Hi All. So here's the situation. I'm using an iPhone 6 over WiFi, a Spark and a Remote.  No matter what I seem to do I always have to power off my RC and power it back on for the iPhone to see it. The iPhone always sees it upon second power up but it always take a two.  Anyone ever run into this before?  Should I power of the RC or Spark first?  Scratching my head on this one.

This sequence works for me

1.Turn on Spark
2.Turn on RC
3.Wait for green light
4.Plug in OTG to connect tablet (wireless disabled)
5.Wait for DJI GO app to boot up
6.Good to go

Your phone should 'see' your RC's Wi-fi almost as soon as it turns on, regardless of any other part of the process

I prefer to turn on Spark after everything else is turned on and connected (RC, OTG, DJI GO) just to save some battery life. Please let me know if it may cause issues.

Turn on RC, turn on Mavic Air/Spark, wait for the software to open itself. Fly.
Works fast and very well for me.

I have a powerful Wireless router my mobile devices are connected to.
If I am not far enough away from the house, I manually have to select the Spark RC
That could be what you are running into?
Close enough to the house to still be connected but just on the edge of disconnection?
Thhat is why it works the second time.

This will fix the issue, as well as speed up your setup up time and lessen the possibility of some other problems.   Well worth the $8.  OTG FTW.
