Does anyone have a short cut to updating the home point? I fly from moving boats quite a bit and need to update the Home Point often. I don’t like being distracted from flying and video too much. Setting the Home Point takes a few screen touches would be great if I could program the Button on my controller.
 
I don’t know about a shortcut for resetting the home point, but when flying from boats I do set the lost connection setting to hover instead of RTH. Definitely don’t want my $2+k drone trying to go back and land on a boat that’s no longer there if connection is lost. 😝

I believe the Litchi control app has a dynamic home point setting. This video at 4:40 shows the selection of an auto update dynamic home point be the controller position -wherever it is. Just what you may need.

100% agree RTH to a place where the boat has left the area. I had thought of that setting for Hover. I'll use that for now. Still would like to have an easier way to update Home Point. Thank you.

Thank you. Heard plenty about Litchi, but have not tried it.
