I have an apple iphone facing the same issues. So whats the fix? Plugging in and using a different iphone??? No sense at all!!!

[@user-ej2jh2ne9y]

Fix it?

[@richardestrada4109]

My iPhone won’t read it but my wife’s will, did you figure out a way to get it to connect?

[@Matromm]

@@richardestrada4109 i had the same problem with connection check if you have enabled USB Debbuging in programmers options - on my phone that option was off thats why it didnt connect with controller

[@steamerjohn9212]

My phone is in a case so I need to use a short stubby extention. Tried a new extention and all good now. Never would have thought to check that without your video. Thank you!

[@GrooveOn]

Glad I could help!

[@charlesdillon6155]

Thanks you helped me get back in the air

[@GrooveOn]

Not for me, I've just crashed my drone 😞

[@nicholasbrown2811]

Same here! I looked everywhere on the internet to see if I wasnt the only one, same issue. My google pixel wont connect. I have been using an old iphone 6 specifically for drone flying. I wish I could use my main phone though

[@visciousadventures]

Had same problem...was driving me mad for half an hour. Finally unplugged the USB C from the drone to the phone, flipped it around and plugged it in the other way, and now it works perfectly. Geez. Never had this issue before in two years....now all of a sudden it matters which way I plug in the USB C. Weird.

[@GrooveOn]

They can be sensitive, pain huh

[@blacqonyx0111]

Having an ESC error code, so drone refuses to take off. what do i do i have tried updating the firmware, i didnt see options for downgrading. please what do i do. i'm going crazy. the drone didnt crash or nothing

[@Matromm]

If someone have problem with connection check if you have enabled USB Debbuging in programmers options - i was sure i had it on but apparently some android update turned it off. Enabling this option resolved problem for me - my phone worked fine with apple cable but didnt connect with dji cable included with the drone or any other cable :)

[@cameyanand4205]

I crashed my mini 4 pro, it was with rc2 and after crash the view was visible but after few minutes the drone got disconnected, and now after repairing the physical damages the drone is still not getting into pairing mode or it is not getting connected to the remote

[@GrooveOn]

Have you checked the ribbon cable, they are prone to breaking when hit

[@ValentinoŠatvar]

Just clean your phone's charging port with toothpick guys. 😂

[@GrooveOn]

@@ValentinoŠatvar I tried and replaced my charger port, still no joy

[@FelixTreee]

Thanks I’ve been trying everything and was waiting to try another phone. straight away it worked. How can this be fixed though? I’m not buying a new phone just for my drone. I have a iPhone 14 pro and it always worked before. Can anyone help plz? Must be able to use my phone with it again

[@GrooveOn]

Have you double checked your port and that the cable is good, make sure a PC can see your phone to check the data link.

[@MeyersCTR]

My SE was losing connection out about 600 feet. I immediately started back. It disappeared & lost all connection about 170 feet from home point. Even though RTH was enabled, it never kicked in. It’s lost. I was using cable supplied with the unit.

[@GrooveOn]

That's crap, so gutted for you

[@SB-gy2vx]

Try restarting your phones people, it did the job for me...

[@FlyOrlando-hf7um]

Didn t help

[@justkelly14]

our drone is the same i can see the drone cam on my phone, my problem is evry time the drone goes far frm me or high it looses its connection and I cannot navigate the drone anymore

[@GrooveOn]

@@justkelly14 that may be to do with your signal strength, have you tried on another area with better signal?

[@justkelly14]

@@GrooveOn i did but its all the same error

[@bloxyman22]

does not fix my issues.. barely used the drone after being in storage the POS no longer pairs no matter which phone i use. Controller CLEARLY has contact with the POS as it stops pairing after a few seconds if drone is in pairing modus, but drone itself still stuck int hat pairing and nothing happens.. no error no nothing

[@rastislavbodnar5218]

Restart phone was enough. It Works now

[@jayjurasevsky1109]

Same here 🤌🏻

[@cob571]

Absolutely this. I was getting ready to reformat my new phone until I saw your comment and decided "heck, might as well try this first" Thank you :')

[@davey3765]

half the connection issues ive had have been with bad cables OR the phone/tablet case is blocking the connector from going in all the way

[@GrooveOn]

Great point about the case👍

[@khakan_the_solo_traveller]

My Samsung ultra first worked well with flying ny drone , but soon after some months i find out that THE RC doesnot pair with my s21 ultra ? Can anyone help me out with this😢😢

[@GrooveOn]

I would perhaps try complete uninstall and reinstall, making sure you clear cache

[@UlviAri-s1y]

My drone doesn't work the same way, it doesn't see the control, what can I do? can you help me? I changed the phone, it didn't work.

