Is it necessary to enable the “Airplane Mode” on my iPad or Galaxy S10 phone when flying my Mini. If so, why? What are the consequences if I don’t enable it?
Feedback on this and other forums does definitely indicate that you should at least turn Wi-Fi off on your mobile device - as this removes a very close source of RF interference to your MM controller.Is it necessary to enable the “Airplane Mode” on my iPad or Galaxy S10 phone when flying my Mini.

Get any mapping on your device and then you are good to go for airplane mode. It saves power. Your Android device, (Galaxy S10), will drain an additional approximately 500 mA from your controller. This can start to be an issue after 3 batteries of flight. You can mitigate this with an OTG & power bank.
