    Autopilot Beta Test

    Does the new DJI firmware issued 3/17/2016 correct the issue of RTH failure on disconnect of the remote with the aircraft?

    Autopilot Beta Test

    From the east coast, AF works with new DJI firmware with Target, Zip line, and Orbit by my testing today. New DJI firmware allows what they call POI and Waypoints, but the only way to set POIs is to fly there. Very desirably, you can save the points you've identified by such flying, and save...

    Autopilot Beta Test

    To be sure there is no confusion, the firmware version is not v 1.4, but rather 1.04. Also confusing is that the release notes on What to Test say "Updated to v2.3.0 of the DJI SDK (new beta firmware supported)." I assume this also refers to v 1.04.

    The drone crashed into treetops presumably. Pilot error (Me) re underestimating altitude of hillside slope. The telemetry data allowed me to recover the drone which is a little banged up, but clearly repairable. The "flyaway" appellation was premature. Looks like it would have flown the route...

    Nice sunny windless day in the Berkshires today. Focus, Hover, and Orbit all simple, straightforward to position aircraft. For me, the easiest way to specify where you want the drone to go or start is to go choose POI for the location of the center in orbit, the location for hover, and points...

    Going back and forth between flight school and experience, it's clear what a powerful app this is. Certainly worth the wait. Thanks Autologc. Flight school talks about setting a POI while engaged. I believe you can set this POI on the map before engagement, which seems far preferable, esp with...

    Where did Autologic say this was necessary? Is there a link to get to the Dropbox file Is there a posted link to get to this Dropbox account?

    I share your concern. I'm also not clear on whether the external GPS receiver would free you from a wired connection to the RC.
