what settings on cellphone?

[captain crunch]

I am going to try my first flight today. I am wondering if there are any special settings for my Samsung Galaxy note 8 cell phone. Like, should I put it in airplane mode? Bluetooh on or off, Wi-Fi on or off? What happens if you get an email or phone call when you are flying?​

Airplane mode, Bluetooth off, wifi on, kill any application that is running in memory before taking flight.

Why WiFi on?

Hi yip no wifi,just airplane mode to stop any calls or activity from your device,,and enjoy

Doesn't airplane mode stop maps from loading?

Let's clarify the point, if you turn off wifi on the phone, you can not connect to the controller either (Phantom3_XXX) The Avion Mode turns off all cellular connections (data, wifi, gps, etc) then we turn on wifi only

It will if you don't have the maps cached. Assuming you cached the maps though, you won't need any of the features that are disabled when airplane mode is enabled.

True, but the OP is flying a P4P.

Flights went great....no problems. I was getting a pop up massage that was saying something about cache full or out of memory? I was in the air, so did not pay too much attention to it. I looked for videos of how to manage and work with P4 pro videos and still pictures. All the videos talked about advanced camera settings. I just need basic use information at this point. When in the DJI go 4 app and tap on editor.......I only see 4 videos and no still pictures. I must be doing something wrong. Do you have links to basic use off go 4 app and or photo / video management. My SD card is 64 GB, so I think it is plenty big enough for 3 batteries worth of pictures and videos.

Great fun ay,yip bit unsure on p4p but I use 64gb and that is heaps of space but even though sd card never gets full (mainly delete stuff) I still find it have to click on the sd card logo to import some pictures when not displayed in editor,no idea why this happens but drone needs to be powered on to do this,here's a pic,
