Hello all,
Just got my M2Pro delivered yetsteray, came earelier than expected, so excited about the new toy...
I have a couple+ of questions, hope you guys can help and thank you in advance for your valued input:
Before my first flight, do I really need to calibrate IMU and Compass? I used to do that with my previous Phantom series as "preventive maintenece" and making sure it's safer, never had an issue but...
Now, I'm reading everywhere you are not supossed to do that unless the software / indication lights prompts to do so or pherhaps if you travel like 50 miles from your previous location, nor I can find any reference on the Quick Start Guide about this.
Does this count when the unit is brand new out of the box? this thing came from China so not very confidnet about the first flight without doing this even when not prompted.
Also, does the Mavic 2 have Dual Compass and IMU? I don't see the redundace in GO 4 app like on my previous Mavic showing two bar graphs, now it only shows one for IMU and one for Compass. It would be a huge disapointment without redundance as it makes it a lot safer, am I missing something here?
Last but not least, is Fixed Wing mode still available? I l loved that feature from Mavic 1, I'm yet to fly it for the first time, only updated the firmware on both controller and aircraft and played with the settings but didn't see this mode available (at least without flying it)
I appreicate your feedback
Best regards,
FC
