Can I Upgrade to a Larger Memory Card

With the updates over the years, I've been running into issues where I can no longer update my memory card due to space limitations. The pop-up menu only gives me the option to delete IFR data, the rest of the menus are cancelled out. Can I simply copy the contents of the card to a new larger card so I have enough memory for everything? Are there any limitations on the cards?

I'm using a 32g card, which may be an excessive amount of memory, but you can also usea 16g card. Not sure what the minimum speed class should be, I use a class 10 which is the fastest.

You can copy the root of the SD card to any directory. Then you can copy it to your new card.

Re: Can I Upgrade to a Larger Memory Card

Jayson,

You can upgrade your card. We recommend a good brand such as Samsung or Snadisk. Just copy all the contents from your old card to your new. Please note, however, that if you have iFly Streets that product cannot be moved to a new card.

Thanks,
Walter
