Troubleshooting

I cannot select my drone/camera - PIX4Dcapture Pro

In some situations, selecting a specific drone or camera when creating a mission may not be possible. This article outlines the potential causes and available solutions.

 

Problem description

A specific drone or camera cannot be selected when creating a mission.

Drone not available to select

Cause

When using a smartphone or tablet to select a drone, those that necessitate an APK installed on the controller will not be displayed. (a compatibility list is available here: Supported drones, cameras, and controllers - PIX4Dcapture Pro).

This applies to the following DJI Drones:

  • DJI Mavic 3E
  • DJI Mavic 3T
  • DJI Mavic 3M
  • DJI Mini 3
  • DJI Mini 3 Pro

Solution

Install the PIX4Dcapture Pro APK on a supported controller and select the drone. For detailed instructions on downloading and installing an APK, refer to this guide: How to install the app on Remote Controllers with Screens?(APK) - PIX4Dcapture Pro.

Camera not available to select

Cause

When using drones with a thermal camera (DJI Mavic 3T, Anafi USA, Anafi Thermal), only the RGB camera can be selected.

Solution

Select the RGB camera instead.

Note: At the moment, it is not planned to enable support for thermal cameras.
