You can cache it before flight.

I can't be the only person with a good side cable. The first part gets done anyway. The last three steps for most aren't necessary as they probably aren't in low power mode. So switching to airplane mode, and double tapping home to close out apps is not a lot of work. It's pretty clear that...

So I have the 6S+ as well, and this is what i do before each flight and haven't had any image transmission errors since doing these steps: It may not work for everyone, but as soon as the transmission error came up I did a little research and compiled these steps to correct my problem. Hope...

I have a pretty good bundle in the classified for $1050 USD shipped if you are interested. No issues, never crashed.

If I had to guess, I would say shut it down. The bottom seems to be a heat sink and should dissipate the heat away from the bird. If you leave it on it is generating heat, therefore kicking on the fan to move air through the cavity cooling the components and surface of that heatsink in order to...

putting it in airplane mode doesn't stop apps from running in the background, you would need to go into "Settings" > "General" > "Back App Refresh" and slide that off. In order to stop background apps from running. Yes airplane mode stops them from updating, but they are still running using your...

phone model? was the case on?

1st gen iPad Mini doesn't work.

I believe wifi + cellular models have GPS capability.

According to this if you tether you will pull GPS info as well. Does Tethered iPhone Send GPS to Wi-Fi iPad?

bump, for overlooking my hometown from the distance.

Ideally you are going to want a device with GPS capability, or you will want to tether to a device with an active connection or GPS capabilities. Again I use a iPhone 6S+ so it is GPS capable, therefore does not require an active connection for that function to work. I however, fly in airplane...

Well I connect to my RC at my flight location before turning on airplane mode, so that may be the case as to why I don't get that notification. I have gotten the NFZ when I change batteries, you can just hit no and continue on.

This is a good point, since the iPhone has GPS and does not need a connection for it to continue work.

The phone being secure is not the concern but the supplied lightning cable. I know you said you don't use it, but for those that do most cases don't allow for it to plug in all the way due to the case thickness. So that compounds the problem a bit. I do believe the shielding on the supplied...
