Want to continue mapping missions with your Anafi 4K?

Now that Pix4Dcapture is terminated, if you want to use your Anafi 4K again for mapping or modeling, try the attached procedure.
I've done several test flights with QGC. There were a variety of surprises that caused updates to the initial procedure version.
If you find an error in the procedure, let others know by adding a comment in this thread.
Happy mapping! Again.

Although both of my Anafis are gone, this was really a great thing you did for the remaining Anafi users.

Thank you.

I still have three. Solid performers, and actively used for paid work. I've been shooting videos and photos in PLOG, with editing in Davini Resolve (a steep learning curve, but worth it).

I could afford to lose one through the recent testing with QGC. In my first test flight, I was able to take control with the Skycontroller and a different tablet, to land it where I wanted. Did not happen in the next two test flights, and I haven't discovered what I did (or did not do) to get control during the first test flight. Maybe someone will determine what works, since it's a good idea to be able to abort a mission in some cases. As an alternative, I'm now testing a Mini 4 Pro for modeling/mapping.
