I have the controller with the screen on it, but the screen is too small for times when I need to see details. So I just ordered an RC-N1 controller off eBay. For $40!

I'm hoping to use it with my 12.9" iPad Pro. I picked up this tablet holder:

Does anyone have any other recommendations?

And is there anything I need other than the USB C to lightening cable? I bought this one:

Anything else I need to fly a Mini 3 Pro with an iPad?

Any tips?

That is a huge Ipad and will be very hard to hold and operate. Also I am not sure the DJI Fly app is optimised for such a large screen. I have used the Ipad mini and that was very good

Just wanted to post an update: it works fantastically! The only downside is that it completely covers the remote, so you're operating the remote blindly behind the iPad, but that's easy enough even for a newbie like me. I do have to look behind the iPad occasionally to find for example the return home button, but that's easy enough. And the tablet holder I linked to above is rock solid and fits the 12.9" iPad Pro perfectly.
