Using the MM with iPad.

[starcott]

My iPad fits perfectly into the RC, but I am struggling to get a suitable cable to make a connection between them.

I have noticed some pilots have bought something suitable both in US and in Germany, using their local Amazon.

I have not been able to track down anything in the UK.

What would be the correct description of the cable I need? What is the correct name for the socket on the side of the RC? Is the iPad socket called a ' lightening'?

If any can direct me to the correct item to buy, I will be most thankful.

Check out thors drone world products. Assuming your iPad has a lighting port (I believe the latest pro has usb-c), you'll want a OTG Micro USB to Lightning cable.

I have an Ipad Mini 4 and got mine from Drone Valley DJI Mavic Mini - For Apple Devices - Custom Data Cable (30cm) - Lightning

Thank you for your answers, but so far, I have not been able to locate such a cable which can be obtained in the UK.

Thor cable has my vote. The stretch value is where it shines.

Agree with Starz, an excellent Cable. Takes a little longer to arrive here in the US (as expected) but worth the wait.
I have a Spare Thor's Cable for the Mini and iPad. If anyone is interested, contact me via Conversations.

Silly part for me was I ordered one just before Christmas and then they put them on half price sale a few days after I placed the order. I should have waited. Oh well, live and learn!
