My iFly 720 will not lock on to the GPS signal after the recent (4 days ago) upgrade to the new software. I've tried cold, hot starts and factory resets, along with an hour each looking at over 180 degrees of sky. Originally the time was wrong, but eventually it corrected and still the GPS wouldn't lock on. This is in the same location that I've used it (inside my house, by a sliding glass door) where it has always worked before over the last 2+ years. After the latest reset, the time is incorrect (again).
This happened one previous time (after a software upgrade) and it eventually started working again... I can't tell you why. It didn't seem to corelate to anything I'd done (cold, hot starts and factory resets).
Makes one not wish to upgrade the software... if this is a recurring feature of the upgrade fuction, perhaps we could have some procedures developed to troubleshoot and recover the GPS lock, without having to crowd-source what is going on, each time we want our equipment to work?
It's a great app and I appreciate it's flexibility, but I'm looking for a little more reliability. If I understood more of what was this issue- which apparently many are working through each upgrade- maybe I could put it into a better perspective.
