Updated my IPhone and now it’s got a usb C connection. My Mavic Air had a lightning connector. Im not aware of a cord that goes from the controller (not sure what that connection is) to usb C. I bought a cheap Usb A to usb C cord and plugged that into the controller in the usb A slot (between the phone holder arms) and then to my new phone. I thought all was well. I can take off and fly ok but when launching I don’t seem to have any control on the ascent/decent….after I start the motors and throttle up, the drone doesn’t respond to up or down until it’s 30’ or so in altitude. Also when I hit the RTH button the drone impressively landed exactly on the landing pad but as soon as it touched down it launched itself again into the air without any inputs from me. Seems it doesn’t really take the controllers input for up/down. If I do manage to get it to land it doesn’t want to shut off either. Is there a proper updated cord that I should be using?….that has a usb-C connection? Or is this not the problem? Nothing scarier than a ascending drone thats not receiving inputs. TY
