SteamEngineer - The Remote Controller will last through all 3 batteries and more. You might not be aware the controller is charging/ attempting to charge your device constantly. One advantage Apple devices have with the Mini 2 has an option to turn off charging on ios devices only! I am an Android user so not pushing anything as I have a Samsung Galaxy s10e. If you have any questions I can answer let me know.
Thanks all I decided to go with the Samsung 10.5" Galaxy Tab S6 256GB Tablet (Wi-Fi Only, Mountain Gray). My elf friends tell me to wait for Xmas, because Momma Santa may have already known about unit I was wanting. So I will hold off few more weeks, if Santa doesn't come through will grab it after Xmas.
My $89 ONN Walmart tablet is meantime is working fine, besides delay on video feeds. I am keeping it close by and just doing lots of practice flying as I learn my new drone. Right away, I can tell I need to order skin for it to make it stand out, my 50 year old eyes can't track it well against white to gray backdrop at any type of distance. So new skins are ordered up. Very happy with new Tablet holder, I use neckstrap and it balances quite well, very natural and of course much easier to fly now.
I am new to hobby, so I am keeping drone at limit in height and distance when learning, I will not allow fly away to happen. I am quickly becoming very proficient with flying this drone. To date I can say I am very happy with purchase. When I gain more confidence in my flying abilitiy I will open up my limits a bit more on my max acceptable distances horizontally and vertically. My main purpose of purchase was to use as inspection drone, and for some video work.
I am very pleased with overall video quality on this unit. Last ight, at dusk flight I dropped camera at 4k into full manual mode on settings to get video bright enough, increasing shutter speed and iso settings. Very pleased with outcome after adjustments. I still have yet had chance to test the various preset video features out, that will come when I have more flying time, currently stuck on 16-12hr plus shifts in a row, be some time before I see much daylight and have chance. Also, 3 days back while flying on cold day, the drone spoke to me suggesting I land that it was too cold 2oF to safely fly without risk to unit, I had to acknowledge if I wanted to continue to fly. I quickly agreed to land, my hands were frozen, so nice to see it has built in warnings when flying in weather temps outside it's rated capacities.
