Charging Phone from Controller

[swooshdave]

Anyone else notice this setting isn't persistent? You have to turn it on each time. It's getting annoying.

Yep, same here.

Yes I wish it would stay on. OTOH I see people with MM complaining about it staying on with Android devices.

Same here on my iPhone too. I have made it part of my pre-flight checklist.

My mavic air rc charges my s8 cabled and this actually cycles the rc charge which depreciates the life cycles rc charging. Good thing s8 isnt current hungry. The os7android seems to enable usb debug for the rc cabled s8, maybe better bandwidth?

I’ve noticed the opposite with my iPhone. Had to turn it on the other day as phone battery was running low, forgot to turn it off, and when I went to use it the next day it started charging my phone which reminded me to turn it back off.

This is in the manual. It can’t be turned off for Android (Google limitation) and it needs to be turned on manually each time for iPhone.

That I haven't seen. It's always off when I come back with my iPhone.

Thanks, I knew that. I was just whining.

Not only that. The remote ID and UUID settings are always set to on whenever we restart the device.

All the above and a solution.

It seems to use quite a bit of Iphone battery too. Maybe it's just my phone.

No, mine goes dry fast too.
