top man..... have ordered a replacement battery... thanks for taking the time to record the process for us mere mortals.. :-)

Thanks mate! Just resurrected my Mavic Pro 1 using your guide. This video is probably more relevant as time goes by and batteries die.

Hi and 'Moin Moin' from north Germany! :) I am so happy that i have found your great Video! I was afraid to throw my controller away but with your video i was able to fully restore the functionality of my Mavic Pro! So thank you very much for your help and keep going on with such good video stuff! Cheers man!

I ordered a new battery from the link you provided and followed the video and successfully replaced my battery. You Saved Me $$$ - Thank You!

Great job Rick! You have saved a lot of drone owners a lot of grief. Hard to believe the dji engineers could not engineer this controller with a small battery hatch like other transmitters.

OMG, 10 minutes and 45 seconds to finally remove the battery! BTW, it's not D GEE I. It's D Jay I.

Thanks for this video, was a great help in changing the battery in my Mavic 2 Pro controller. Though I did have a couple extra cables to deal with, it was basically the same. I found a 4500 mAH replacement, and it's working great! For the first time in months, I have a Lipo that will charge to 100% now. Thanks again.

Couldn't work our why my mavic wasn't charging up anymore, watched this tutorial, changed the battery over I bought from eBay and now works a treat. Thanks for this.

Great job Rick! I couldn’t ask for anything better! You da man!

Nice, well - detailed video, Rick! 👍 My controller battery is starting to show its age, so great to see the replacement procedure! 😉

Rick. It's guys like you who make our lives a whole lot easier. Imagine if your video didn't exist. I'd be looking to purchase a whole new controller for my drone! Thanks a whole heap. You've saved me a heap of moolah.

Good job! You are pretty easy to follow with your battery replacement. Thanks😎

Terrific video Sir. I have M2 + M3 + FPV and was about to put my old original Pro on ebay and of course battery complety discharged. It would not take a charge at all but during the course of watching your your very informative video and before ordering a replacement, I discovered that it was my USB cable that was defective. Duh!!! Thanks.

Nice and useful explanation Mr. Wharton. My remote control's battery starts to discharge faster. But now I know how to replace the battery. Warm greetings from the Netherlands

Great video Rick - saved me tossing my Mavic Pro Platinum. One small note, the first 2 screws to remove are Allen heads, not Torx bit screws.

Thanks for your video! While I had to bite my lip while you were sniffling (lol), I was able to follow your instructions and replaced my battery (after purchasing the one you recommended). When I bought my Mavic Pro, it had been siting in a warehouse since 2017, and both the battery in the RC and the battery in the AC were shot. Now, it works great! I should have watched the whole video first, I would have put the tape over the little speaker while I had it apart.

Thanks Sir, well presented..

Thank you very much for your great video including naming the source and specification for the battery. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Good New Year. M.

Thank You for a really well done advice!

Thank you for the video. You helped me out big time!

Very informative and well done, continue the great work, Thank you for the content

great video, glad I came across this Thank you

Great Job, I followed it through step by step and replaced my lipo, Thank you very much for the detailed video.

great explanation Rick. thanks for that

i just following with your video instruction to change my battery remote and work on it. thank you for your video. i subscribed your video. thanks man. great video.

Thanks for the video !! It helps a lot.

Thank you, very easy job following your video thanks again

I WILL SAVE THIS VIDEO. EXCELLENT DEMO. THANK YOU.

Hello Dear Mr. Warton, in the meantime I successfully followed your repair tutorial to change the transmitter lipo. I did use one with a higher capacity (called: HSABAT 623758-1S2P 4500mAh) compared to the given. It fits well. Thank you very much for your very good tutorial. Please let me give a small hint. Before disassembling it is helpfull to detach the lower right push button of the transmitter (located in the lower right corner of the display) otherwise it might brake by disassembling the chassis. Best regards M.

Thanks this will help!

Awesome information Sir thanks 👍🏼😊

Thanks very much for the video. Looks easy enough. But, it should be ILLEGAL for companies to make changing a battery (which WILL go bad, sooner or later), take THAT much effort. It's just criminal, IMHO.

Many thank for your great job, very good explanation best regards good flight:) Miguel

Thanks

Worked great, thanks I found a little clear rubber cube (2*3*3 mm) with a socket, after I closed up the remote. Might know what it is?

