    Hi folks. I've just taken custody of my first drone! The Inspire 1 Pro. But it's just sitting there doing nothing at the moment because I don't yet have a tablet for it. Problem is, the chap at Heliguy said many people are using and liking the Nvidia Sheild K1. Apparently it works well and is very reasonably priced (c. £180). Unfortunately, they seen very hard to come by.
    What other tablets would you recommend? Any advice will be gratefully received! Thanks, guys.

    iPad mini 2 or 3 works well.

    Thanks Jonathan. Looking at this and other forums (fora?) I think I was tending towards this. Many thanks for getting back.
    Alan.

    I've been happy with that. Also have a Sony Xperia Z3 phone as a backup.

    Thank you Boycelee. That's what I went for in the end. Unfortunately, I bought the cellular one for £369 rather than non-cellular for about £179. Ah well. At least I've got one.

    You could get a sim card for it so it can update google maps without wifi, if you can find a nice data deal?
