Hello,
I am preparing for my first flight on the second-hand Mavic 2Pro with smart controller I acquired recently. But before taking off (the weather in Belgium does not allow it now anyway) I want to be sure I get everything right and that I know enough of this configuration to have a safe taking off. So sorry if some of my questions appear to be (a bit) stupid for some of you
I have been flying a Mini 1 and now a Mini 2 for some time, so it is not the flying itself but I have some questions for the initial usage of the M2P specifically.
So sorry for the bunch of questions, but I will list them all in one time:
1. I bought it second-hand so the first owner did activate it on DJI, do I have to activate again?
2. I cannot find the right usage for the different memory locations and the different SD cards: both the M2P and the SC have internal memory (although quite limited) and a slot for a SD card. What is stored where and how to configure that properly so that I can easily copy the pictures and videos to my laptop? With the Mini 2 one does not have that 'problem': it is just one SD card on the aircraft which stores all stuff.
3. As the SC does not have a SIM card, how can I load the satellite view maps? I suppose I will have to take a smartphone with 4G with me and configure it as a hotspot, but that is also completely new for me, so in that case I will have to figure out how that works on my phone.
4. Both the aircraft and the SC ask me to be updated, is there any disadvantage of doing that (newly introduced bugs etc)?
Thanks for reading my topic and for replying to it!
