@JakimFignole These are great requirements and I would like to share we are working on some enhancements in this very area in the app that should be available next year. In the meantime, I have some ideas you could try. 1. Use the "Mission Location" search feature when planning your flights to search for specific coordinates. This should search for that location and center the map at that location. 2. Then tap the "Center Mission Area to Map" button in the mission data panel. This will move the panoramic location to the center of the map which should be the coordinates you just entered in step 1. I know, I'll be the first to admit, this is a little clunky but we are working to improve this workflow as we know the shot lists you are provided with are getting more sophisticated and detailed. We would love to talk with you about your day to day needs. If you're interested please just send an email to bpierce@esri.com. Hope this helps.

Good question @LenOlyottMountIsa , In order to use the M3E or the M4E with ArcGIS Flight you must download the 5.2 (or newer) version of ArcGIS Flight as well as install the Flight Connection Android app on the drone's controller. This app helps the iOS version of Flight, running on the iPad, communicate with the newer DJI drones like the M4E. Instructions on how to implement this workflow can be found in the ArcGIS Flight Documentation . But we're not done with Android. We are also currently working on a version of ArcGIS Flight which will be redesigned to operate directly on the drone's controller with no iPad in the mix. This app will be an Android application as all the new drone controllers imbed Android devices. Were hoping this will greatly simply field operations by eliminating the need of having to connect an iPad with the controller which in turn connects with the drone.

@JeffreyEbner Thanks for the feedback. We are working on support DJI's Matrice 4 Enterprise (M4E) drone right now and hope to be able to support this vehicle in our next release of ArcGIS Flight. We are also certifying use of DJI's D-RTK 3 Multifunctional Base Station and hope to support that hardware in the same release. @AustenThum FYI

Unfortunately, we can't support this drone platform because Skydio does not provide a public SDK (Software Developer Kit) which would allow the Flight app to communicate with the drone and provide the appropriate instruction prior to autonomous flight. All the drones we currently support including the upcoming DJI M3E have public SDKs which we use to integrate with that platform.

@KevinChan331 we are currently working on supporting the DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise (M3E) and should be in public beta early next year. After that, we will be evaluating what other drones to support next so ideas like this really help us get our priorities straight so thanks for sharing. DJI Matrice 350 is certainly on that list. @AustenThum FYI

Hi @DylanHinton, Thanks for the question. In the current release of ArcGIS Flight the app is using the waypoints that are optimized for a photogrammetry type missions. For video mode, we are using the same waypoint file but instead of taking still photos we are instead starting a recording session at the start of the mission and turning it off at the end. I have added a more "cinematic" style video smoothing option as an enhancement we can consider for a future release. As far as suggestions, perhaps reducing the number of "photos" taken for the mission might smooth out the flight path slightly but I feel the true solution would be for the Flight app to create a mission designed and optimized for this very workflow/use case. Something I think the team should consider in future releases as I can see it's value.

Thanks Jakim and thanks for your interest. Just a point of clarification we are not in beta yet and probably won't be until late into the fall but excited to be supporting the M3E soon.

Hi Jakim, Thanks for reaching out. Our goal is to support the DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise first and then we will focus on other drones shortly after that. Please send your contact info to bpierce@esri.com and I will be sure to add you to our beta list and keep you informed as to our progress.

@Daisyeater , Thanks for your feedback here. The ArcGIS Flight app does support Freefly System's Astro drone and are working to certify their Astro Max offering which can be configured to support the Blue UAS standard if your organization requires Blue UAS certification for it's operations. We are also constantly looking to support the other vehicle platforms our customers might be interested in using for their drone mapping operations.

@JoeBryant1 thanks for sharing. We don't have any immediate plans to support that drone manufacturer in the app but we can certainly consider it for a future enhancement. I will take this request to the team and perhaps we could do a little exploratory research. I definitely encourage you to submit a new Idea on our ideas site . This really helps us understand the scope of the feature, get clarity on it's implications and it's overall applicability/popularity with existing users.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This site is now out of date, for the most up to date information on supported Drones and Cameras for the ArcGIS Flight app please go to the Hardware and Compatibility section of the ArcGIS Flight Documentation. ArcGIS Flight – Matrix of Supported Aircraft, Cameras, and Lenses (February 2025) This resource describes the aircraft, cameras, and lenses that are supported for flight planning & mission control by the ArcGIS Flight app. This also includes the latest test firmware version and supplemental camera configuration information. Important note: Site Scan for ArcGIS, ArcGIS Drone2Map, and ArcGIS Reality for ArcGIS Pro provide processing of any georeferenced drone image. If your drone is not supported by the Flight app, you may still use the manufacturer's application to capture images for processing in the aforementioned ArcGIS Reality products. The following aircraft are subject to routine testing within ArcGIS Flight, and their performance can be verified.
