An ideal Tablet.

But the Tripltek 8 Pro seems too have a very heavy surround or is that a case that comes off? Also way out of my budget

Yes it does, a thick padding, it doesn't come off. It fits fine in my DJI controller with the slim DoBo plate screwed to the back. I can't help you with the budget - in general, you get what you pay for.
