Hi all,

I trained myself to fly on mode 3 with my personal drone a few years ago (as I had been playing CoD a lot, and it seemed more natural). Now I am moving into a training position and have been told that the industry standard is mode 2 so I should re-learn to fly on that mode, as it is what most tutorials online will work on. I am fine to do that, but I am looking for how I can practice flying without risking the works drones.

I have access to the Mavic 3 Enterprise with the RC Pro controller. I have a decent laptop and PC with all the required graphics cards and so on. I am not looking for FPV training or anything like that, I would just like a simulator that I can use to clock up some flying time over winter using mode 2.

I downloaded the windows .exe file for virtual flight but can't seem to get anything to fly. I have my RC Pro connected through USB-C but it appears that it only works with the FPV RC 2, which I don't have. I can see that in the controller instructions, there is the option for many controller types (including RC Pro) but I don't know how to connect it - what am I missing?

I also managed to download the DJI store directly on my RC Pro controller and have successfully launched the Virtual Flight on the controller, but it appears I have to use the on-screen joysticks rather than the actual controller joysticks, which is of course the point of all of this.

Any advice from anyone would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Nye

In the DJI Store app under explore there is a simulator currently where you can practice flying the Air3S in mode 2.

Hey, thanks for the reply. Are you referring to the one pictured? Directly on the homepage of the DJI Store? I had found this one, but it appears that I can only use the on-screen joysticks rather than the joysticks of the actual controller, which of course would be preferable. Whilst it is better than nothing, it would be better to get the feel with the joysticks. Thanks very much

Thats the one although it performs better on a phone.    Mode 2 is so easy it shouldn't take much to learn it.
