Well that's pretty conclusive, I did some tests today in my back yard with the mini and when not in Airplane mode, with WIFI still on and Wifi Hot Spot on on my other phone, connection to the drone was almost impossible! Turning ON airplane mode, turning off wifi, turning OFF mobile hotspot on my other phone gave me solid connection. This also checked out very visibly on Airdata Flight Logs.
To be honest I should have been doing this religiously as part of my pre-flight check but from now on all communications to and from the drone phone will be shut down.
I was also quite surprised how strong the Hotspot Wifi signal is from my other phone when checked with WIFI Analyser (Android App) so it is no wonder this was causing issues.
So hopefully back to relatively interference free flying with the mini. I'm also thinking of getting some range extenders, not to extend the distance but maybe just increase reliability of signal a little. |
