Dear DJI Team,

please provide a Firmwareupdate, adding the ability to TIMECODE sync (for instance with a tentacle sync) or simply by pressing a reset button. Supporting timecode ist a feature by many professional cameras to sync up footages from several cameras and drone in a single timeline to make perfect edit und cut of videos in a quick manner possible.

Supporting the Free Run Code (by own Clock)  would help, as the drone does not support to record audio.

I often film drone footages from open Air events, where my audio recorder provides an audio feed. My mavic 2 Pro flies arround for epic footages and crane similar scenes.
To sync up my videos with the Audio TimeCode would be just PERFECT to have.

Please add this feature to the Mavic 2 Pro and upcoming high res pro drones.

Kind Regards,
Tim

Looks like this never happened.  All of my Mavic 2 Pro files have timecode start at 00:00:00;00.

The GO4 app has the ability to record audio from your controller/phone when in flight, you could run an audio recorder with timecode and clap sync at the beginning of each record. Bit clunky but it doesn't look like DJI is ever going to add timecode sync to it's drones
