You may want to run a spell check on that page.
"Flight Indicator We filer complex conditions to give you a simple fly/no-fly indicator"

I'm an android user so can't wait. Will it be for phone and tablet, or just phone?

Would it be possible to get the planetary k-index on the app home screen too? That's a good piece of info to know prior to flying.

Can't seem to navigate around the app. Get stuck on one page and can't seem to get from page to page.

When we launch on Android it will probably just be on smartphone

We've gotten a ton of requests for the k-index/solar flare warnings. While I can't guarantee it will be included in the next release, we will be pushing that as an update in the next 30 days

Sorry to bump my own post, Txdan, can it not be used on IOS 6 for a specific reason.?

Novice Question

I have a totally lame question. I press the power button once, press it for two seconds and all I get is a flashing red light. What Am I Doing Wrong? I feel like an idiot. Thanks, Bruce

Hmm i'll have my iOS developer take a look at this, and get back to you within the next 24 hours. You should probably update from iOS 6 if you can

Hey Bruce,

Not sure if we're the right people to ask about issues with your phantom

Cheers,

Just downloaded the app, it goes to the initial screen saying "loading" then closes. I'm located in Okinawa Japan and figured that may be the cause, but also figured you may want to know.

Thanks

Not sure if something change or if it was pilot error, but the app works now. Anyway to establish a warning (vibrate, ringtone or combination) associated with the timer? Even better may be to associate the timer with the model (eg have when the user inputs P1 the timer sounds an alarm at 7 minutes and again at 9 minutes) or something similar.

Talked to my developer and he thinks we provide support for iOS 6 in our next update. Might be buggy though as neither of us have iOS 6 to test on

So right now if you tap the 00:00 it will begin counting the time your drone has been in the air. With versions 1.1 - 1.3 we plan on making a countdown timer with an alarm
