Adjusting radar view

Tkoglin · Jun 30, 2020

Is there a way to adjust the orientation of the radar in the lower left corner?
It always shows North facing left and I would like it to show North face straight up.

I never gave this any thought before but shouldn’t North point to North, if not what is the point ?

That whole area is called "attitude indicator" it shows ...

It's required that the mobile device have an inbuilt compass for the direction to work ... if it works the north icon will rotate & always point north when you with the RC/mobile device rotate ... this to aid you to pointing your RC towards the Aircraft, you can't lock it in certain direction. If it's locked at "9 o'clock" that either means that your mobile device doesn't have a compass or that you haven't given GO4 permission to use it.

Thanks... it must be the built in compass thing. North is straight up when I fly with my iPhone but not when I use my non-cellular iPad.
