Hello everyone, So I bought Dji mini 3 a few days ago and my first flight was amazing however on 2 days my remote while starting was giving me the Remote Control Calibration required error (Code 60010). I tried to do it as it is done from the setting but the right analogue (forward) and (backward) dials are not responding. the aircraft can go up and down and also right and left but cant goes forward and backwards. sometimes the error is gone and works fine but then after flying it again the remote gives the same error. Also in RC calibration everything is fine but the right analogue forward and back dial is not working. Please help me out. The done is absolutely new and I haven't even flown it properly yet.

Hi there. Thank you for reaching out and we're deeply sorry for the trouble that this has caused. Can you please try to download the DJI Assistant 2 software on your PC or Mac and kindly please update/refresh the firmware of both aircraft and especially the RC to see if the issue persists? After the successful update or refresh, kindly please perform the RC calibration and re-link the aircraft to the controller, and check if there are any changes. You may download the software using the link below. Please keep us posted. Thank you.

Had the exact same problem. Right "Zoom" dial would not register during calibration.

Performed all calibrations before flying, including RC calibration successfully.
I flew 3 batteries today, and used the zoom function in both video and photos with no issues.
The RC Calibration error message started appearing after todays flights.

Contacted DJI support via phone.
There was no suggestion of using DJI Assistant to fix the problem.
Hope this works for you.

Just sent the RC back to DJI for repair.

Will DJI assistant even work with these remotes?

Just had exactly the same problem with my RC with the added aggravation that it won't connect the the drone so can't fly at all. I loaded DJI Assistant and reloaded the RC firmware and still the problem is there!! I guess its a phone call to DJI on Monday!

Hello Everyone, I never got back to this but I fixed it on my own on the same day with the help of my brother who deals in robotics. Sadly in our country, there is no official shop for DJI. I had an idea that it was a hardware issue, we opened the remote with the help of a youtube video and my brother looked into it; apparently, the clip of the right analogue was closely connected to its port. We just inserted the clip back into its port ad after that it was perfectly fine. Although I was kinda sceptical that how a new remote can have this issue, maybe something happened while they were assembling it on the production line?

That's interesting, I never had this calibration come up, I have never been asked to do the dials or sticks, i have done the compass in the RC, only.

Experiencing the same problem. This is the second time now. On the previous instance I drove more than 3 hours to an destination to fly and could not use the drone to complete the shots I wanted to record. Back home, the problem disappeared after fiddling around with the controller for a while. Experienced the same problem today after I drove to a location to fly - could not use the drone at all. Still sitting with the problem at home. RC calibration required - both scroll wheels UNRESPONSIVE when performing the calibration! Seems like the issue pops up after software updates? PLEASE DJI, I NEED AN SOLUTION!!!

Just got the DJI RC last week. First flight with my Air2s outdoors and suddenly the remote became unresponsive. Thankfully the RTH function works. The remote was asking for calibration and similar to others, the rotating wheels did not register.

I googled and read about SD card causing this issue. I ejected the SD and calibrated the RC—- it worked. I did a quick flight and it seemed okay.

I’m thinking its the SD card messing with the RC.

So just had calibration issue again for second time on my 3 mini pro, out on a shoot total disaster can’t use drone. Read this post and remembered I had just put a sd card in remote. So took sd card out of remote and all of a sudden no calibration error and remote worked fine! Get that! Obvs an issue with these smart remotes and sd cards. Thanks for your post it saved the day.

Hi there. Thanks for reaching out, and apologies for the inconvenience. Kindly upload a video of the calibration process for further checking. Thanks for your cooperation.

Hey there!

Same problem here (no calibration possible because of the righthand dial not responding) and resolved the issue by following Namlas advice: just pushed a bit harder down the connector port and calibration got back to normal.
For sure crank open the remote control is a delicate task but worth it. Just take your time, have the right tools and should not be hard!
Looks like it was loosely connected indeed. I've put a bit of tape to hold it dow and inchallah no error anymore
Hope it helps!
