Yes, it is extremely annoying. Since there isn't a lot of competition left in the prosumer space, DJI are shifting their autonomy SDK features upmarket into their "Enterprise" series drones. But! There are workarounds. You can backdoor upload waypoints in DJI WPML / KMZ format to the Air 3 and Mavic 3 consumer drone series. Here's the waypoint XML format: https://developer.dji.com/doc/cloud-api-tutorial/en/api-reference/dji-wpml/overview.html https://developer.dji.com/doc/cloud-api-tutorial/en/api-refe... . This is actually surprisingly effective and works really well. https://www.litchiutilities.com/litchiToM3.php https://www.litchiutilities.com/litchiToM3.php offers an interesting workflow for this, creating flight paths using the Litchi app that's generally used for controlling drones that _do_ support the SDK and then importing them. This page also has the best documentation I've seen for the backdoor upload method.
