Gold leaves in a historic gold mining area 10-7-18 Mavic pro Edited in LR Near Cripple Creek Colorado

My home point is setting each time I fly but I still have no map details on my setup. I gave up. Go4 app is crap imo. I preferred the old app with my Phantom 3's.

Well I flew Tuesday in a new area and did the cache process beforehand at home...zoomed in and out in the area I knew I'd be flying. It didn't work. I had no map details on my screen when I flew. Just a blue dot and arrow while flying. Like I mentioned my frustration is that I never had this...

I think that is the biggest problem. If you don't have a map loaded how could you find it if it went down? Is there any other way? Does the mavic have a 'find me' function? I came from a P3P which obviously does not but I thought I have heard of the 'find me' function somewhere...?

Fully agree! This needs to be easier because many of us use offline devices. I will give this a go later when I get home. Thanks again for your help!

Hey guys/gals! First off just want to say hi to the community. I am new here but a long time pilot since the days of my P1 with a gopro...I came over from Phantom Pilots. I hate to start a new thread on this but after hours of searching I am coming up empty handed so maybe my problem is unique...
