I posted a video to the forum about using an DJI RC2 controller with an iPad Pro as a second monitor and thought i’d introduce myself.
My name is Nigel, I also go by a nickname of Hogarth and actually have a primary YT channel focusing on Astrophotography - Hogarth’s Astrophotography if you want to look it up. I take deep space pictures of the night sky.
I started my drone life off with an original Mavic Pro, but have owned :
DJI Mavic Pro
DJI Mavic Pro 2
DJI Phantom 4 Pro Obsidian
Current fleet
DJI Air 3
DJI Mavic 3 Pro
DJI Mini 3 Pro
DJI Mini 4 Pro
DJI RC2
DJI RC Pro
I live in rural North Yorkshire, about 10 miles north of York itself.
I have 3 kids all pretty much grown up, married and sort of semi-retired due to health issues.
Hi and welcome bud, I’m in North Yorks too, Sherburn in Elmet, saw the video, I’m happy with the RC2, tried an iPad 12.9 Pro a few years ago, was just way too big