Thanks for posting man.

legend, thanks rick

Note: for the Mavic 2 (zoom or Pro) remote, disassembly is similar but not exact. When removing the button board, the tiny connectors are behind where you took out the Torx screws which you'd want to pry from the connector, lest you rip the wires from the connector, I didn't notice this, and got lucky the connectors/wires didn't break when I got the button board out. By the way, the Torx is T6, no way near T1.5. There are actually 2 Lipos in there, not 1, but probably in parallel, since rating on the label is 3.85V nominal, 4.4V max at 3950mAH. The double-sided tape is rather solid, broke a wooden skewer a few times trying to pry out the battery. I'd remove the LCD screen from the frame first before prying out the battery. There are holes under there that could be useful to push out the battery. Didn't work for me, but you might find something just the right size. If you do push through the holes or slots, use something non-metallic. I'm rather surprised the two cells are in parallel. That's never a good idea. I confirmed across the red and black leads I show 4.1V Which as an aside, I am surprised the remote shows that as 70% charge.

Great instructions. Thank you

You da man! Thank you!!!

Nice touch!

Thank you very much again I open or ready my remote control and remove the

Now I just have to wait until my battery breaks so I can do this! Thanks

Thank you very much guy 🙏🙏🙏

Thanks a bunch..

Thank you for your video.....

thx dude !

Thank you so much

Hey you, first I would thank you for the really nice step by step, then tell my history... Some months ago i suddenly experienced the totally dead battery. Neither DJI nor Reseller fixed it, even under warranty, is matter effect I bought it abroad and would cost me an arm and a leg to sent it to repairment. Then I decided to use the remote with the Power Bank adapter with the drone batteries (Pain in the...), until i found your video, and it was super easy to get to the battery and remove it. But I can't find this battery to buy, neither in my country nor i foreign lands that would ship it to my country. In your video you said that you would help those with problems, can I contact you to ask for some help? Thank you.

Thanks for the video! Great job. If I may suggest, maybe you can add some text advising to connect that connector you struggled with a bit (and so did I :) when the display piece is still not screwed in place. Thanks again!

Well done 👍

Followed video to replace with new battery. Thank you for the video! Unfortunately I still have my original problem which is the remote will turn on. Say connecting for about 4 seconds, then shut off. Have you seen this before? Any ideas?

Awesome video Rick. Yesterday I opened my backpack to find my remote soaked from a drink that leaked out. The remote was making a high pitch noise. With the help of your video I took it apart and disconnected the battery. Other than blowing it out with some dry compressed air do you have any recommendations before I reassemble. I was expecting to see some shorting out but I don't. But electronics isnt my strong point. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Harold

just as easy to use one of my duff cell pro battery's as a usb power bank, works a treat four flights( 4x battery's) and no power loss in controller. better then binning a pro battery.

Los enlaces mueren. Lo mejor es dejar la referencia con los terminos de busquedas adecuados para buscar el producto en ebay en cualquier periodo de tiempo.

I seperated the plastic from each other with plectrum. It is worth getting a few with different hardness. (you will save your nails).

Hello from Greece, nice video. I have a question, my controller drains very fast, in 10 minutes from 100% goes to 0%. But when i turn on the remote shows 80%. Plays for 10 minutes and then 0%. You think is battery or something else? Thank you

THANKS for this video of the remote tear down. Just does anyone know where I can find the little tiny 5D black joystick that's on there? One of my 3 little reproductions broke it off. And... one last thing, does that little black joystick only click all 4 ways and when pressed down? Mine only is doing that 3 ways, left, vertical press, and down

Yea I need 1 as well. Any news on a new place to buy this battery?

That's a nice video Mr. Rick, thanks for showing but you mention you bought this battery in HK. Because I stay in the far east and visit from time to time HK please can you tell me the shop or location where to find this battery. Ebay can't send this battery in the country where I stay. Thanks in advance.

Hi great video my controller is starting to get sick not lasting for its original time frame I can not find the link for a new battery you said you would put below in the comments can you please assist me with my enquire stay safe. Regards Jasmine from Sydney Australia

Great video, where is the link for the battery. Thanks

Hey Rick. Can you send the link or address in Hong Kong to order a battery? I really think the USB port is bad on the side. I have the original MAVIV Pro Platinum DRONE and remote controller. Only been used 4 time and only once as high as 100 ft. So I’m basically a beginner.. my guess is it’s just the USB that’s not charging the battery? Question: Rick, why can’t the bottom connection charge? I’ve got cables that can charge it if it can be charged from bottom.

