    assist with samsung galaxy s2 tablet

    I had the same problem with my Galaxy Tab A. Solved by starting the controller, hooking up the tablet, and then starting the tablet (if the tablet is already running then restart it). I then unfold the Mavic and start it. By the time the Mavic boots and connects the tablet is ready to log in...

    new tablet will not connect????

    My Galaxy Tab A (not sure which Android version) will not work unless I first start the controller, plug in the tablet, then restart the tablet. I then unfold the Mavic and turn it on. I also run tablet in airplane mode and have no other apps running.

    Beware of knock off ND filters..

    I got the Polar Pro Cinema Series Vivid Collection 3-Filter Pack and have had no problems. They are polarized neutral-density filters and do improve the video quality by allowing you to slow down the frame rate to control jittery video. Since they are polarized, before using them I looked...

    Latest firmware update problem

    Flying towards the sun definitely affects the sensors regardless of firmware version. Easy to test by turning away from the sun. You can always turn off the sensors if it becomes too much of a problem.

    I got a Skyreat tablet holder for my Tab A. Works great, well balanced, and folds almost flat to fit inside the fly more combo carry case.

    NEWBE needing help.

    To answer your questions: 1) Registration is no longer required but when it was the number could be anywhere. I put mine inside the battery compartment. 2) As others have stated; use the controller to control the Mavic. Connect your phone to the controller with a cable and put your phone in...

    Samsung Galaxy Tab A - 8"

    Perhaps your tablet memory is full so it is writing to the memory card. Check My Files > STORAGE USAGE. I do not know if this could be your problem; I am using the PC analogy of when the available RAM is full Windows will write to the hard drive. It works but much slower.

    Samsung Galaxy Tab A - 8"

    I normally do not have video lag issues. If I notice any video lag it is usually due to incorrect controller antenna positioning. I use the DJI Go 4 app (I have both the Go and Go 4 loaded on the tablet and the Go 4 starts automatically). I put the tablet in airplane mode so it does not try...

    Samsung Galaxy Tab A - 8"

    I have a Tab A that works well with the Mavic. After connecting via USB and turning on controller and Mavic, restart the tablet. The Go 4 app starts automatically with the Mavic already selected. I also have a Skyreat tablet holder that works great. It folds fairly flat and fits in the...
