    The “simulator” option that was in the Go app was NOT this. This is a very interesting separate program. But you have to pay a premium for all that inspection stuff and models. I am wondering what other controller they will support because they didn’t list anything older than a Phantom 4 and the M2 Enterprise wasn’t listed either.

If you are using an Xbox controller one thing to note is when you bring the analogue stick in to start up it doesn't always recognise the gesture. So us the keyboard if you need too. Keys are A,S,left arrow key and down arrow key all at the same time. Hope this helps

      On a Mac you could do the Windows 2nd partition install and have both operating systems. If I am not mistaken I do believe I saw videos of people using the remote with Mavic Pro remotes. So with a little tinkering you can run this as well.

    • @MRGJHW
      @MRGJHW 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's right! If you install the free and included Mac program called "BootCamp" that comes with your system, you can then install any normal version of Windows. Bootcamp does all the hard work setting up your hardware and software to run Windows. And it's actually easier and faster to install Windows on your Mac than a PC! (FYI: Macs actually run Unix under the hood).
      However, Ken was right in saying that you need a higher end computer to run this baby. So just like on a PC, the better hardware - the better the performance. Good luck!

    Everyone loves sales people! Great idea to that into the software experience. In this video we all experienced with Ken simulated interest followed by simulated confusion, followed by simulated disappointment, and finally simulated frustration. Perhaps the manufacture will recognize the closeness to actual interest, confusion, disappointment, and frustration it created and improve its strategy. If I had to guess, they want to know how many sweet drone pilots your huge enterprise will be training and how many 'licenses' you will need. No doubt the more juicy clumsy noobs your company has, the more of a discount you can get on bundled services like protection plans, extended warranties, and the assurance that every time you don't want to speak to a sales person, they will be right there a smile and open palm. Sarcasm aside, its clear they put a lot into it, and it probably is more than a toy and intended to train, which is a good idea for businesses.

      @@KenHeron. That's DJI shooting themselves in the foot. Think about it. Their simulator could be the next big rollout, especially for this video game generation. I wont be buying it either. Guess I'll have to get the Air 2 and fly that, for real, instead. It makes me wonder if they are keeping the simulator on the shelf for the FAA. Perhaps we will have to show that we can pass a flight test on a simulator before getting future Part 107 licenses. I suspect that that's how they would make it really hard for citizens to pass. It would be cost prohibitive. Only delivery companies like Amazon would invest in the cost of the test and software for Amazon drone pilots. So lets hope that those hobbyist pilots win their case against the FAA so regular people still have rights to a hobby that we started. Rick from Drone Valley said it best. We were here first!
