Dronelink Flight Reviews

DronelinkFlight has great potential, however, if you are looking to use DronelinkFlight with the Mavic mini, this is not for you. I recommend waiting for the 3rd party application market to mature before you throw away twenty ($20!) dollars at an unusable app.

If you do however dare to purchase DronelinkFlight, expect for it to work about a quarter of the time at best. Expect to waste about a third to half of every battery waiting for DronelinkFlight to calculate movement while your drone hovers 20 feet off the ground. Expect to encounter frequent “telemetry delayed” errors as well even if you have a powerful mobile device connected over high speed WiFi. Expect to have your drone stuck in the sky mid mission while you frantically gamble as to wether DronelinkFlight can recalculate in time or if you’d be better off just landing and waiting for it to figure itself out. Additionally you better hope that the commands DronelinkFlight does come up with are good as the latency in the video feed ranges from 1 to 10 seconds so good luck saving anything with that.

In conclusion, when DronelinkFlight does work it works beautifully; however, it’s flaws cannot be ignored for its high price tag and for that reason I simply cannot recommend DronelinkFlight.

The mission planner works on a PC or the portable device but, on portable you will need a data connection for the mission planner.

This application seamlessly flew a large mission with two battery changes, it retuned home did the battery switch and it completed the mission.

I was able to create a point cloud and an ortho very accurately with GCP’s.

App was crashing immediately when connecting the drone. Switched to classic mode and it works beautifully.

Thoroughly impressed with DronelinkFlight and the Dronelink team. Very cost effective platform that allows easy integration and use across many mission types and hardware. Very responsive customer support as well as an extensive FAQ and community forum to work through any questions. Take a good look at what Dronelink has to offer. It will save you a ton of money and avoid unnecessary wasted time in the field.

I’m new to drone flying so I was looking for a way to plan my flights before I got to where I was going. Dronelink let’s me plan ahead. I have my vacation flights planned loaded ready to fly.

I signed up for the Professional Starter plan on the monthly billing because I just wanted to try it out.

I’m so glad that I did. This platform is rich with features that is going to help me polish my work and grow my business.

One of the many features that I like about this platform is the ability to preview your mission. Get it programmed in and it does a simulation showing how the flight should look, including your gimbals POV which is super helpful.

One service they don’t offer that I wish they did us data processing. I wish I could upload my data and have the process an orthomosaic map or a 3D model for me after the flight. I have to take that to another provider. Not a biggie. Just would be nice.

Overall I’m very satisfied and would highly recommend them.

Also, I decided that it was worth it and switched to the annual plan and saved some money doing so.

I didn’t realize this until it flew my mini se on a mapping mission over my house

DronelinkFlight has a lot of options for running different kinds of maps including Facades (Buildings, Towers, Bridges, Statues) which would key in creating 3D Models!

Incredible capabilities.
Well thought out for the pro.

Love DronelinkFlight . Little bit of a learning curve but if you take time to learn DronelinkFlight it can be very useful. Like DronelinkFlight much more than Litchi. Support is great too if you have questions.

Thanks to Jim and Team bringing my Air 2S forward in terms of functionality! Now I’m able to leverage the drone’s great camera for mapping applications. There are numerous functions to make it a one stop app!

This is one of those amazing, developer inspired apps that is essential for drone automation for the drone industry. So many use cases can be realized using this software. From photography and repeatability, to mapping. The sky is the limit! Love Dronelink!

This is absolutely the most fully featured drone automation app there out there. I've used just about all of them, and this is the one that I find myself coming back to over and over because everything is in one place.

I use this to pre-plan missions and then virtually run them to ensure that my time on site is minimized.

By far the most powerful flight automation app available for DJI drones. It’s virtually limitless in terms of what you can program a drone to do. I love the previewer which allows me to virtual plan and design complex flights in 3D before I get to a site for a job. There’s a bit of a learning curve, but there are shared flight plans available to help you quickly get started, and you can build upon what others have created and share those flight plans with the community. Everything is instruction based, so you can tell the drone exactly what you want it to do, and there are very granular controls down to specific advanced camera settings and variable flight parameters. It’s really nothing short of amazing what you can do, if you put it good use!

Just had a major issue that I caused to happen in DL
That’s not the reason for this review
Reason is the support that the DL staff gives and in unbelievable time
So if you are a Droner and want to push your drone knowledge to a new level with great support then I highly recommend checking out DL and its staff

Dronelink is an absolute godsend for both hobbyists and commercial pilots. With capabilities far beyond what is possible with native flight apps, Dronelink solves many issues that DJI cannot. I highly recommend this product, especially for enterprise drone pilots who want more out of their drone!

The tech they’ve built at Dronelink is amazing! I can’t see myself using any other flight app out there. There’s tools for flight planning anything you can dream up. If you make money with drones, DronelinkFlight is what you need. We like the Teams plan the best because it allows us to task missions to other pilots with ease. Thanks Dronelink team, keep up the great work!

Works great for Mavic mini. I did need to upgrade my phone to do more complicated mapping missions that follow terrain in the mountains. Watch the videos because they do help. I find the creator entertaining. It would be nice if I could set some defaults so when I select a mapping mission it uses the same settings. I’ve had good results using Web ODM with data collected using Dronelink to create orthos and 3D models. Not bad for just the mavic mini!

This is an impressive flying app with so many cool features. Takes a little learning but once you get it you’re addicted. I’ve only been exploring and playing with this as a hobby but I will likely upgrade to a professional version.
It’s a little unnerving at first to not be controlling the drone but it’s easy enough to take back control anytime. Highly recommend DronelinkFlight

App has been working great for me. SDK updates come out fast and the tools in it work great. Customer support has been great as well. As soon as they have updated Large Map services you won’t be able to beat them.
