Well I can now join this exclusive club!
I've decided to go for my drone license as I work in offshore inspection and I think it's the way things are going. Plus I've wanted one for ages...
After a frankly ridiculous amount of research I decided to go all in, and now own a DJI Inspire 2 with the X5 camera.
First flight was yesterday, interrupted by my android tablet having a hissy fit and disconnecting from the system, thankfully RTH worked just fine and it returned safely.
I flew again today, tablet still wasn't working but my IPhone worked ok. Re-installing the app seems to have cleared the problem but I noticed that IPhone App seemed to work better.
Couple of my first (crap) photos, the local industrial estate provided an area without people, traffic or stuff to hit.

I think the IOS app is generally more stable than the Android.I've decided to go for my drone license as I work in offshore inspection and I think it's the way things are going. Plus I've wanted one for ages...

Mind you DJi are frankly annoying with their updates, and they often frequently break stuff with them. Try to switch autoupdate off, and let others test them first!

I updated 2 years ago and it was such a faff, and screwed stuff up, I have never done it since. If it ain’t broke...Mind you DJi are frankly annoying with their updates, and they often frequently break stuff with them. Try to switch autoupdate off, and let others test them first!

I couldn't find some of the menu options on the android app, they were there with the IPhone!
Things like flight modes (atti etc) were disabled until I plugged in my phone. An IPad has been added to the xmas list, I'll use my wife's one for the time being.
Having a look through the DJI forums seems to confirm the Apple bias with the app.
I'm very impressed with the Inspire though! Think I'll book the course for January to give me plenty of time to build up confidence flying it.
