As the title says, do all iPad minis have a 64bit processor?

I'm looking to replace my faithful old 8" Nvidia Shield with something of similar size as the App for flying my new drone, a DJI Mini2, only runs on 64bits.

Thank you

Check the app’s minimum iOS version as well. The mini 2 only goes up to iOS 12 and is no longer being updated. Also, it can be quite laggy. Even the mini 4 is pretty laggy.

I highly suggest going up to the mini 5 if possible. The performance improvement is huge.

Top advice I think. Anything mini 5 or later are great choices, also from a battery standpoint. Being stranded in the field with an empty control unit is no fun.
