Hi all,

I own a mavic + a p4 pro. I've been using my iphone 6s plus to fly for a long time but I'm thinking of buying either an ipad mini or an iPad Air, however, I cannot decide which one to get due to the difference in size and portability. Might upgrade to an inspire later on thus a tablet will defeinitely come in handy.

Are the smaller 7" tablets big enough for flying or should I go with a full sized tablet? Which one do you use?

I have two Phantoms - one I fly using the iPhone 7, the other with an iPad Mini 2. Either works, but obviously you have more flight video space with the Mini 2 - easier to observe and avoid objects. But check the capabilities of the Mavic controller before making a call. A larger screen may not fit...

I know it doesn't fit so I might have to get  a mount for it..

I have the iPad Pro 9.7 which fits snuggly into the holder with two clicks on the ratchet to hold it firmly in place. Some use the iPad Air2 which I believe is the same size.

Just picked up the IPAD 2017 for my P4Pro. I CAN SEE AGAIN!

Now I'm looking for a slim case and screen protector.

I have a P4P and originally bought an Nvidia Shield K1.
I started regretting it right after the first DJI Go update.
All info said to go backwards with the Shield Firmware but I am not
savy enough to do it.

Bought my first iPad, Pro 9.7" and its the best. Can see everything and its bright too.
