Hi there @ksteem and thank you for the welcome. This community is just what I wanted to find.
You know a problem shared is a problem solved.
I've been in touch with dji about this phone compatibility problem and they assured me that they are working on it? I won't hold my breath 🤦♂️😂👍🏼
I know what you mean about getting a dji controller. It's the sensible thing to do but the iPhone 8 plus is working great. It doesn't have a sim in it so I don't get notifications mid flight 😂👍🏼
I think the thing that bugged me was the marketing strategy of dji. It was misleading.
I had to dig deep on DJI's website to find what phone worked?
The list is tiny and they often stop supporting phones that they previously supported.
Come to think of it.
It's a pretty slick way to get people to buy their dedicated controllers? 🤦♂️🤯
I must say the drone is totally amazing. I've got some incredible landscape footage of Scotland. I'll upload it when I get time to edit it.
