Received my 7.85 High Brightness unit today.  Unit works great!.  I can now see clearly in the sunlight without hoods or other accessories.  Performance so far has been very smooth.  I use a Phantom 4 with the CrystalSky.  I also have a MavicAir that I use with an iPad Mini4. I may eventually get a smaller CrystalSky for it.

I have since installed Litchi on the CrystalSky and that seems to work well too.  Will know more tomorrow after some planned mission flights that I regularily use.

Seems a good investment thus far.

Litchi  flights seem to work fine as well.  Downloading the HDSYNC also uploads all flight data to AIRDATA UAV.

I have both the 7.85 UB and the 5.5. The UB gets overheated at temps over 80 deg F. It flat gets super hot and quits working properly. Plus battery run times are 2.5 hours max. I have replaced it under warranty twice. Updates to the system and GO4 come very slow another concern. Good luck with yours hope all goes well

I read about the UB model and decided to go with the less hot, less bright HB model.  So far it  has worked with with no battery issues or heat.

Ok, thanks! I think it's only with MA you have the problem. By the way, why not use the CS 7.85" for the MA to, I do...
I'm using a Mavmount 3 to hold it and under transport it fits real snug without the battery in the outer pocket of the fly mor combo bag. The bracket and battery goes inside the bag.

Today I have a dedicated iPad Mini 4 for the MA.  For some rocket related days. I use both drones at the same time, so need two separate displays.  I will probably get a holder for the CS similar to the one I have the iPad and the one you show for those cases when I want to use the MA with CS.
