Why should it fail at the point of take off ?

That's when we start logging, if you haven't started logging manually.

It's difficult to say, if you weren't monitoring it in flight, perhaps your GPS signal wasn't sufficient for SkyDemon to actually be tracking your position?

It was more a case of landing, seeing it had tracked (blue line), then hitting stop navigation and not having anything to upload. I'm now using a Sky Echo and it hasn't repeated for a while so I'm happy.

Hi All,

I have noticed a few times when SD fails to record a flight. Today flying on a 2.8 hours training flight both my Instructors and my SD simply didn't show any track when we landed, despite the flight timers running, and the aircraft showing in the correct position on the airfield.
My instructor also said he saw the line being created on his device during flight - he had it out, mine was in a door pocket, but when both stopped nothing was recorded on either device.

under what circumstances does SD NOT record? Both running Iphones on the latest ios. do we have any debugging or logs we could check?
