[@DroneSupremacy]

Had to re-upload the video because of issues with KZbin. Anyway, enjoy!

[@leonardgleicher]

Your materials are always very helpful.

[@ricbish]

Great video thank you! I was wondering how did you get the google play store to the device? I can't seem to get it to install so I can download third party apps! Thx...

[@b.wiggins714]

Great tips - I love economy of motion in everything I do and you crushed it. Bravo.

[@DroneSupremacy]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@650ib]

I found these tips very useful thanks!

[@tychau100]

Quick guide and very useful. Thank bro🤙

[@BRO-vk7oi]

Awesome video

[@abdulmajidhussain8487]

Mike good day. Greeting from Singapore. This KZbin video may be already 2 years however I just found this tutorial and I just bought the DJI Smart Controller. Question: How can I download the 3rd party apps into this device? If you have the time maybe you can create the update version of DJI Smart Controller tutorial. Thanks

[@erayaltay2208]

very useful video thanks man

[@danreynolds8028]

Excellent job! I was wondering if Litchi now works with the Smart Controller?

[@smaganas]

Great tips!!!

[@MrEye4get]

Great video! OS is based on android but not 100% android. Several drone related apps I use won't install. Any updates on SkyTalk?

[@lynsmith1096]

Good tips Mike

[@LifeAsDane]

Thanks for video. One thing You are only accessing the helpful drone apps via WiFi so out in the field you’d have to tether to phone still to make use of them where/when needed

[@dronescape9991]

Setting the "Return to Home" point with the DJI Smart controller is restricted to the launch point only. Which is a huge problem if you want to launch your drone from, say, a moving boat! I can't understand why DJI left this feature off. I often set my RTH point to the actual hand set because it allows me to move location and still bring my drone back to me.

[@TravelsByTrike]

Thanks, Mike. How did you get the play store app on the smart remote? I would like to have UAV forecast installed too.

[@DroneSupremacy]

You can search the "Amazon store" via the web browser, there you can see the UAV Forecast app :)

[@TravelsByTrike]

@@DroneSupremacy I can't find the UAV forecast app at Amazon using the controller browser or even from my laptop.

[@TravelsByTrike]

@@ThatVideographerNick thanks!

[@CharlesSartori]

Friend, congratulations on the video !! Do you know how to activate the dynamic home point in the Smart Controller so that the drone comes up to control? For in my gives error when choosing the desired option.

[@robbyducati]

Well done bud!

[@dhansel4835]

I ordered and received the DJI Mavic 2 Zoom Smart controller. It came in OK. I watched numerous videos about unboxing and setting up of the controller. In these videos included in the controller box was USB-C cable and a charging adapter. There wasn’t a charging adapter included in my order, just the USB-C cable.

[@Nyemaster]

Thanks Mike

[@DrStephenVerdon]

Thank you Maestro...

[@choppergirl]

No play store, so what did you use, apk files? Is the thing rooted? How did you root it? I don't think this thing comes with Play Store, and I don't know if the controller part can control a homebrew quad through the DJI FPV digital air unit... I'm not even sure if it can receive that 50mbs kind of digital video even... very unclear on their website... so those are kind of deal breakers.

[@garywboisseau]

Good question. He never actually addresses this. I cannot figure out how to get the Google Play store on my smart controller. I have to use the DJI Pilot app with my Mavic 2 Enterprise Dual. Argh.

[@marcosuozzi]

Hello 🤗 thank your this video 👍 how did you get UAV forecast? Does the map in there work? Greeting from switzerland

[@TravelsByTrike]

Yes, this is what I want to know as well.

[@cuuppaajoe]

Thank you Mike as always for your informative video. I have a quick question you may know the answer to. When taking the SD card from the Mavic and placing it in the controller, can you use the go share app to transfer the full D-Log footage lossless? Thanks again and look forward to more videos to come.

[@dhansel4835]

My new Mavic 2 zoom smart controller works great. One thing is that the screen goes dark in a few minutes when you are out of the DJI Go4 App. I went into the settings to change the time of the screen going to sleep but never found anything. Any suggestions?

[@LozanoJorgeLorza]

Great Video thanks. I have two drives that I tried to connect to smart controller but it does not read them. They are Mac formatted. Is that the problem?

[@TheGroundBelow]

Can you get Google Maps on the Smart controller for using waypoints 2.0 etc ?

[@giovannissimodifoto]

Do you more tips about how to program the controller to save media into SD card? I am flying two drones with the same controller and one does it but no the other :/

[@TonyStagge]

Great stuff, thanks!

[@zavtravels4546]

Mike, what source do you use to download apps?

[@AtortAerials]

Yeah that is what I am flustered about. I almost enjoy using my iPhone more because I have the LTE connection always there to use....my smart controller I have to use iPhone as a hot spot? Not sure if I am going to keep this guy or swap out for the other one with regular remote.

