Important Notes

Note: Both Wi-Fi and Cellular features on iPad Air / Mini and Pro models are compatible. Only cellular models have GPS functions. You don’t have to activate the cell service to use the GPS. As of current, the DJI GO app only requires GPS on any Apple device when you are using the Follow Me feature or to reset the home point to its current location if you have relocated after taking off. If you decided to use a Wi-Fi only Apple device. You should attach a Bluetooth GPS Receiver to install GPS if you need to.

Note: When you’re flying a Phantom, the tablets that are wider than 6.75 inches (including the case) will require an extender to be installed on the remote controller. The iPad Air will fit just fine without a case. It’s highly recommended that you buy this extender which will fit tablets up to 12.9 inches.
