Did anyone find a compatible Android Tablet for the mini 2

Hi, a few more things about selecting a tablet to use

  1. You want the T290 (T295 is still 8”, but has phone functions)
  2. Not all Tab A’s are created equal, make sure it is 32GB with 64 bit CPU
  3. I would always recommend using a tablet holder, might be able to use the Tab A without it, but it is much cleaner with a holder
  4. Have a backup cable, I once dropped one in the field and without a backup I would have been lost
  5. I ordered a cheap case for my tablet, so when working from home it is still protected
  6. I use a protective sleeve to hold my Tab A when taking it out to the field. These are cheap tablets and I suspect they will not take too much abuse, plus dirt and grime
  7. Make sure you still have your phone as a backup, it would be a pain to get out there and have your tablet give you trouble, phone could be used if necessary

I’m sure there are other things, but that is what I have learned so far flying first with a Mini I and now with a Mavic 2. I wish it was just a fun thing, but the more you get into it, the more you should learn about flying your drone.

Happy flying, FloridaTom
