It just draws a "gunsight in the centre of the App's screen

Yes, they are in the USA too.  I have some questions,

Why did they put the map on the left side now? you can toggle it closed but I liked it on the right side

Various bug fixes?  Can you tell us what was fixed because there have been a lot of concerns with batteries and the app.

When I updated, some of my settings had to be redone because they did not carry over once I connected up to the Inspire 1

RICH,

I noticed the same using my iPhone. But when I upgraded my iPad the map was still on the rigth side.
I think they did a good job on centralizing the pictures options with a new icon. It's easier when you want to alter some camera settings  or enable histogram.

A-ha...let me go check...

Are there no release notes informing of the changes (e.g. Bug fixes) ?

Sorry, I must have mistaken...but, I've been on this version of the app on my iPad for quite some time now.  How is it that it's only available to some now?  Or, am I missing something?

Ok....this is super weird!  I've had IOS app version 1.2.0 for a while now, but, on the DJI download page, it shows that the IOS version is still only 1.1.2. (the Android shows 1.2.0).  But it seems from this thread that IOS 1.2.0 is brand new?

Hehehe...how on this sweet earth did I get IOS 1.2.0 on my iPad ?  (No jokes, I just can't explain it)

Graham,

Perhaps when you signed up for the Beta Testing you were automatically updated to the newer version sooner.

I agree though would be super useful and for clarity for DJI to specifically identify and express the bugs that have been fixed.  It is of no use whatsoever just to say bug fixes without explanation.

Seems par for the course though with DJI - very little technical info.

Totally agree to the bug fix info.  I'd really want to see what is getting 'fixed' each time...

Overmind, The only way this can be explained is:

Magic  

What happened to all of the menu options in "other' ..... histogram is GONE!  So is show grid, video format..... damn, almost EVERYTHING is gone below units of measurement.


Never mind..... found them.  They hid them in the camera slide out menu.  Click on the camera settings icon above the shutter.  When the menu appears, tap MORE.  They really need to explain things they change.  

VERSION NOTES.......PLEASE, when you do updates.

Perhaps thats how the update works with regard to "various bug fixes"  its just magic and DJI dont know what fixes have actually been fixed.

Yesterday I updated the Pilot app on my iPad Air. I wanted to know what had changed with this update so I opened the APP without a connection to my Inspire. When you enter the MC settings and then go to Advanced settings you'll find, just under Failsafe mode the option of what to do when RC signal is lost : RTH of Landing.
Tonight I wanted to check wether the data I had put in the other night without being connected to the Inspire was still there so I connected my iPad to my Inspire. The data was indeed the same but I noticed that when I went to MC settings, the option what to do when signal is lost wasn't there anymore ? Once disconnected it reappeared ? Am I missing something here ? Is there a standard setting once connected ?

Thanks for the heads up. They migrated the camera stuff into the drop down menus. It's all there but in different places.  To be honest I have not updated my iPad yet and been flying with my iPhone 6.

Can you explain how this it done and the purpose? Is it like the "draw guides" feature?

Did you guys tried to change the video transmission to "custom"? For me it's unavailable (grey) on bot iPad and iphone while on the aster remote. And in this current form my usable distance dropped from 1-2 km to 300-400 meter and still the video breaks up every 20-30 sec.

Sorry for the late response. Yes, the custom menu for the video channels works for me.
