When I looked at a teardown of the iPad Pro 10.5, what I didn't see is a thermal conduction path to the case from the CPU. My existing iPad Mini also doesn't have a way to dissipate the heat from the processor, which results in video corruption under the high processing load when downlinking...

Is it the case with the latest firmware when the gimbal hits the limit (e.g. due to aircraft pitch) instead of bouncing off the limit, the gimbal reverts to a neutral position until the aircraft attitude returns to something more normal? Testing on the ground by tilting the aircraft clearly what...

Not all Apple iOS devices provide a thermal conduction path from the CPU to the case. Apple employs throttling to protect the CPU under high work loads, such as decoding video on the ARM. Throttling lowers clock rate to manage thermal dissipation to a safe level. The iPad Mini (all versions) are...

I found that my iPad and iPhone was overheating and throttling, thus causing video quality issues (tearing, green bars, etc...typical issues with respect to dropped H.264 packets). In fact I could demonstrate this on demand with a hair dryer for a few minutes on the back of the Apple devices. My...
