Connecting the Axon Air app to your Android Tablet or DJI CRYSTALSKY Monitor
To use the Axon Air mobile app on an Android tablet or CRYSTALSKY monitor, it must be connected in the system.
Unplug the connection from the table/monitor to the UAV controller and then plug it back in. The tablet will prompt you to connect to the DJI pilot app or the Axon Air app. When prompted, select the Axon Air app and then select Just Once.
If you are not prompted for the selection:
- For an Android tablet, tap outside the dialog window area to close it. Navigate to Settings → Apps → Default Apps → Default App Selection and then select Ask Before Setting Default Apps. Additionally, within the Settings, select the pilot app you are using and then tap Clear Defaults.
- For a CRYSTALSKY monitor, navigate to Settings, select Apps, select All, for all applications, and then scroll to your pilot app and select it. Finally tap Clear Defaults.
Unplug the connection to the UAV controller and then plug it back in. The prompt will appear.
In the future to switch between the Axon Air app or your pilot app, unplug the cable to the controller, plug it back in, and when prompted select the app you want to use and then select Just Once. Do not select Always.
