Hey, guys, I wanted to find out more info about the charging adapter and the Mavic Pro 2. Does charging the remote and ipad/iphone via the battery charging adapter slow down the battery charge?

I am relatively sure that it doesn't, but it is easy to test when you charge next time. Do it once for battery only and another time with a battery at similar level with the additional devices connected and take the battery charging time for both scenarios.

I thought about that but my batteries usually have different levels after a flight, I was hoping for a more definitive answer

Probably one of the DJI staff here will let you and us know.

IMHO,   No matter what,  if you charge BOTH it will take much less time than charging a battery,  then charging the remote.

If you'd like to solve the issue completely......  https://www.amazon.com/Fstop-Mav ... dji+mavic+2+charger

I have the P4Pro version and it's been working flawlessly since January.   Charge 3 batteries and the RC in less than 1hr 15 min.

Do you mean it will take more time? I have a multi charger like the one you linked but I would like to know how the DJI charger operates as i use that when i travel.

Sorry,   BOTH at the same time........will take far less time to charge ( stock power supply )

Than if you first charge the battery, and then charge the RC   

I do use the stock power supply to charge BOTH a battery and the RC at the same time....BUT, I also put a fan on the power supply as it WILL get hotter than charging 1 at a time.
The iPad and a Battery......the iPad draws far less than the flight battery.
