Thankyou tmoerel, I think I undersrand what you are saying. I will try this out once I feel more confident to fly the drone. :)

Still not flown my new Mavic but if the range of flying with phone wi fi is max 80m and controller flying is circa 4.3km, does one fly by controller for distances beyond 80 metres and blindly operate camera button, or can one still see what camera sees at these distances?
