Waypoint interference?

flying my Mavic 3 Classic with the RC-N1 (i think) controller. I have attached an adapter that allows me to use an iPad as a screen. (See attached)
When flying waypoints missions, i have been getting “signal lost” messages and in one case, it flies the mission (video) but then stops the route at the 2nd to last waypoint.;it is not far away and within line of site when this happens. It usually keeps flying the route but the screen may freeze for a few seconds (seems longer) until it resumes “broadcasting”. Except for the example mentioned above, photos and videos are uninterrupted.
My question is- have any of you had a similar experience when using an adapter like this or when flying waypoints with the M3C? Im wondering if the adapter is interfering with signal. Have not had this problem when flying any of the mini series drones.
Thanks!

I don't think its the adapter at all but just for kicks If you run the mission sans adapter does it do the same thing? Where are you flying anything near that could interfere?

I havent tried it sans adapter just because its a pain (for me) to take it off and put it back on. Fine motor control problems with fingers
 
or take the Drone to another place and see if the problem persists there. if so get rid of the adapter. Plus Remember if you are flying with the drone "in front" of the pad ( where the signal has to pass thru the pad) it could be that you need to keep the rear of the controller pointed more precisely in the drones position.
