My 4 top new functions inc the smooth zoom and why it's better than just cropping

Ian in London · Aug 13, 2020

I have to admit to being pretty chuffed with the pressies rolling off the update treadmill this week. Very happy with the new zoom which is way better than a simple digital cropping zoom; I go pixel-peeping and am mighty impressed. Also show the fn+gimbal wheel trick get smooth zoom rather than jumping from 1x to 4x in one step and go through the new battery countdowns.

All in all, a great set of new functions..... Just need waypoints and we're there!

Long video, so here are the jump points:
How to Update: 1:12
Sideways Safety System: 2:36
Battery Countdown indicators: 6:25
Advanced Gimbal Controls: 8:47
Digital Zoom: 11:30

Cheers

Excellent review of the functions and thank you!
Have you viewed how different the FPV is now too? This could (maybe?) be of help to the other thread (which I can't find) where the guy is saying it's flying almost like it's in FPV mode. Start watching at the 2:20 mark.

Thanks for the video. With ~ 10 hrs of flight time I’m now interested in learning, so I can do more than just fly around taking random videos and photos of uninteresting stuff! (Although that is still fun too ...)
