Thanks for the no-nonsense, clean presentation. There were no distractions, no sportscaster voice, annoying music. I traded in my Mavic Air and pretty much got my full expenditure back which made the Mavic @ Pro Combo with the Smart Controller the cost much more palatable. Great channel, I've subscribed, looking forward to more informative videos.
By far the best review/description of the DJI Smart Controller!
I was on the fence but now I know I do want to buy it!
Great job! Thanks!
Appreciate this walk-thru. I was looking for some details around the HDMI out and hadn't been able to test the output configuration options. This nailed it!
I'm looking to buy a Mavic 2 pro, and because I don't have a smartphone, I was looking for a Crystal Sky tablet. But I saw this controller and I started to hesitate in my choice. So I watched your video with a big interest and I think I'll watch your others videos. But finally, thank to your video, I more and more think this controller a better solution in my case, especially with the bundle.
Thank you for your video and for your demonstration.
another straight to the point video. Thank you it answered a lot of my questions.
Just received my Dji Smart controller today...Happy, Happy!
Fantastic Information, Thank you.
Happy Flying!
Another great video, very informative. You are so comfortable in front of the camera. I have tried several times, but just don't have it down yet. Practice, practice, practice!
Thanks Larry. Far from comfortable but you get used to it over time for sure.
Good job...as always!
Thanks for all the info man you're always helpful I watch all your videos
Thanks! 2S with Fly More and Smart Controller is arriving Tuesday. You made me glad I coughed up extra for the controller.
Great informational video for smart controller usersThanks
Very nice. There is probably going to be one of these in my bag by the spring. I’m hoping that some third-party or even DJI themselves come out with some sort of tripod mount that would utilize the bottom holes. If not then some very strong Velcro should do the job. The all in one convenience of this is worth it in my case. Only one battery to charge and not having to put a sun hood on each time should be much more convenient.
Nice way to put things into video for the Smart Controller, my only issue is with work I need a good screen to work on all drones.
thanks so much for your useful sharing, my bro. have a nice day and all the best for you :)
Excellent presentation!
Just ordered my Air2 w/ S/C. Not flying it until the holy stone pilot test unit phase completed.
Sooo excited.
thank you so so much for sharing the HDMI resolution settings!! I've been looking for this for 2 weeks and you're the only person who's thought to post it :D
Thanks again for another honest demoing on dji SC.Just like to be updated if was possible to run Litchi on that.
Nice
Thanks
Thank you
Hi is there any way I can connect a drone simulator to this controller? The built in simulator requires my mavic to be switched on and connected.
Thanks bro!
Can you view both satailite maps and road maps when out in the field flying?
I see one problem with using the controller on more then one drone, the reset button is very weak and can be pushed into the drone itself if pushed to hard. Rick Smith has a video out on that. So if you change a lot, you may be sending your drone in for repairs. Thanks again great video like always
Informative video. I have seen that the DJI Simulator for PC now accepts the Smart Controller as an available control option, but it's not clear whether it is possible to see anything on the Smart Controller screen when using the simulator i.e. would I be able to see a simulated camera view on the Smart Controller screen while I have the controller connected to my PC while I am flying on the simulator?
I like your delivery. Go to guy for my new hobby.
Typical DJI and corporations in general making a compatibility issues. Another deal breaker for me personally moving away from DJI. Great video thanks. Need to talk with you about a potential project I need to accomplish. Will get in contact
The HDMI clean out - any settings without the black bars right and left in the picture? I need a full frame 16:9 picture for broadcast live tv.
good info, i was looking how hdmi ouput work
If possible could you do a screen size comparison with the smart controller and an iPad mini 4? After that I think I can make a better judgement call. Thanks
Appreciate everything you have shown us, thank you!
Question on the controller. I’ve always used the DJI app to make edits. When switching to the controller do you still have the cache and editing of the feed on the phone?
