I have a mavic 3 with an rc remote control ( not the rc pro..!!) I dont know how much the battery of this controller last, but I think on mine is starting to get weak. Last time I used 3 batteries (fully charged) on my drone , and the controller from fully charged it stayed with one green light on (I think is approx 25% battery left) is this normal to last only for about 3 batteries? I dont know also if dji can change its internal battery?

You can change the Battery....When it time....... Yours sounds like it could be getting there. PARTS for DJI are becoming collectors items in the U.S. and my advice to you is to go ahead and get the battery now! swapping the battery is simple!

The battery is replaceable. You would need to split the case open to get that done.
Does not need to be done by DJI.

Mine doesn’t need replacement, not yet anyway, but where can I get one ?? Just to be ready.
Thanks.

In my own experience, what you describe (3 flight batteries equals 75% controller charge) is perfectly normal. I've noticed that each flight will eat about 30% from my RC-1A/B controllers and the RC-N1 loses between 25-30% per IFB.

With the original DJI RC: (and the later models of 'smart' controllers) you also have to take into account that the controller batteries are having to feed the built-in android tablet at the same time.
 
flight time for RC controller is around 4 hours, I am not using my battries until they are flat, i would say an estimate flight time of 3 batteries to be 1 hour and 30 minutes flight time, i don't know if its normal or my controller's battery started dying ?
