Multiple forum members (myself inlcuded) noticed the random disconnects between DJI Fly app and AC in previos versions of DJI Fly app (1.1.2, 1.1.4),
I confirm that the issue persisist in v.1.1.5.

Yesterday when flying for few hours this happened to me twice.
Screen on DJI Fly app went blank for a second or two and than main screen appeared. When I clicked on "Connect Airtcraft" button, I was reconnected to AC.
In both instance AC was very close to me (no more than 20 m) and there was no signal interference (I did check Transmission menu) since I was in the middle of canadian bush about 20 kilometers from the closest sign of civilization.

I use Samsung Galaxy S9.
DJI Fly app 1.1.5.
New MA2 firmware 01.00.0250.

S7 here.  Disconnects here.   Have tried airplane mode, turning off Bluetooth... (still disconnects at times)  Have heard that a hard reboot of phone before flight might help.  Not confirmed.

I have a Note 9 that I have been holding off using because of these issues, updated everything yesterday, and will continue to choose my iPhone to fly with for now.  Not going to risk using Android if its not stable.

C'mon DJI, Samsung devices are probably in a high percentile of devices in use out there, fix this please.  Why is my 6 year old iPhone more reliable than my one year old Note 9?

Yeah - the picture below shows were I fly. Basically, where the bear sh**ts in the woods :-)
No chance for any signal interference, Wifi interference, bluetooth connection interference etc.
Because there are none. No signals, no nothing.

Only sh**ing bears, my Samsung S9, my MA2 and I :-)

It has been recommended that you turn off Bluetooth and WiFi on your device. Trees forest also play a big part in blocking or soaking up signal.

And I suppose your device could be the problem, so try turning off BT and WiFi see if this helps and or switch device to see if this makes a difference.

hallmark007,

This is not frequent (happens to me once every several hours of flying).

I doubt that signal betwen RC and AC is lost since yetesrday I was 20 metres away with no obstacles between me and AC and no interference whatsovere (no civilization around). Signal was prisitine.

In addition, lost signal between RC and AC does not result in DJI Fly app going blank and switching back to the main screen. This is probably related to DJI Fly bug which has not been fixed since 1.1.2. And, perhaps, affects only certain mobile models (Samsung?).

However, I will make sure that Wifi and Bluetooth on my phone are turned off and, next time it happens, I will try to control AC to see if it responds (I am quite positive it will - but we will see).

JJB,

DJI Controller in one hand and pepper spray in the other :-)
Naah, these are docile black bears. Not like psychopath european Brown Bears or american Grizzlies.
But I am not joking about pepper spray - better safe than sorry :-).

This problem was present in 1.1.2, 1.1.4 and is now in 1.1.5.
No sense to downgrade. I think DJI simply did not fix it yet.

It make sense because i don't have some issues with the 1.1.2 and whats the benefit of 1.1.4 or 1.15 ???
For me it's important to have a good connection....
The 8K RAW ... not really

S7 here.  Disconnects here.   Have tried airplane mode, turning off Bluetooth... (still disconnects at times)  Have heard that a hard reboot of phone before flight might help.  Not confirmed.

I had a disconnect today with the drone idling on the table right next to the controller.
It’s the first I have had, and it is the latest update. I have a Note 9.
I powered down both drone and controller and powered off the phone.
After powering all up again, had no more issues with disconnects for three battery flights.
I am a little more concerned with flying now.
