Cinematic mission
Stop nailing the same move on the fifth take. Draw a line, pick a shot, and Muninn flies a smooth, repeatable camera run — the aircraft eases up to cruise and back down like a dolly, the gimbal choreographs itself, and recording starts and stops on its own. Set the framing at any waypoint and the camera eases between your keyframes; mark several shots and each lands as its own clip. And because the whole mission runs onboard the aircraft — not streamed over the radio link like stick-driven apps — the footage stays glassy-smooth, with none of the yaw jitter those apps are known for. Every pass is framed identically, so you can re-fly a golden-hour version of the mid-morning take.
Why Muninn
Cable Cam glides a locked-off dolly line at constant altitude and heading. Reveal rises and tilts up to unveil the horizon. Fly-by locks the camera on a subject for a parallax pass. Crane runs a smooth vertical pedestal up a wall. Pick one, draw the line, generate.
Set the gimbal or heading at any waypoint and Muninn eases the camera between your keyframes — a continuously rotating gimbal, not the stepped snapping other waypoint apps produce. A subject lock keeps the camera trained on a point through the whole move, and a storyboard timeline shows the gimbal, speed and shots over the flight.
The Cinematic Motion engine eases the aircraft up to cruise and back down between waypoints — no jerky stops — with an ease-in-out or accelerate curve. Smooth-turn damping rounds the corners so the footage never snaps. Think in seconds, not m/s: type a shot duration and the cruise speed solves itself.
Mark each shot along the path and every one records as its own clip — five to eight framed takes on one battery, which is how a real-estate shoot actually works. Name them, watch each shot's duration on the timeline, and Muninn brackets the recording automatically.
Hands off the sticks and off the shutter — the mission runs onboard the aircraft, so it stays smooth. Because the pass is saved, you can re-fly the exact same shot at a different time of day and cut them together.

Workflow
FAQ
Any WPML-compatible DJI — Air 3 / 3S, Mini 3 / 4 / 5 Pro, Mavic 3 and 4 series, Matrice, Inspire 3. The cinematic moves, keyframes and speed ramping are standard waypoint behavior; older drones can fly via Litchi CSV export.
Yes — that's a core feature. Mark each shot along the path and every one records as its own clip, so a single battery can capture five to eight framed takes of a property. Name them, see each shot's duration on the storyboard timeline, and Muninn brackets the recording automatically. Automatic recording is new and flagged experimental pending final on-drone validation; if a mission ever won't start, one toggle switches to hands-on recording while the drone still flies the move for you.
Those apps fly by streaming live stick commands over the radio link, so any signal hiccup or GPS wander shows up as jerky yaw and gimbal stutter — the #1 complaint in every forum. Muninn exports a native DJI waypoint mission that runs onboard the aircraft, and eases the gimbal and heading between your keyframes, so the camera moves are continuous and repeatable.
Yes. The Cinematic Motion engine layers fluid speed ramping and keyframed camera choreography onto any mission — the real money shot is applying it to an Orbit for a smooth real-estate fly-around, or to a Freestyle run for a move that's entirely your own.
If you're paid for the footage or flying commercially, yes — FAA Part 107 is required in the U.S. Recreational flying of your own property with no compensation is not, but you still fly under the recreational rules and keep visual line of sight.
