Troubleshooting
This is a reference for typical issues and their solutions.
A MESSAGE ABOUT ACTIVATION FAILED APPEARS
Make sure the Android device has access to the Internet for the activation procedure. This only needs
to be done once.
ALL COMPONENTS ARE TURNED ON AND CONNECTED, BUT COCKPIT IS STILL SHOWING A BLACK SCREEN
WITH THE CONNECTION BAR.
Check connection of every component, including the USB cable. The cause can be a bad contact on
either end.
COCKPIT IS SHOWING VIDEO FROM AIRCRAFT, BUT THE CONNECTION PROGRESS BAR IS BLINKING
INDEFINITELY
Turn off aircraft, RC and quit Cockpit. Then, turn all these components back on using the following
order:
1.
Turn aircraft on and wait for red & green LEDs to blink alternately in a slow rhythm.
2.
Turn remote controller on and wait for the green LED on it
3.
Start Cockpit
VIDEO QUALITY IS BAD
Make sure you have a right signal level from aircraft; check the signal meters on screen. Weak signal is
a cause for low video quality.
If Android device storage is full or nearly full (less than 1GB remaining), applications have more
difficulty to run correctly, and this can affect video quality.
VIDEO IS SLOW / MORE LATENCY IS OBSERVABLE
Screen recording software, applications running background processes (see notifications) and widgets
like on-screen CPU meters may affect performance. Shut those down if not needed.
If Android device storage is full or nearly full (less than 1GB remaining), applications have more
difficulty to run correctly, and this can affect video quality.
The speed of the tablet
MY FLIGHT VIDEOS HAVE DISAPPEARED FROM THE RECORDINGS FOLDER
When there are 4 GB of recorded videos or more on the tablet, older recordings are automatically
deleted. Make sure you save videos in a different place soon enough to keep them.
