Hi,
Before I officially make my maiden autopilot launch via Ground Station with my iPad, I am taking every precaution and educating myself first -- especially after I have heard (and seen) how "flight simulator" mode does not work on my iPad mini (which the forums seems to say is to be expected with any iPad using iOS 7.xx). So, that means the first time I hit "go," it will be the real deal. I have stripped off my gimbal and camera to minimize the cost in the air for this first flight, but here are a couple questions I have left that I am seeking your guys' knowledge on:

- If I lose connection mid-flight between the iPad and the ground end via bluetooth, what is the response of the craft? (i.e. does it enter fail safe, continue on an uploaded path, stop and hover, etc.)
- If I lose connection mid-flight between the ground end and the air end, what is the response of the craft?
- Is it true that at any time I can toggle out of GPS mode to regain control with my transmitter?
