It's $15 for the basic app. If it really works (and people have done a LOT of testing), IMO it's worth it. I look forward to testing it out over the next week.

Dear Pilots,
I have installed this configuration file and the changes became effective without a hitch. Here is what I have observed in an iPhone 5s that was recently updated to iOS 9. I have used this device often as a backup to my iPad and have never experienced video degradation and seldom loss of signal. After this configuration change and leaving the channels selection on 'auto' instead of 'manual', I have noticed intermittent but significant video feed degradation and several instances of 'loss of signal' despite having full HD and RC signal strength. RC control of the aircraft was never compromised. Again the other variable here is the iOS update. Thoughts?
Many thanks in advance.
*UPDATE* Seems like iOS 9 might be the culprit so I am updating to 9.0.1 now and will report back.
*Update* (09/24/2015) Updated the OS and the video problem persists. I'm assuming that the forum members that have installed the 32 channel configuration option did not experience the degradation as a result of that change. Is that a safe assumption?
Many thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Albert

I have been flying lately on channel 32 because I've never seen any traffic there. Today I was flying with wifi on my tablet enabled for the first time (and tethered to my phone). And it worked perfectly, no interference or degradation of signal even well beyond 2 miles. I am sticking to channel 32!
I upgraded to 2.3 Android and my 32-channel file was still there and functional. Glad it worked for you too.
Has anyone in the UK ever go this channel hack to work on an Android device? I've followed the instructions and still can't access custom channels.
I've seen that you can change location on your Apple device but is there a similar workaround for Android?

UK or Uganda does not mater which country u r you need to set your android tablet default settings to US and then it works.
Cheers. I've looked all through the settings on my Android device (LG G3) though and can't see how to set it to US?
You little beauty! That's sorted it. Many thanks.
Now I just have to suffer the indignity of US spelling.
So basically what i've noticed was that even if you do a 32 channel hack, it will show 32 channels in your app. However, if you pay attention you will see that your "current channel" will bounce only between 13-20 channel which makes me wonder of use of other channels. Aren't they redundant in this case?
You have to choose Manual selection. If you do not, Automatic will only select channels between 13-20.
