Multiple drones with one controller?

[blaircm]

Traveling abroad first time with Mini 2 and am thinking of a plan B should I lose/crash my drone. Do you know if I could pair a 2nd Mini 2 drone with the controller from another one? Would be great to take 2 drones but just one controller, battery charger, etc. just as a fallback plan. If something happens to the first, I'd use the second without having to bring the entire kit. Thank you so much and wish me luck (Scotland and Ireland)!

There was a video on that from 2020

I swap controllers all the time, the only problem oyou might run into is if you have the fly away insurance but you#ll need to read up on that for yourself.

True there is that. Requires binding the remote specifically to the drone. But I think you can undo and then redo it, but it's a longer process.

"Binning" would be expensive, binding or rebinding would be better . Yep it can be done and it needs to be done otherwise I think the insurance is invalidated but check that.

You still get the care refresh or such, but can only claim the fly away part if the RC was bound.
