I live in Denver Colorado but traveling around in Australia with my Mavic pro. I use a galaxy s7 with android 7. On MULTIPLE occasions down here and in the states the Go4 app just dies during flight. I start it up and get things going again but not a good feeling when this continues to happen. Yesterday while flying over the ocean I get a "aircraft disconnected" signal not a "reception gone or reception weak signal". The app continues to run and the mavic anounces it is coming home. When I have a picture again it is flying right into a tree and the screen goes black. Morning the loss of my mavic for a minute I look up and low and behold the **** thing is about 100 feet above me. So most likely obstacle avoidance saved my aircraft because of my stupidity of not setting the go home altitude high enough.
That said ..... I still can't believe the go4 app crashes so much and now these new aircraft disconnected messages. The only time I've seen that message is when I power down the mavic and then the controller says aircraft disconnected. It's just unacceptable.
I've managed to get some incredible shots of Sydney and the beaches etc about 5 hours north.
Questions:
1. Does DJI concentrate on IOS and view Android as a pain in the butt?
2. Anyone on IOS experiencing these issues?
3. Should I consider a third party app?
Thanks for any help and advice.
