Dart had downloaded the DJI Go 4 App beforehand. He did not have to create a DJI account to fly the secondary controller however.
Dual Remote Controller Mode with the Mavic 2 worked GREAT for teaching my friend Dart how to fly today.

Good instructional video on how to set up dual controllers. I have the Mavic 2 pro and have also forgotten to remove the gimbal cover before turning on the motors. I wondered if I had damaged it in any way but am more relieved after seeing your reaction. Obviously a best practice to remove it first but not a disaster if you occasionally forget.

I purchased a zoom just after they came out and it's great for real estate and some of the street mapping I am doing. The zoom function is a must for me. I don't think the dual controller would be for me as I have enough trouble with just one controller :-)

Another good video, Ed. One thing I notice is when your actually flying (and talking) the video seems to move right along. In other words, by the time ya'll brought the M2Pro back, there was only a couple of minutes of video left. (Huh! 21 minutes went by already?!?). Where as, when I watch an informative drone video w/o any footage, my minimal brain starts to get snoozy. And it's Spring, bee swarming seems to be typical this time of year.

Can you set up the controller for the secondary remote to yaw the camera with the sticks like you can on the Inspire or is the only way he can yaw camera is via the tap and slide (Blue circle)? Nice video. Loved the bees!
@J_46 2 жыл бұрын
The secondary controller can yaw the gimbal, but not yawing the drone. For that reason in the video is showed that you can see the propellers of the drone, that is imposible with the Mavic 2 Pro with just one controller.

Nice tutorial. Are there any distance restraints using two controllers? Do they have to be close enough to communicate with each other OR can you have them at different locations to increase the range of vlos and the amount of area the drone could cover, in a search and rescue or similar situation?
@EdRickerVlogs 5 жыл бұрын
They don't need to be in close proximity to each other, just within range of the drone. Might be handy for operating across large distances where one person can trade off with the other depending on who has line of sight.

@EdRickerVlogs 5 жыл бұрын
We basically went through the dual controller functions I know about. For application in addition to training, you could use it for perhaps emergency situations where one pilot needs to focus on flying while another person is involved in search and rescue. Another could be when a non-Part 107 pilot needs to fly for commercial work. That pilot could use the secondary remote control while a Part 107 holder monitors the flight on the primary.
