HELP my cable won't plug in

[Offshore]

I just bought the P3P and tried to connect using the enclosed cable to my IPad Mini 3.
The cable plug won't go into the Pad.
It has 2 small metal bumps on it that prevents it from going into the Pads charge port.
Anyone have this issue ?
Haven't flown yet.

You should be able to use any lightning cable to connect

Is it common for the one they shipped me not to be able to plug in ?
Sorry but what is a lightning cable ?
Can I just buy something at Best Buy ?

I don't have the Pro, so can't say what's in the box for sure. But I think the cable supplied is micro-USB for charging the radio. THe Lightning cable is the cable you use to connect your iPad to a charger or PC, the USB plug goes into the back of the radio

That cable is not an iPad plug. It's a micro USB plug for the phantom and android devices. You need to use your apple cable to plug in.

You need something like this. Amazon.com: Perfect Size for DJI Inspire 1 Phantom 4 Phantom 3 Remote Control with iPad Air Mini, Cambond Apple MFi Certified 1ft Lightning Cord Nylon Braided for iPhone 7 7 Plus 6 6 plus 5 iPod( Solid Silver ): Cell Phones & Accessories

In the meantime us your iPad charger cable and coil up the excess cable so you don't get tangled up in it.
