    I'm a bit confused regard Litchi and lost signal

    So, what I do is to get my LItchi mission on my tablet from home (south of Baton Rouge). Then we drive out to nowhere, MS, load the mission there to the P4P and go. I have several missions I have preplanned as there is no Internet or cell data there. To their credit, DJI app does not say that...

    I'm a bit confused regard Litchi and lost signal

    The reason I bought the drone is to map damage by the Southern Pine Beetle on our family's land. The areal photo is several months old and I need to find out if there is other spots with damage or even how much this brown 'L' is growing. The mature trees are around 40' tall or so and I will lose...

    I'm a bit confused regard Litchi and lost signal

    Hmmm. What confuses me is the part "... and all apps compatible with DJI aircraft." *But* if Litchi works, I'll buy that. The only thing I can think of that they would be referring to is if you can fly your aircraft without any app; is is possible to fly it Atti without using any type of...

    I'm a bit confused regard Litchi and lost signal

    I understood that if, while on a Litchi mission, my P4P loses contact with my RC, it will continue the mission to the end. Now... Reading the P4P Release Notes regarding Firmware V01.04.0602: "For increased safety, the flight is restricted to a height of 30 m and distance of 50 m when not...

    You know, when I first got the machine I did that. However, when I tried again, I was too impatient to wait 10 seconds. Curious... is that documented?

    Stumbled upon (Overall Status)...... "Latest Firmware" Is the Firmware number some kind of secret??? Is there any reason the go app won't tell us??? Is the firmware number the same as the President's launch codes?????????

    There are a lot of apps named "ShutApp" in Google Play. Which one do you use?

    Samsung galaxy tablet?

    I just know I've got my Galaxy Note 4 around here somewhere. It is also "rooted" (as I had to do with all my android phones before the 4 for teathering). I'll give it a shot but I like the larger screen of the Tab A6.

    Samsung galaxy tablet?

    I got mine to work. First, you should dedicate the tab to just flying the drone. Second, remove all the "bloatware" apps you can. I stopped and disabled Samsung push notifications and other apps in settings too. Finally, I put the tab into developer mode (google that... It is really easy). Once...

    Samsung Galaxy Tab A Tablet

    I just got my Samsung Tab A6 7" (SM T280) to work by disabling several "bloatware" apps from Samsung, and enabling developer mode. The only other app I use is FB reader and I have a bunch of .epub books for reading. I killed notifications from gmail and google as well. Also disabled Samsung...

    Samsung galaxy tablet?

    You're a genius! So far, my Galaxy Tab A6 is operating beautifully! I just enabled Developer mode and allowed USB debugging. Since this tab is only used for my P4P, I'm not worried about security. In addition, I turn on Airplane mode before I connect to the controller. Thanks.
