Enable China mapping on DJI Go?

What actually will happen if I enable this setting? I can find no details about this.

BTW, I will be flying my P4 in China. Today in a few hours I will go buy it.

I can only guess. Might use something other than Google or Apple maps.

It will offset the position of your GPS to work with the chinese coordinate system. Basically, your GPS wont be in sync with your actual location any more (unless you are actually in china):

You mean this offset is based on Google maps data?

No - I mean that the GPS location itself is offset. So if you switch it on, it wont line up with what you see on google maps any more (unless you are in china).
