Guys... For all those people having problems make sure you have a "U3" rated SD card! Most cards on the market cannot write above 10 MB/s. Initially my Nexus 6p worked fine with the class 10 "U1" card. I'm not sure if it was upgrading to nougat or mavic firmware change but I had all kinds...

DJI Go 4 keeps freezing and I have to reboot my Nexus 6p. Has anyone had that issue? I'm not sure if it's related to running the latest Android Nougat but it's made flying miserable. The other issue is the screen rotate option consistently causes the app to crash. Locking it in portrait mode...

Waiting for the home point and checking it on the map is good advice. I dont think it caused my mishap but this is what happens when you dont wait...
