Have you any accessory suggestions for when it all goes wrong and the drone hits the water? Floats? Retrieval lines?? I have the DJI Care pack so the catastrophe is mitigated - but you need to send them the soggy carcass! :) Thanks again for the ideas.

Don't you get compass errors when you take a drone off the boat?
I saw that you hand catch it without grabbing the MAVIC... I've never been able to do that I have to grab it tightly because when you put your hand under it and tries to run away because of the sensors.. how did you hand catch it with it laying right in your palm...
Thank you I am going to start practing it that way!!!
I did see an attachment like a handle that attaches to the body of the mavic pro on eBay.... Definitely a good option for the boat..

All you have to do is swipe to the left when you're on the main video screen and then when you're done just tap the screen again and it will go away.. the shortcut also has other functions...
;)
I know it's weird I came across at the by an accident I guess it's been there all along.. I was watching one of Billy Kyle's videos and he made it one of his tips because he had no idea was there either LOL..

A three hour tour...
Taking off from a all metal ship makes the compass give false readings and not being able to get gps on it. But as you take off just fly it away from the ship and it always finds gps again. Also when there is big waves and a lot of movement in the ship the sensors will start to make landing troublesome, so always be two when flying so one can catch the drone quick.
Dynamic homepoint only works if you got coverage on the cellphone, mine didn’t uppdate the homepoint and as the ship kept going my max flight distance activated and stopped the drone. Panic occurred a few seconds but was able to re set max flight distance and get it back.
A tip therefore is to turn of maximum flight distance if the dynamic homepoint ain’t available.

may i know what camera setting did you used and can you give tips on how you post edit them?
thanks in advance for your response.
With the dedicated symbol in the app (DJI GO 4), the new homepoint is NOT set to the location of the RC but to the location of the smartdevice (and only if it has GPS).
This because NO DJI RC has build in GPS.
Litchi has realtime dynamic homepoint possibility in FPV-mode.
