Hi YOYOMAN, Cendence is currently compatible with Inspire 2 and Matrice 200 series aircraft. And there is no Slave RC can be set for Phantom 4 Pro.

I just tried to link a P4P to a Cendence + Crystalsky and it does work. I've not tested it extensively but it does even unlock features not available on the standard controller such as button programs and even control over camera yaw(limited to a small degree off course).
It would be interesting if it was possible to activate master-slave dual controls for educational purposes...
Will do test flights as soon the weather permits.

I’m not gonna try dual controls or any kind of take off indoor with an untested system sorry :.) but i can try to link two controllers and see if the system can be configured in true couch mode as for the inspire 2.

Surpriseeee!
This doesn't mean that it is safe to fly and I can't even recommend it.

New interesting features available using the Cendence:
- lots of programmable functions on buttons, most of them are working properly and 99% of what a P4P needs can be hot linked, yay!
- new features unavailable with the standard controller such as gimbal yew control(not very useful imho and cannot be unbound without losing pitch control), dual remote operations/couch mode with dual controllers, right dial working in conjunction with hot keyed EV, shutter, aperture, ISO settings, manual focus with the knob(not very useful but works), things I can't recall
- exp gain for main sticks adjustable with the levers on the sides
- interchangeable batteries with Crystalsky!

This is a list of missing/non working programmable buttons/function when using Cendence to a P4P+ with firmwares up to date:
- white balance cannot be bound to a button or better you can but it doesn't work
- there is no option to do a fast downward 90° gimbal movement
- focus peaking works but hurts badly the frame rate making it unusable
- gimbal Yaw recenter works but with a strange(uneeded) quick camera movement, i'm unsure if it might cause long term damage to the motors or what, there is not much reason or need to control camera yaw on a P4P anyway so it's not a big deal
- no aircraft battery info on the Cendence small monochromatic screen, works fine on the Cystalsky

No test flights yet, but on paper the pros outvalue the cons.I wish DJI made an official support for Cendence + P4P but I know I'm just dreaming, what might happen on the other side is that they lock us out with a new firmware update without even announcing it in the changelogs, like a backstab in a dark alley, that's totally their style ;_;

Short test flight today, dual operator works as much I can tell, the master has 0 delay when overwriting the slave commands, now I wonder if this could also work with a Phantom 3 for inexpensive educational purposes.
Cheers!
