    I would like to say one thing that’s so positive about the RC Pro controller is the precise stick control the unit has. My videos are much much better now because how the sticks controls the Mavic 3 and the Air 2 S. SMOOTH Controled Movements. That alone is worth the price. One more thing I want to touch on “the controls” how smooth the gimbal operates, the zoom and the gimbals working in conjunction with each other, Smooth. I am sold to the smoothness of every aspect of the unit.

    Great video. Could you do a better overview of all the buttons and customization options and how it's helped you make better content with the drone or streamlined the experience of using the drone in flight?
    As an android user with a decently bright screen I'm more interested if the convenience of the extra buttons and customizability outweighs the benefits of something like the Tripltek 8 Pro which has a lot more real-estate, a brighter screen and can be used with any drone that uses an external display.
    Biggest question I have is: can you adjust your exposure without actually tapping around on the screen (aperture + shutter + ISO) using the 5D button for example. Also interested in how the separate video and photo triggers work. The manual is less than helpful.

    I just ordered mine today for my Air 2s. Thankyou for your valuable time on reviewing this and comparing. the convenience of not having to hook up a phone or tablet before flight is the best part for me along with the super bright screen. Yes it cost as much as the Air 2S Flymore combo. Yes its also future proof for when I upgrade my drone or add a higher end DJI drone

    Thanks for this video. I appreciate your straightforward approach and your videos don’t feel like hyped-up click bait.
    Regarding the RC Pro - this was a bit of a tough one for me. I recently got a Mavic 3 and was using the stock controller with an older iPad Air 9.7” with a shroud. I love the screen size of the iPad and the shroud helps with the sun, but it’s a messy and heavy assembly, and pretty indiscreet. And as an older iPad, the battery was draining fast. Too much distraction and complexity.
    So I got the RC Pro. I absolutely agree with your points on convenience, and the screen brightness. It’s so much better. Haven’t tested for range but that was also an attraction. The dedicated extra buttons and scroll wheel are also key advantages. I miss the larger iPad screen and I’m not crazy about Android in general, but it works fine. Only issue is first one I bought had a broken control stick, and had to replace the unit. :-/
    I’m hoping this will be compatible with the new Mini 3. That would really be my ideal setup having this controller and those two drones.

    I bought the RC pro about a month ago and I can say that it was worth it. I live in Puerto Rico and there is a lot of mountains and vegetation here. With the regular controller I was having some issues at some locations. I was loosing signal and the only way around was to elevate the drone until the signal was back. Since I got the RC pro, I haven’t had any issues or lost signal again.

    Most reviews are focused upon brightness or how far away they can fly compared to RCN1. Staying connected in closer proximity when there are obstacles or RF interference are reasons I might choose to purchase. I am convinced it is better RF Can you comment on the feel of sticks and ability to control Mavic 3 precisely with the sticks? Is it negligible difference, huge difference? I swear I can control Mavic 2 better via RC1A/B than Mavic 3 via RC1N and wonder if that is due to more flight time or difference in remote sticks.

I use mine for taking long distance shots using the explorer mode & have it plugged into my 4k big TV via the mini hdmi clean screen output, fantastic looking at big buildings over 35 miles away on the big screen with lots of hovering time up above.

    Thanks for the video. I believe that DJI is way overcharging for this. But they have not left much of an option and since there is very little competition out there their prices keep going up. I have been an avid user of DJI starting with getting my first drone with them being the Phantom 2. I always defended them at bringing drones down to a consumer level where everyone could enjoy them and use them for work etc. I am sad to see them going in the opposite direction now. I have to purchase this for our non profit to be able to get what we need but this went way out of our budget and will most likely be the last DJI drone we purchase. It kills me but the prices are becoming unatainable again which kept consumers out of the drone world like 10 years ago. Good vid though and thanks again

    Very nice evaluation! I'm considering upgrading from the standard Mavic 3 remote to the RC Pro as i'm missing some buttons (C1, C2 and 5D button) on the standard remote, that used to be present on a standard Mavic 2 remote. I have a question about the file storage. Since you can place a micro SD card, is it possible to download full size RAW files and 4k video onto the SD card as a backup? This would be great on trips to have a backup of the footage, in case of crashing the drone!
    Additionally, would it also be possible to back up pictures when plugging in a camera in the USB-C port to the micro SD card? This would give it a double functions as a sort of Gnarbox, would be useful!
    Curious to hear from you, cheers!

    • @DMProductions
      @DMProductions  Pƙed 2 lety +1

      So the sd card saves the screen recordings and you can also download the cached file direct to the sd card on the fly app built in. I don’t believe there is a way to directly save it live to the sd card but you can do after you have taken the shot

      @@DMProductions Alright thanks for clarifying! So as long as you can store the full res files on the RC PRO's SD card after the flight that would be great. So you can always make a full back-up after each flight. Something I was always weary of before, when you crash your drone you lose all your footage from the whole trip.
