I have had 0 and have about 30 flights. But I turn on airplane mode to make sure I am all good. Can't speak for everyone else though. But I am looking to get an iPad mini for this so I can have a larger screen.

The device you use has nothing to do with flyaways.  You can fly all you want without even having a device connected to your RC.

Phantom 3s don't just fly away.
