Took my Spark on my boat with the 2.0 mod, enabled dynamic home point and flew in active track mode with an otg cable between phone and the remote. It tracked my boat fine but my home point did NOT update so when I reach 500 meter, which I had set as the distance limit, the spark just stopped and hovered. At this point I got a
battery warning and rth kicked in so the spark flew back in the opposite direction. I had deep water rigs with fishing lines at the time so I could not just turn the boat easily. Managed to cancel rth, enabled sports mode and quickly flew the spark to where my boat was and cough it in the air. The silly landing by the app is a pain in such situations, but I guess this is made for absolute beginners.
Anyhow, just a heads up in case anyone trust the dynamic home point feature. I checked my flight log and confirmed my home point never updated. I did not try the official app so not sure if this feature works in the latest app. I did not try with wifi instead of otg either.
Has anyone seen dynamic home point working with the 2.0 mod? Do take note that dynamic home point is supposed to work only in active track and gesture mode.
I also tried some of the other enabled Mavic modes earlier. Most seemed to work Ok except:
- Follow me - did nothing at all, did not work.
- Home Lock, did not work, when pulling back on the stick it returned towards a totally different point than my home point. Course lock seemed to work Ok tho.
Has anyone else tested the dynamic home point feature and the course lock and follow me modes?
