'No Signal' on initial connection

I'm having problems with initial connection and it seems to get worse.
Normally I start the Spark then the RC and when I get the green light I connect the OTG cable (tablet/smartphone first, then RC). The Go 4 main page says I'm connected but when I select 'Go Fly' the display shows 'No Signal' top left. I then have to power off/on the Spark then the RC, or some other combination until it's good. Does 'No Signal' refer to smartphone-RC or RC-Spark?

I first saw it last week when flying outside. Indoors there was never an issue but since the weekend it happens indoors too. Yesterday it also showed 'no signal' as I was landing

- The problem may have started after I tried to switch the WiFi from 5.8 to 2.4GHz, although it retuned itself to 5.8 and Auto anyway.
- I've seen the probem with DJO Go 4.2.8 although it seems to occur more often since 4.2.12, maybe because I'm flying more.
- It happened with Wireless before I switched to OTG connection with 4.2.12. Maybe I should test WiFi again
- I use a Huawei M5 tablet and for the last couple of days an old OnePlus One, I'll test the M5 again.

(writing this I realise I have changed quite a few parameters and need to go back to my initial setup)

Anyone experienced similar problems, any ideas? I coudn't find a matching description in the Forum.

Is there a factory reset option for the Spark, in case I screwed something up? I couldn't find it so far

Thanks in advance
John
