    What can a controller do that an SC cant?

    alright you thrive in this type of engagement it drives you, so, you be you. ignorance has a place here whether anyone wants to admit it or not; you're a business owner so you have some martyrdom that compels you to fight for the little guy, it's good for business. experience is subjective...

    What can a controller do that an SC cant?

    so is that what this is? your deep rooted dislike for DJI? i will give you this - once upon a time i managed a help desk (staff of ~300) and our product had approx a half-million users and it's potentially jaded me, if that makes me a DJI supporter/affiliate i guess i'm guilty. it's natural...

    What can a controller do that an SC cant?

    not sure how short it shrot but here goes. Unless you can include all data points to support your theory you're no more right than anyone else and i would go as far as to say it's quite small given the total potential scope. inept is your word, i'd lean towards ignorant (by the definition...

    What can a controller do that an SC cant?

    this, this, 1000x this... Based on your bias you're going to choose whatever metric supports your theory but before anyone and argue on behalf vs against utilizing specific metrics they need to understand the total scope and this site simply doesn't provide that: # of total SC owners (only DJI...

    What can a controller do that an SC cant?

    I can confirm is does work - tested it on 2 different Win10 (BTW - the recommended OS) in the last couple of days helping a dude with his installation issues. In all actuality i had better experience with the SC than the standard RC. Straight outta the Specs page: REMOTE CONTROLLERS SUPPORTED...

    More Headaches...

    Well i'm not sure where to go now, we've exhausted all troubleshooting steps I can determine. on the one machine I clicked 'no' on the trust prompt I did a clean uninstall and reinstalled it first time, clicking 'yes' on the prompt this time. so i have have 2 machines running the software. I...

    More Headaches...

    you OK, i just downloaded the software - the manual says "Win10 required" so that might have been your original problem. i would hardly call upgrading to a current OS money down the tubes but i get it, you're frustrated. I don't have any experience with the flight sim function (really never...

    More Headaches...

    it might just be easier to upgrade your box/laptop from Win7 to Win10 - assuming since you're on Ultimate you'll want the Pro edition and that'll cost you $199, otherwise home edition is $119 and i don't think you'll miss what's in Pro most likely. i don't want to be THAT GUY but you're running...

    My SC setup is finally complete

    the monitor is extremely bright, what you see in the pictures is out of the box settings and it's noticeably brighter than the SC itself, it also has a higher resolution. whilst the SC doesn't broadcast in true 4k you'll still get the advantage of upscaling. I've not field tested it yet, was...

    New firmware released for SmartController - v01.00.0530

    hey RW - a couple of questions if possible: -- what was the wifi network? home internet and provider or cell hotspot? -- if home is it an ISP provided router/modem? -- did you use 2.4ghz or 5.8ghz wifi? -- WPA2 protocol or WPA+WPA2 PSK protocol? (you'd need to be able to sign into your router...

    Using dji goggles with smart controller

    one of the issues i have with that Eureka! post is that they force Occusync to use 2.4ghz only and then use the 5.8ghz pagoda antenna, it's useless in that application and they don't identify that so i worry about the whole solution, did they happen on to something? possibly, but they don't...

    DJI smart controller; my opinion

    ok... so we're just going to have to disagree on some points, you really have a passion against this thing and it's strong enough no one is going to change your mind. on the cost front - Mojo already did the leg work and it was exactly what my point was, not sure how you can look at that and...

    Dji goggles gen 1 or 2??

    Can’t speak for the white goggles but i went the route of the RE’s with the M2P bundle and am quite happy with them, my wife wears the goggles, controls the camera whilst i fly, it does enhance the experience in my opinion.

    DJI smart controller; my opinion

    If you have the existing M2 bundle, yes, they might be cheaper but the SC bundled with an M2 is a pretty attractive price point. But with the above list you need a standard RC at the very least so add~$249 to each. This cant be an apples to oranges thing, you have to look at the cost in...
