Let's make a list of features you'd like to see added to the X-Star. If you have a suggestion, please leave a detailed comment below and I'll add it to this list.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Requested Starlink features:

Setting to tilt the camera upward up to 30 degrees (like in DJI GO)
Active exposure meter
Ability to change video settings on the fly while recording
Ability to take photo while recording video
Ability to enlarge the histogram
Landing page to honor metric or imperial settings
Display the RC battery life on FPV screen
Display the lowest cell battery voltage on FPV screen
Cache flight video on the tablet
Allow flight route to be played back (like in DJI GO)
Flight simulator
Ability to adjust stick sensitivity
Ability to adjust braking speed
ActiveTrack feature (like DJI GO)
The ability to setup waypoint missions from the ground
The ability to set a mission altitude for waypoint flights (takes a lot of time to set the desired altitude for each waypoint individually)

Requested Remote Controller features:

HDMI output (for use with FPV goggles)
Indented swivel positions (so there are major indentations for the swivel position to keep it from easily moving)
Deeper indentations in wheel so it's not so easy to turn
Standard USB 5V DC charging port
Angle USB port on the back so the USB cable is not stressed when setting the remote controller down

flight route playback like dji has

Flight video streamed to tablet cached in addition to Flight Route Playback & saved in event of aircraft loss & for operator protection from false claims.

Virtual Flying / Training mode where flights can be simulated without actual aircraft

Thought of another one.. Would love to see a standard USB 5vdc charging port for the RC.

Another one... The right input wheel needs to be much stiffer or have deeper indentations. I'm constantly spinning the wheel by accident. Mine is really easy to move.

Something similar to (but better than) DJIs Active Track.

Ability to adjust yaw sensitivity (and any of the flight axes) of the RC controller stick. I still find it incredibly difficult to smoothly and accurately pan horizontally for good videography results with the XSP, despite the "fix" for yaw included in the last firmware update (1.2.8).

This isn't really a feature, more a bug but I thought I should put it here in case Autel is listening. Please correct the missing EXIF data for the .dng RAW file format.
