Well,  call me blind I guess.  I just finished upgradeing my Mavic 2ED...lookingfoward to panoramic photos.  Silly question...how do I set mode to take
panoramic photos...


Also,  how do I access Atti Mode?

I have been through all selections and did not find it.
Scratching my head?

Thank you

Yes...
The software went through 2 updates...first the aircraft and then the software on the remote / CrystalSky....reported back complete.  The Mav 2ED and the software worked as expected...I just can not find atti / pano mode...must be blind as a bat!

Turn on MFM, then select the desired mode: (S-P-T or S-P-A)

Thank you.  That was very helpful! I have something I can work with now.
No, I do not have the software switch available.  Guess that is why I can't find it.  It must also be true of the panorama setting and why I can not find it either.

For the record -- Pilot Software reports back "latest version"
app:          v1.6.1
aircraft:     01.01.0640 (check for updates -- latest firmware)

remote:     01.01.0410

Will any care to weigh in on why the update reported successful, yet I did not receive the feature upgrade?  DJI?
Thank You
John

You need Pilot app 1.7.0

Ok...
Now for the dumb question from the person who has computer experience dating back to DOS (!).  How do I get the silly thing to update through the onboard software?

Or, more importantly, I do I force an update when it is telling me it is up-to-date from the remote?

Thank you very much for your help!

You have to download from here: https://service-adhoc.dji.com/do ... 0-b09e-45a82d31ce83

Then install the .apk manually by clicking on the downloaded file.

Ok
Thank you very much for that.  I had kinda came to that conclusion, however, I was hesitant of doing that w/o verification.

I was under the assumption (ahem) that the Pilot updated when I executed the two-part update last night.
Apparently, the Mav 2ED and something else updated, not the Pilot app.  I thought the Pilot App updated.  My fault.

I had started downloading the 1.7.0 update when you replied to my "confusion"   Thank you for pointing that out
to me.  It is appreciated.

I will let you know how things turn out in a little bit.

I do have to wonder why the Mav updated last night with two parts and then
leave the pilot app to be updated as something you have to do for yourself.

Am I missing something?

Bingo...Update took...I have both features and right where I thought it would be.
I really appreciate your assistance!
Thank You
Take Care

Does this firmware update in any way effect the height restrictions or change any height limits?  Is max altitude reset to 120m in this update?
