Fixed mistakes in definition of $\psi$ and $\phi$.
Apr 15, 2020 at 9:42 comment added Ben Smith @Watson you're right, I compounded a few typos in my working. I think you might have an $i$ too many on the $y$-coordinate of $\phi$, too. Will update my answer accordingly.
Apr 14, 2020 at 18:38 comment added Watson I think that taking $\dfrac{X + i}{X - i}$ in the first coordinate of $\psi$, and by taking $$\phi(u,v) = \left( -i \cdot\frac{u + i}{u - i}, i \cdot\frac{(i-1)v}{(u-i)^2} \right),$$ does give a morphism $f_1$ which is defined over $\Bbb F_p$.
Apr 14, 2020 at 15:17 comment added Watson Dear Ben Smith, thank you so much for your helpful answer. But why is $f_1$ defined over $\Bbb F_p$ ? According to my computation, the second component is not invariant under swapping $i$ and $-i$ (set e.g. $X=0, Y=1, p=7$, so $d=2$).
