Hi,

I flew v0.7b2 today with iFly on my '720 and a Android device. In less than one hour I lost ground reception at least 10 times on both devices while receiving 4 to 6 towers. It always restored connection without any intervention on my behalf in 30 to 180 seconds. Everything on the Web UI looked fine. Everything on the iFly connected devices page looked fine except for "ground link status"

Please help. 

I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.

v0.7x is > 2 years old; ancient and buggy.  You should update to the latest Stratux version, and because your version is so old it'll require a reflash of the SD card (find instructions via a Google search).  I had the same issue long ago where I would not get wx data, but traffic was fine.  After much trial and error, I discovered that the SD card was nearly full.  I was able to delete the Stratux log files in flight and the issue was promptly resolved.  In your case, reflashing to the latest Stratux version will get you up to date and clean the SD card, too.
