Mavic Air1 and Litchi

[Colander]

Hi,
does the Litchi app (beta, or gold?) that contains “Follow Me” mode (the one that tracks the controller) work with Mavic Air1 and if so, which app should I install on the phone?

Thx and best, C

For a brief tutorial on the Follow Mode, have a look at this link:

Thx a lot.
Do you, perhaps, know, whether will Mavic Air fly without RC Cable with Lightning Connector and I can use any USB cable?
