I'm new at this.  I just flew my PH3 standard the first time this morning.  My problem is I cannot figure out how to set the course lock mode.  I watched the video on dji web site.
This is what I did.  I turned on the drone and the RC.  I connected wifi from my iphone to the RC.  I started the dji Go App and did the automatic take off in P-GPS mode.  Once the drone was hovering, I moved the S1 switch down to 'F' mode.  According to the video, I should receive message on the Go App to tap to enable multiple flight mode and then select course lock.   When I move the S1 switch to 'F' mode, I get a message on the Go App that I cannot change flight modes.  I'm sure there is a simple process to get into course lock but I don't know how.

Might need a minimum altitude (40 feet or so, I think).

I tried that.  Before I took off the drone, I went into the advanced setting on the Go App and turned on multiple flight setting, then I did a take off and hovered the drone.  When I moved the S1 switch to F mode I did not get any message on the Go App.  However, the Go App did tell me in a voice message that I was flying in Atti mode.  I'm am not experienced and Atti mode scared me, so I immediately landed the drone.  Do you think maybe my problem is I need to upgrade the software in the drone and the Go App?
