"DJI Ultimate Flight" Utility

Drone Utility for "DJI Ultimate Flight"

Python Utility to convert GoogleEarth KML/KMZ paths and polygons into "DJI Ultimate Flight" CSV waypoint files

This utility allows to import waypoint files for the drone DJI Phantom 2VP, from GoogleEarth into the "DJI Ultimate Flight" app.

"DJI Ultimate Flight" is a customized app that expands the options available in the standard DJI app.

See the official site for more information: DJI Ultimate Flight

One handy option in this app is the ability to save and import waypoints as CSV files (text files, comma separated).

The utility presented here takes advantage of this option and makes it possible to acquire waypoints from GoogleEarth.

First of all you plan a flight path in GoogleEarth by drawing a "path object" or a "polygon object" and then save it on your PC, in a GoogleEarth standard format (.KML or .KMZ).

Then you run the utility:

- select the input file (the GoogleEarth KML or KMZ file)

- enter an output file name (with extension ".csv")

- set the desired flight Altitude and Speed

- set the desired Stay Time and Turn Mode to be applied at each waypoint

- click "Execute" and a message will pop-up, informing that the CSV file has been generated

Finally copy the CSV file from your PC to your Smartphone or Tablet, under the directory: DJI_Ultimate_Flight/GS

Load it as a waypoint file from the map display of the "DJI_Ultimate_Flight" app.

And there you have the GoogleEarth path/polygon available.

The Utility is written in Python 2.7 and can be downloaded from HERE.
