Right -- the above process should work on both Apple and Android devices.

Do you shut the WiFi off on the phone?

Do you shut off WiFi on phone after the otg cable is hooked up? My phone wants to auto connect to the RC via WiFi

Yes, I am in Airplane mode, everything off, and no android watch either

4, Switch Device on and select Airplane Mode,,(Wi-Fi and Bluetooth off)
5, Select DJi App, plug OTG cable from device into RC,,!!
6, Wait for App to accept OTG,, ( I get a message stating "This device does not support this"
however I ignore this and select "Go Fly"

Please note I am using IOS (iPad Air2) and not sure about Android!!

What do you mean no difference, everything works the same as wifi as with OTG

I see no delay I mean. Nothing visible.

Are all the telemetry working with OTG?

Someone posted this.
I use it with no errors.

My OTG procedure (DJI GO 4 4.2.12):

1. Turn on Remote Control (RC). Wait for solid red.
2. Plug in OTG cable in phone.
3. Plug other end in RC.
4. Choose DJI GO 4 app in popup window.
5. Wait until GO 4 app is open and it says "RC Connected" in lower left corner.
6. Power up your Spark. Try to place RC as close to Spark as possible. (DJI recommend 20 cm)
7. Bonding between RC and Spark should take less than 30 sec.
8. Hit GO FLY!

This is absolutely fail-safe method!

If for some reason you want to change channels, lower numbers is 2.4 GHz and higher numbers is 5.8 GHz.
In CE area 2.4 GHz channel is preferred.

To change between bands/channels:

9. In Wifi section of settings, choose "Custom".
10. Where it says Channel Index, tap one of the channels.
11. Tap "Apply" at the bottom of the page.
12. Power down your Spark (Air-craft)
13. Power up your Spark again.
14. Within 30 sec you will see new channel has been set.

This is also fail-safe method!

FLY SAFE!

I got that.... That's if you are in wifi but I meant with OTG, are well the telemetry working with. 12

It's for OTG.... Read it good dude [emoji3]

And yes everything is working. Did 8 flights with that setup, no problem.
Everything is there. Battery life, distance, hight. All info is like it schould.
I was having the message 'videotransmission connection low please adjust antennas' when flying with wifi from 50m away. Now I did 250m with perfect connection with OTG.
I mean it's better now and all good. Finally they did something for the owners...

Hey, I have both Android and IOS. I live in the Caribbean. For me I get way better results with my IPhone 6+ using Wi-Fi. There were alot of Wi-Fi signals where I flew from that day. Below is a pic of my flight record...the last flight I did with my spark on the 5.8Ghz band earlier this week.

Yeah it could be possible that every region needs certain settings. I am from Belgium (European union) and I am best with OTG and spark on 2.4ghz [emoji6]. Otherwise it's not good to fly the spark farther then 100m. Now with these settings I have no problems anymore. Mutch flight pleasure there in that beautiful part of the world! Grtz
