[QUOTE="Morgan, post: 72765, member: 14591"] I have the exact same setup (Google Pixel + Spark connected to the controller with OTG) and recently had the same thing happen with regard to the phone powering down. I restarted my phone while the drone was still in the air and it shut down after opening the app again. I thought maybe there was an issue with my phone not being charged enough, or the controller sucking battery from my phone as a power source, so later, after charging everything I tried again and had the same issue. However, when I unplugged the OTG cable and just flew with the controller and phone unconnected, no issues at all. I looked around on some other forums regarding this issue and it seems to be that DJI no longer supports OTG for Android phones which might be what is causing the issue. People have reverted to an older version of the DJI Go app and it works. I haven't tried it out, but might consider it. [/QUOTE]
