Heres a work around for installing the DJI Pilot app on devices like the iPhone 5/5C (A6 chip), iPad 4 (A6X chip), iPad 3 aka "The New iPad" (A5X chip) and the iPad mini (A5 chip).
Heres the workaround:
-Download the .ipa file from iTunes on a computer
-Top left corner of iTunes youll see a list of icons (Music, Movies, TV Shows, Apps, and 3 dots) click the Apps icon
-Look for the DJI Pilot app that you should have downloaded through iTunes already,
-Right click, show in Windows Explorer,
-Copy and paste the .ipa file to your desktop,
-Install that .ipa file through ifunbox program(I think you need your phone to be jailbroken for this part, not sure on that)...
If you do try this, please let the rest of us know how it worked out... Also play around with the settings such as hardware decode on/off, lower transmission quality, turn on airplane mode, close other running apps, basically anything that may speed the video feed up if its running slow.
UPDATE: Looks like the app struggles to run on the 1st gen iPad mini, and doesnt even connect with the iPad 3... Therefore the only devices that work with this work around are the iPhone 5/5C, and the iPad 4
