Ran a light painting mission to compare On Board Waypoints vs Virtual Sticks. I used my old Phantom 3 Standard running Litchi for the On Board waypoints and my Mini 3 Pro running Dronelink for the Virtual Sticks. The mission path was created using Google Earth Pro then imported into Litchi and rotated using @DJ Wes's Mission Rotator. The Litchi mission was exported into Dronelink so that the Mini 3 Pro could fly the mission. Both drones flew the exact same mission.
I used my DSLR on a tripod to do a long exposure of the drones flying the waypoint missions.
Here are the results. The first image is the path flown on the Phantom 3 standard and the second on the Mini 3 Pro. There was no post processing done on either image.

If I fly the mission on the Phantom via Dronelink (virtual Sticks) I get similar results to the Mini 3 Pro image. There is a huge difference between On Board waypoints and virtual sticks for this kind of application.
