I just went through this process a couple of weeks ago. It turned out the first set I got was the Goggles 2 and apparently Motion Controller (version 1). I returned that set and got a set with the new controller version 2 (it is the one with he extension on the trigger). DJI really needs to work on its naming conventions, waaaaay too much confusion. Even by upgrading, the binding and pairing operations are finicky. You need to ensure that the original controller, the RC or RC-N1 is unpaired in the DJI Fly app and that DJI's overlord software that monitors binding agrees. Then press the button inside the goggles and it starts its bleating, press the one on the aircraft and it does its squak. They need to be close, like under a meter. When they bind press the button on the controller and goggles and it will eventually bind as well.
This is my memory of having done it successfully, after innumerable tries. Really, I think I went through the procedure more that a dozen times before it worked. It is a very poorly implemented bit of software and the instructions leave a whole lot to be desired.
Now here is the real hurt: You have to leave your phone attached to the goggles to make it work. Something they cleverly leave out of any and all the instructions. Why, the goggles and Mini 3 Pro controller combo alone cannot generate a position for the Remote ID. Many say you can detach the phone once you take off. An operation, that when wearing the goggles and flying the aircraft with the controller, which responds to the slightest movement, requires more limbs than I personally have. Once you do detach the USB-C cable going to your phone, you get a large yellow banner in your goggle that Remote ID is malfunctioning. Yes you can still fly, with this obscuring part of the screen. NO the phone will not bluetooth the position, only via hard wire hookup. So to make it really work you need to have a cable running along the side of your head in addition to the battery cable. |
