Crystalsky comes without charging cable!

[Cyclone1]

After a few slip ups, my Crystalsky ultra bright monitor finally arrived. Unfortunately, it did not come with a cord to connect the charger to 110 outlet. Any suggestions?

It states on page 3 of instructions for Crystalsky downloaded from Dji store you receive charging hub .You do not connect this to 110/240 volts you use your own charger from drone for batteries etc to connect to charging hub.Since i do not own a Crystalsky i may be wrong but if i am correct and you plug charging hub into mains power then it will bang and jump of the floor a little followed with perhaps a puff of smoke.
If you still require a cord i would assume it is a" figure of eight" available from most electrical outlets for approx £4 UK

So, Mavic 2 and Mavic Air use same batteries?

No they are different.

The CrystalSky charger is supplied power using either an inspire or phantom power supply. The cable used to charge the inspire/phantom is also used to connect to the CrystalSky charger.

Crystalsky is "NOT" compatible with Mavic Air, and perhaps all Mavics. What a HUGE waste of time and $$$ that could easily have been avoided with a simple note of explanation in regard to drone compatability.

Crstalsky monitors are not compatible with Mavic Air, and perhaps many other DJI drones! A simple note in regard to compatibility would have avoided a friggin HUGE waste of my time and $$$!

What part of the CRYSTALSKY monitor is not compatible with the MAVIC AIR and perhaps other DJI DRONES. I used mine with my MAVIC SPARK and now my MAVIC AIR and my MAVIC2 ZOOM and have no problems. The charging is done by removing the battery and using a charging hub into mains power 110/240v

After speaking with DJI about charging the Crystal Sky and getting no answers, I asked if it was compatible with mavic air. The representative wrote back NO it wasn't. See screen shot attached.

I bought the inspire charger when I had the crystalsky...
That’s what was recommended to me because of its power..
Look around on line someone might be getting rid of one, I think I paid $20... I just sold my CS w/2 inspire chargers (don’t ask how I ended up with 2) when I got the smart controller for the Mavic 2 pro.....

 

[Captain Lou]

I have the cable also that you can use if you have the m2p

The CS itself is compatible with all Phantoms and Mavics that use Go 3 or 4. Granted there have been delays in CS updates to accommodate new drones. Otherwise they connect the same way as any other Android mobile device.

The issue is about charging. The CS does not come with a charger because it was intended that you use the Phantom charger in the same way you charge the Phantom RC. I agree it should come with a charger, but you can easily purchase one or get an adapter that will let you use your Mavic charger as if the CS were an AC battery.

Thanks for the reply. I ordered one yesterday from Amazon that looks like it will work.
