Really? Iāve not known that. Thought it was taken out of your data allowance? crikey Im always tethering to my phoneā¦might explain why I cant afford any holidays!
So if you have to tether it ,another thing to set up you might as well use your phone !! Personally I would like a 50 inch flat screen to see what I am doing and also let passers by insight
This normally depends on if youāre on Three and have an iPhone. iPhoneās tend to use a different APN for tethering therefore it can be spotted by the network, and Three because they have such high data allowances they donāt want users smashing their network capacity by tethering.
This is just me, but I prefer a degree of replaceability. With a combined screen/controller if one breaks then you lose both. At least today I can swap out the screen or swap out the controller independently and at a lower cost.
Put mine through company but donāt think thereās any chance of me buying one of these anyway , and thatās saying a lot from me as I love spending money hence three drones five bikes four cars two houses lol
Having seen the new MP2 Enterprise Edition with the FLIR camera, there seems to be a real DJI focus on providing for commercial opportunities, such as emergency services, and I think that the smart controller is aimed mostly at these. Such organisations would prefer an āall-in -oneā option that means they donāt have to buy phone or tablet separately but have the complete equipment combined, which will probably make it cheaper for them, especially as it can come under one service contract.
I am considering the MP2 at the moment and this is interesting. I like the idea of it combined as one - which should make it more reliable - but then does it remove the option of a bigger screen - oh decisions, decisions!!!
I think having the option to buy the M2P with the new controller as an āadd onā probably the best option.
At least you can go back to using your phone or ipad, etc with the original controller.
If something were to go wrong with the New controller (and it was bought as part of a package) your knackered !, with no 2nd back up system.