I thought I lost my mavic 2 pro controller this week and went to look for a replacement on DJI. The controller is $400... at this point Id rather spend the extra 250 to get this controller if I am needing one. Will I buy it straight out? Negative. If mine breaks or gets lost... yuuup
Great video as always. Here is my question, as soon as I turn on smart controller, it displays many other models of Mavic. I am using Mavic Air 2 and already paired, is there any way I can delete or hide models I don’t have, it’s kind of unknowing to swipe left and right to choose your drone every time that’s already been paired.
thank for knowledge drone
Thanks for showing the HDMI output in action. That might be useful for clients to see the feed if you have a portable screen on a job. Have you compared this to the HDMI output on some P4P controllers? If I recall, you won't get 4K from that output.
Thanks again for demoing!
Stephen Holman I have a Panasonic video mixer. Do u think I can use this controller for an extra feed ?
Casting the display is a better solution
Hi! I have a hmx100 Panasonic video mixer. Do u think I can take the output from smart controller to the video mixer?
Thanks in advance
Do you have a video on how to properly sync an FAA Authorization to the smart controller? Seems to be something missing online. Any advice?
one thing i'm wondering is, can you use the controller but use the ipad as the interactive screen instead because i want to use the drone deploy app and its only compatible with ios so i cant use the controller and i dont have a standard controller.
if you get the smart controller kit does it come with the stock controller as well?
Friend, congratulations on the video !!! Can you tell me how to activate the dynamic home point in this smart controller? In my when I try to activate to "follow" the control, it gives error and I can not change the mode !! Thankful!!
Thanks For the info mybe i buy 🇩🇪👍🇩🇪
I do like the controller a lot. Can you do a video how to Yah or Orbit with the sticks manually? Thanks a lot. Do you need different settings with this controller? Thanks a lot 🙏.
I am considering purchasing the remote. Would I be able to use the DJI controller channel expansion kit on the remote?
Hello, I have a question : is it possible to plug an SD Card reader or a USB external disk on the controller ?
I does a lot of landscape photography and when I'm out of my home during several days, I love to make copy of my photos on a laptop. But if the coontroller allow me to do the same (by copying from SD card to the Micro-SD, and then to an external disk or USB Stick), it will really more convenient for me.
Newbie question, do you the 128 gig micro chip in the Mavic 2 drone or in the Smart Controller? All the pictures and data where on the Smart Control when I plug it in to the computer, and nothing was on the drone.
Hello, I have a mavic air 2 and the dji smart controller I have a problem, I cannot find the operation and the setting on the dji smart controller for the gimbal so I can actually climb up and down on the wheel left and I thought the right thumbwheel also worked to steer right to left and it doesn't work, maybe there is a trick, thanks.
I found that my HDD also connects to the USB on top, I can show stored pictures and video, with sound
I have probably a not that commen question. Can I use my smart controller as an external monitor for my photo camera. The camera (Nikon Z7) had an hdmi out, but the HDMI port on the smart controller seems only also hdmi out. Is there a way? Would be interested.
Hi I like your non bias comments ,could u please advise me with the smart controller with the SD card on top does it record everything you take or do u need to download from mavic ,and is there a setting to set it up.thanks Peter Australia
Wouldn't the P4 Pro V2 work with the SC? It runs on Occusync 2. Thanks
Hi bud,I have a DJI mavic pro,can this be used on the DJI smart controller?
I like mine a lot!
Hello I have a mavic pro and a mavic Platinum but I want to change my remote since I have a android phone which is the best to change to ?
Can not figure out where cache files are stored with the smart RC. When using iPhone or iPad, those files and our voice labels would record onto the iPad/iPhone. With the Smart RC, we can't find them anywhere. Help!
Hi, would you consider using a protective mat „film“ to protect the screen of the Smart remote, since there is no case for it yet ?!
Does it affect the clarity of the screen ? Thanks
My case protects the screen. Posting new video shortly.
Hi i see many review smart controller is lagging in air 2s is it true ? plase advise thanks
Good Morning Aldryn, Hope you can help. Reslly enjoy & learn from your videos. Thanks. I have been flying drones for few years. Bought Mavic 2 Pro when it came out. Setup with gesr & ipad took to long when in hurry to get a shot. I bought the M2Zoom with the Smart Controller.
