A word about the difference between Android and iOS: I haven't upgraded to the latest versions yet, but up until the last "version-set" (4.1.18 and no alerts about updates), I was able to use an USB cable with no problems whatsoever on my iPhone 7 (still on iOS 10 though) - I did get the message "This accessory may not be supported", but after that I could just open DJI GO and was connected. However, there was virtually no difference at all, neither in the stability of the connection nor in the connection range, so I stopped using it - it was much easier to just squeeze the phone between the grips without having to pass the cable through the slot, if it's for the same result.
So, from what I see in these forums, this is mainly, or even solely, a concern for Android users. Or are there any iOS users here who get a better connection or range if they are connected by cable?
Concerning the OTG standard / protocol: OTG (on-the-go) is a specification for the USB standard, something like an "add-on", and I have read somewhere that Apple/iOS does NOT support USB-OTG. I'm not sure what this means, but I'm not using a proper OTG cable, but a simple lightning cable with a USB to micro USB adapter, and it doesn't seem to make a difference. |
