Just as a precaution I swipe away all open apps and always work with a full phone battery, my iPhone 6S has been known to shut down and reboot with the battery at 20 odd percent so I don't risk if the battery is low.

This "feature" has been added in the latest updates, and frankly it seems to me nothing more than a gimmick. A simple screen flash or sound would be sufficient. 3 seconds of black and white frozen image is not what I'm expecting as feedback from a dynamic flying device. It is simply annoying and...

Even less of an issue if you keep your thumbs on the sticks and a slight modicum of situational awareness.

Think it was five.

Is this a problem? If you are losing signal and the drone is going to RTH it will tell you. There is a big red button at the top of the screen that allows you to stop RTH. The drone will hover, then you can climb to safe height and then press RTH and the Anafi will come back at that height...

Quite a few models of iPad don't have onboard gps. So you will not get a green gps signal show up in the app. Mine is the same, but I successfully used it to mission plan and fly using the flight plan without the controller. Once it is WiFi connected to the drone and the mission waypoints are...

I think the edit screen is way too cluttered on iOS. It is essentially the active screen for flight rather than a specific edit screen so on a phone, editing is a complete pain.

Now that I have flight plan and have tested it a couple of times with success, I'm very keen to use my iPad to create and edit flight plans and just download them or share them to the app on my phone for use. I kind of expected creating one in my account on the iPad, it would show up in the...

Yeah got it here in UK. Instantaneous on confirming the purchase, which suggests it was already downloaded in the app. So why so long to make a simple unlock available? Strange.

Wasn't aimed at you really, it was aimed at the forum and reviewers generally, I've seen so much talk of lightweight questionable build quality etc. Sorry if you think my readingcomprehension is poor. It's my age.

Feel cheap? I bought a lightweight chronograph watch recently. Made of titanium. So light it "feels cheap." Hollow glass bead filled carbon fibre is a material I have never touched in my life until I got the Anafi. So light it "feels cheap". Perhaps we should reserve judgement on build quality...

There is definitely a sequencing issue with iOS. I usually connect to the controller which starts up the app, turn on the Anafi and then have to close the app, confirm the WiFi in settings and re-open the app before it will see the drone. Niggly problem but it has become second nature after so...

Technology cannot stand still, there will always be a better next "thing" just around the corner. The secret is to enjoy the thing you have and recognise it for what it does, not what it doesn't. Many of us can not afford to buy the latest iteration each time something comes out. I have a tool...

Looks like they've been paying attention to the obvious glitches and problems that have been raised here and elsewhere.
