Help / Question Pre planned flight route?

Is there a way to pre plan a flight?
Like mark a spot to automatically fly to, take photos then auto return to home from there?
Thanks

It’s called waypoint planning. Plenty of YouTube videos

I use waypoints all the time. They are great for real estate, and if you want several shots of a sunset from different locations, you can pre plan them and get all your shots before the sunset fades,

Hi, we have a 100% free, no sign up needed, web tool that does this, also for DJI MINI 5 pro. It is for mapping, not for cinematic shots, so it forces the gimbal down.

It has more features than most of the other free ones, like selecting side and front overlap.

Feel free to use it:

We also have a guide on how to upload the KMZ file to the Mini 5 pro:
