Just bought one of these things and can't figure out how to post my issue as a new thread in the forums:
Help! I have bought a Mavic Mini, and I cannot charge the remote. There are only three cables included in the box which fit into the remote controller port: a tiny remote-to-usb-C, a tiny remote-to-micro-USB, and a tiny remote-to-apple-lightning. My phone is USB C so I can use this to link the phone and remote. But when I plug the remote into my USB C charger via the remote-to-usb-C cable, it doesn't change. I've turned it on (it beeps constantly with one flashing battery light) and left it, and I've turned it off and left it. It doesn't charge at all. How do I charge it?
The remote/controller uses the same cable that you use with the drone. The white cable. It is a standard USB-A to Micro USB-B. So it does need to go into the remote/controller in a certain orientation. Although the port on the controller is an even rectangle, so you can't tell which way to insert, there is an image to the right of the port that shows you the orientation. . Interestingly you'll notice the orientation is opposite of how you plug into the drone. But it's easy, just pay attention to diagram on controller and shape of port on drone. |
