Video Window



About

The PHX can support live streaming of video. The video is displayed in an adjustable window in the lower left hand corner of the Fly screen.

The video stream is disabled by default on iOS as it has been known to cause instability issues for some iPads. The stream can be enabled via the application settings.


How to Use

Wait for The Camera

The video stream will automatically begin when the camera has fully booted and started a session (requires GPS home point in most cases).

 

Adjust as Necessary

Adjust the size of the window to meet your needs by grabbing the upper right hand corner of the window and dragging it.

 

Hide the Video Window

The video window can also be collapsed by pressing the arrow button in the bottom left hand corner of the video window.

The window can be reopened by pressing the arrow button again.

 

Full Screen or Separate Window

Full Screen

The video stream can be made full screen by pressing the middle of the video window.

This will switch the video wind and Fly screen around and will hide all flight controls.

Sentera does not recommend using this feature for long term operation.

 

Separate Window

The video window can be broken out into a separate window from Fly PHX by pressing the button in the upper left hand corner of the video window.
