Group: Forum Members Posts: 11, Visits: 15	I have just bought a tablet (Samsung Tab 2 8 inch) to fit to my aircraft to use SkyDemon in flight and I am wondering how big an SD card to go for? I know it's 'how long is a piece of string' but is 32Gb big enough to hold a reasonable amount of data/logs etc? ‌H‌ow fast a card? I guess I don't need 4K HDR ‌speeds for data? Or is is worth going for this anyway? T‌hanks C‌hris‌‌

It's fits easily and runs really fast without having to worry about whether the external card is fast enough (or has corrupted and therefore left you helpless in mid-air). D‌ave‌
