[QUOTE="wyx087, post: 11709, member: 1896"] Tested last night, reinstalled DJI Go 4 app doesn't solve the problem. (iOS 10 by the way, tested on iPhone 6s+ and 5s) Force quit the app and launch it again fixed the problem. So the steps to quickly change battery are as follow: 1. land 2. turn off the drone 3. change battery 4. turn on the drone 5. while the drone is starting up and RC hasn't connected, force quit the DJI Go 4 app 6. launch the DJI Go 4 app again 7. by now, RC should be connected and the drone should be ready to fly. Whole process takes less than a minute. Steps 5 and 6 are extra steps needed after the .600 firmware update, but doesn't actually slow down the process because you still have to wait for drone initialisation and RC connection. Luckily it avoided turning off the RC. I wanted to avoid power cycle the RC because in doing so, you'd also have to faff about with the OTG cable. This way just a few extra swipes on the phone and back to flying. [/QUOTE]
