Hi, I tried Follow Me mode for first time today and the message that displayed was no satellite cover. The Inspire Pro was hovering with 15 satellites visible! Am I doing something wrong and has anyone else experienced this? Best regards, Geoff

Hi, thanks very much for your response. I hadn’t realised that. I thought there was a GPS in the RC  which was all that was needed.. Will try with iPhone tomorrow. Geoff

Hi Geoff, glad to see TruGreen and Des have helped to find out the reason, please note the Follow Me performance is subject to the GPS accuracy on the mobile device, thus the mobile device must include a normally functioning GPS module.
