Back to the topic: The first time you use Autopilot for a paying job, your increased skill level as a pilot will allow you to capture photos or video that is not possible with 2 sticks and fingers moving dials on the RC, PLUS your investment will be paid for from that day forward. If you are wanting to impress friends & family what your aerial camera is capable of...YOU WILL. The basic capability by DJI go app using the "F" flight mode is just that....BASIC. I have had one of my favorite sessions utilizing Autopilot by never starting my P3P props...I positioned it on a block wall aiming at a rolling hillside, autopilot engaged with "Black Box" and "continuous photos" allowing my manual camera settings to fire 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 20, 30 second intervals of the sun rise against the hill, compiling these stills into a time lapse video.
