I will add a bit to that thread tomorrow. Hi All, I just updated the PilotAware thread, I tested a patch from Lee and it fixes the data connection. With the fix I can connect to PA and access data via 3G/4G, no message from SD G‌uess this patch will be made public soon, keep an eye on the PA web site or thread, I‌'m not part of the PA team just someone with the issue lucky enough to be selected to test the fix.

Group: Forum Members Posts: 7.8K, Visits: 8.5K	This issue is because the current PilotAware software advertises to iOS that it provides an internet connection, and therefore SkyDemon tries to use it. We try to use it when you're in Go Flying mode but when you're still on the ground, so not actually flying yet. We can't really solve it from our side without changing this behaviour, which we are not willing to do given the usefulness of getting the latest live data as you taxi, filing flightplans while rolling etc.

I Group: Forum Members Posts: 4, Visits: 1	+x Tim Dawson - 6/28/2017 2:43:08 PM We only check for updates when there's an internet connection AND you're not flying (unless you've ticked that last option). Presumably you were actually flying, and not just in Go Flying mode but sat on the ground? ‌‌ I get it in both 'Live Data when Planning' and 'Live Data when Planning and flying'. I would expect to get it on the later, not both. B‌TW it is possible to use the 3G and PAW connections concurrently if you have a 3G signal. Check the PAW forums for info‌. ‌ SD V‌ersion 3.8.1.72 Edited 7/6/2017 11:02:24 AM by Ian Melville
