What compatible screens rather then phones are used?

Phantom 3 Standard

Wonder what other than smart phones can be used. To have benefit of larger views? My Android screen is OK but to use a Laptop or other with a big screen would be sweet!!)

Any successful users of alternate to smart phones? With P3 Standard…

I guess most people use iPads or tablets. Heaps of info on this forum.

I fly a DJI Mini 2 and I use two different Android Tablet, one a Galaxy A8 with a 10"-screen, but it’s heavy (1.25-lbs) and a Galaxy S2 with an 8" screen, with mych better video and it only weighs 8-ounces…

Both require an adapter to fit the controller. I made the RED bracket out of plexiglass, but you can buy commercial ones…

Thanks for that ^^^ reply… my standard 3 does not have that black cable…

What does it do?

I used to use Tripltek Pro8, but since I have gotten more into drone automation, I found I needed the power of an iPad Mini (latest Gen.)

I fly a Mini 2 and the black cable connects the controller to the device (could be a phone, but in this instance, it connects to my tablet…). Doesn’t your P3 use a big white cable?

My Phantom 3 uses wi fi to communicate to control.

Just orderd a Samsung tablet. We shall se how it goes. Expect it to work like my S9+ Samsung but with the big screen.

Just remember, I said that my A8 Tablet is heavy, I do not know which tablet you bought, but expect it to be heavier, much heavier than your phone…

Good Luck, you might need a neck brace…

If your Phantom 3 Standard still has the phone clip installed, you may want to consider installing a tablet holder. There used to be lots available on Amazon but I used the holder made for the Inspire and followed the instructions from msinger, the owner of this site.

Here they are: Phantom 3 Standard tablet holder

I still use my P3S after all these years and it still flies great snd the tablet holder is rock solid.

Thanks for that Chris ^^^ Since I orderd the big Samsung unit. I will just sit it side by side for starters. When I fly generally sit in a Adirondack chair so the monitor can be moved to my lap or arms of chair.
