I own DJI Maciv Pro and  I lost the original USB charging cord for my remote control.. I tired buying this one off Amazon but I cant get it to work for the life of me. I cant charge up my remote controller using this cord.. As soon as you plug in your USB remote cord to your USB bank it should light up the controller and tell you how much persentage is charging. When I plug my remote in i get nothing.... I only have 20% power left so I can turn it on but I cant seem to figure out how to charge the remote... What are your thoughts and conerns please?

I have tired another one but still the same results.. I can't get the percentage on the remote to light up when plugged in.Do you know where I can an offical DJI black USB cord instead of these cheap amazon ones? I cant believe that they dont sell the offical black cable on the DJI Offical website that came with the Mavic Pro for charging up your remote control.. Any help would you be greatly appreciated?

Hi there FLPilotShark. Thank you for the reply and for these information. You may try check our DJI Where To Buy platform on this link ( https://www.dji.com/where-to-buy ) to see if those cables that you need is available. In addition I hope that you can get some recommendations from our DJI Co pilots with regards to this inquiry as well. Thank you.

Its most likely the charging brick.  Most of the phone ones use the 1A charging.  I don't think thats enough to charge the controller.
If you still have the power charger for the drone, there is a USB connection on the side of it.  Try plugging in there, and see if it'll charge then.

As a side note, not all cables are made the same.  You might want to look at the packaging and make sure it says data and charging.  Otherwise, it may be just a data cable.

Its not the brick OR THE Connector on the remote b/c I can charge my Mavic Pro Lipos plus I can fit the cord in the controller in the connector with out any issues..
This was the cabel I bought which should plug in your remote and plug into the wall or the power brick and the remote should light up as I rememeber on a % its charging..For the love of god can someone help me since i have a shoot this weekend?

Yes, you can charge your batteries with it, but, can't charge your remote.  Which is why I stated, to try the charger that came with the drone.   If the remote still will not charge, then, you either have a bad battery in the remote, or a cable issue.

turn everything on like you normally would then under the remote setting is a "link remote" or "Bind remote" click that and the remote should start beeping. while its beeping theres a small button on the side of the drone, under one of the small covers. push and hold that. there should be a red light near the button that turns green and the beeping should stop as well.

Thanks for the feedback and I will give that a shot with my new remote..

Boom, I figured it out, all you do link to the new Macvic Pro controller to your aircarft and you are good to go..
For those who run into this problem where you have to either replace your currrent remote or your connector inside of your remote is shot and you need to buy a new remote.. It took less than 5 minutes to link and it was my first time.  Actually just launched my Mavic Pro for the first time in a few months...
Everything has been linked togerther and ready to fly like a bird....
