How to connect your dji mini 2 drone to your dji Remote Control and dji fly app on iPhone 12

[@densomerglad8421]

Best explanation on KZbin, I've been watching for days looking for something as simple and useful as this! Thanks a lot!

[@TomLeeman]

You're very welcome!

[@TylerTechUTube]

My uncle Bob and I appreciate your video.

[@TomLeeman]

I appreciate that and say hello to uncle Bob

[@luxlifelondon]

Tom your quick and easy drone setup tutorials have helped me SO much! I was so stuck trying to figure out how to power up this thing and connect it. Thank you thank you thank you!! 🙏🏼

[@TomLeeman]

You're welcome! Enjoy your drone and thanks for watching

[@jonmustafa3969]

Mine has an usb c plug in but i need one for my iphone 14, does it have one in the box or do I have to buy it? Thank you!

[@TomLeeman]

When we bought this one, it came with a lightning connector for iPhone up to 14 but now you’re gonna have to use the USB-C if you have an iPhone 15 and it does come with one of those I think if not, they’re pretty cheap on Amazon

[@Desertroadtrip]

Hi, does the RC-N3 just come with the lightning cable from stock?

[@TomLeeman]

Yes, when you get the controller just look underneath. It has the lightning cable in there. The other cables are put in the box.

[@Desertroadtrip]

@@TomLeeman thanks

[@christophersmith-zn2kn]

Hi tom. To use this remote do I need to activate roaming data and locations on my phone.

[@TomLeeman]

Nope, I don’t think you have to do anything like that. You just gotta connect it with the app and you should be good.

[@THEYALLFLOAT-sy4ij]

Did you have to buy the cable because mine didn’t come with it only type c and micro one only

[@TomLeeman]

The Apple cable is in the controller underneath that little pop out

[@THEYALLFLOAT-sy4ij]

Thank u sir much appreciated I didn’t see it in there but yes thank u

[@Light_357]

Omg you had to pull the lightning cable out of the remote. Such a pain. How did you manage??

[@TomLeeman]

Very carefully thanks for watching

[@Brian.Melnyk]

Tom you saved my life. Learning on the fly!

[@TomLeeman]

Good luck enjoy your drone and thanks for watching

[@HankMauro]

No pun intended? haha

[@djalvarezm]

I used an Iphone 12 for about a year together with a mini 3, but now It dosn't pair!! I dont understand because I plug the same cable to others phones and they connect automatically

[@TomLeeman]

That’s weird it should work just like any other iPhone

[@todaynotnow]

Does it need the SD card in it to work?

[@TomLeeman]

If you want to collect the video data, I recommend using it

[@davidvillanueva6191]

I have to pop out the SD card to connect then pop it back in, otherwise no connection

[@TomLeeman]

That’s an interesting observation

[@bf1513]

Did you find any apps that doesn't require subscription? There were like 3 at android app store for me, it's ridiculous I've payed for the drone why should i pay more

[@TomLeeman]

The app should be free and I understand the subscription. I have a free app on my iPhone.

[@yudistiradrone]

Which to power on firstly, remote or drone ?

[@TomLeeman]

I turned the controller on first

[@hehepoop6542]

I don’t know if you’ll respond to this but when I try to turn on the actual drone the lights don’t turn on at all

[@TomLeeman]

You may have a bad battery. Gotta make sure that you’ve got a fully charged battery in there Good luck thanks for watching.

[@mansoorkiani2497]

I have Samsungbs21 bmand followed ur steps but drone won't pair to app😢 why?

[@TomLeeman]

I’ve never used a Samsung so I would have to research that but it should work about the same. You have to turn on the controller first and then the drone with the back facing you. Good luck thanks for watching.

[@AverageJoe46549]

Does it support usb-c for samsung?

[@TomLeeman]

I’m sure you could use any USB-C good luck. Enjoy your drone.

[@AverageJoe46549]

@TomLeeman yes. Samsung uses standard usb-c I was just making sure not only lightning (apple) cable was supported. Thank you.

[@Normanskie]

Does the DJI Fly App, does that automatically upload the software and put itself on the phone or do you have to do that beforehand?

[@TomLeeman]

The best thing you can do is first go to the App Store for either Google or Apple download the application and follow the prompts. Once you have it on your phone then you can use it with your mini drone. It will not automatically download you have to do it. Good luck and enjoy your drone. Thanks for watching.

[@berkkarsi]

Thank you so much for this. I didn't know I had to press the power buttons once and then hold them down to turn them on. Maybe if I wasn't lazy and read the manual I would've known but thanks anyways. Unfortunately my drone can't fly because it gives a navigation error.

[@TomLeeman]

Check a software update. Good luck thanks.

[@Leigh_Nathan_Calderon]

How about me? I use rc with built in screen in my dji mini 3 I can’t set it up

[@TomLeeman]

I have not used the DJ mini three, but it’s got to be something to do with the connection on mine. I have to press it and then press and hold on both the controller and the drone and the drone has its back facing me to make sure that your application is working, you’re using the phone but you said you have a screen on yours so it should be even easier I’ll have to buy

[@katherineleung1354]

thank you!! this helped me so much - I couldn't figure it out for the longest time!

