Great vid! My question relates to the controls that are available for the air s3. Would you think that they both work the same regarding signal strength and distance? I have a TRIPLTEK t82 that I love to use with my other drones. Very bright and big screen, only neg is weight, which doesn't bother me a bit. So I would like to go with the cheaper controller as long as it has the same performance as the one with the screen.

I would like to move to the Air3. Fo you know whether the range and (video) transmission will be the same with controller with or without screen? As both have I think the same amount of antennas? Because my iPhone had mir Nits that the screen controller.

Billy, thanks for your videos and service on behalf of droners. Question: I am a solidly Apple person, and have successfully totally avoided Android. But, the built-in screen has strong merits. How annoying would it be to go with the RC-2? Asked another way, is the built-in screen worth, what for me would be, the pain of taking on and learning and using a different operating system, setting up a new app store account, re-purchasing drone apps I already have for my Apple platforms, etc.?

Minor point as I haven't used it properly yet...but the RC2 (screen), the control sticks are a lot more of a faff to put in as instead of screwing IN directly, you have to screw on to a little screw ON the controller...

@danewesterdahl3451 11 ай бұрын

Thanks for the video. Many people are going to be confused or at least concerned with the choices. But one thing for sure, DJI is excellent at marketing. It seems very likely (sure?) that a RC pro replacement will come along. This may well look a lot like the current model. Inside it is bound to have a much upgraded cpu since the current one is quite old as computer tech goes and modifications to allow occusync 4 to work--maybe it will be backwards compatible with OC 3. It seems that this could be part of some new drone model to give it some legs--its not a compelling product if limited to the Air 3 since this is a fairly small market. Let's wait and see.

Hi from Belgium. Thanks for your video. I have (an Inspire 1, a DJI FPV and Avata) + a Mini 3 Pro (O3), a Mavic 3 Cine (O3+), a Mavic 3T (O3 Enterprise) and not the Inspire 3 which is O3 Pro... I think my setup is quite enough (for several years) and don't plan to add Air 3 and new O4 transmission. What are the real differences between those O3 protocols? Please note that Mini 3 (standard version, not the Pro version) is O2, but compatible with DJI RC-N1 and DJI RC, ... but not with DJI RC Pro. Same thing regarding the DJI FPV, has been only compatible with DJI Goggles V2 for at least 2 years, but is now compatible with Goggles 2 and Integra with the last upgrade. And DJI Avata was compatible with all goggles (V2, 2, Integra) since the beginning of sales. Last thing, Mini 3 Pro and Mavic 3 can be used with Goggles 2 and Integra, but still no words about the new Air 3. Sometimes DJI is uncoherant on what they propose, or this is also just commercial and marketing interests.

The only reason why dji would upgrade transmission is probably to guarantee you will not lose signal strength over distance and to also maximize object penetration efficiency. This applies to all the madmans who fly 15km just for the sake of it and then post a dumb complaint. I hope a future o4+ transmission will have 2.7k video. Also @Billy Kyle o4's frequencies include 5.1ghz, so it's 2.4, 5.1 and 5.8ghz frequencies.

It does say: "5.170-5.250 GHz can be used only in countries and regions where it is allowed by local laws and regulations." Is it something we are able to take advantage of in the US?

Great video explaining the DJI remote ecosystem. From an engineering perspective, I think there is a high probability that DJI will release a firmware update for the RC Pro to enable Occusync 4 compatibility. The DJI RC Pro has a powerful 64-bit CPU and GPU, along with the same 2T4R antenna system as the new DJI RC2 remote. I do not think there will be the same technical incompatibility problem that occurred with the DJI Crystal Sky monitor and the original Mavic Pro/Platinum and the Mavic 2 Pro and Zoom with the original DJI Smart Controller. The technical incompatibility was caused by the Crystal Sky chip architecture being 32-bit while the Smart Controller was 64-bit which is what Occusync 2.0 required. With all that being said, I think DJI will also release an RC Pro 2 transmitter in the near future to provide a premium transmitter option.

I once had to have the latest and greatest sport camera, phone, and drone, however, I now have all I could ever need with the Mavic 3, Mini 3 Pro, RC Pro, Go Pro 9, Insta360 X3, and Note 20 Ultra.

I am looking at getting the Controller RC 2 here soon for my DJI Mavic 3 Classic. I will use the RC 1 that came with my classic and I was planning to use it with my Air 2s which I bought last year. Sadly, I highly doubt that DJI will somehow magically make the DJI RC Pro 1 compatible with OcuSync 4 or a few more years down the road to OcuSync 5. We're going to have to buy new controllers every time DJI decides to upgrade the OcuSync versions. DJI should offer a slot on their controllers where we can purchase the upgraded OcuSync for a reasonable price and do a quick swap out and upgrade our controllers we paid a lot of money for. I doubt that will happen anytime soon.

