Ok I have read a few of the other posts on this topic and still could not come to a conclusion. I flew the other day and got video lag. And when I say lag it wasn't just back to the ipad mini (which is what I use) it was present on the actual footage I took off the sd card.

I was not in sport mode but was trying to fly faster and capture some video. If I slowed the drone down then all looked good, it only happens at higher speeds. I'm sure its just a setting but am looking for some input.

Thanks

How do you mean lag on the SD card? Do you mean broken up video?

As I am flying when recording on the screen it would freeze then catch up and keep doing that as long as I was flying fast. When flying slow it was fine with a steady feed. At first I just thought because of the ipad and some setting. However when I retrieved the video from the SD card it had the same exact problem. If I was going fast it would freeze then catch up, and when I went slow it was a steady feed. Hence why I called it lag because it was actually lagging.
 
Is there a record of this happening in sport mode? Happening for me but only in sport mode.

What SD card are you using? It may not be fast enough or try reformatting; it may sound weird but reformatting the sd card can fix a lot if issues.

Its the SD card that came with it so I would hope it would be fast enough. I can try the reformatting, that is easy to do. As I said earlier tonight I will post a video that shows it.
