Overview
Flight Reader version 1.6.11 (and newer) includes the Flight Log Transfer Service to help quickly transfer flight logs from Apple or Android mobile devices connected to the same local network as Flight Reader (like your local network at home).
How to transfer DJI flight logs over your local network
Just open a web browser on your Apple or Android mobile device, browse to the Service Location URL, and select one or more flight logs to transfer to Flight Reader. The selected flight logs will be instantly transferred over your local network and processed in Flight Reader.
When Flight Reader is installed, the Flight Log Transfer Service is installed as a Windows service. This Windows service starts automatically when Windows starts and quietly waits in the background for flight log transfer requests.
To access the Service Location URL, open the Flight Reader main window and select File → Flight Log Transfer Service from the top menu.
Then, scan the QR code on your Apple or Android mobile device or manually enter the Service Location URL in any mobile web browser.
Note: After scanning the QR code, your mobile web browser should automatically open and browse to the Service Location. Consider creating a bookmark for this page to quickly access it later.
In your mobile web browser, tap the Choose Files button and browse to the location where DJI Fly (or other DJI app) stores TXT flight logs.
Note: If using an Android mobile device, you might not have permission to browse to the location where your TXT flight logs are stored depending on your version of Android OS. If that’s the case, you can use this transfer method instead to transfer your flight logs by connecting your Android mobile device to your computer with a USB cable.
The selected flight logs will be instantly transferred to Flight Reader over your local network and start processing right away. Watch the status at the bottom left corner of the Flight Reader window to see when the processing has completed.
Security
The Flight Log Transfer Service listens for incoming transfer requests on all private local interfaces and is accessible from private IPs like 192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, 172.x.x.x, or localhost.
A Windows firewall rule named Flight Reader Flight Log Transfer Service manages which external devices can access the service. By default, all devices on your local network are allowed to connect. You can adjust this rule if you need to control which external devices can connect.
