Can you set the DJI Mini 4 Proto record whenever the drone is on?

I, foolishly, forgot to hit the record button on my last flight and wanted to review the footage. Well, as the title implies, it would be nice if the drone recorded always.

I have a ginormous memory card in it so it's not like it would fill up in the next few hours of flying.

I'd hate to accidentally forget again.

Can the drone be set to record always, unless paused, like the dash cam on my car, or is that a pipe dream?

Remembering to screen record is also a handy backup to supplement your video recording.

This one works for me:

Just add a second line for "Turn on Video Recording"

It's one of the great things about the Avata. Turn it on and it starts recording. I think there is an on/off in the menus but I'm not sure. Dunno why they don't offer that as an option on other drones.
 
Now I need to look up how to turn on screen recording.
1. Back Button + Video Record Button
2. Or swipe down from the upper right corner to reveal the menu, one of which is Screen Recording.

Finding them after is fun, too! LOL!
 
This is something Litchi app has offered since its inception on the phantom 2, ive asked DJI loads of times on the forums for the auto record feature but it never got implemented, yet as you say the Neo and Avata has the function.
