I took my Mavic (my first drone) out for a test flight today, but I had a couple of issues using an iPhone 6s with it.
I connected the iPhone to the controller and turned it on, at first the app said it said it wasn't connected and shortly after the phone went off like the battery had died and the phone a actually showed low power (which was really strange as a minute earlier it was on 80+ percent).
I happened to have my work phone with me (another iPhone 6s) and I knew that was fully charged so I used that and it worked although I then discovered I had only upgarded the firmware on the Mavic and not remote so had to do that.
Anyway I flew the Mavic until its battery was low (loved it!) and landed for a change of battery, after a few more minutes flight I decided to land as the charge on the phone was getting low so I decided to swap back to my first iPhone 6s which I had charged in the car and was showing full.
I connected the phone and it appeared to be working but a minute or so later the phone turned off and showed low power. I disconnected it left a minute and turned the phone on again and it was almost full and works fine and has plently of power. The issue only happens when I connect it to the Mavic.
Any ideas? it's almost like the Mavic or shorting out the phone....
