  3. On the controller open the downloads app and install the APK. 
  4. Once the patch is installed, open the controller's settings app and find
    Settings -> DJILAB.
  5. In the DJILAB panel there is a toggle with Chinese text, please make sure this toggle is enabled.

    The 5D button should now work with Measure Ground Control.
