RC2 - HDMI Output for Large TV\Monitor

[RareAir]

USB-C to Display Port does work?

Never mind. I’m an idiot. You have to have the glasses plugged in when you power on the RC2. Just plugging them in does nothing.
It’s awesome by the way. Massive 300” screen in front of my face.

I was wondering if USB-C to Display Port would work with the RC2, sorry to hear it doesn't.

I got it working! See above.

I'll guess that means USB-C to Display Port works as a general rule then. It always did for PC, just wasn't certain about the RC2.

Confirm, works on a 75” lol

Is the live video on the screen 1080P or 4K? I imagine it’s 1080P since that’s what the RC 2 is transmitting in.

RC2 outputs 4K live video. Here's a 21:9 monitor at 3840 x1600 60Hz:

Wow that’s outstanding! Will try it tomorrow. Thanks.

Here's my set up. It's the $28 Anker 518 USB-C to 8k HDMI into my Atomos field monitor. My goal is to have a portable monitor for an art director to be able to see what I'm capturing without having to look over my shoulder. Better than this would to be able to go into an iPad. I realize there is another tablet brand this will work with but would need it to work with iOS. If anyone knows how to work this with an iPad, please LMK.

Here is how it obviously works on iPad PRO

Got mine working, thank you. Now for my question: How can we do this with the Mini 4 Pro? That would be great. Firmware?

Are you using an iPad, or a monitor?

The video above your post is showing how his Mini 4 Pro is currently working with the RC2/iPad.

Will give that a try today. Thank you. The monitor makes viewing allot better.

I am having trouble getting the RC2 to work with monitor using the M4P. Works excellent with A3.

You have (2) RC2 controllers, one for each, or are you using the same RC2 controller for both?

I used the same RC 2.

@MoKa-HH, did you have to do anything special to make your RC2 and Mini 4 Pro work correctly with HDMI out?

 

[GerdS]

HDMI out on RC2 with matching USB-to-HDMI converter/cable is plug and play.
Just NEVER unplug USB while the RC2 is running or even worse, while the drone is airborne as this will crash the firmware.

 

[RareAir]

I left a warning about unplugging the HDMI-out in flight, on the second page, the RC2 will not crash, it reboots the DJI Fly App, or goes white screen for about 30 seconds. If the Air 3 is flying when the cable is unplugged, the Air 3 goes in to RTH mode.

 

[GerdS]

And you don't call this behaviour a software crash? For me it's a crash. And yes, also the Mini 4 Pro is executing a RTH in this case.

No, a crash is random or intermittent. If you unplug the HDMI-out adapter from the RC2, every time, it will reboot the DJI Fly App.

And why does the r/c connection get lost if only the Fly app will be restarted, triggering the signal lost function (usually RTH)? A N2 remote does not loose connection if the mobile phone gets disconnected or the Fly app gets closed. In my opinion the whole RC2 is crashing and restarting by a watchdog function.