[@randomstuff53078]

Can you stream live with this? How?

[@tundrawhisperer4821]

Any issues using the go share app feature to share from the remote which is android to an iPhone apple device?

[@tundrawhisperer4821]

So can you just use an SD card in the controller and not need one in the drone it’s self? And this will store both video and pictures?

[@BlackMeowgic]

That's how I understand it, yes. But videos and photos that get directly stored on the controller don't have original quality. It can look much worse on the controller.

[@tundrawhisperer4821]

@@BlackMeowgic Thank you for the heads up!

[@PICKLEBALLBZ]

For those that want an all in one the remote looks like a good option. Personally I still prefer the original remote with an iPad Mini. There are times that I just want to use it with a phone or as a standalone controller. Also not sure about how many bugs you will face using the device. DJI develops their apps on IOS and ports them to Andriod. They have been traditionally late in pushing out Andriod updates. Another reason I will stick with the iPad / iPhone and IOS for now.

[@renatoros4373]

Dear, the DroneDeploy app does not work with DJI Smart Controller. I use this app to work with my DJI Drone. Could you please help me? Thanks. RRos

[@Acstunts84]

Can this be use to control a DJI ronin rs2?

[@dhansel4835]

DJI has stopped making the Smart controllers for the Mavic 2 line.... Mine is only 3 years old. I hope they will start making them again.

[@itowmyhome797]

It’s now the middle of August 2021 I’m hoping for an updated version of this hardware.

[@Johncaig7279]

On my controller screen with map at full screen I can only see details when I touch it with my finger. Until I touch the screen the display is yellow with little detail. I’m sure it hasn’t always been like this. What am I now doing wrong, please?

[@WinAl62]

Hey Mike, will this work in all DJI Drones? what if mavic air, that's wifi and this remote says ocusync, will it convert the cignal from wifi to ocusync?

[@DroneSupremacy]

No, this only works with the Mavic 2 series for now, unfortunately Spark/Mavic Air won’t connect to the Smart Remote

[@WinAl62]

@@DroneSupremacy Ok mike, thanks for the info.

[@kjdjkaojg]

I think I saw on the DJI site that this also works with the Phantom 4 Pro 2.

[@keifer242]

Can you pan and tilt gimbal by touching screen not remote wheel

[@hristogergov578]

[@davidolmsted6057]

Thanks for the vid, BUT has the question been answered as to how to get google play on the controller? I can download an apk and find a few apps I use, but when I launch most of them, it says google play is not compatible with this device (the controller) Anyone? Am I cracking up? Just received my unit 3.10.2022, still messing with it. Thanks in advance.

[@arcticfoxserenity7042]

hi, I really wish you'd give more detail on how to transfer photos to iPhone. the go share doesn't seem to work at all. a lot more complicated than it seems

[@BlackMeowgic]

If I get it right, you can install other apps on the controller. Using telegram is really simple to get photos from one device to another, even if it's from Android to iOS. I have no idea if it works on this controller but you could give it a try. Sorry for the 2 years late reply :D

[@DeanTercic]

Does Go Share work with iPhone?

[@pistonwristpin1]

Hey a... Have you tried Live Streaming yet? KZbin says you need 1000 subs to even test live streaming drone footage set to “invite only”. I have not attempted the FB option, and the “Other” option, I don’t think is working... EDIT: And dude! Thanks for decreasing the time involved in my learning curve, and for making me sneer at my current weather conditions at the same time.⛈🌬🌊☔️

[@andysillaber]

sounds much more positive than your last video about the Smart REMOTE .....????

[@droneyourworld8697]

Hello help, how can i remove the micro sd from the smart control? It cannot pop out from its hole

[@CincyPhotography]

The only thing i DONT like about this remote, is that there is no WARNING meter to show you how far you can fly before losing reception. It will just completely lose reception and lose total control of aircraft without any warning at all and you worry the entire time wondering when it will drop signal.

[@mikevalencia9640]

Where do I put the SD card at

[@garywboisseau]

I still can't figure out how to live stream from the smart controller.

[@droc9988]

I cant get the go share feature to work

[@antricemccarroll2958]

Price of a VR headset

[@lukeattheocean]

it's weird that dronedeploy cant be installed in this device

[@princeyj5917]

Can someone please tell me how to install third party apps??

[@DroneSupremacy]

The best way is to use the Amazon App Store, simply search amazon app store on google and you’ll see it. From there you can search for the app you’re looking for and easily install it

[@TravelsByTrike]

UAV forecast isn't on Amazon.

[@makasii]

Litchee is now ;)

This is so silly I'm using simply a Lenovo tab m8 for 75 pounds and is doing absolutely the same job even more.