[@GrooveOn]

So you've got a proper data cable, have you discussed l downloaded the correct software on phone first mate?

[@UlviAri-s1y]

@@GrooveOn I bought it, I tried it, it doesn't work. Today I opened Control and looked inside and there is a broken somewhere.

[@GrooveOn]

@@UlviAri-s1y wood, is it new? Take it back

[@Strika69247]

Bought the DJI mini 3. Took a total of about 6 flights in 3 days. When i was going to take it out again the controller wouldnt connect so i decided to try and pair them manually. The drone wont enter pairing mode. Read online it could be the battery is too low. So i decide to charge it on the same block, cord and outlet combination that worked multiple times already. This time the battery didn't seem to be charging. Managed to get it to charge but took 12 hours. Still wont enter pairing mode. Read online to try and reset firmware. Computer doesnt recognize drone regardless of what cord i use. Decided to bite the bullet and spend the last of my savings on a new battery (rest spent on dji mini 3) in hopes it would solve my issue based on everything i read. Still in the same position. Not sure what to do other than currently trying to contact their customer service. Any ideas what my issue may be?

[@saschakunz3556]

Thank you. This fixed my issue.

[@GrooveOn]

Great to hear

[@shakib712]

Thank you so so much!!!

[@GrooveOn]

You're welcome!

[@danielriley5983]

I have the same issue. I bought a Samsung A23 phone. Drone and controller would not link. I switched back to my Samsung Galaxy A51 phone and problem solved.

[@GrooveOn]

Nice one

Thanks, very informative, we have subscribed

[@GrooveOn]

Thanks,

[@michaelpolcino]

So I have to keep buying new phones every time I have this problem…. that’s pretty stupid. Anyone know if the DJI mini 3 controller works with the mini 2 drone? Because that controller has a built in screen

[@GrooveOn]

why would you need to keep buying new phones? just check your phone is 100% connecting on the port.

[@Matromm]

If you have problem with connection check if you have enabled USB Debbuging in programmers options - enabling it resolved my problem with it

[@rodel2.056]

Nice drone😊

[@GrooveOn]

Thanks 😀

[@spanky2313]

Thank You

[@NHC8]

LED lights in my drone are not glowing, whats the issue?

[@GrooveOn]

The led lights have different flashes and mean differen things, Make sure you have downloaded the correct software to your phone, then use your phone to navigate throught the set up and choose your drone model. Good Luck

[@jamie6165]

Ok so I have this. It all started after I used a cheap cable to charge my phone.

[@CornpopTheBadDude1]

Getting a "cannot format SD camera "and "cannot format internal storage". SPent $35 on extreme fast SD card. Anyone else getting these error messages? Never again buying a DJI bs drone

[@GrooveOn]

have you tried formatting the card in your PC as a full format. I have not heard of any issues that you have, there other makes of drones, but I would say DJI are one the best out there.

[@CornpopTheBadDude1]

@@GrooveOn I did the basic formatting that videos on here suggest to do. But I think I found the main issue, and that is that I don't have the right SD card. I'd say 90% of problems people are experiencing with these drones are because of that issue.

[@CornpopTheBadDude1]

@@GrooveOn thank you for the video, it did help me diagnose my problem.

[@FictionalPersonality]

Step 1: have a SECOND phone

[@joshadams9533]

Not everyone has spare phones floating around. You haven’t fixed the issue at all

[@GrooveOn]

@@joshadams9533 the issue for me was not the drone and the phone, the video explains that you should not rule out the phone and check the connection

[@stephensutton6759]

so to make it work use an older phone? Man I hope not.

[@GrooveOn]

@@stephensutton6759 just check your phone can connect and send data via the port

[@Matromm]

If you have problem with connection check if you have enabled USB Debbuging in programmers options - enabling it resolved my problem with it

[@davidblake83]

I can connect to the camera but my drone still won't fly

[@GrooveOn]

What's the error that shows? Check GPS, when you take off are you holding the take off button for 1 or 2 secs on phone?

[@yukinosteelw1832]

Esta de miercoles no sirve tu video

why does everyones dji fly app look different

[@costapi1672]

Dont you view your video before you post it ...what is the matter with you dont you see the GLARE???

[@GrooveOn]

It's tricky to film sometimes, the glare is annoying. I do the videos to help others, it's the first time I've had someone comment on the glare.

[@SAK.124]

​@@GrooveOnignore people like the one above. Video could have been perfect and they would still find something to complain about

[@GrooveOn]

@@SAK.124 thanks for that, it's tricky when you are just yourself, this was an early one of mine so try to get better. I often wonder for people like yourself if you have a job to reassure people as there are some lovely people out there, that keeps you going, KZbin channels are hard work!
