    Crosby Beach Video: • Mavic Air | Crosby Bea...
    Update
    So Luke contacted me asking for some clarification and advice with regards to spare parts. Here's what I told him with some links if you need them:
    'OK. The important thing to remember is that the cable needs to be USB Type-C. That's because it supports USB 3 (a much faster speed transfer). Here's a link to a good quality one:
    Amazon UK: amzn.to/2xfceeU
    Amazon US: amzn.to/2BZsrZx
    Problem is, USB Type-C is the wrong connection for your tablet, like it is for mine. Hence the need for an adapter like the one that's shipped with the Mavic Air. So keep that one safe. However, if you lose that (and let's face it, it's a tiny bit of kit, who isn't gonna lose it?) you can get a replacement/spare here:
    Amazon UK: amzn.to/2QnItBc
    Amazon US: amzn.to/2CU932k
    Hope that helps clear things up. And no need to apologise. That's precisely why I make these types of videos. That's what I'm here for. Let me know how you get on.
    -Adam 👍🏻'
    So everywhere I looked, all I could find was either USB debugging would sort the problem or that I should use an iPad. But I already had a tablet. It just wouldn't work!
    If you've had the same problem as me, this just may be the solution you're looking for.

Now when I try to open the fly app, all I get is a white screen. Have uninstalled and reinstalled app, but still no joy. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers?

    I live in Southport and have just taken my first tiny step today (hadn't allowed for Woodvale Airfield restrictions lol) so ended up in Birkdale but plan to head to Crosby beach soon and take flight. Excellent piece as I think I'll need a tablet and hood as I found phone screen really difficult being old and knackered visually.
    Was wondering what mount you use for your tablet.
    Maybe we'll bump into each other eventually. Planning to trace the lost railway lines of Southport if I can get permissions.

Sometimes we all get high tech overload and this little (could be huge) hiccup was taxing my brain. I knew it had to be something simple but after reading through the manual and still no answer I did a You Tube search and you popped up. Thank you for posting and explaining in such a simple refreshing way! Yay! Woo Hoo!

Went to fly today, thinking it was a great idea to take one of my shorter leads, from the 'stash' that we all collect. I had to revert to my phone and the supplied short lead, I just couldn't get my tablet to connect.,. I tried changing settings, everything I could. it wouldn't work. Then, I came across this video, rummaged through my stash and found the lead I'd used first. It worked, a Sony USB-3.... Fantastic. I then found a short USB-C and will use this with adapter.

    I've been racking my brains out, buying all sorts of cables, nada. Then I picked up a 4th generation iPad. Went to download the DJI GO 4 app from the iCloud or istore, Idon't know whatever about crApple, never used one. But heard they worked with DJI. So now I have an Galaxy Tad 2 I can't use, an iPad that can run the software and my Desktop which is huge, my 17" laptop is not going to cut it. My Surface pro, like my laptop is Windows based & too big. So seems unless someone has a solution I'm back to using my spare Galaxy S7 which I've been using. Any life lines out there?

  • @Dazz_Ler
    @Dazz_Ler 5 лет назад +1

    Hi MOAM, So just to be clear here, are you saying that by using a USB 3 cable this will work/fix issues with Android tablet/devices even if they are equipped with a USB 2 interface port? i.e the slower interface. Or have I misunderstood and you mean that the 'missing link' between the remote and any USB 3 *ONLY* device (tablet/phone) that you are trying to connect is the USB 3 cable? That, to me, would make more sense but may be unclear for some and perhaps some clarification is required?... Although now as I look through some of the replies, success is being reported from some with devices that are USB 2 speced???? Now I'm confused!! Any thoughts?
    Cheers

    • @MusingOfaMan
      @MusingOfaMan  5 лет назад

      Ha! I see where the confusion is. How I first managed to make it work, it was a USB 3 cable (DJI's) with the converter for the USB type-C to micro USB. However, you're right, others are reporting that fast spec'd standard USB cables work too.
      The secret is to use a USB cable capable of higher transfer speeds.

    • @Dazz_Ler
      @Dazz_Ler 5 лет назад

      Thanks for the response. Can I ask... Is the Samsung Tablet you show around 0:57s a Galaxy Tab S3? If so (and this is the reason I asked in the first place) - the TAB S3 is a USB3.1 interface and using the 'correct' USB 3 cable would indeed explain the better transfer speed between the two USB 3 devices and hence performance. Although you are saying that you had the use the USB C to micro USB converter so that would rule out a TAB S3 as it has a USB C type port? So that brings me back to not understanding how people who have USB2.0 devices are reporting that using the USB 3 cable has made everything work well?! From my understanding(and I'm happy to be corrected if off the mark), is that the fastest possible speed attainable between two dissimilar devices is the slowest spec'd device's speed i.e. USB 2 in the cases mentioned. While a USB 3 cable is backward compatible with USB 2 devices, the cable shouldn't add any additional benefit in those cases?! Should it?!
      Hmmm.....Is it possible that many of us have all been using poor quality USB 2 cables in the first place and changing to a USB 3 cable, or as you have alluded to above - " others are reporting that fast spec'd standard USB cables work too" has allowed the USB 2 port to operate at its highest capability and hence the reports of the 'fix'?
      If so and even though the reasons why things got better may be blurred in the technicalities, I guess the end result is still the same. :-)
      Maybe I've just been looking too hard at the reasons why and not just accepting that it works in many cases. That's the legacy/curse of a lifetime of technical work and my need to know the details. Good work!
      Cheers.

    • @MusingOfaMan
      @MusingOfaMan  5 лет назад

      No, the tablet is the Samsung Tab A 10.1. I'm not sure precisely why it works with an adapted USB 3 cable and not the standard USB but I'm pretty sure it is because of the faster transfer speeds possible.

    This did not work for me. I tried using the original cable that came with the Mavic 2 Zoom and DJI Go 4 launches but does not connect to the aircraft. Tablet is a Samsung Galaxy Tab S2. All of our Samsung phones work just fine with any cable, just not the tablet.

      @@peteinozi no problem at all. First off, is there a particular reason why you're limiting to 7-8"? I use the 10" Samsung Tab A and it's perfect. If the size is definitely a requirement, I'd take a look at the Nexus tablets. They're around that size and will be fast enough (the more recent ones that is). You see, the speed and ability of the tablet is paramount. A simple cheap Android tablet will be a total false economy for you as it just either won't work with the DJI app, or will crash/force close constantly. Feel free to comment here with links of any you find if you want to run them by us to let you know how it will do. 👍🏻

    Interesting.... Problem is that my Mavic Pro came with a few different type of connection cables to accommodate a either a cell phone with a type c or micro USB connection. All of which work fine with a cell phone, when connected to the Mavic Pro controller's left hand side port. Will have to try placing a Micro USB adapter, that fits into my tablet, onto the end of my USB Type C cable, and see if it corrects the transmission problems... More to follow.

      OK. The important thing to remember is that the cable needs to be USB Type-C. That's because it supports USB 3 (a much faster speed transfer). Here's a link to a good quality one:
      amzn.to/2xfceeU
      Problem is, USB Type-C is the wrong connection for your tablet, like it is for mine. Hence the need for an adapter like the one that's shipped with the Mavic Air. So keep that one safe. However, if you lose that (and let's face it, it's a tiny bit of kit, who isn't gonna lose it?) you can get a replacement/spare here:

      Hope that helps clear things up. And no need to apologise. That's precisely why I make these types of videos. That's what I'm here for. Let me know how you get on.
