I am the only one that is having this issue? Since day one, and I have all my app and firmware versions are up to date. I use a LG G7 phone and I have not been able to customize the controls of the MA2 e.g. pull back on the stick to ascend and push forward on the stick to descend. Does this happen with anyone else?

True, but I'm more familiar with inverted controls and flew that way in the previous app. It seems like a simple fix to this bug.

Well, you are going to have to live with it, forward ascend and pulling back descend. When in custom mode you can only move control pairs clockwise or counterclockwise like a rotating dial with no flipping of the order.

In this video you can switch ascend and descend controls, but this also changes the left/right yaw controls as well.

Correct, however in the DJI Go 4 app the pairs weren't linked. If an admin can dutifully  use their people skill and pass this info up to the engineers/dev to resolve this it would be much appreciated.

Hello there BHProductions. I am sorry for the trouble the has caused you. Upon checking the said mobile device ( LG G7 ) that your are trying to use on your DJI Mavic Air 2 and with the DJI Fly application. I am sorry to say that the said mobile device is not recommended for the said drone and with the said application. We would suggest using a recommended mobile device for the DJI Mavic Air 2 and with the DJI Fly application for compatibility and reliability purposes. There is a possibility that the LG G7 will be able to work on the DJI Mavic Air 2 and with the DJI Fly application. But however, since it's not yet optimized with the said drone and with the said application we cannot guaranteed if it will work all the time and if it will be able to run all the functions of the DJI Fly application while using it on the DJI Mavic Air 2. For reference I will post a link where in you can check the recommended mobile devices for the DJI Mavic Air 2 ( https://www.dji.com/mavic-air-2/downloads ). Thank you.

Thank you for your reply Stephen,
However this issue is not phone specific as I can duplicate this problem with my Pixel 2 which is listed as a recommended device. So can you re-read my first post again as if it were on the Pixel 2?
Thank you,

I love my Air 2 but it does seem that the little touches that made the drone great are being left out.