[@TomLeeman]

You're welcome! Enjoy your drone and thanks for watching

[@marcosmontesano9787]

I'm still having trouble connecting my drone my cell phone is a Motorola so why do I do go to Google Play or I don't know how to scan it

[@TomLeeman]

You should be able to download the app from Google play onto your phone and use the connectors, which I think are USB-C’s and I have to tell you it takes a couple minutes for it to initialize after you’ve done everything on the controller you press the button once and then press and hold same thing on the drone the drone and make some clicks and then you should see the application open up but it may take a minute or two

[@hacktheropy1758]

I have like 20 uncles named bob now !! Thank you sir!!

[@TomLeeman]

That is awesome! Bob, your uncle

[@Rismaefitry-ks9wl]

Does you drone dji wait waeder automatically

[@TomLeeman]

Not sure of the question, but I know that when you first come together, it takes a little while for it to connect

[@jrlikeag6]

Hey! BOB MY UNCLE! Thank you for your video!

[@TomLeeman]

My pleasure!! Enjoy your drone.

[@ravimuthayah]

Easy peezy superb video

[@TomLeeman]

Enjoy your drone

[@TomLeeman]

Welcome and have fun with your drone

[@pwalz100]

You saved me so much time and trouble!

[@TomLeeman]

Glad I could help enjoy your drone

[@GHExploration]

Now ive done that how do i start it flying without the app or phone (android user) ive followed instructions as to where to point the sticks, nothing happens 😢

[@TomLeeman]

You have to download the app onto either an iPhone, or an android to only way you can make it fly

[@TomLeeman]

Good job glad you got it out. Enjoy your drone.

[@darrenatics2754]

Buy me one pls🥺

[@wailee8191]

The problem with mine is the two lights next to the power button is turning on and the red light continues to flash. The camera is pairing but the drone itself is taking flight (the connection to the phone and the remote is the correct place.

[@TomLeeman]

It takes a while for it to initialize so once you’re out there you got everything set up you have the back of the drone facing you you may have to wait a couple minutes for this to happen You’ll see on right corner of your phone it’s ready to takeoff but it will ales a while

[@larrylee7188]

What did you do that was different from the first video?

[@TomLeeman]

Press once then press and hold the lights blink and you’ll hear beeps and the controller and then do the same on the drone

[@moosedog71]

he turned the transmitter on

[@RANADIKS]

uncle i like your video from.philippines😅

[@TomLeeman]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@TomLeeman]

Actually, the smaller phone is much better because it fits easier into the cradle. Good luck enjoy your drone.

[@grubbb]

You might want to slow down a bit. In your haste to 'Go Fly' you didn't see the "Installing Firmware" message at the top left of the screen. Always make sure your firmware is up to date! Otherwise, thanks for the video.

[@TomLeeman]

I know you’re right I am always in a hurry so excited to get this thing in the air thanks for the tip thanks for watching

[@AminuAliyu-ej6ut]

pls is that the normal iphone 12 i'll subscribe

[@TomLeeman]

That’s a promax

[@AminuAliyu-ej6ut]

@@TomLeeman OK thank you

[@AminuAliyu-ej6ut]

do you the normal iphone 12 will also be a good size for it?

[@rebecamartinez691]

Excellent video. You gave simple instructions. Thank you

[@TomLeeman]

You're welcome! Enjoy your drone

[@freshboy8968]

Amazing thank you iam actually gonna grt this in a while and also you should do a full tutorial on what and how to setup the setting ins the app and flight and everything else

[@TomLeeman]

[@advredbikes]

Thank you Tom, OMG that helped me soo much!!!

[@TomLeeman]

Glad I could help. Enjoy your drone and thank you for watching.

[@tjlivepro5778]

My controller keeps giving me the (accessory is not supported by this device) I’m using an iPhone 13 pro max , everything’s updated ,when I try to update the firmware for the remote it says (cannot load firmware ) please help

[@TomLeeman]

Try powering down the phone and powering it up then connected press the controller once then press and hold, then press once on the drone and press and hold weight it takes a couple seconds for it to kick in then look on your phone and you should be viewing with the camera sees on the drone

[@tjlivepro5778]

I tried so much I believe there’s a problem with the remote ,because when I plugged it up to my computer on the DJI assistance 2 app it wouldn’t even load the firm ware from the remote ,, I’ve spend hours looking at videos trying to link the remote to my phone but I keep getting the same results , I’ll post a video

[@ShaneScott-ir9ol]

Why does my dji app want me to pay a monthly fee does it cost money to fly it?

[@TomLeeman]

You should not have to pay anything it’s free

[@vlad3p1ck79]

My drone white lights does not blink. They stay turned always

[@vlad3p1ck79]

Is this a problem?

[@TomLeeman]

As long as it works, you should be OK

[@Potato-_-]

I cant take out the the apple cable its stuck in there

[@TomLeeman]

Oh no I’m not sure what you need to do. I would have to look at it. Good luck. I hope it all works out and thanks for watching.

[@Potato-_-]

I had to use pliers to get it out Hahah

[@easynowoldchap04]

Have you got to pay for the app or can you use it for free

[@TomLeeman]

The app is free you just download it from the android or Apple store

[@ComedyGold-ml8wc]

I think you have to pay

[@Zekeyy]

Thanks enjoy your drone

[@Sayitaint_So]

none of that matters if you can't make contact with the satellite ... so before you go flying make sure you note the trail of information you provided to DJI while setting up the app or else you end up sh#t creek like me and sit on a couch staring at a grand of drone equipment while trying to figure out how to get back in flight.... steaming at my ignorance at this point... and make sure you don't buy a second hand drone b4 you get the said info from the original owner...

[@TomLeeman]
