Does anyone know the output current rating on the USB-A connector on the bottom of the Mavic 2 controller.

Since the bottom port can be used for both data and to charge a phone or iPad, the output current of that 5V port would be good to know. Anyone?
 
I have seen 0.41A reported by a USB volt/ammeter when a phone was connected to a controller with a 51% charge. From memory it was at slightly over 5V.
I wouldn't go experimenting to find the upper limit, it might be an expensive experiment.

I've not done any official testing with a device to measure the output but I tried a number of devices that support different fast charging or higher current charging and none of them showed the controller was outputting more than 500mA.
