drone is a phantom 4
nvidia shield k1 android tablet
recent updates installed also at dji go app. (today) but the problem has always been there

It maybe does not allow changes to controls when aircraft connected.

Try again with aircraft switched off.

Jan, I have experimented with these settings for the same reasons. To soften things up a bit. I don't think you can change these while you are flying. Haven't tried that,  but I don't think it would be a good idea even if you could. One bad input might be might be catastrophic!  Your equipment needs to be turned on though, but the motors should not be running. At least that is what I did if I remember correctly. If I don't have my copter on and connected, when I open the app it has all the default values for a lot of those things. After I am connected it shows the correct changes I have made in the past. I am guessing the RC must write to the copter and it stores the info onboard in an EPROM or something...or maybe on the SD-card. Not trying to sound like I know that for sure but seems to be logical. I have changed them several times with good results. I have also changed the gain setting a bit too. I don't have the thread on it, but there is a good video that explains what those functions do and what to be aware of when you change them. Just search for gain-settings on this forum or maybe on You-Tube, and I'm sure you will find it if you want.

Jan I have tuned in softer exp settings on my P4 (latest firmware).  Phantom needs to be on.  In the exp field I first erase (backspace) over the values in the box then type in new values.  New input values must be light blue to be valid.  Lowest value is 0.2.  I use 0.4, 0.2 and 0.3.  Note that there is a second set of values that  can be input for sport mode.

is there anyone who has the right solution to change the expo settings in DJI go app.
In the case of android latest version.

When I change it it just becomes red. and when I restart PH4 then it is NOT changed.

I seemed to have tested both with PH4 on and off

Have noticed you have commas after each zero, is this a country keyboard thing as mine are full stops after the zeros. Maybe this is your problem, try changing the commas to full stops. I'm using the same tablet and can change mine as long as it's connected to P4.

Correct, delete the comma too and change to a period. Also you can use your finger and swipe.

I'm pretty sure I've tried just to change the number after the comma, that is, without changing it. And I'm actually sure that I have tried to made a dot. but I'll just try again tomorrow ..

and Gasram: when you changed it. it remains so changed immediately without being red and without having to restart PH4 ... ??

and Heebus. I feel that the shield is a super cool tablet to PH4. I would buy the same today

Thank you for the answers .. I write back tomorrow.
good night from Denmark time is 11 pm  :-)

You can also just put your finger in the little drawing and drag until you get a number you want.
