## What is Droneception?

Droneception makes it easy to capture inception/flatland style photos with your DJI drone. The process is fully automated and your job is to fly to the location, preview the mission, and launch for a fully autonomous capture of photos using a basic algorithm.

Droneception will acquire the photos and it's your job to stitch together using the numerous methods shown on YouTube. If you have any questions about using the app or photo stitching please join our Facebook group:

https://www.facebook.com/groups/droneception

Droneception has been tested on DJI Phantom 3, Phantom 4, Mavic Pro, Mavic Air Inspire, and Spark. 

The process for using Droneception is:

1. Launch the app

2. Make sure you see the camera preview and telemetry (satellites, battery, etc)

3. Fly to your desired first shot location

4. Adjust radius and number of photos as necessary

5. Preview your mission

6. Launch mission and let Droneception take care of the rest

You can always refer to the in-app tutorial if you are uncertain how Droneception works.

All proceeds from Droneception purchases will go towards improving this product as well as many of our other free drone apps: DronePan, DroneBlocks, and DroneRepeat.

We hope you enjoy the app and look forward to seeing what awesome inception style photos you create! Please share them in our Facebook group.

### 1/5 — Mistake

*2023-12-20, version 1.0.5*

Made a mistake purchasing this app. Does not work. Mavic 3 here. I can shoot my own shot. Be ware.

Со spark создал несколько замечательных фоток

### 5/5 — MavicAir

*2020-06-06, version 1.0.5*

Funktioniert bei mir tadellos mit einer Mavic Air und einem iPhone 6S. Alle Fotos anstandslos und auch der Rückflug funktioniert perfekt, sie fliegt wieder an den Startpunkt zurück. Wechsel zwischen den Apps kein Problem. Starte mit der DJI App, dann Wechsel zu Droneception. Programm ablaufen lassen und wieder zurück in die DJI App. Absolut problemlose Übergabe. Vielen Dank für die tolle App!
