In a previous thread I stated that it would be nice to be able to automatically start a screen recorder app when FF6 starts so that I have a record of the flight if the Anafi is lost or falls out of the sky. After much searching it appeared that the Andoid "Tasker" app would do the job along with the "Screen Recorder - No Ads" app by Kimcy929. The Tasker app is not the most intuative but after many false starts and blind alleys I have managed to get it working. The video below shows the process. I recorded it using "AZ Screen Recorder" and I did not start the "Screen Recorder - No Adds" app for fear of a conflict. Please note that this has been tested on a Moto G5 and a Moto G8 Power and works although the co-ordinates of the popups varies on each phone to keep them in the middle of the screen. I have not yet had the oppertunity to test the functionality out in real life so I do not know whether having Tasker, Screen Recorder - No Ads and FF6 running at the same time will be to much for my phone. I hope to do a test hover in my garden soon.
The workflow is:-
Connect phone to SkyController3
FF6 app opens automatically
Prompt appears to enable Airplane Mode
Press OK button when enabled (if Airplane mode is not enabled then the software enters a loop)
"Screen Recorder - No Ads" app is started
Press button in bottom right of "Screen Recorder - No Ads" screen to enable floating screen recorder toolbar
Select "Fly" in FF6 (I did not have the Anafi turned on so the live view is blank)
Start screen recorder (I did not do this in the video)
Fly the Anafi
Stop screen recorder
Close screen recorder
Close FF6
Prompt appears to disable Airplane Mode
Press OK button when disabled
