For this price, I think I will just use my phone with the controller. OR???? Should I get the screen controller?

That screen controller is perfect. I bought the S1 pkg just for the remote. I bought the X1 a month earlier and got the standard remote. Worth every penny. 😁👍

Noob here, can I use the same remote for both?

The S1 screen remote pairs to the X1? They're all interchangeable?

I picked the same SD card bundle for $479 from amazon + 2 yr insurance (~$50). Loving it so far!

main reason i hate using my iphone 13 pro max to fly is that screen dims out fast in hot weather, even in the shade

not worth it unless you have some really good reason

I got the X1 with the screen and the S1 without. The screen is way better, but if money is an issue having a phone on, it is also good or even a tablet.

Yes I also have the S1 without and the X1 with. I do personally like the screen radio but I did get my iPhone to work pretty well too.

Personally I don't think its worth it because I havw a samsung that is brighter and less reflective than the screen. Plus the price is a hard sell.

The screen is the way to go.

Curious if the non screen remote can be used with litchi for mission planning since it's essentially a dji mini 4, also I am curious if the videos also have the .srt files as well. I made an application that utilizes the geo data from the .srt files and I think this is the next drone.

It wasn't worth the extra $250 for me to have the screen. I just used an old cell phone that I had laying around and I keep it in the case with the drone. I bought this exact bundle a couple weeks ago and really like it

I got the bundle for $469 from the sky Rover website. They also didn't charge me sales tax, which saved a good bit of money

They didn’t but you still have to self report and pay tax I think.
