I have been using DJI Fly with an Ipad Pro First Gen 2016. (Model A-1673). I used it with the original Mini and currently with the Mini 2. I need to close out all other apps and go into airplane mode to avoid the device overload warning message, but it works fine. I much prefer using a large screen instead of a phone. I have a 2023 Ipad Pro, but by keeping the old one permanently devoted and attached to the tablet holder, which is attached to the controller, I never have to hassle with taking the new Ipad in and out of its case. The controller of course doesn't fit in the case anymore, so I just toss everything onto the car's back seat when I travel.......I also have an old Fire HD 10, which didn't work my Mini 2 when I got it, but I see it is now supported by DJI Fly. Maybe that would work even better than the old Ipad?
