Litchi Update: support for the DJI Mini 2, Mini SE, Air 2S, Mavic 3

Recently, Litchi added support for the DJI Mini 2, Mini SE, and Air 2S for drone pilots who use smartphones running the Android operating system.

However, the drone app company is dependent on DJI releasing its next version of the DJI SDK to perfect the Litchi app.

“Behind the scenes, we have been working hard to perfect the latest release, however, some issues remain which can not be fixed until a DJI SDK update is released,” Litchi said in a recent release. “We hope this update will come soon, but in the meantime follow this link to learn more about these issues and possible workarounds.”

Litchi for iOS drone pilots

In the meantime, Litchi did not forget about iOS drone pilots.

DJI plans to include support for the Mini 2, Mini SE, and Air 2S to the DJI SDK in the last week of March 2022.

In early April, look for an iOS beta update that includes support for these new drone models.

DJI Mavic 3

Litchi will support the DJI Mavic 3 and RC Pro as soon as they are released on the DJI SDK, but so far, no date has been announced by the Chinese drone maker.

Litchi invites all drone pilots to check out the new forum at forum.flylitchi.com where you can share your feedback as well as any ideas you may have to improve the app, as well as vote on future improvements.
