    $49 Huawei Ascend XT2 aka Wunderphone = THE best Mavic screen EVER

    And flying your Mavic doesn't require service on the phone.

    I'm pretty sure you can still go on wifi with it without a service. I do that with old iPhones that I give my kids.

    And just to confirm, carrier is kinda irrelevant anyways, being it doesn't need to be activated for it to be used a controller, right?

    Elate or XT2, that is the question. Is there any advantages of one over the other?

    I totally need to get this phone. Along the same topic, are anyone using the Elate made by Huawei? I have found a few local WalMart stores that sell that instead, and besides it being white, I can't find any other differences.

    Dynamic Home Point question?

    Thank you all for your comments. I think I finally understand it. I'm not new to the Drone world, I've owned Drones since the original Phantom, but I was just a bit confused with the DHP setting in the update. Was a bit of a brain fart I guess :) Would much rather have an understanding, as...

    Dynamic Home Point question?

    Also, its my understanding that the controller itself doesn't have GPS, correct? So prior to the update of the addition of DHP, if one was to select return to controller, how does the Mavic know where the controller is?

    Dynamic Home Point question?

    I think I am starting to understand. So basically, if you are in active track, its a good idea to use DHP if I am a good distance from my starting point. Correct?

    Dynamic Home Point question?

    I guess I am still confused lol. Ok I am on a boat. I set my RTH via my home point settings to my controller because I'll be say a mile from my original location. I want it to return to where my controller is because that's where I am, and it returns to my in my new location. Done. But why...

    Dynamic Home Point question?

    I guess where that's where I'm confused. If I know I am going to be on a boat or canoe using Active tracking, wouldn't I just want the Mavic to return the controller? What benefit is DHP over just returning to the controller via the RTH setting?

    So excuse my ignorance, but are people getting this phone without activating it? And using it simply for the Mavic? If so, that's brilliant! I have the iPhone X, but hate having to take it out of the case all the time due to not fitting, in addition to the smaller screen (I came from a 7 Plus)...
