Hi all
Following on from my previous query (P4P or I1?) I have settled on the P4P and would like your opinion on whether the following combo works, and especially if it doesn't because of some software incompatibility I'm unaware of:
P4P teamed with an iPad Mini 4.
Now I'm aware that there is a bit of an Apple / Android 'debate' and I'd rather steer clear of that. I've chosen the M4 because I believe most of DJIs apps are 'optimised' for Apple devices; it contains all the required tech specs and it would be a convenient size for me to lug around.
So my query is that at some time in the future I will probably start to use other apps than DJI ones - DroneDeploy, Litchi, MapsMadeEasy, etc are some of the ones that come to mind as popular ones that appear to be used fairly frequently by the more experienced pilots. Am I unintentionally limiting myself in terms of what I could use with my choice of tablet? Also, would I need a sunshade to use the M4 as DJI state their Pro+ display is bright enough to not need one - thereby implying that other devices require them?!
Finally as it is quite a step up from a M4 screen of 7.9" to the 12" or so of an iPad Air (in price and to cart around) is this screen size 'large enough' to be useful or does the smaller screen make life difficult when flying the P4P or trying to obtain images?
As ever, thanks in advance for your replies.
