I wanted to dedicate an older Android phone that I have to be my flight display so that I don't have to deal with troubles related to using my primary phone, such as getting calls or alerts while in flight. The older phone is a Moto X4 running Android 9 -- It's really a fairly decent device, though not high-end by any means.

When I connected the phone and got my first video feed from the drone, it seemed perfectly fine at first. Then as soon as I tried moving the gimbal prior to take off I noticed a significant latency between the activating the control and seeing the change on the screen. In flight, I immediatley noticed the same problem with any movement. This obviously is a no-go for me since it introduces major flight risk.

Has anyone seen something like this and do you know if it's perhaps related to the hardware specs? Or is is possibly a limitation caused by the older version of Android?

Update -- I reinstalled my Moto X4 with LineageOS 17.1 (Android 10), and at least with a simple test of the gimbal the lag seems to be gone now. I'll see how it fares with flying when I get a chance.

Hi, cinglemolt. Thanks for reaching out and posting your concern. Based on your update, it may have seemed to be working properly now.
