Aloha Aristo,

     Yes, it is possible to have no problems flying untested tablets.  But the tablet or phone you choose will need to be fairly new and with multi-processors (CPU and Video) and lots of RAM.  I fly a nVidia Shield K1 which is not made or sold new anymore.

Aloha and Drone On!

Hi, we would recommend using a compatible device ensure the stability of the application while flying. However, we're sure that our valued DJI Forum members would provide their feedback when using a different mobile device that is not included incompatible devices. Should you have further concern, please let us know. Thank you for your support.
