    Mavic Pro video aspect ratio

    Just crop one to match the other. It took me a moment to realise they were different the first time, but it is very simple to sort them.

    DJI GO app depletes my Samsung Note 3 battery overnight

    Closes fine from the Close All menu on my phone, without leaving anything running in the background. Recently my device (Oneplus 3) updated to Android 7, and continues to work the same.

    1+3 phone suitable for Controller

    Yep that's what I use. I did get a few disconnects at first, but firmware update considerably reduced that. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using MavicPilots mobile app

    hand catching

    The best way I've found (which is now my standard procedure), is to stick out my hand under it and press "down". It will sense your hand and stop, rise a little, but if you keep it there it will think "ok its all good here" and land on your hand.

    Is anyone else experiencing frequent disconnections?

    Ah! I see :) Sorry, I beleive I misspoke: I have the Oneplus3 connected to my controller, via the standard shortass little USB-C cable. Fits with case in, but I've mostly been using it without the case. Using that device as thats my daily driver phone - considering getting a device just to use...

    Is anyone else experiencing frequent disconnections?

    Yep, thats the one. So after a couple more flights: - once, I forgot to airplane-mode, went up, hovered about 30 seconds, disconnected. I looked down noticed my phone was not airplane mode so landed, power cycled everything, airplane mode on phone, then flew again. No problems or disconnections...

    Is anyone else experiencing frequent disconnections?

    Only a few days in and experienced many disconnections, hence my googling my way here. Oneplus 3 strapped on beneath. Prompted by one of y'all clever people here, I airplane-moded before connecting to the controller etc, and had a good long flight and some serious zooming about. And hovering...
