I have never been able to get FB live to work while flying my MPP. It worked once and then never again. Never really understood why or how. It all looks like it was working on the app but then never actually broadcasted. I only knew that it didn't broadcast because FB didn't keep a copy of the video like it did that first time.

Really weird. I am sure there is a better solution than the go 4 version but it hasn't been worth the effort for me to find a solution.

Last night I DID NOT use WiFi as recommended for live stream but instead use cellular.
I also set my iPhone XR to 1080 at 60 fps..

It worked flawlessly.
Not lag or latency at all..

Thats cool. I never tried using wifi. I was always just strong cellular service. I will have to mess with it again for giggles though I just got the smart controller so I'm not in the same situation any more. I should try it with the Pixel 3 data and then again with the smart controller tethered to the pixel 3 data. :-) I mean since I have more time stuck at home than I know what to do with. :)
