Your call: hype or real?

The details
- Waypoint Flight: plan a route with points on a map, link it to a point of interest, and see distance and estimated time.
- You can use zoom while FocusTrack is following a subject.
- The RC Pro 2 controller now works with the Avata 360; both aircraft and controller need updating.
