Hi Frank, if you want something to unpack and use without any fuss then the plus with integrated screen is probably best, for all the screen is better than any tablet in bright light conditions. You should however, be aware that the controller is limited to what DJI provides and use of third party software is not possible. The complaints in this forum about the plus are primarily when pilots want to develop their skills and hobby outside of the DJI set limits. For your job alone that should be no serious problem. Either which way you get the same bird, it is identical, it is only the controller that is different.
To the theme software, there is much discussion about problems here. Some, indeed many of the problems are self made. Against this, there are hundreds of thousand of people who have never ever had a problem; they are the silent majority. Apple and Android develop their software for their own gains; indeed they must; a manufacturer like DJI tries to keep up; not an enviable task. Sure DJI make mistakes but I am sure they try their best, they also work closely with Apple on joint marketing and promotion.
I do not believe that there is a danger of DJI blowing up your iPad or phone, or the GO app eating your client database. But like a wise doctor I offer no guarantees.
Whatever you decide, you are more likely to end up with a system that works and works well with a quality mostly not found elsewhere. Just remember its a high-tech game and requires high-tech equipment, this ages quickly and sometimes needs replacing or at minimum, time and effort to keep it up to date.
All the best for your studies - Dockater. |
