For those that are interested; after a couple of months researching i've finally pieced my controller setup, some pics below:
contents:
-- DJI Smart Controller
-- FeelWorld 7" 4k (3840x2460) 2200nits field monitor
-- LiftThor SC mount
-- SunnyLife silicone SC skin both with and without the hood (i have the hood on)
total: $921us (if you bundle the SC with an M2 subtract $200)
i'm an avid console gamer and i use silicone skins on my controllers so i searched for one for the DJI controllers, specifically the SC, and was only able to find them at a supplier in China, took a bit to get here but was well worth it, fits snugly, quality soft, pliable, silicone and a little protection against bumps and scratches plus the wear and tear of sweat, etc.. the one with the silicone hood formed in surprised me how good it looks and functional. Note the mount needs to be removed if you want to swap out the skin.
only negative is the HDMI ports for the SC and monitor are on opposite sides, it's kinking more than i like so i'll look for an inch longer, some may be OK with it as is (the HDMI cable comes with the LiftThor mount setup).
i leave the mount on permanently and if i'm just running out to do a quick flight i don't mount the monitor or if i want the total experience the monitor goes on in 2 minutes. i can fuel both the monitor and SC with power via a 2 USB Anker power supply otherwise they both will last 2ish hours on a single charge.
PS - huge shout out to the Thors DroneWorld - highly professional, quick delivery and quality product right down to the packaging, i was extremely impressed and will do more business with them as i have needs.
