Interesting in that I have a Note 20 Ultra, and have no problems using it with the controller. Nice and bright, but with an Otterbox case, it simply won't fit in the phone cradle of the controller. I wound up buying a cheapy Moto G for dedicated use on the drone. Not as bright a screen, but...

The most ridiculous example of "people are saying..." AKA, the Fox "News" headlines that scream "Critics are saying that [insert anything any Democrat does or says] violates the [insert First or Second Amendment]." It then goes into the echo chamber, and "poof!" Alternate facts.

Wifi and other RFI from the very busy areas below could explain part of this. Try it in an area with no businesses or homes around.

My phone has a compass, but the orientation symbol is hit and miss. GPS map provides similar information other than telling you which direction to turn to follow the bird. And that can be easily deduced by turning towards the orange RTH path. So is the compass useful? Sure. Essential? I'm...

The thread is asking whether it's necessary, and the answer is no. No argument. Just logic.

True, but if the drone does go down, you don't need a compass to use GPS from your phone and the bird. So I'm not seeing a requirement for a compass-enabled phone/tablet.

I'd suggest a more durable motorcycle if you expect to return home. ?

I believe local yokels do not have any enforcement authority over VLOS rules.

Note 20 Ultra here: Fly works fine.

And the app's warning gets more insistent if the manned A/C is actually in the drone's (or is it the pilot's) immediate vicinity.

Perhaps you or the mods could change the title to "drone hovers when switching ..."

Not sure I agree. I came from the orginal Mavic Air, which pretty much produced great video on auto without any tweaked settings like exposure control. The MA2 seems to be a bit more finicky, and at least some of my video shot on auto looks flat (those taken before I got the ND filter), and...

Divorce between whom?

Sure, but assuming a device has all the requisite hardware sensors and is running a recent or current version of Android, why would DJI Fly not work? Especially Samsung devices.
