This video demonstrates how to use ancient.land to quickly design grid missions for use with drones supported by Litchi.

The tool generates a csv file which can be imported into Litchi mission hub.
ancient.land increases the workflow rate for drones such as Mini 2 much faster and easier than other solutions brought forward thus far.

If you need to swap batteries during the mission, ensure that your drone is positioned to avoid obstacles and your RTH elevation is also adequate.

Leave all questions and suggestions in the comments below and I'll do my best to answer them.

Please consider whether the flight you have designed is safe and lawful before undertaking it.
ancient.land provides the means to design a mission but in no way guarantees that the mission is safe or lawful to fly.

  • YOU DEVELOPED THIS?! Mate it’s incredible literal game changer for me!!!! Bro can I send you money?!!!
  • @MrDrone423
    I hope Litchi takes notice, your grid system input is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better than the VLM's.

    Today I try a mission and my DJI Mini 2 made some nice pictures. The problem was curved lines in Litchi mission. The new mission today with straight lines works perfect. Thanks James!
  • This is a totally awesome tool, I guess you just saved plenty of potential drone crashes around the world. well done James, good man!
  • @GreenGabanX1
    Oh yes i love it. Thanks for taking time to build this.m especially when mini 2 (mine too) is the default. Keep it up. Waiting for next update. For now will try this on an open field.
  • @EricD7
    Thank you so much for this. Been wishing Litchi had this ability forever
  • This is exactly what I've been looking for. Drone deploy is very expensive for personal use. You're my savior! Will buy Litchi and use your design!

    Excellent clear instruction on this helpful drone mapping tool. I just need to learn how to stitch them all together now.
  • Thank you so much for this video, it was to the point, clear and extremely useful.
  • I'm from Brazil. Used to map using a Phantom 4 but now I started using an Air 2S to map. Before, I was manually drawing the flight plan and trying manually to pay attention at the SIDELAP. This way is very difficult and you don't have the best that the drone can offer to you. BUT NOW, USING YOUR SYSTEM, UUAAUUU!!!!!! Amazing ! Much faster ! And you can extract the best from the drone ! ! ! Congratulations ! ! ! !

    I saw the changes in you site so beautifull. So I hope you can add the funtion I talk to you before (upload a polygon kml/kmz or geojson/shp to you site). It's best way for user to exactly their area of interest. I looking forward the change in your next update.

    Excellent tool, I was able to create a crosshatch grid mission with this tool.
  • @Ard1400
    This is fantastic! Super!!!!! This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very much I am very happy with this.

    I've used Drone Deploy and switched to Pix-4-D (Capture and Mapper) with an academic license. Your app is easy to learn, powerful, and in my case it works almost instinctively. I'm just starting to use it with a DJI P4 Pro Multispectral (took a chance on a now unsupported drone - but I trust the P4 engineering and longetivity). I'll post again after I've had a chance to use this mapping tool for flight planning and execution and have made some first products using our Pix-4-D Mapper and ENVI image processing software. Thank you so much for your work and willingness to share.
  • this is awesome you did such a great job! its so easy to use and it works great thank you so much for making this
