FPV Lag

[jhughes]

Sometimes my MA2 FPV lags and it usually happens when air sense detects a air craft. Please help is there anything I can do to stop this from happening? It doesn’t happen every flight but when it do it’s bad and I feel like I’m going to lose or crash my MA2 with this FPV lag

Do you have any other apps running? Anything using network access while you're flying?

 

[jhughes]

No I usually close all apps and put it on airplane mode when flying

Weird. I haven't noticed it happening with either an iPad mini 5 or an iPhone 11.

I too have experienced the live video lag / freezing with my iphone X as well. It usually acts up after 10-15 minutes into a flight even when the drone is right in front of me.

Switching transmission mode to smooth and turning off cache when recording under camera setting helped somewhat, but turning on airplane mode gave the best FPV performance for me.

Ya I haven’t seen any lag when airsence is active that’s weird.

It doesn’t happens every flight. Maybe it’s my phone, I have an iPhone 10

You can also turn off Air Sense in the app, if you suspect that is the cause.

In order to troubleshoot and find the problem you need to fly with Airsense off and compare result. I would also try what someone else said about the caching that uses processing power. It honestly shouldn’t affect it but there is no telling. Especially these days with how active apps are in background. Facebook is a big one and so is Facebook messenger. I don’t have those apps installed but they are constantly stealing bandwidth and battery open or not.

Cache being on does cause video lag on my android tablet.
