First I would like to state how wonderful my experience is with the Mini 4 pro. I had a Spark before, but the mini experience with the RC2 is just phenominal. So i am taking it slow, processing all the telemetry on the screen , activating hover, RTH. flying short distances and back. so today I went a little further and i do not know if i pressed something or what.....but the home point icon disappeared on the screen of the RC2. oh I could have tapped the map mode and gotten back, i did not I flew back using landmarks. unfortunately i was not capturing the screen. oh yeah another issue RC2 said my memory card was too slow. has never said that before

Been going on since the December update. I'm happy more people are starting to report it, as DJI needs to get this fixed!
It involves the homepoint, although it seems the firmware still knows where the homepoint is, and will auto return, after more than a month with no firmware fix, its undermined my confidence in the whole setup. Basically its taken a lot of the fun out of flying the Mini 4, which is crappy because when it was working properly prior to the December update, the Mini 4 Pro and RC2 combo was a technical marvel, and with the ocusync 4, utterly amazing to fly!

I agree with you 110% on everything you have said. also like i stated the map view seemed to have the home point. just kind of clunky to have to switch to that to get home or keep switching back and forth lol.
also like I mentioned about the error message on the display, sd card too slow, was not slow till after this last update, then after the update says sd card slow. I assume it means the card in the RC2? both the drone and the RC2 have the same card.

What cards are you using? I used to use the radar map with the home point in the center and the drone around the outside edge before the AR homepoint came to be, but for flying in low light the AR homepoint is much better.

My air 3 no longer vocally says home poing now updated. DJI support told me that it no longer needs to do that, which I find hard to believe. The support man discussed with his team and said you no longer need this to be done vocally and I could do it manually. He acted like the vocal home point notification was going to be discontinued, again hard to  swallow this explanation. Any one else experience this?  thsnks

I turn my volume right down so I don't have to listen to it chattering away, lol. I will say home point updated was the one useful thing it vocalized. I've learned to not take off till it has a satelite lock, and shows home point updated.
