I have P3 standard. It's a good device for shoorting however there is one drawback and that is, the camera control and the aricraft control are coupled. That is, to move the camera to sides, we need to do Yaw on the aicraft (the pitch control of the camera is decoupled, though).
I'm wondering if there is any way to program the aircraft (using GPS signal), so it could fly autonomously a certain path (for example, flying on a circular path)

Ok i have now upgraded to the newest firmware
But how do you specify the flight route and orientations? i don't  see any panel or new button for it in the DJI Go app even in the Map view.

again amin67r, did you read the post by sploodge? the link is above.

quickly:

if all is up to snuff with firmware, which i guess it should be on the P3 Standard
update your app
(with your device connected to the rc & rc connected to the P3) in the app, under MC Settings/ Advanced Settings turn on multiple flight mode.
launch your P3 into the air, hover somewhere safe...
then on your rc, switch the toggle switch to the F position

you should now see the new features dialog box pop up
edit: here is the link to the DJI video tutorials for the Standard

Thanks for the prompt reply, but then thing is that in my RC there is no such a switch. I'm not sure if you have seen this new RCs, it's quite different from prevous versions. There are only two switches at the corner of the RC and that's all.
