Why did DJI make this horrable Compass update in the latest version?
It's not logic to make the home point turn around the drone.99% of the time the home point is ME (holding the controller)
And I'm not circling around my drone.
The drone should be pointing to the home point (most of the time being ME).
To me that 's logic. Am I the only one here?

There has been a lot of agreement that the compass update is not well liked. Personally I very much like the map / flight tracking the way it is. However (for me) the simple center compass, particularly as it very reliably indicated the way the remote vs the drone is pointed, is something that I wish to see coming back into the display in a future update.

Careful you'll get the experts telling you your wrong and now it makes sense to have to choose between the directional pointer towards your drone or the map.

After a significant amount of use I think the new compass works well.  The floating HomePoint to me is not inhibitive to understanding the orientation of the drone to the HomePoint.

Oke, perhaps after long time using it's beginning to feel natural.
Still I think the Litchi way (see my attached pictures) is more logic.

You have to step a few feet away from H point  to see yourself as a blur dot . On the side of that blue dot is a smaller blue dot and that is the antenna direction so if you keep the little blue dot toward the drone in the compass you will have a better signal to the drone.
The latest Upgrade is a great help. But I wish DJI would change the little blue dot to a short line off the blue dot then it could be seen when you are closer to the H point.
