Not new to UAV or quads.......My line of work has had me involved with aerial topography for many years. Now, semi-retired and tired of playing with toys, I purchased out of my own pocket, a real starter to get "back in the saddle" with........So, I do have a question or two that I haven't found a direct answer to.......Hope some one will chime in and hold my hand a just a little......lol
I just purchased a new Mini 2 SE......should be in my hands Tuesday. I've downloaded and printed a hard copy of the user manaul and have loaded the Fly app to my Samsung. Read it and watched a few DJI help vids.......but still have not found an answer to this question......:
1) Since the Mini 2 SE can be flown, with limitations, without the phone and app engared........does it still have the ability to take stills and video record without the phone being used....since everything you shoot to begin with is stored on the quads SD card, I assumed it would function like the old days (notice my avatar) camera recording and storing on-board the craft.....I'm planning on flying her for awhile, without phone/app, just to get the feel of this new technology........I possess decent, but old school pilot skills.....lol
It's not a big issue, since the app aspect is fantastic.....but I'll suffer from aging eyes and limited learning curve memory tools.....lol
2) Since this quad has many "bells and whistles" I noticed after reading through everything a few times, no mention of a "headless hold" application. Maybe DJI calls it something else.........or maybe it won't be needed. Everything I've flown in the past, the last few years, has had it, and it really has helped me with the photography aspects in windy conditions or when I've gotten my self in a jam.
Again, not a big issue if this quad's orientation tools solve that issue.......which I'm looking forward to.....!
Anyway, that's it for now...........Hope someone chimes in.....and thanks in advance for any assistance provided.
