Haven't tested it in flight, just playing about with it on my machine. So far seems fairly nice will have to look at the range with my router. One thing I've found on my Note 3 even though I have location services on the app seems to think my GPS isn't on. But so far seems a nice idea, for a cheap/free fpv starter.

Works on high end devices But not on cheap ones like the $20 venture other ip camera apps work on these devices though none of them have a HUD with telemetry would love thid app if it worked with lower end devices

Brilliant Concept... but it could do with a couple of additional features: 1) Recording. 2) 'Find me' option to switch on a noise so that you can find it after a crash 3) Orientation options. I have a plan to mount a phone flat under a quad and use a 'periscope' to film forwards rather than down. wififpv can't be used for this as a) It doesn't change from landscape to portrait. b) You cannot reset the HUD to a non-standard orientation. Number 3 is the most important, implement that and I'll be ecstatic!
