Hi guys,

So been thinking about an idea, 'Modes'.

How good would it be to have a preset mode or setting within the dji app / controller memory / drones memory etc, where it would remember ALL of our settings?

You know when there's an update, or you change a setting and forget about it, or remembering something when you're lying in bed and think 'yea, il change that setting tomorrow / next time I'm ready to fly', but then we forget?! (I do this a LOT ). Yea, how about an option where we can just set all of our settings and save them.
Examples...
- When we change something we get a promt 'You're about to change X setting, do you wish to save this to 'MODE 1' or Create a New Mode?'.
- Or say we're about to survey a house and we need to switch to a slower mode, RAW photo's, 4k 60fps, certain white balance, etc.... 'Mode 2 - House'.
- FPV Go crazy flying fast - Want it to be in manual mode, with auto recording on take off, dng/raw files turned off - jpg turned on, 1080p 25fps = 'Mode 3 - FPV Crazy'.
- Showing Grandma the drone, need it to be super slow, not zoomy, not raw/dng files - just jpg = 'Mode 4 - Fam'.
- Oh, that waterfall would look amazing in slow motion.... 1080p 120fps, raw/dng files = 'Mode 5 - Slowmo'.

Sure there's many other settings you can think of that would be useful to press all at once, instead of changing it one by one etc.

What do you think?

Except for the prompt every time you change something, sounds like a great idea.
An option to save/restore settings would do the trick.
Firmware updates might break old settings backups if things change too much, but if they are saved in something like XML then we could fix it on a PC etc.
