    Smart Controller will NOT link to Pro 2 after firmware update HELP!!

    Well, I did the downgrade to .530 after re-flashing the SC...nothing. Drone will not link. Sending it back and getting a new one. :(

    Smart Controller will NOT link to Pro 2 after firmware update HELP!!

    After factory reset, do I need to do anything to help it BEFORE I try to link? I'm logged into GO4 and it sees me but the drone isn't showing up under equipment.

    Smart Controller will NOT link to Pro 2 after firmware update HELP!!

    Will try now. When I just looked at "switch aircraft"...it doesn't see ANY aircraft (which is obviously the problem). I'll give it one more try. Thank you!

    Smart Controller will NOT link to Pro 2 after firmware update HELP!!

    I hear you on the SC upgrade. Total nightmare. Ok...so when I just went back to my SC to check on adding a new device...I don't have ANY device on there. It doesn't see my drone. Under Aircraft Management, it just has a "plus" sign and says "add device". When I try to add the Mavic 2 Pro it...

    Smart Controller will NOT link to Pro 2 after firmware update HELP!!

    Thank you for the suggestions! I got on the phone with DJI today and they think the drone is bad. We tried a lot of different things with them on the phone and none worked. Luckily, I was just inside of my one-year so I'm shipping it in to be replaced. Appreciate the help.

    Smart Controller will NOT link to Pro 2 after firmware update HELP!!

    Okay, can you walk me through the exact process you're doing with the battery? I'm turning on the drone, then the SC...pulling the battery, then putting it back in and once the drone boots up, I try to link and all I get is my SM beeping and the red light staying red on the drone.

    Smart Controller will NOT link to Pro 2 after firmware update HELP!!

    Okay...tried the battery pull idea. I turned on Mavic Pro 2, pulled the batter then put it back in...still did not link after redoing relinking from Smart Controller. No SD cards in either device by the way. SC and AC are both running most current firmware for each. .650 for Smart Controller and...

    Smart Controller will NOT link to Pro 2 after firmware update HELP!!

    Thanks...will try the battery pull / power-on tip next. This all started when I updated my Smart Controller to .650 firmware. Ugh. I've already reverted firmware on SC and AC and still can't link. Upgraded firmware on AC now to most current (for all batteries) then will try the new relink...

    Smart Controller will NOT link to Pro 2 after firmware update HELP!!

    Yes...I've tried the three different ways to link drone and controller as per the DJI handbook. No luck.

    Smart Controller will NOT link to Pro 2 after firmware update HELP!!

    I bought this drone with the Smart Controller from DJI. I never got another controller. They shipped the SC and Mavic 2 Pro. I've seen some info that says I can run the most recent updates to both controller and drone when using the Smart Controller. Seems weird.

    Smart Controller will NOT link to Pro 2 after firmware update HELP!!

    At the end of my rope here and need help. I just updated to the most current firmware for both Mavic Pro 2 the Smart Controller. No matter which linking method I use, the RC will NOT see the aircraft. What am I missing? Thanks.

    Cannot link Mavic 2 Pro to Smart Controller after firmware update

    Well, I just reverted the "Smart" controller to one firmware version before the most recent. I left the drone alone and it linked up like it's supposed to. I'll do a flight test in the morning. Thanks again for taking a look at this!

    Cannot link Mavic 2 Pro to Smart Controller after firmware update

    Thank you Shivers. Yes, I've got the relink button down. I've been flying drones for a long time but have never had this level of frustration. Going to call DJI in the morning but I'm most certain they are going to tell me to revert to original firmware on both bird and box and try it again...

    Cannot link Mavic 2 Pro to Smart Controller after firmware update

    How do you 'reset the controller'? Will that maintain the latest firmware? Thank you!

    Cannot link Mavic 2 Pro to Smart Controller after firmware update

    Firmware update are both current on both aircraft and Smart Controller. I just did that successfully yesterday. Now, no matter which method I try, the Mavic 2 will not link to the Smart Controller. I've read that sometimes you may need to 're-activate' the drone as you do when you first purchase...
