i have no flown for 5 months.
Upgrades as requested, running on iPad 10.3.1
Everything else is good, IMU, compass, picture on iPad , but no flight controls. The stick does not command the rotors, it moves the camera a bit but that is it
Any ideas, anyone?

maybe try to relink the aircraft to the controller. maybe that will work.

Just to add to Grizz's advice, try linking it manually using the following button combination:

* Turn on both the aircraft and the controller.
* Press C1, C2, and the record button on the controller, then the controller will beep like D-DD. This may take a few seconds of holding it.
*While holding the buttons, press the wheel on the right side of the controller and then the first light of the controller will become blue and it will constantly beep DDDD.
* Use a pen to click the linking button on the aircraft and hold for 3-5 seconds, and then take the pen off the aircraft and wait, it will be linked soon.

If it moves the camera, then the RC unit is already linked to the aircraft, something else is wrong.

Geebax was right, RC is already link.
