Sometimes the 750 HD display on my iPad mini 2 is choppy or has ghost images when moving the camera while in flight.
Help please?

In other words,  the display has a second or two live video lag!

If you don't have it enabled, yes it will more than likely solve your problem. I was experiencing similar issues with mine.

When switching mine to airplane mode that really helped. That being said, the first few times I flew it was a little cooler outside. I noticed no lag at all, even when not in airplane mode. The very first time it was 70+ outside the ipad really got heated and I started to notice the lag. Took it out later in the evening and it was perfect again. Still trying to pinpoint it when lag happens.

Dentin,  I had the same issues.  Boston helped me out, I am pasting the solution from a different form post.

I am using an Ipad Mini 2, I find lots of lag.  Sometimes it takes a few seconds for the view to "ca ...

I too had a lot of lag with my iPad Mini 2. What fixed it was setting the transmission settings to custom and choosing 4mbps. Try that and report back.  And to stay on topic, mine flies great after the update. I never had GPS loss before the update so I can't say the update helped it at all in that respect.  No gimbal twitches today for about an hour of flying.
