I'M AFRAID MY GREMLINS ARE BACK , I have pretty much same problem and couldn't fly this weekend with the constant total transmission losses at minimal distance and height and I'm using and iPad Air 2 in airplane mode with wi-fi turned off all latest version soft and firmware. I used to think the iPhone 6 was the issue as whenever I used it mayhem would ocurr, until I swapped the battery in the iPhone and then it worked fine a couple of times. I still believe there is some sort of incompatibility between the firm and softwares all I know is I'm going nuts.

thank you for saying that, i was thinking to get an ipad just for flying, then, i hope we need to wait and let's see if dji make an update fixing that. And sorry how did you change the battery on the iphone 6? i didn't understand..

At the Apple store. The phone batteries are good for about 2 years, I was on my third and the dreaded Apple throttling back was rendering the phone pretty much useless, since the scandal that revealed Apple was incorporating a slowdown into their firmware in order to "protect" the phone from damage due to low power, (the phone was just about useless and flying with it was impossible) they had to cut their prices of battery replacement to $30 from I think it was $75. Made my phone new again and I used it to fly once or twice since with full success. I don't know if my current issue is that or something else. I'm going to try a flight this evening with the iPad first, phone second if iPad doesn't work and if both don't I will take an axxe to the bird and cook it for dinner

I am on 11.2.6 using the iPhone8. The support team told me the iPhone 8 is incompatible with the Mavic Pro. Can you tell me what the latest is on this issue. I spent £1,000 on the new iPhone to give me a bigger screen (Previously used the iPhone 5S which I had no problems with. So you can see how disappointed I was to find I've spent my money on the wrong phone.

Dear friends of DJi support, to 5 days my AC lost the connection with the RC, I tried by all methods to reestablish this link, by RC without the Iphone, by the RC with the Iphone, I looked for several forums to try to find a solution, until which I thought it would be better to try to restore the factory default with DJi Assistant, I could not, accuse an error, I tried to update the firmware of the AC, I also could not, after loading 100% accuse an error.

I left several messages in this forum and only one was answered, questioning me which version of DKi Assistant was using. Two days ago I answered this question and no more Manisfestação of the Support Team.

How long will we have to endure this disrespect of this company, its products are expensive and we agreed to pay to be able to use them.
I request a solution as soon as possible, or at least that they deign to answer the questions of this forum

Ok here is the short version. DJI gets all three of my birds working by next Wednesday or a class action lawsuit will be initiated! Simple! Problem solved! I have three of their products P3P, Mavic Pro and a Inspire 1. Do the math on what I have invested. There will be no begging and coddling by this man promise you this!! If this gets deleted just google DJI class action lawsuit. I will keep everyone posted!

Hmmm... I haven't even taken my P4 out the door let alone fly it.  I'm wondering what I can expect?  I've never flown a drone.  I have it set to beginner mode and won't be flying it very high or too far away from me!!!

OK so now we are at 11.3 iOS firmware, updated my iPad last night, nervously lid up my I1 today and flew 2 batteries worth with not a glitch, well just one short one in which it threatened to loose image but recovered quickly, funny enough after I landed standing no more than a foot away it lost connection completely and almost does not regain it. A little detail, I flew with all wireless functions of the iPad on, I forgot to turn on airplane mode. and it didn't mess with the flight. I'm happy though I was still trembling after landing as lately I didn't know what was going to happen. So I think it is safe to go on to 11.3 iOS. Oh and no, I didn't fly over a mile I believe I made maybe 3000 feet, I know this will be considered lame, but it was as far as I need to go for my purposes.

Thank you for that information. I have an iPad Mini 4 on order and I have just seen this thread. Had me worried until I saw how many posts there are so I just went to the last one and am working my way backwards to see the latest news.

My main display is a Ipad 2017 with IOS 10.3.3 and 4.1.17 Go 4.    Latest FW on AC/RC; Phantom 4 Advanced.  Do not want to touch this, yet.  All operations STABLE.

Have upgraded my IPhone 7 Plus to IOS 11.3 and added Go 4 4.2.8.   Will use the Iphone as my ‘sandbox’ for testing.  Noticed the UUID/Voluntary flight identification.  

Hope to fly later today.  Will report back.

Was able to fly this afternoon with IOS 11.3 and Go 4 4.2.8 as described above.

Flight was STABLE all around.  A list of what was tested.  Night before flight I compared the 4.1.17 Go 4 to the new 4.2.8 for differences.  

Check all settings in Go 4
Check status lights; front lights operational
Check display link operations
Check general movement
Check all flight modes; P,S,A
Check RTH
Check all controls on RC
Check camera settings/functions
Check switch between pic/video inflight
Check intelligent flight modes
Check picture/video download SD to display device
Check obstacle avoidance

I did take the test before I could fly, as I was on an older version before; expected.   I also noticed some erroneous NFZ messages on the screen.   It appears to me that they occur whenever you are
Ready to Go (No GPS) and Ready to Go (Vision) prior to take-off.   Apparently this occurred as I was waiting for GPS lock.  Hoping DJI will look into this and correct.

As this flight was taken with an Iphone, I will update my Ipad 2017 and retest, just to be sure.

So far, all looked good and all flights were as stable as when I was on 4.1.17.

Hey mix... Was scrolling through some of your earlier comments on this post.  

In case you didn't pick up on this with the 11.3 update, I thought I'd share.... iOS 11.3 added a "beta" feature undre the new <Battery> function ( Look for <Battery> under the <Settings> app ).  Choose "Battery Health (Beta)" and you can see the remaining estimated Capacity of your battery and some subjective category of its' health.  

Your earlier estimate of two years battery life may not be a good measure of battery life.  Moreso it depends on how many times it's been recharged.  Apple claims life based on number of full charges, somewhere around 500.

Actually the phone before that 11.3 update already had a battery capacity gauge that maybe just got renamed, in fact the phone gave me a couple of warning messages telling me to have the battery checked. The reason I give it two years is because my previous iPhone a 3 at around 2 years started acting up. I was able to change the battery myself on that one, but it was not a fun project as my eyes are not what they used to be and I don't have the proper lighting to work on such small connectors etc. So yeah my calculation is loosely based on personal experience, your mileage may vary.

Got it!  Thanks for the feedback. I follow your thinking.  I guess I need to be thinking about having you change the battery in mine (when it comes time)!!  When the whole battery/slow down thing got going I checked on ifixit.com to see what it would take and... geez...  all I can do is "bow" and say, 'you got guts!" :-)

I actually did the 3 battery with iFixit.com, got the battery kit from them and all, It was pretty straight forward until came time to reconnect those blasted tiny ribbon cables/connectors, everything is so small an cramped, I actually closed the phone and had to open it again because the camera didn't connect right.

I've used them twice; once for adding memory to an iMac and once to add an SD drive to an 11" Air.  After reading the step-by-step three times I STILL video taped the disassembly, just in case!  All went well, but, as you say, and found out... that stuff is small!

I think I'm going to drop them a line to see if they'll start doing DJI repair videos... eh?
