Smart Controller Camera Lighting Button

[Inspired_Mike]

Recently bought a Mavic Air 2 with a Smart Contoller. I have customized the C1 & C2 buttons. My problem is with the the left and right dial buttons. The one on the left adjusts the gimbal angle. The one on the RIGHT does NOTHING. Seemed like on my older mavic controllers this was a camera lighting dial. Does the Mavic Air 2 have a dial to adjust lighting? Right now I am just tapping on the lower right to change settings manually. TIA Mike

I believe it controls the aperture in A mode. Probably the shutter in S mode.

That's the way the stock MA2 controller works, too. It has no right scroll button, so the SC apparently can't use its right dial button because the MA2 Fly app never expected you to have one!

I don't have a Smart Controller, but the other wheel may control the zoom function of the camera in video mode.

With the regular controller you have to hold down the Fn button while scrolling the wheel to zoom.

I think the Smart Controller dedicated a wheel for this feature?

The SC was originally designed around the Mavic 2 which has two scroll wheels, the right one of which acts as the zoom wheel on the M2Z and the exposure compensation wheel on the M2P. However, the MA2 controller only has a single scroll wheel, which can be modified by the Fn key, so not surprising that the extra scroll wheel on the SC isn't yet supported by the MA2.

Wrong, the right wheel controls zoom in the MA2 as well

Maybe you can explain that to the OP, who claims otherwise!
"The one on the RIGHT does NOTHING."
See post #1 to which I was replying.

I’m just correcting your statement. I own an MA2 with an SC & the right wheel controls the zoom

Makes all the sense in the world, thank you. Guess I am not as dumb as I look

Dont have it with me right now, would that be zoom on picture or video. I seemingly got nothing from the dial.

I use the Smart controller but it is the video only not the pictures.

Its for zooming in or out. However, it doesn't work with 4k at 60 fps.
