I just got the phone and got the lifeproof case. I should be getting my Mavic in a couple weeks. Does anyone know if I will still be able to hook it up to the controller with this case on?
Thanks,

Nope - definitely not possible... however... you can use a torx screwdriver to unscrew one side of the grippy thingsI just got the phone and got the lifeproof case.

check out this thread - DIY mod for using a phone with case attached
↑↑↑ What he said. Its a pain in the neck to keep removing your case when you fly, so removing one side of the friction grips is one way to go and your phone will still be secure in the grips.
BTW congrats on your incoming Mav. The iPhone 7 and Mav are are fantastic combination.
Nice solution, but I for one, like the egonomics of having the phone display above the controller, not below.

Can you show some pics of it without the tab on there, and folded up?
It looks pretty solid and with that long cable, you dont have to fiddle with getting the connector to fit through the grip and hoping it stays in.
Just use a t5 torx screwdriver and take the three screws out of each holder so you can remove the rubber grippy things.For the record. My 7 non plus with a normal slim case won't fit. I too hate constantly taking it in and out of the case to fly. I've thought about dremeling out some material carefully but have been just gambling with a no case situation instead!
Any ideas where to buy spare "rubber grippy things"?Just use a t5 torx screwdriver and take the three screws out of each holder so you can remove the rubber grippy things.
I did that and my iPhone 7 in my otterbox defender fits just fine.
The DJI data cord doesn't work with my phone case, but I got the cord from drone valley and it works great with my 7, and my iPad in a defender case.
