I recently purchased an ipad for my Pro Platinum. The only way I find it comfortablele to fly is if i hold the contoller and I-pad in my lap against my knew. That requires me to sit down. Is there a platform or small table I can purchase to screw on to my camera tripod and use to rest my controller on while standing?

If you're so inclined, maybe use a pad holder along with a lanyard. I string the lanyard from the pad base through the bottom of the holding clip. I do it this way to control my intention shake in my hands (old people). ?

Why not a monopod? You can move that thing around. They have some lightweight ones on amazon.

I've got one of these and it holds my 12.9" iPad Pro on a tripod very nicely. I haven't used this setup for flying but with a long enough, good quality USB / Lightning or USB-C cable it should work great. Hmmm... I may have to look into doing this sometime..... :)
