#6 - Electric Train
Doubled up as a Litchi training flight, too.
This is as it came off the MP. I could have edited out the beginning, until the train moved, but there’s one thing that really turns me on about these gadgets … just HOW static they seem to be when in a stationary hover, even when it’s moderately breezy. (See tree foliage.) So I just couldn’t cut that bit out!
I was using Litchi set up as a “Zip Wire” … where it follows the route, and you can concentrate on speed, heading, gimbal pitch.
OK - I’m still learning to trust this Litchi … so I’m still not doing enough of that concentrating … so pans/tilts a bit naff!
Also, set max speed a tad low to start chasing trains. I’d hoped that, since it’s pulling out of the station (Shawford - just south of Winchester) it would be a bit slower than it was.
Only 1 train an hour stops here … I’d already had a dummy run on the train an hour before and had to head home.
The dummy run had to be abandoned before it really got underway, as the MP started to head off at speed. I’d not set things to allow me to control speed.
So many settings in Litchi!
Actually, I think my lack of trust is more in me to set up the mission correctly than the software. LOL!
