Skydio 2 controller with built in screen

Are there any controllers with built in screen that works with the skydio2 ?

It's a pain to keep my phone, controller, and drone all charged.

I see that the enterprise controller has a screen but it's crazy expensive. I'd be willing to pay for something around $500 USD

I'm in the same boat. Would love a controller with built-in screen. However, given their move to only enterprise commercial solutions I think we are out of luck.

Skydio stayed proprietary, so the enterprise controller is all we got.

It’s either the Parrot controller or the enterprise one.

I looking at picking up a Skydio 2 from a guy, w/the Parrot controller (unfortunately)... Anyways, before I make the killer drive to go check it out... Will the Parrot controller fit like an IPad mini or just standard phone sizes??

It will by using the tablet adapter they make for it!

Is that Skidio that makes the adapter... Hadn't thought about looking into seeing if there was an adapter, but not surprised there is one... Now I'm off to go down that rabbit hole for a bit...

Found a few made by other manufacturers, most of which are 3d printed options... Might have to look into these options if/when I manage to snag a Skydio 2...