Have used the Smart with both drones. But I shot this video & as it started out over the ice your see it stops. I had no control with the Smart Pad. I hit return to which it did. I fly this shot alot, never had this problem with std. controller. Switch back to old controller Pad & finish the video.?? Later back flying on Smart Pad I was getting Obstacle system turning off & on by itself. Also old pad had me do the compass circle dance before flying. The Smart Pad does not ask at all. The list pops up when starting shows all ok before flying. Can’t find were to set my compass dance. It walks you thur setting the compass by rocking back & forth the Smart Pad. Sorry so long. Last old pad you could slide the screen sideways to set home point - brightness. It’s missing on Smart Pad. All firmware is up to dste. Love the Smart Controller for the speed getting inth air BUT nervous smashing my drones
Thank you for all your help!!
Wizbang99. / Ken.
Here is that video. Also all the obstacle is turned off.

Again Thank You !!
Can you attach a 4G / LTE dongle / modem on the Smart Controller’s USB port? Does it work?
Will this remote work with my mavic 2?
Aldryn, is the WAYPOINT feature not available on the Smart Controller?
Was wondering if with the new smart controller quick charging feature is compatible with the new iPad Pro or MacBook Pro chargers? Realizing it’s an Android base operating system would be surprised if they all worked in unison but sure would be nice!
Having an issue scanning the QR code from my iPhone using the DJI goshare app. Tried to manually connect the two as well but no matter what I try my phone won’t connect so I can’t transfer photos from the SD card in the smart controller to my phone so the only way to view my photos and videos are on the controller screen. Any solutions would be great because I’m losing my mind.
Setting the "Return to Home" point with the DJI Smart controller is restricted to the launch point only. Which is a huge problem if you want to launch your drone from, say, a moving boat! I can't understand why DJI left this feature off. I often set my RTH point to the actual hand set because it allows me to move location and still bring my drone back to me.
The DJI Smart Controller screen has a pull-down settings page where you can see the WiFi connection, the SRE setting, the HDMI setting, etc. There is also a setting named "Bluetooth". Can you expand on this setting's purpose? What does it do? Should I set it on or off?
Will it work with the mavic pro platinum.
FWIIW two years on, I think the thread at the bottom of the controller is M6 X 1mm which is the standard 6mm thread pitch.
Will the smart controller work with gps without wifi? Does it link up with my phone and if so...how?
I will be flying in temps on 40C+ would this hold up?
hi can you help me i have the smart controler and canot get audio on my vidios i take his there any setting i have to do john
Dear FlyPath, the DroneDeploy app does not work with DJI Smart Controller. I use this app to work with my DJI Drone. Could you please help me? Thanks. RRos
Pls help: How do I fix joystick ops? Elevation changes when flying. Climbs/drops slightly.
Can I send video to my multi camera live streaming platform from the hdmi?
The default setting is mode 2 but mine has come mode 1 do you know how to change it please?
Have you found a lanyard that will work with the smart controller? Also what and where did get the wrist strap?
Getting my SC on Thursday :-)
Thanks
New vid about it going up now
Can I broadcast live from my DJI smart controller.? If so can you tell me how. Thanks
Hello ! Bruce from NJ here. I am considering buying the Mavic Pro 2 and debating 2 things. 1) Should I pay the extra $ and get the Smart Controller or just use my never verision of the iphone 6 or my ipad? 2) Do you think this would be suitable for a beginner - I am thinking with the obstacle avoidance and the ability to be looking through the eye of the camera, it might be crash-proof?? I had my first drone 2 years ago and it would up in a tree... it was considered a "toy" so I don't take all the blame, and it had to "eye in the sky". I would appreciate and respect your opinion... Thank you
Hi all I pay $749 for this but got lost Connection should I Modify my Smart remote controls? About 3000 feet away
Does DJI smart controller work with the First Mavic air?
can you do a vid for downloading 3rd part apps ie google etc cheers.
Great video thanks. Please can you tell me if 1920 x 1080 50i is an HDMI output option?
