Offline Mode: takes off and that's it!

Hi, used offline mode for the first time yesterday, so I could use my tablet with it’s larger screen. The plan is marked as Offline, I let it sync on Wi-Fi. When I came to fly the plan, my Mavic Air took off and just hovered, didn’t start the mission. Tried another offline mission, same thing. At one point I saw a message about not finding the server or something. In the end, tethered the tablet to my phone, not the idea!

Any idea why this happened?

Cheers

Andy

Hi @andy_chard, what tablet, OS and version? Are you able to fly with a Wi-Fi connection? Once the plan has synced, have you tried flying with Wi-Fi turned off?

Nexus 7 android 6.0.1. Wifi on the tablet was off until I needed to connect to the hotspot on my phone

The Nexus 7 isn’t on the supported device list, but that doesn’t mean we can’t get it to work. What version of DroneDeploy is on it?

Sorry, just seen your reply. It’s version 3.9.2

Thanks

Andy
