The controller features expanded storage capacity and O3+ video transmission technology, while its control sticks enable more precise in-flight manoeuvres;
Firmware update also adds some improvements to the controller and fixes some minor bugs.
The DJI RC Pro controller is now compatible with the DJI Air 2S drone, following a recent firmware update.
The next-generation smart controller, released as part of the Mavic 3 launch in November, is engineered for quality aerial content creation.
It features a latest-generation processor, expanded storage capacity, the powerful O3+ video transmission technology, and adopts the same control stick design of the DJI FPV for more precise manoeuvres.
The controller was originally compatible with just the Mavic 3 Cine and Mavic 3 (find out the differences in our Mavic 3 Cine vs Mavic 3 comparison blog), but the new firmware update (v03.01.0500) means it can now be used with the Air 2S.
The firmware upgrade also adds some improvements to the RC Pro controller itself, such as added support to output clean HDMI footage.
