It's random , and will go off to red sometimes when I try everything , by that time my animals I'm looking at have disappeared. getting frustrating . Turn controller on and some times it's red but when I really need it it will flash blue and won't fly . Red means it's good to connect . Tried downloading refresh programs . spent hrs on it and now a week . mucking around . Anybody heard of this ? I am in the desert and no Wi Fi , is that the problem ?

Lack of internet would not be the issue.
The red and blue color you mention is on the entire screen?
 
Normally Blue means you need to sync controller to aircraft. I have a SC as well but it came already paired to my aircraft. I would look up the pair procedure..it's in the owners manual. :) here is a video on it though, worth a shot.

 
Thanks repaid 1 but that's not the problem , tried all of that . Has nothing to do with the UAV, it's the controller , it should have a red light on start up not a blue flashing light . Without having the UAV on. It is random . and sometimes it will start up and not others.

I did a search on issue and found a thread on DJI forums with a blue light problem, You probably have already done the same search? Anyway as weird as it sounds, he fixed the issue by doing a controller calibration (Gimbals and knobs). Reported issue cleared. Sounds out in left park, but hey, we have all seen stranger things :cool: Not saying that is the issue, but hey "let's" try it and see? Might be related somewhat either fixable with cal, or direct DJI for a repair as something hardware wise.
