DJI Smart Controller Pricing & Specs:
amzn.to/3hXIr3g
DJI Mavic Air 2: w/Smart Controller:
amzn.to/3yJqZoW
The DJI Smart Controller has arrived and it is impressive! It is specifically designed to work with OcuSync 2.0 and has a 5.5 inch 1080p display that works in bright sunlight and extreme conditions. We tested it in cold weather and bright sunlight. We also compared it to the original Mavic 2, Mavic Pro (using iPhone 10) and Phantom 4 Pro+ remote controls to see how it stacks up! While it is not essential to have a Smart Controller to fly your Mavic 2 series drones, it really is a big step up for professional pilots, videographers and photographers.
Because it is compatible with OcuSync 2.0, the DJI Smart Controller is also designed to support more DJI aircraft models in the future. I know it’s a luxury, but now that I’ve flown with the DJI Smart Controller, I’m not sure I can ever go back to my original Mavic 2 controller with my phone.

This thing saves me a lot of time on setup. It’s expensive but so is my time. (Most recent software) I use the smart controller for 4 different drones, makes things a lot simpler. 4 drones: M2P, M2Z, Enterprise, Dual (commercial use). After initially linking all my aircraft , they’re listed in Aircraft Management menu. Just open the menu and select the drone. After that one lands I can then select another drone and I’m good to go. This setup is great for commercial jobs that require multiple drones.

The sticks on the back of the drone are the ones your meant to use... The slots to put them in is there so if you need to pack it into a bag you can put the sticks away so they won't get snapped, also you need a SanDisk extreme pro card, cool that the controller tells you it's to slow though!

nice vid - by the way the sticks on the back are what you meant to use when on the go (as like done the standard mavic controller with the sticks located in the base of the controller for storage) - the sticks in the bag/box you receive are the spare ones.

Can't tell you the number of times I cursed the blinding sunlight which ended my flight as I could not see my screen. Also, not having to connect wires, use my phone/iPad or a sun hood is priceless!

A very nice review of the new DJI Smart Controller, Kelly. It looks like the new controller come's with all the input and accessories that are on the original CrystalSky Monitor. Yup, it seems like you need to update you micro SD Card to a 100mb speed card. Your first test of the unit looks very smooth and clean, and you need a microfiber cloth to keep the screen clean from fingerprinters, LOL! Thanks to you and Phillip for the onsite testing, take care!

Though it's a bit costly I think this unit is a wonderful addition to your equipment pack. Fantastic review Kelly, one thing I didn't see you mention is the "touch screen gimbal control" where you can tap + hold on the screen and move the camera. Did you happen to notice if it has that feature? Though I'm willing to bet it does because it's part of the app. It would be nice to know for sure.

Looks like DJI has caught up with the transmitter for the two-year-old Hubsan H501s. But the Hubsan transmitter included a GPS drone with brushless motors and camera for a small fraction of the price of this new DJI wonder. And, the Hubsan controller included a sun shade. So, the question is whether the DJI is worth nearly ten times more.

You missed the part of the page where you connect to the internet and you need a password. It is the password that is for internet address or name. A lot of people are confused about the password. my comment is to help others who are confused about this part.

You obviously end a hc (high capacity) SD card, doesn’t mean that it holds more, it means that it can accept fast loading of video or other information, even in only 1080p at 60 frames per second that’s a lot of capacity, and your old card probably doesn’t have that speed necessary for good capture. That device looks pretty cool and if I had a newer dji drone other than the spark I would probably want one, unless they make it retroactive and able to support my spark.

those weights aren't accurate your scale was jumping around because anything that gives off any type of radio wave will interfere with your scale even if your cell phone is on and around a digital scale it will throw it off best bet is to make sure all of the controllers and the drone are powered off when you wiegh them just a tip hope it helps.

Good video, i have just ordered one only because of the GPS issues with my apple devices and GO4, i have only once got the gps to work, it always says Mobile Device GPS Signal Weak. It's location cannot be acquired. Yeah its a bit pricey, if its not what i expect il send it back

Awesome review! I've narrowed it down to the Autel Evo or the M2Z with Smart Controller. Subbed!

If the app locks up or crashes, can you reboot the screen without shutting off the remote? The Phantom 4 Pro + has this problem. If your Android crashes, you must reboot the entire controller mid-flight. This forces your Phantom to RTH while you reboot. Hopefully, this controller allows you to reboot your Android but STILL allow you to control your aircraft during this reboot.

This is very good point, and very good question. DJI app was allways more stable in IOS than Android (probably some alliance with Apple could biggest reason for that). Honestly I cant remember any crash in IOS version of DJI app. So I was wondering if in the Crystal sky and this smart controller (i guess its enviroment is based on Android) is more stable than usual Android version of app.

From what I can tell, this will have the same problem. That said though, you should be able to kill the Go 4 app and restart it without killing the controller. I'll test this.

So no visible way to reboot the tablet separately; but you can kill the app via the settings which should work fine. That said, I just got a P4P+ not too long ago and you actually can reboot it separately.

back when I bought my 2 drones this was one of the deciding factors plus the removable camera why I went with the GoPro Karma. I know now that was a mistake but I didn't have a smart phone at the time and I loved the controller. Looks like I will have to purchase the Mavic Pro 2 and this controller. Great information and love the videos Good job

Big question is - will it load Litchi? If not then it's a no go for me.
