Auto takeoff from hand launch

[BorisTheSpider]

Hi I've been hand launching a bit but it's hard to do the CSC to start the motors with the mavic in one hand and the controller in the other.

Has anyone used auto takeoff (swipe to takeoff in the app) when hand launching that can confirm it's OK and doesn't do anything wierd?

wow, first thread that I have an answer to. I'm new and have only been flying for about a week, but I've been doing this with no problems at all, so I'd say you're all set

Found a YouTube video showing that the Mavic will take off when the props are spinning with a little shake:

Both hand-launching and catching is that easy if you attach a lanyard to the remote. I always do the launching by applying CSC while the remote is resting on my breast, secured by the lanyard.
