I'm sorry I have not given useful information until now.Here we go, the next version.
The public beta on Google Play store has grown to over 250 users, which is too much, but I can't find a way to throw them out. Also I don't really get that much feedback, people are just using it to get early access to new features but don't provide much feedback.
So I'm back to publish betas here and see ow that works out. The APK is the full version but works only if you purchased the full version via play store.
This version brings a few changes in the UI:
The original Tello flightmodes up&away, 360, circle have been removed as they are obsolete with the new Autopilots, and people were confused about the duplication.
- POI lock and POIC circle now require a POI to be set before activating. Next to the home button is a new button with a little flag. Use this to place a POI to be used for POI lock and POI Circle autopilots. Press it to set the POI to the current position, press again to set POI to the home position instead. Long press to open a dialog where you can set a POI in a distance. An active POI (other than home) is displayed onscreen using the flag like the home indicator.
- The dialogs for autopilots have been replaced. You can press the + / - to change the values. Or you can move the selection up&down using pitch and change values using roll. This works also in VR mode.
- If you press POI lock Tello will rotate towards the POI and keep the heading toard POI.
- If you press POI Circle this will open a new dialog where you can enter the speed & direction, and set a timer.
- Next to POI Lock is a new Up&Away button. It opens a dialog where you can slect distance, speed, and timer.
- The Pano button now has two functions: In Photo mode it will shoot panoramic photos, in video mode it allows you to do a video 360 at custom speeds.
- There is no hand button for hand launch & landing anymore. Long press the takeoff/land button instead.
Due to weather the Autopilots have not been tested as much as I wanted. Please do not use them in long distance / high altitude / strong wind scenarios.

There is an abnormality in the part which supports the two controllers of the same name changed in the new version.
If you perform the "Search for a new controller" operation on the controller screen while connecting the wired connection controller (Gamesir t 1) inherited from the previous version, the controller will become two.
It may be your intention so far.
In that state, if you perform the "Clear" setting on the controller screen and then perform the "Search for new controllers" operation, you can locate the controller and choose either the master or the student, but the controller actually It is not connected and can not be used.
This may be a problem only with wired connections.
