Looking for DJI controller for original Mavic Pro

ericole · Thursday at 4:58 PM

Not sure if I post "looking for" here or not. Let me know if not and I can move. I'm tired of hooking my phone up to the phone based controller and would love to just pull out the single item to control my ORIGINAL Mavic Pro. Does anyone have one for sale, or know a good place to look for one? thanks

A "smart controller" for the gen #1 Mavic Pro? No such animal. That type of integrated controller only started with the Mavic 2 series (RM500) which is not compatible with the original Mavic Pro.

I don't know if it is smart or not, just wanted a controller with the integrated screen so I don't have to use my phone. If that doesn't exist, blah!

Dji goggles? You can fly a MP1 with goggles only

Yes, I have the white goggles and they connect wirelessly. A bit of a learning curve to control without the controller.

How do I control it with goggles, or does the small RC hook to them vs my phone? That would still be another piece of gear to carry...and I've always wondered, how do people meet the VLOS rule with goggles? I have worn a secondary pair of goggles when someone was racing - crazy and cool!
