Has anyone flown the P3 with a Nexus 6 smart phone? Any reason I shouldn't?...I dont see it on the DJI's list of preferred devices. I'm concerned.
Concerned about what exactly? If you mean concerned about buying one just for FPV and finding out it doesn't work, don't... use a tablet. If you mean you already own it but are concerned it might crash your bird, don't be. I have not heard of an Android device with recent specs that hasn't worked w/ the pilot app.Has anyone flown the P3 with a Nexus 6 smart phone?

Like what? I have a Shield, which is unsupported, and the menus are all complete.I was using a Tab 4 and found that I was not getting all the optionsm on the menus. DJI said that was because I was not using the tested tablet that they have verified works. Very furstrating.

You won't crash because of an unsupported device since the controller is what controls the quad. The nexus 6 is a pretty nicely spec'd device, so other than the small screen being an issue, I can't imagine there would be any others. Then again, if it's all you have and you don't want to buy another device, what choice do you have?I already own a Nexus 6...and I dont want to have to buy something different to get full functionality or void any type of warrant in the event of a crash due to using an "unsupported" device.

it wont. there were guys flying with a piece of crap $30 Moto G for a while before the iOS app came out, and they had no problems controlling the bird.Well...if flying with Nexus 6 results in something crazy like a voided warranty or even worse a fly away, then Id buy something from the prefered list to fly with.
@Martin Craig did you solve your problems?
I'm downgrading my N6 to Lollipop, to test the connectivity. MM won't connect.
I'm happy that I'm able to use DJI GO with Lollipop (after the downgrade), but loosing all the things that Android 6 has to offer makes me angry.Just got my P3Pro along with a major Arctic Cold air mass pushing the Jet stream far south of me so doing some reading and.
Please let us know how the Downgrade from Marshmallow goes..............would hate to borrow family members MiniPAd
