Hi Guys,

I 'tried' to use Skydemon on my iPad mini today whilst flying but just got a message 'Waiting for location update' or similar which didn't go away and therefore I didn't have any position update at all..

Really sorry, but I am a newbie on Skydemon! Do I need some external GPS (Bluetooth) for iPad that will make skydemon work?

Many thanks,

Tristan

If your iPad is a WiFi only model (no SIM card slot), then you WILL need an external GPS.
