Hi all,

I have just unboxed Mini 2 and found the problem. RC connects with drone - ok, DJI Fly is up to date - ok, I follow all steps to connect phone, select drone type and try to see camera image. But l DJI Fly reports that it can't connect to RC. I tried with two different phones (and cables as well) - Samsung S10 (usb-c) and Samsung S7 (micro usb). I tried to restart phones. Nothing works. I read that a few people had similiar problems with Air2 controller. Anyone having the same issue and a way to fix it?

Hello,

unfortunatly have the same problems as Jag, the controller won't connect to iPhone X or Motorola G7 with Android 10. Tried restarting the phones, uninstalling the app and different cables, nothing works.
However I could upgrade the firmware using the DJI Assistant 2 for Mavic, but it did not make any difference.
Really frustrating...

It sounds like the two of you could have faulty USB-C ports on the controller.  Try using the plugging the USC-C port by the antenna into a computer and see what happens.  That might at least give you an idea if the port itself is defective.

I remember some user with similar problems....
They had success with just turning the USB-c cable 180°......sounds stupid but maybe give it a try...... best luck

I am afraid that's the case, when I plug the top port (RC link) to a computer nothing happens.
The bottom port is recognized as the remote, everything fine there.

I was actually desperate enough to try that, but no luck

Typically on a computer depending on the Operating System you may be able to see if a current is passing through or the port is registering a connection.

I checked in the store where I bought it and it has been confirmed that RC usb-c port was the source of the problem. I was given different RC as replacement and it works fine.

Thanks for your help on the forum and thanks for the help at local dji store in Poland: gohero.pl

The only fix for that is to change the broken RC at your dealer as far as I know.
Hope there won't be any problem with that.
