an error message appears: “Error performing flight, waypoint flight suspended.” When we reopen the plan, the line becomes scrambled, even though the waypoints remain in the same locations.

I would like to know if there is any action we can take to fix this issue, as the controller does not perform well when we use more than 250 waypoints.
"""

It seems:

  • Loading a waypoint flight works, but there are too many points - to confirm.
  • Loading a wayline flight works initially, the lines between the waypoints become scrambled, despite the waypoint positions themselves being correctly placed?

Extra info we need:

  • The AOI and parameters used on DroneTM project generation (or a link to the project so we can see them).
  • How many points are in the final wayline flight?
  • Did you specify terrain following?
  • Does the RC2 have the latest updates / firmware installed?
  • Did you attempt to fly the mission despite the 'scrambled' lines? Could you confirm if the flight still works as expected? I would imagine this will still work, as the drone actually flys waypoint --> waypoint, and doesn't follow the 'lines' on the screen. But be ready to abort the mission when testing, just in case.
  • Any other relevant info that would help us debug this.
