Hello 2 all! After i flashed the update, in two times the tello had lost connection to the smartphone controller yesterday. It stands still in the air and no reconnect was possible. In both cases i had to wait since the battery was empty and than it landed. Hasn`t there been a failsafe protection before, in case of loosing the connection and the drone lands immedately? Have had ugly feelings in that situation...

I updated this weekend to new firmware 01.04.88.01

Fortunately, no disconnection isue happend to me. If true, I would prefer new behaviour you described, at least you have plenty of time to try a reconnection. Imagine you are flying over water or trees and Tello start an autolanding, that will end into a crash.

By the way, as others, I noticed better control under strong winds at low altitude.

Thank you for that comment Raul. Now I'm tempted to update too.

Have you noticed any other changes, good or bad?

failsafe should kick in 50s after lose of connection. It does not really land too, just hover 30cm above a surface
