After many hours flying my Bebop 2, I decided to fly my first autonomous flight with FreeFlight Pro. That day my friend was trying his Bebop 1 with my Sky Controller 2 so for the first time I was flying through the smartphone, which made me uneasy. I lost signal at about 300 meters and got a bit panicked even though I was expecting the LOS. I still need to get a better grip on setting up waypoints because seeing them on the application is very VERY different once the drone reaches such waypoints, both different in height and position. It's not that is inaccurate, it's just perception of space while seeing the google map layout. In the end it all ended well. :)
