Portrait mode

Is there a way to set up portrait mode for all modes? I have the iFly set up for portrait, but everything else (streets, home, etc) stays in landscape. TIA>

Re: Portrait mode

Chuck,

Not at this time. This is something we are looking into further. It's a pretty big deal to support Portrait mode in the Firmware or Device menu system. Stay tuned.

You might consider having the iFly 720 boot to Navigation Mode, so that most of the time when you fly, it will boot to Portrait Mode and you would only see the Menu page for a moment. We'll continue to look into this further. Thanks for the feedback. I have this on our Wish List as well.

Wait, what? I didn't know that got fixed...been afraid to try it after the nasty behavior it used to exhibit! I'll have to give that a shot!

Re: Portrait mode

Make sure you have the latest firmware. It should be fine unless you are using a SkyRadar, then that pause gives the SkyRadar time to boot before the iFly tries to connect.

Whoops...I do have a SkyRadar. Well, I may give it a shot anyway, but I appreciate the warning!
