Hello everyone,
I got myself a used MAVIC AIR 1 (Fly-more Combo) for a sensational price. (The last "beautiful" DJI drone that doesn't come in this ugly gray like all the first desktop computers used to look like).
So far I am satisfied with the drone itself.
Before that I had the small SPARK, which is quite a difference in flight behavior, flight time and the possibilities.
Now I've noticed two things that I think are a step backwards
compared to SPARK.
I started two threads that all begin with the same introduction (but different title) so that the answers don't get mixed up,
MAVIC AIR 1 vs. SPARK - Question 2: Dynamic home point
Obviously the MAVIC AIR 1 doesn't have a dynamic home point...
This isn't particularly practical when you're on a boat and can lead to very critical situations if you're not constantly alert...
This significant step backwards compared to the SAPRK surprised me a lot and I wonder whatstupidity 
marketing decision 
in DJI development we have to thank for this, because obviously it's just a small software function in the Go 4 app - if I only have to press a software button, it can can also be done by a continuous loop in the program. Or am I wrong?
How do you deal with this limitation?
Do you really have to get used to this routine: open the three-dot menu, update the home point, continue flying...
Or are there tricks and workarounds?
