Anyone feeling lucking? Tomorrow is "the day" as they say. No update still on the iOS sdk though, so that's unfortunate. Hoping to expand the abilities of my Air 2S very soon.

Is there any notion of what the expanded feature list will be? It seems that waypoint support is a major item on many pilot's wish list.

Also, what are the chances of being able to upload a waypoint mission to the drone, rather than control it from the RC? I'm not quite up to speed yet on the differences here - assuming that "virtual sticks" means that the commands reside on the controller or attached mobile device and are sent to the drone via "virtual" stick movement, vs. uploading to the drone firmware and operating more directly within the drone itself. Is that a decent summary?

Seems the advantage of a more native mode is that the mission can continue if drone-resident and you lose connection to the RC, but the drone would RTH without completing the mission if its controlled from the RC. Correct?

The SDK (software developers kit) doesn't add anything directly to the function of the drone. It's just programming code that third parties can use to develop software and apps. We'll have to wait until Litchi, Dronelink, or someone else adds functionality for the Mini SE, Mini 2, and AIr 2S.

Does anyone have any information about the expected lead times from Litchi and Dronelink?

It's worth remembering that fully autonomous waypoint missions which continue without connection to the RC are illegal in some countries (like the UK) without a special waiver. It's always best to check before flight.

4.16 has already been released, it's been posted elsewhere on these forums. no need to talk in future tense anymore.

That is GitHub info, not final releases. See on the right side of that page it shows .15 as the latest and that is also the only download available in the developers forum.

So I've heard Dronelink is in Beta atm for Mini SE. Any news on Lichi?

Yes they do but are only supporting Android since the SDK has not been released yet for IOS and there is not ETA. The current SDK has few bugs base in Jims discussion. Check the link.
