I really want Rode to make a USB-C version of this mic. I think it would be perfect for run and gunning with the DJI Osmos Pocket. The problem is that they only sell a Phone jack version, and a Lightning version. But has anyone who owns this mic tried using a USB-C to Lightning adapter, to see if it works?

You could try a USB-C male to Lightning female adapter and see if it worked.

DJI might not have that port active for a mike though.

As far as i know, you can't use ANY external mic right now because the adapter isn't officially support yet.

One reviewer tried that mic with a GoPro mic adapter, and it seemed to work unless he faked it, which I doubt.

You mean this one?  I don't believe it was actually working.
EDIT: reading the coments the tester confirmed by taping the mic that the adapter isnt actually working.
