Mavic 3 and DJI RC 2

Do you guys think they will make a firmware to have the DJI RC 2 work with the Mavic 3 drones?

Hard to tell; we just don't know the DJI secret sauce. Going to be pretty tough for DJI to keep making RC and RC2 at the same time; seems like such a waste.

If it's not possible, I would do something that DJI probably hasn't done before which is migrate to RC2a and stop selling (not shipping) RC2.

This might become possible. It's like when the Air2S came out and then the Mavic 3, the Mavic 3 RC Pro was made backwards compatible to work with Air2S but then again this is only speculation.

I've repeatedly raised the issue with Shenzen and California DJI to upgrade FW so that font size for various on screen tools and messages could be variable...as most other laptops, tablets, computers permit in the known world. The font size is simply untenable in some situations and a safety hazard.

Negative, at least that's been shared. And if DJIs track record is an evidence, it's unlikely it will be. If I were a betting man, I'd say we'll get an RC Pro 2 when the Mavic 4 gets released in the future. Then rinse and repeat... planned obsolescence.
