Some people seem to be happy with the latest update (with the zoom and saved waypoint system)
However this update completely ruined this drone for me for what I have been doing.
I used to like to take long hyplerlapses where the drone only moves a small distance between 3-4 waypoints.
Typically the drone does not fly far away, and I take 25 second hyperlapses that leave about 20% of the battery left which allows me to safely land.
Now with the Update, if I only select 3-4 waypoints, its only allowing me to take a 4 second hyperlapse which is both completly insufficient for my shooting needs and yet it still leaves about 80+ percent battery left when its done........why is there such a ridiculously low limit to the length of the hyperlapse???
If I select more waypoints, the maximum length of the allowed hyperlapse increases but I hate having to do this because:
1. I don't need that many waypoints and adding more creates choppier and unwanted movements
2. The maximum length of the hyperlapse does not increase in a predictable way. I was experimenting today. I created a flight plan with 10 waypoints and got an 18 second max hyperlapse. I then created a 30 waypoint flight plan and was only allowed a 11 second max hyperlapse even if I saved the plan and swapped out batteries. Yet when this hyperlapse was finished, I still had almost 50% of the battery left.....again why the limit???
This update has upset me greatly, now I have to either fiddle around with free hyperlapse mode, which is still allowing very long hyperlapses, but will end up with choppier video, or I now have to look into attempting to downgrade my software. I don't know if that is possible.