Tom Sykes depends on your output device. If it allows it, it will show up as an option in the drop down
@@FlytPath great thanks.
I own the Spark and Mavic 2 Pro. If you could only have one, would it be Goggles RE or the Smart controller?
btsc1 smart controller for sure
Does the smart controller track my flight time?
What’s the Benefit of having cell service while using your drone as opposed to using the DJI controller
Does the hdmi out outputs 1080 or above
Can a DJI Smart Controller mirror to an iPad via HDMI and idevice adapter? How about mirroring to an iPad via bluetooth? Thank you.
I just bought the smart controller with the DJI Air 2S. I will be leasing my drone to consumers and enterprises. I wish that I could buy the original controller to have on hand as well.
I am planning to buy a mavic with smart controller, my questiona is: 1 - can i add a off-line map on The controller Like "here" map? Does The controller have GPS? 2 - Supose i loose The drone on a flyhgt, i know that There is a way to find The Last locaition of it, would i be able to do it using The smart controller? 3 - a screen recorder works on The controller? Thanks.
Can the smart controller be applied for V2 goggle?
how do you know how far you can fly with the smart controller before it loses connection? is there a warning somewhere or you just fly til it says lost connection return home?
Rated for a few miles but that’s in ideal conditions. Everything from location, buildings, line of sight will effect distance.
@@FlytPath ok i just didnt know if there was simple signal meter on the controller that gave warnings or how high or low signal got so the operator would be warned before he loses control, i guess they dont have this feature, you just fly til you lose it and hit return to home.
How do I setup my DJI smart remote for the DJI Flight Simulator?
Question : how to control the gimbal movements on the smart controller ? Like to recenter the gimbal , pan left to right or right to left and up an down the final on the smart controller ? On the left toggle is only going up and down for me .
Same way as on the DJI GO 4 app....identical.
I wish they had this for the Spark. Why would they make a controller that only works with the mavic?
I wish also. Find it a pain trying to setup another way.
Can you take still photos while recording video ?
Hi I have just purchased a Mavic pro platinum and wondering if the smart controller is compatible ??
Chris Payne no
I finally purchased the Smart Controller! I can't access the Google Play store or install Litchi. I'll keep searching for details. The OS is android like but 100% android compatible.
U figured it out
No play store, using a dedicated phone like a S9+ is better
Hi!
I know you're a busy guy but thought you might be able to help me solve this one or at least bring awareness to this problem I'm having with the new DJI Smart Controller.
I’ve got a brand new Mavic 2 Zoom/Smart controller combo up in Toronto, Canada. I’m unable to "activate" the mavic 2 on the final setup screen on the smart controller through the DJI GO 4 APP due to it saying unable to connect to the internet and yet I was able to download the firmware and even browse the internet with the built in browser app...
I’m working with DJI but have yet to find a solution...
They’ve now recommended I use the DJI GO 4 App on my phone separately to activate but I have no idea how to do this as its not like the original Mavic Pro where plugging your phone into the controller is required. Is there a way to connect an iPhone to the Mavic 2 directly or via the smart controller? I wasn’t able to figure it out...
I’ve also tried the Assistant app to re-download the firmware, reset both devices settings to factory. I've tried different wifi networks and and even tried re-binding the aircraft to the controller...
Hope nobody else is having to deal with this... I can’t find any information on this issue anywhere!
*****SOLVED*****
All steps below were completed on the DJI Smart Controller. No separate device/phone required.
1. DJI GO 4 APP - Go through the activation process until it tells you “Check your internet connection”
2. SETTINGS - Toggle the WiFi off
3. DJI GO 4 APP - Select back ON THE SCREEN to the first page of activation - Then press next without changing anything right through to the final page press ACTIVATE
4. SETTINGS - Toggle WiFi back ON
5. DJI GO 4 APP - Repeat Step 3
*****SOLVED*****
Can you change the screen saver, background photo?
Do i need to hve a internet provider to conect to the drone like my phone hve a internet provider?
No you do not need internet when flying. Only to do the initial setup
Does it connect to GPS without a cell phone?
I have one and yes! It will connect to gps without your phone!
