I've searched the forums and I'm still foggy on the interface for the GPS and maps and how the cell utilizes the services during flight.
I fly an MA2 with a Samsung 8 and it works perfectly other than the phone is a little small for my old eyes. I understand how the updates work and use the Assistant 2 for updates at home.
When I fly I go into airplane mode so that my flight isn't interrupted.
I'm looking at tablets and will only pick one up that has GPS, I use the functionality right now as a new drone pilot.
How exactly does the interface work between the cell, controller and drone. Once I go into airplane mode I have no service, is it required to fly? If not how do you get map updates when you are remote?
Sorry if this is an obvious question, I really can't find a complete answer and want to better understand how it all comes together.
