Improvising a mounting system for larger tablets and pads!

Well now let me show you my answer to the problem of visibility!

As others have mentioned, sometimes in bright sunshine it's not easy to see the screen and your Mavic (or other) at the same time.
So I devised a very practical wearable ground station which does the job perfectly for me. Allows me to see controller, screen and drone with best viewing angles - I can't fly without it now - tell me what you think!

Phil: I think the comment was meant to be humorous as I seriously doubt the idea is even feasible.

But I am not here for humor and posts like that take up valuable space here. And I know it’s not feasible.

Lol it was a semi serious post.

Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined someone trying this! The screen brightness was a small problem but I got quite a few laughs out of Peter and his ingenuity. Thanks for the grins.

A much professional job than my throw-together. Well done. But how do you pack that in a fly-more bag? (sorry, Inspirephil)

If I saw someone wearing that contraption I would be looking for a way bigger toy than our DJI stuff . Like a 1/2 scale helicopter or something like that . [emoji41]

Would be nice to somehow hookup and have a live feed to the tv so others can watch without gathering around a small tiny phone or tablet.

I already did it with Miracast (Screen Share) of my Android Tablet. Of course your TV must support it. If not you can always use a device with HDMI output. Or Livestream.

No Problems - I just carry it in my van, use it for every flight, much easier to control when wrists are resting on side pads (good for shaky hands)
