Mini 4 Pro waypoint mission planner

MavicMapper plans native DJI Fly waypoint missions for the DJI Mini 4 Pro – orthomosaic and 3D mapping, POI orbits, façade scans, cinematic video paths, panoramas and hi-res footprints. Free, offline, for Windows. Every calculation uses the Mini 4 Pro’s own camera (1/1.3in CMOS, 48 MP), wind limit (10.7 m/s), waypoint speed (12 m/s), gimbal range and battery.

Mini 4 Pro in MavicMapper

Two photo modes of one 1/1.3″ camera: 48 MP (≥ 5 s interval) and 12 MP binned (2 s interval).
Wind rating 10.7 m/s – the planner warns earlier than for the 12 m/s aircraft. Waypoint legs ≤ 12 m/s.
Plus battery: 45 min rated – raise the usable minutes.
Sub-250 g; Plus battery: 45 min rated.

Values from the planner’s own tables (DJI spec sheets; minimum intervals and file sizes are planning values).

Ground resolution (GSD) and footprint by height

GSD = sensor width × height ÷ (focal length × image width). Footprint per photo below each value.

From plan to flight

Draw the area, place the POI or the wall line on the map and pick a preset.
Check the 3D preview – it replays the real mission file with speed, stops, gimbal moves and photos.
Export the KMZ – one mission per battery.
Upload over USB to the controller (guide) or import by hand (guide).
Set the camera in DJI Fly from the summary and fly within visual line of sight.

Frequently asked questions

Does the DJI Mini 4 Pro support waypoint missions?

Yes – the Mini 4 Pro flies native waypoint missions in DJI Fly. MavicMapper writes them as DJI WPML KMZ files and can upload them over USB to the controller.

What GSD does the Mini 4 Pro reach for mapping?

With the Wide 48 MP (48 MP) the ground resolution is about 1.05 cm/px at 60 m, 1.39 cm/px at 80 m and 2.09 cm/px at 120 m above ground.

How fast can the Mini 4 Pro map with continuous capture?

At 80 m and 75 % front overlap the photo spacing is about 21.2 m. With a 5 s minimum photo interval the camera allows about 4.2 m/s; the planner also caps waypoint legs at 12 m/s and checks motion blur for your shutter.

Which camera modes can I plan with on the Mini 4 Pro?

Planner cameras and photo modes: Wide 48 MP (48 MP), Wide 12 MP (12 MP). Set the same mode in DJI Fly before the flight – a waypoint file cannot switch the lens or photo size.

Is MavicMapper free for the Mini 4 Pro?

Yes. Free, no account, no subscription, runs 100 % locally on Windows.
