Another feature I'd love to see would be a way to flight plan on my iPhone then share that plan to my 740. I'm guessing Bluetooth would be the most common way to do this. Are there any future plans to add features like this? Maybe I can do this now and am just not aware.

This is currently supported, but you need to be connected to a common WiFi access point. Example connect your iPad and iFly 740 to your home router network or even a hotspot, or common ADS-B WiFi device, not bluetooth.

Then once you build your Flight Plan, touch Flight Plan -> More Options and choose "Share with Local Devices". You should see a popup message to accept that shared Flight Plan on your other iFly devices on that network.

We even tak it a step further by allowing "Always Accept", this will even rubber-band your route as you rubber-band it on the other master device.

I hope this helps. We are in the process of updating our Manual and it will include this.
