I am having a problem with the touch screen on my iFly 720.  When I touch the lower right corner it tries to select "one line up".  For instance, selecting Instrument Group, then trying to select Close instead selects the line above.  Likewise, when in Flight Plan I cannot select Close or Save.  It can also be difficult to select North Up/Track Up and Inst Group on the main screen.  Essentially, any controls in the lower right corner have become very difficult to acces.

Some times I can get a selection to take by tapping the very bottom of the screen with my finger nail, but not always.

Is there a fix for this?

One obvious fix would be to treat yourself to a new iFly740.

There is a "recalibrate screen" process that I had to use on the 720, a couple of times ----- I do not remember the details, but, basically you chase a "bug" around the screen, touching the screen at designated spots ----- maybe someone on here can tell you exactly how to do it.

 I had a IFly 700 that did that and  after returning to IFly,  they discovered a  failed  screen.  Thats how I  upgraded to the 720 which I still have presently.  Maybe time for the upgrade !    Best I remember they treated me well with that  swap out.  The 720  processor was a mega step up for me and I bet the 740  would be the same over a 720.

On my 740, if you exit the iFly program and go to the main menu screen, touch Settings>Screen>Calibration  I would imagine it's similar on the 720.
