Ah, glad that was fixed. I was wondering why the compass wasn't responding. Thank you.
Looking forward to a bigger update addressing the software related issues...
Good -
- Bright screen, doesn’t dim like on iOS
- Two control wheels, allowing one for exposure offset
- Two custom buttons
- Lighter weight than standard controller, especially when adding iOS device
Bad -
- AirSense is limited to 1000’, so aircraft is basically ON TOP OF YOU when it shows up.
- Screen not as responsive as with iOS, with some delay in actions.
- No quick way to quit and re-open the app if it glitches or freezes.
- New type of joystick, not compatible with older models… and can’t control without the joysticks attached (something I do for finer control)
- Less battery life than standard RC-1 (2.5hrs vs 6hrs)
- Screen recording is lower quality than with iOS
- No external display output.
- Disconnects from Wifi+Bluetooth upon launch… so maps cannot be updated while flying.
- Does not reconnect to Wifi upon landing… so flight records are not automatically synced.
Notes about the DJI Fly App:
- DJI Fly still does not allow Custom LUTs, so it’s required to either fly using their LUT (called Color Display Assist), or without any LUT (flat) while in D-Log.
- The DJI Fly Color Display Assist (LUT) causes gross underexposure of the image, wasting dynamic range.
- DJI Fly app has changed the histogram to the old (good) way, so Color Display Assist does not affect it (a good thing), BUT it still behaves differently in 5.1K. This makes it confusing when the histogram changes between different resolutions.
- The RC version of the DJI Fly app is outdated, and doesn’t have the same features as the iOS app… considerably, the AirSense ‘sensitivity’ options.
Notes about the Mavic 3 and the Fly App:
- When taking long exposures (at night), the display is extremely noisy with a magenta cast. It is not properly showing what a long exposure might look like.