Does this battery also work/fit the Mavic Air? (original model). I bought a used drone setup and am sure the day will come when the battery needs replacing. The internals look near identical to the Mavic Air controller except for the LCD screen, the rest looks the same.

Sounds like you built a booger castle in your nose.

Hello, I have a different type of battery than you showed in your film, there is also a larger connector strip, there are three red, three black, one yellow and one white cable. Battery 0VCPFB72H107ZG. Do you have any order documents for this or they can be bought from you?

Hi i am having a bit trouble with mavic 2 remote battery. I need replacement soon. Can you write and part number for the battery? Otherwise i need to buy another remote or smart controller(i dont want to. I like my phone). Thanks

hi that supplyer dosent have it any more would you know where can we get it >?

Been looking to replace the battery on my Mavic 2 Pro and on the back of the controller it says 3950 mAh 3.8v. Therefore this battery, may be under powering the newer Mavic 2 Pro controller. Can't seem to find a replacement on Ebay just yet. I've contacted the source you noted here and awaiting to hear if they provide this 3950 sized LiPo. Do you own a M2P at all?

Hi thks 4 your excellent video my remote control the HD button break all you now where I can get please the button I can find on EBay I need the one on the bottom where the button fix thks

I noticed you put the same battery back in that you took out. Did you do this tear down JUST to make the video?

sir rick, i just want to query. why is that my dji mavic controller is zero percent battery, it is charging but the percentage is 0% always, I observed my controller charging within 2hrs, but sad to say it is not moving the percentage.... hope you can help me to fix this problem... tnx

Great Rick, but my Mavic 2 Pro RC's Battery was leak, but unfortunately ebay doesn't ship to my country

Hi the part i need four my remote control is hd board is difulcult to change??? Thks

Need your help to get Mavic pro 2 RC battery.

Hello there kind sir, I would like to replace my dieing battery, but I don't see the batteries available anymore, what do I do? Do you have the batteries? Can I send the the controller into you?

How long das good bat. should last on when flying?

Do you know if this is the same battery for the Mavic 2 Pro controller? Do you know if the replacement procedure is the same for the M2P controller? Thanks!

Is the aftermarket battery better or the factory battery? We would probably know now that it’s 2023.

great video, but what a ball ache to change, lol

Does the mavic 2 pro have the same controller?

Hi rick, my mavics remote stopped charging at 4 pct and finally went to zero, tried replacing cable. The charging port is not broken. What could be the problem....

You don't use screwdrivers to pry it open, you'll leave a lot of marks and even break the plastic frame. Besides that, thanks for showing how to install a new battery 👍I, personally, would use some other tools, but that's just, what I would do...

While the controller is apart, does anybody see a fix to keep it from charging the android phones

Mine is from 2017 and just now the battery is lasting half as long But this don’t look fun jezzz 😮 What does DJI charge ? I’m pretty sure one of my buttons or functions won’t be there at the end 😆

I bought new batteries (they came after 4 months ago) but they did not fit Mavic 2 RC1A controller. Too small and not the same contact. If anyone have a Mavic Pro controller as Rick Warton is showing then i have two batteries for sale. Unless I find a IoT project to use them in.

Every time I post where to get a new original battery it disappears? They are available as of 6-3-2024

Please help need battery for mavic 2 controller. Please please

Battery available via Ali express

Did you not put the battery that you took out back in again? 🙄

what the F.... could they make it a click in battery like every thing alse ??????

Please learn to say DJI instead of DGI. It really bugged me throughout the video. Otherwise a pretty good and informative video. Thank you!

They really didn't make this easy. My mavic 2 pro is year old and controller battery only last for one flight, then it is empty.

Can I just pay you to do mine? :)

Loved my air suddenly decided to stop wor oth controller and drone, gutted and dji wont help one bit 20% of a mini se 😢 which amounts to be the same price and I have to send in my air for them to keep. Loved the drone hate the company no sense of customer service Or loyalty from a multi million pound company well pissed of fat cats.
