The aircraft, like thousands of other devices, uses an un-regulated radio band that it has to share with millions of other un-regulated radio emitting devices. Not just WiFi, but garage door openers, baby monitors and just about anything you can imagine. Even though you might have been in the 'middle of no-where' you can still be in range of these things. Put your phone in airplane mode, it might help a bit.
The 'hanging up' will be because as the aircraft rotates, the position of its receiving antenna is changing. If it drops out for an instant, it is not receiving the rotate command, so it stops for a moment while waiting for the signal to return.
Thank you for the info on putting the phone in airplane mode. It helps. I am still a little spooked at being a newbie plus I really don't want to crash it like I read on these forums.
Thanks again
