I just got my new Mini 4 Pro and took it for my first flight last night. I had the Mini 3, then went to the Mini 3 pro, and now got the 4 Pro. I discovered that the lines that used to show my flight path from takeoff until landing no longer appear on my map like it did on the RC 1 for the 3's. There was also a blue I think line, that gave me a direct path back to my Home Point on the RC 1, that no longer exists on the RC 2. Anyone know how to get this back? I've been through settings, map layers, everything up to date on both the drone and the controller before I did my first flight? Ran 2 flights, switching a battery in between them, nothing? Thanks for the help!

The RC 2's integrated screen prioritizes a clean interface during flight and saves the full flight path data for post-flight review they are no longer seen in real time.
you can see the RTH path tho.
The blue line showing the direct path back to the Home Point is only visible while Return-to-Home is active.

  1. During a flight, press and hold the RTH button on your RC 2 controller.
  2. A blue line will appear on the map, showing the straight-line path back to the recorded Home Point.
  3. The drone will then begin the RTH procedure.
 
Thanks I saw all of that. Really liked at least the quickest path home in case I think I'm too far with too low of a battery to make it. Hopefully they'll change this with an update? I'll play around with the new way a little and pay attention to locations and battery! The new vibe reminds me of a 3rd Rock From The Sun episode thought it was cool! yes I'm old!
