    Satellite/LTE control Mavic Pro/Pro Platinum

    Hi Guys, I know I am new to the forum (I am a satellite, chemistry and saltwater reef guy) but I have been interested in developing an alternative signal method to control your Mavic Pro, pro platinum and even more expensive units like the Inspire 2 and Matrice. Now there are really two...

    MavicPro not connecting to controller

    Hi I’ve had my Mavic Pro repaired following a crash, but when I took it out of the box, it is not connecting to the controller. Is there something I have to do to reconnect them? I didn’t have to do anything when I got it new. Many thanks DC

    Controller's focus wheel is not working

    Hi guys, As some of you may know when in manual focus it can be adjusted by press and hold C1 and then start rolling the left wheel. As soon I start rotating the wheel with the C1 pressed not only the focus changes but the camera also start moving up or down at the same time. So it looks like...

    iPhone 6s not connecting to controller

    I recently upgraded the DJI Go 4 app on my iphone 6S (running 10.3.3), and now it will not connect to the controller, or when it does, it will disconnect randomly every few seconds. I have made sure all software is up to date on Mavic and controller, have deleted and reinstalled the app on...

    How do you set C1, C2, and 5D?

    New to drone flying. So far so good, but I would like to know how more experienced users have their programable buttons set, and why they chose those options. Thanks in advance.

    using CrystalSky to charge Mavic Pro Controller

    If you study the battery capacity (flying time) of the Mavic Pro (21min per battery), the Controller battery life (quotes a 5-6 flights - say 2 hrs max) and the life of the CrystalSky monitor 4-5 hrs plus the ability to easily change batteries in the Mavic Pro and the CrystalSky, then it is...

    Best combo for firmware and app versions?

    With all the discussions about firmware versions, I am just curious if the newest apps are backwards compatible with older firmware and what others think is the best combination of Drone / RC / Battery firmware & App version? Thanks in advance.

    Mavic Controller - iPhone Charge

    Are there any conditions under which the Mavic Remote Control charges an iPhone? There are two ways to connect the Controller to the iPhone: 1) slipping the phone into the Controller "claws" and attaching the short cable to the side of the Controller and 2) attaching a USB cable to the "back"...

    Safe Controller Charging

    Hey folks. I've had my Mavic for about a month and didn't consider battery safety at all when I bought it. Fast forward that month and I've opted for the "better safe than sorry" approach and bought a Bat-Safe and some LiPo bags. I figure my house and family's lives are worth more than the $80...

    Black box data from controller or Mavic... is it the same?

    I've noticed that if you connect the Mavic Pro to DJI assistant 2 there is an option to download "black box" data to your computer. I've also noticed that when you connect the controller to DJI Assistant 2 there is also an option there to download black box data. Are they the same or different?

    Vehicle roof mount antenna?

    Hey guys, first off no intention of flying while in a moving vehicle. What I'm hoping to find is an antenna mount I could put on the roof (magnet or whatever) that I could run a cable from to the mavic controller while I'm in the cab. Any helpful thoughts would be appreciated

    Is NFZ updated through updating the controller or the actual drone?

    I'm new here, so sorry if I'm posting this in a wrong area. I was curious if the No Fly Zone maps is updated from updating the controller individually or the drone. Thank you.

    Fan Noise from Controller

    Is it normal for the controller fan to be this loud? (video below) https://s3.amazonaws.com/dji-video/VID_20170709_175407.mp4 This noise starts about ten minutes into flight. I fly with an iPad Mini and keep the video settings on "Normal" in the DJI app. I just received this unit from Amazon...

    Controller Calibration - how?

    My mavic has developed a constant, slow, smooth left yaw. IMU, compass and other calibrations are good. In the controller config i can see a slight left bar from the top of the square so its leading me to believe i need to calibrate the controller. The problem is, i can't.... Controller is...

    Buzzing sound from controller

    Anyone else have a buzzing sound off their MP controller? I got a replacement MP today after a horizon tilt issue and noticed a buzzing sound coming off the controller. Didn't have it on my last one, not that I remember anyway! Cheers in advance

    Controller connects fine, but mavic won't take off

    I saw some videos showing people pairing 2 controllers, a primary and a secondary, and thought it looked cool enough to buy an extra used controller off ebay. I updated the remote control firmware and paired both controllers to the mavic. My original controller works fine (even as the...

    Controller 5D button missing a pressing option

    Hey guys, I'm new to the forums :) I got my Mavic a couple of months ago and already had quite a lot of fun with it. I've dug through every bit of setting I could find on the app out of curiosity, and noticed a little but interesting point - I realized that not only the tiny 5D joystick on the...
