How can I gracefully exit the free version of DJI Flight Simulator SOLVED in Post #11

[Topwind]

I am working with the free version frequently, using my MM controller, even though the program is not specifically set up for the Mini. Have you tried selecting a different drone after starting the simulator? Maybe you can find another "avatar" that works, even if it is slightly different than your MA2 controller.

Yes, I have tried various things. The controller doesn't seem to be recognised by the software at all, even after installing the additional drivers included with the installation software. I'll ping a DJI support a note to see if they have a way.

I had the same problem until it dawned on me that I didn't have the controller turned on. Dumb rookie mistake, I know, but sometimes it's just silly user error.

One other quick thought. Wait to connect and turn on your controller until after you have hit the <start> button on the simulator. If I turned on the controller first, the sim program would not recognize it.

Unfortunately not.

Mavic Mini i DJI Flight Simulator

Mavic Mini and DJI Flight Simulator

Not sure if everyone knows you can use the Mavic Mini remote controller with the DJI Flight Simulator The Mavic Mini's flight characteristics are not yet simulated, but you can fly the Spark, Mavic Pro, Mavic P2 etc. The Spark is the closest simulation to the Mavic Mini The Mavic Mini RC does...

DJI, if you're listening, we know you have your reasons for not making our controllers compatible with Flight Simulator (you're the creators of this fantastic tool, after all) but hear us out: if one of the reasons is because you haven't created flight models for these aircraft, that's ok! We'll be happy to practice maneuvers with ANY model......please. It's not too much to ask, is it?