@jockslifeatliftvideoproduc8528 11 ай бұрын

I suspect OcuSync 4 is backwards compatible with OcuSync 3 and if not then honestly DJI really screwed their customers. They only released the new RCN1 a year and a bit ago and I know many budget pilots opted to invest into the controller, believing they would be able to use it for a few more iterations, they only released the new DJI Mavic 3 pro drones like 2 months ago, they knew they had OcuSync 4 in the works. Many pro drone pilots would likely have wanted to invest in a Mavic 3 pro and an Air 3 as a back up and DJI knows this. They should have worked in some backwards compatibility. This staggered update release where none of the products truely reach a good level of equilibrium is most defiantly a business strategy with each new release slightly upgrading over the others it pulls people into questioning if they should buy the current drone thats in their budegt, stretch it a little for the model up or wait till the next release that'll have a new controller or new battery design forcing you to buy the fly more combo again. Constantly finding ways to up sell you.

Thank you....that explained the differences between controllers very well. As usual, an excellent video BTW, I and millions of others pay for KZfaq Premium to avoid all the idiotic ads, so it comes as quite a disappointment to see people starting to add ads directly into their content. Easy to jump ahead to avoid this nonsense as I always do but it seems advertisers are using content providers to ensure their ads are seen. From your point of view, I completely understand but still, I personally don't like it If this continues to happen, I for one will remove my subscription to those particular channels. For you I guess, it's a tradeoff.....

Okay, you can stop watching then. It’s how I support my channel, and I give you timestamps to easily skip through the ads.

On the other side of things that are not talked about. The range increases are also for remote ID for increased detection by authorities.

Like dji did with Smart Controller, they made it backward compatible to P4V2. I cant see why a 4 antenna Drone wont comm with a 6 antenna RC or visa versa. The only downside is a shorter range. The ranges for OC 3 are 12km so range really shouldn't be an issue. What i believe has happened is dji wanted to get Air3 and RC2 out the door and make sales. If they tried making other RCs and drones all talk that would take more R&D and time and would simply have delayed the release of Air3. Now that Air3 is out, im confident in a month or so we will see new firmware to address all this. This shit is not rocket science any more to them

DJI... send these guys that review your drones all sale options!!! I can't find a review that has the rc-n2 controller vs the RC 2?

I wanted to order an Air3 (I owned an Air2s until now) but when I found out that the Air3 is not compatible with the RC Pro I use with the Air2s I ordered the Mavic 3 Classic and I'm happy 😂😂

@ronarmour8909 11 ай бұрын

The Mavic 3 Classic is the sweet spot in the lineup..great pic quality and 3X zoom.

I hope they make the RC Pro compatible in the next three months.

They won't. They'll just release an RC Pro+S for another $1,500.

I just wish the Rc pro had a better antenna system. Sometimes I'd rather use my controller with my phone.

@ronarmour8909 11 ай бұрын

Its easy to go 5+ miles with the RC Pro, what more do you want?

We finally arrived to the diminishing returns in drones, don't expect anything better than the M3 4/3 anytime soon. DSLRs on the last 10+ years have improved a ton on autofocus, but my R6 image quality is not way beyond my 6D quality, same for the R6 MkII vs any of them.

So this is like the fifth video that I watched until the fifth video that doesn't mention how you have to pay for the go fly out now it's a service monthly weekly or one-time payment of $65 but no mention of that in the five videos that I've watched just none no mention at all that's pretty cool.

Just to add.... unfortunately, the DJI RC Pro ENTERPRISE is not compatible with any of the consumer drones.

@trimotionmedia5487 11 ай бұрын

I don’t really care about distance. I have m3pro with RC Pro. Fly it nearly every single day for work. I lose connection when I am flying on real estate shoots of acreage homes and stuff when there are hills. If the drone goes a little bit behind a hill or something I’ll lose connection and only be say 500-2000ft away.

Giving incremental upgrades drip by drip, milking the consumers with bucket loads of cash... They could have implemented 4 Watts transmit power many years ago which has been FCC limit for decades, but no, while they make some improvements on algorithms, they have not maxed out the 4 watt transmit power. Instead Mavic is increasing transmit power slightly with each generation while combining with newer algorithms and antenna array in order to make it more compelling to upgrade.

I was so excited for the Air 3, until the controller 😒. I have the Pro for my 2s, love it but it is freakin expensive. Come on DJI, obviously they have the technoIogy. I understand the other remotes, but you can't tell me they can't make the Pro compatible. What really gets me is the Pro is $1200, the difference in price (at B&H) of the Air 3 with and without the RC 2 is $200, so the Pro is 6 times !!! the price of the RC 2, but not compatible with drone, really!!

Ive had my rc pro for 18 months. It’s literally been terrible. No end of issues, never the same and virtually impossible to get video off it. I had a replacement 6 months ago and it’s as bad!

@kosmonparran4495 11 ай бұрын

these new remotes are running the same frequencies, so I have to think they just want to force the consumers to purchase the new ones at least during launch until they decide to update the firmware and make them compatible. normal big corp money grab.
