Another big one. Nice. Really pleased about the RC Pro Stuff 👌 Let's put it through the paces. I flew and checked for an update literally a few hours before this appeared to drop! No Air 2 yet 😪 but much to be happy about. Quick Transfer! I can stop manually moving files off RC Pro to SD card.

First Install took less than 3 minutes for the drone .
Second install on the DJI fly app took 30 Seconds.

Were off to a great start.

Took a bit longer with RC Pro. I thought it stalled at 94% - sat for a few mins, then went to 95% & controller rebooted. Yes! Have to figure out a few things;

How does quick transfer get initiated? It's not transferring files any faster doing downloads as always. Theres no extra button on the drone like Mini 2 to transfer directly using wifi. hmmm.

Don't see any way to set cache to sdcard on rc pro or download to sdcard.

The newly posted release notes don't offer help outside a few notes. The User Manual is still v1.2 May be updated later.

Lots to check out - only ingredient missing right now is daylight. ****. I'm pretty excited to see how Santa's late delivery works out. I'm sure it will be 95% joy and 5% new bugs 🐛 😀 I hope the ratio is even better, but I'll take it either way.

Oh, lets hope satellite acquisition speeds are improved. Or at least not worse!

I have had zero disconnects over 300 flights, but some have a hard time with them. Hopefully this FW/Fly app combo helps them out, else they need to get warranty service.

My RC Pro says there’s no new remote firmware update. Is it supposed to update to v04.13.0500? The Mavic3 updated successfully… Thanks
 
RC Pro has just updated to V03.01.0500
 
Interesting...didn't get "Outdoor Mode" for the RC Pro controller?

What order did you follow? I grabbed Fly 1.5.8, then just ran the FW package. You need to wait a few mins after it finishes without doing anything, then you should see a controller updated message. If not, you may have to use DJI Assistant to update RC Pro.
 
Outdoor mode? Not familiar with that. Do you only fly indoors? 😆
It's mentioned on the product page, regarding auto brightness settings.

RC Pro

"DJI RC Pro includes an integrated 5.5-inch 1080p screen that reaches an average brightness of 1000 nits. This long-lasting high-bright display is perfect for its Outdoor mode, [2] where shadow details are enhanced automatically for clear display, even under direct sunlight."

If you read point [2] it refers to the Jan 22 update.

Just a point of interest.

The mode your referencing is in the controller settings (Android) not in DJI FLY. It's under "colors" - can be "adaptive, "natural"or "boosted" - I believe Adaptive is your Outdoor mode. Sorry for bad pics. No time to screenshot and transfer. 20220124_060950.jpg20220124_060931.jpg
 
Yea!! Hoping to hear much more positive reviews and posts on the M3 now.

Upgraded DJI RC Pro firmware and Mavic 3.
I was able to bind my Mavic Air 2S to the RC Pro and Mavic 3 at the same time. I had to erase files from the RC Pro since the internal storage was nearly full and the firmware was unable to install because of this.

So far,
The zoom sharpness has been improved nicely. Still, there is a jump from 4X-7X that is bad.
I haven't chance to fly yet.

What is USB mode? A quick net search turned up nothing. The manual does not use the phrase USB mode.
 
So far so good. Now I only wait for DJI to announce a new Flymore version with RC Pro. I was hoping to see this before Chinese New Year.
Yes... I really wonder how they are going to solve the RC Pro problem between the Air2s flymore with RC Pro and the up and coming M3 flymore with RC Pro. What kind of "rabbit" are they going to pull out their "hats" to solve the massive price discrepancies let alone justify $1200 for the RC Pro alone.
