Hello all,

will the RC Pro Enterprise be able to use Android 3rd party apps such as Litchi (when developped using SDK)?

So installation of third party apps are supported, but the installation of your own DJI Fly app is blocked. If you could explain why DJI has decided to ban their own app from the RC Pro Enterprise, there's a lot of us here that would be all ears.

When you say it like that it sounds pretty silly.

The reality of it is that 3rd party apps can only use the features already available in the SDK. So a third party app can’t use other frame rates or a histogram, for example, that aren’t already there. So while allowing 3rd party apps seems like a major benefit, they can only act as a skin. Giving us the fly app would require actually giving us features we don’t have yet. You know the ones my Mavic Mini has, or my Phantom 3.

Even if we couldn't use DJI Fly with the M3E it'd still be nice to be able to install it and use our controller with the consumer Mavic 3's that DJI forced us to buy.

Long time no see, last time I heard from you was when you said you'd quit replying to my posts. Guess that didn't last. Since I assume you've missed out on recent findings I'll just have to bring you up to speed.

Jiggby21 and I have successfully flashed our controllers to that of the regular RC Pro. Jiggby21 went a step further and actually paired it to a consumer drone and flew it just fine. So the link you posted has been confirmed as misinformation and a total fabrication on DJIs part. You are obviously clueless on the subject being discussed here so please stay in the section of these forums where you might have some experience.

Let's be clear,
With the same firmware it is currently not possible to make all the DJI drones compatible. The reason given by the DJI staff is entirely acceptable, they do not use the same protocol.

While waiting for a firmware that manages all protocols, you can certainly have fun switching the firmware of your radios. If you get paid by the hour, and don't mind bricking your RC, why not!

I did not know that some users could have the right to recommend a section more than another to other users.
We would be curious to know why some talented operator of this forum recently used the DJI Care. They may not be as skilled as they claim.

No one was targeted in particular.

Thank you for your response and we totally understand your request. We have not managed the compatibility for the DJI Fly app and the RC PRO enterprise controller therefore, we may not be able to assure the performance of installation and usage. Besides, the RC PRO enterprise controller is not compatible with consumer drones even though the DJI Fly app can be installed and used, the controller will not work with consumer drones. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Just to be clear on my part.  Contrary to what DJI is saying in this very thread I was able to install the DJI Go App on my Enterprise RC and fly my Mavic 3 Classic and my Mavic Air 2S no problem. It was extremely easy and it worked just fine.

Every time the RC was powered off the app disappeared so I also just want to make clear that it is ultimately a waste of time and nowhere near a solution. But for DJI to say it is not possible is just a flat out lie.

"it is ultimately a waste of time and nowhere near a solution"
Thank you, that's exactly the comment that was missing.
I put myself in the shoes of those who are asking the same question and come across the thread. They could easily be tricked into thinking that yes it is doable without side effects. Now the problem is solved.


It is only a protocol issue, the problem is not new I have already encountered it with Spektrum when they moved from DSM to DSM2 and now DSMx, and Futaba from FHSS to S-FHSS and now T-FHSS, not to mention the FASST. It took some time to have RC compatible with both.


DJI owes us nothing, we agree to buy their product with their characteristics. I find it rather honest of DJI to say directly that no it will not work. Whatever the reason.

HERE HERE!!!! i SECOND THAT MOTION SIR.

I have been an Avata owner for a few days now. (I haven't flown it yet) because I do not own the right phone. I borrowed a phone to activate it (and seriously..this was the advice I got when I called DJI) go borrow a phone... or send the drone back.. literally what the man said. So.. I did.. I left my phone buddy's house and went home eager to get in the air. I have had several drones, and even had a little company years ago when it was all brand new tech. anyways...... I turn everything on, and there is a red box in my goggles .. informing me that we are going NOWHERE. I have to plug myself into that damn app EVERY SINGLE TIME I FLY NOW. So I'm sitting here. trying to decide what to do. send the thing back, or buy a cell phone I don't need. (A cell phone that is COMPATIBLE with the app that is COMPATIBLE with nothing).. Plus order a chest pack I guess to carry it all in with the battery. I don't even know at this point if there is an app that will satisfy RID on android, and is compatible with MY android, AND the AVATA. Lots of apps don't list AVATA ass one of the models they work with.

so at this point I'm wondering.....

Why doesn't DJI just start selling $1,300 cell phones with a bloat app on it? Then throw the drone in for free.

The Avata and its compatibility issues are not the subject here.  You got the wrong thread comrade.

There is an Avata section, where many users have already reported this problem.

Good Luck

Hi DJI Paladin,

is DJI planning to implement support for cross platform functionalyty?

So I can use one controller for several compatible devices.

Map Pilot Pro has been working well on our RC Pro Enterprise remote and M3E. There is a separate "enterprise only" APK that has to be downloaded.

Do you know if this app manages the connection to the NTRIP server? I can't find the information on their website. It says "Advanced Hardware Support" maybe this is it?

As a professional user, I wouldn't recommend playing with RC-C2C/UAV link you could encounter issue and crash: this would greatly impact the drone community in a very bad manner.

In short : follow UAS specs as defined by UAS manufacturer ( even if they seems "weird" ).

My 2 cents :-p
