Smart controller not connecting if there's an SD in it is just stupid.
This is not a case of things not working out as expected, but of actual bugs that shouldn't have to be so tedious to figure out and fix.
Hi Richard,
well my SC is working without or with SD card in it. It is so that when you upgrade the firmware, you better remove the SD card. After installing the new firmware, reinsert the SD card and set the default storage to either internal memory or SD card as you wish. Replacing the firmware by using the wifi of the SC is also not the best option. You better use the DJI Assistent for that.
Concerning the USB, there are lots of manufacturers and sometimes on the same pc you will find different usb-ports manufactured by different suppliers. The times you had the first standard of USB and USB2, most equipment worked fine. Introducing USB 3 and now USB c standards have made it more difficult. I had mismatches with USB 3 memory sticks in one port of my pc, that worked correctly with another port on the same pc.
I'm using a custom build pc with usb2, usb3 and usb c connectors. All of them works (luckily) with my M2P and SC. The problem of mismatches on usb can depend on both sides, DJI as well as the manufacturer of your usb-connectors. I found that it sometimes helps to put a usb-hub in between. Sometimes ... it isn't always so.
It is also possible that your devices differs a little bit of mines. A little drop in output voltage and it might make the difference between working or not working.
If the problem remains, you can try to have the equipment replaced by DJI. On the forum you get help from a fellow drone owner. We try to share our knowledge to help people with same kind of problems. I'm a retired system admin, so I try to advice people with pc related problems. The forum is monitored by DJI, but most of the time you get a sort of standard message. I would try at the shop where you bought the drone or with DJI service directly. |
