    Mavic will not connect

    Yep. I actually just figured that out last night. I needed to unplug the cable connector for the phone and then the mavic will connect.

    Mavic will not connect

    I thought I had it figured out last night. I connected the remote to the mavic with the USB cable. I guess it didn't get activated the first time I did this even the firmware update went through. Anyway, the mavic connected last but it did not connect tonight when I turned everything on to...

    Mavic will not connect

    I attempted to do my first flight today and my mavic will not connect. After searching for possible reasons, I am guessing it might be because I cannot download the dji assistant 2 on my new iPad mini 4. After I download the exe file, I get a message where to put it in my iCloud Drive. The...

    New Pilot Tablet Question

    I did a little bit more sniffing around with this issue. Come to find out, the Go app has to be used in landscape mode but there is another app (Rotation Control) that allows you to use your full sized tablet in portrait mode.

    New Pilot Tablet Question

    That's interesting that you mention the Go app might not work in portrait mode of the iPad. I had not thought of that and I don't remember ever reading that anywhere. I guess I will wait to hear something from someone. If not, I am going with the mini 4 because I know it will work.

    New Pilot Tablet Question

    I am picking up my new Mavic tomorrow and need to get a tablet for the remote. Is anyone using the 9.7" iPad in the remote device? Everyone seems to be using the iPad mini 4. The regular iPad is 6.67" wide and the iPad mini is 8" long, so the regular iPad should fit without an adapter.

    Wouldn't you be able to use the 9.7" ipad turned up-and-down (portrait) in the controller and have it fit as well as the mini turned sideways (landscape)?

    New Pilot Tablet Question

    The new iPad 9.7" has ios10. I believe the older iPads were roughly 12", so the new 9.7" might fit the controller better. If it doesn't fit better, I will go with the mini. The mini is $100 more though. Hopefully, Best Buy will let me take the controller out of the box and try a couple of...

    New Pilot Tablet Question

    What about the new iPad 9.7" with A9 chip? Will that work with the Mavic?

    New Pilot Tablet Question

    I just purchased a new Mavic from my local Best Buy and need to go pick it up. I also need to get a tablet for the remote while I am at Best Buy. I think I am going to stick with an Apple product and I have looked at the list of required devices on the Mavic website. Does the tablet have to...
