    Newbie with easy questions

    I made a slight misake in my instructions. When my DJI Fly app is open, I have the phone laying horizontal and not vertical. Therefore, I meant to say that you swipe from right to left on the very right side of the phone.

    Newbie with easy questions

    I have an Android (Samsung) phone. An A21 I think. For me closing the app is easy. I swipe up from the very bottom of the screen. (SEE MY CORRECTION BELOW) That will bring up 3 buttons. The one in the middle is a square. Click on it and the app will disappear. You will only have about 4...

    Air 2S Fly away

    I'm beginning to think that it would be advantageous for Drone pilots to have an instrument rating!

    Air 2S Fly away

    Classic example of a wind blow-away. Why in the world was this thing so high up? The winds at higher altitudes are generally much stronger than on the surface. I got scared just reading this Data log!

    DJI fly app crashing on A51

    Strange! Just for the Heck of it, try turning on "Airplane Mode" first. Also, what version of the app did you get, and where did you get it?

    Quick Transfer not working on my Android phone

    Btw, I did not see a Quick Transfer Band in my fly app. I have a Mini 2 with the v1.3.0 app. But in Control I did see the dual band selection 2.4 and 5.4 I think it was. It also had a manual channel selection. I did not see anything that said Quick Transfer Band, or a slider. It gave me a...

    Quick Transfer not working on my Android phone

    I tried that just now. It still would not connect. I selected the 5.4 ghz also. And I switch to Manual channel selection. I still can not get it to work. It gets to the screen that say "Device to connect to Go Fly" and then stalls. There is no device showing to connect to. So after a few...

    How often should you format micro SD card

    When I do use the format feature in the Fly app, it only take a few second to complete. Hardly any time at all.

    How often should you format micro SD card

    I just use the Fly app to format new SD cards. Then instead of manually removing or deleting other videos one at a time, I'll just use the format feature to wipe the card clean and get it over with all at once. Otherwise it really is not necessary. But it doesn't hurt anything to do it often.

    Quick Transfer not working on my Android phone

    My phone is a Samsung Model SM-A215U. My son is having the same problem with his Android phone. I don't know the model of it but he said it was "top-of-the-line" and cost him $1,200.00. He and I both have the Mini 2 and the latest Fly app. All other funtions of the app are working perfectly...

    Quick Transfer not working on my Android phone

    I know there are other who have posted messages about this issue. But I still haven't found a good answer, or what to do to fix it. I put this on the DJI forum. 1# I've read the instructions over and over again on how to do a Wifi quick transfer from my Mini 2 to my Android phone. But...

    DJI Assist 2

    Well, I learned something new tonight. My big son taught his old man a trick. I was wondering why I could not get DJI Fly app v1.2.4 when I downloaded it from the Play Store. Every time I tried, I would get v1.2.1. I'm sure most of you know this, but I didn't. So here is what I found out...

    DJI Assist 2

    Does the DJI Assist 2 app work with the Mini 2? If not, is there a way to install firmware from a PC? I do the automatic update on the controller, but all I get for the latest Fly app is v1.2.1
