Good news is that DJI sent out my replacement drone quickly. Bad news is the RC firmware download is painfully slow. Yes, I have blazing fast fiber service and a very strong wifi connection. It woudl take my computer a few seconds to download this but here I am hours later...

Any thoughts?

Are you updating the FW via the Fly App or Assistant 2?

This is a DJI RC so using the internal software to update. Not sure there is any other way.

I've used the DJI Assistant 2 for consumer drones series to update my Mini 3 Pro, RC and batteries.  Seems faster to me than using the built in Fly App.  Latest version is 2.1.18 and link to download is below if you need it.

Got it to work, thanks! Much better than the slow progress on the RC.

Hi,
Mini 3 and RC.

Is it possible to download and instal the DJI Virtual Flight App android version on the RC controller so I can practice inside when it is cold and rainy ( safer for the drone also, lol)  I'm 75 and not as fast at learning as my 7 yr old!

If that isn't possible maybe the rc-n1 would work with my Ipad mini ?


Ideas?


Thank you

From what I understand the RC is not compatible with virtual flight yet. Hope they update this in the future.

Any plans to update the flight simulator to work with more controllers?

It failed the first time I tried, but did it the second time and took just over ten minutes to fully install, which was quite a long time considering the update was only fixed a few bugs.
