Hi!

I must be a fool, but I can not have my devices to work properly. I have installed the Bad Elf app into my mini but I can not have my SkyDemon to work while using "Go flying" mode. What have I done wrong? It work quite well at home, but I have come to the conclusion that it is due to my wifi at home; in the airplane I just receive the message "Searching for sattelites". The devices are connected with Bluetooth - but no gps-connection for SkyDemon, why??

Hi, and thank's to both of you. I followed your advice and shotdown my background apps. However, I shotdown one at the time and finally I found out that if I shotdown my WiFi the Bluetooth GPS device worked as smooth as it was intended. I think the reason is that if you have the "Apple-WiFi" on at the same time as the Bluetooth GPS device, the Mini uses the "Apple-WiFi" as the primary source to search for sattelites for the Location Services; easy to understand when the clue is found!
