Great video, you're one of the few I've found that mentions third part software, this can be a game changer. I have a Mini SE and flew exclusively on Litchi. I've upgraded to the Mini 3 and would like to use Litchi on this drone, the Litchi pilot software is in its early stages. So the RC N-1 is a no brainer for me. I have to say that it took me a long time to find the information that the DJI RC does not accept third party app. Well don Sir.

10 months later this comparison is still the best video out there. I have my 3 pro with RC-N1 and totally feel all the hassle, but for the price it is unbeatable. Also, one more issue is the DJI RC is going to be replaced by the RC 2 soon, I dont think I will vote for it now.

@marvenscantave4023 3 месяца назад

@DungarooTV 2 месяца назад

I would say the RC-N1 controller if we were to talk about overall build quality and just look, feel and practical use - is the best overall controller to come from DJI to date. I have all 3 and although I can pair my Mini 4 Pro with the RC-Pro, I choose to leave it separate with the RC-N1.

@Vamo_Alla Месяц назад

Thank for the video! I have a question, what about if someone call while using the rc n1 with a phone? Would that interrupt the flight? In which mode should the phone be before using it with the drone? Thanks again!

@AldiBilahdin Месяц назад

Nice info 👍, btw much worth it DJI Mini 2 SE or DJI Mini 3 bro?

@trailblazer_nomad 3 месяца назад

What about screen brightness? Can you customise it? In very bright weather conditions you can adjust brightness on your phone so you can see better? Can you do this on the controller?

@KikiDaily09 Год назад

i owned both of these. i have to say the main thing i like the RC because of the weight balance. it's not top heavy as the rc-n1 when your phone mounted. the lightweight of the rc makes it better experience.. The big cons on the rc is the screen recording only can do 720p. the rc-n1 well depend on your smartphone to do screen recording..

@flyingfilmmaker Год назад

100% agree! The RC is much better balanced. And good point about the low res screen recording on the RC. 👍

@K1LLA_KING_KONG 5 месяцев назад

Can you explain why would one screen record? As opposed to just record to the drone?

@sparcousa 4 месяца назад

@jugibur2117 3 месяца назад

Thanks for the detailed comparison! I wonder why DJI made the RC N1 so big compared to my old Mavic Pro. It's a shame considering how small the DJI Mini is and you want to save space in your bag.

@Rick11922 6 месяцев назад

Did you finally get the RC? How is it in comparison to RC-N1 with Air2s?

@logoimagery4266 6 месяцев назад

⁠@@Rick11922Yes, i did buy it! I really enjoy it! I think the only thing I have found that is a small con is that the connection may be just a slight weaker at times compared to the RCN1. But not enough to make a difference. I love that I don’t have to use my phone now. I highly recommend getting it especially if you fly quite frequently. Id give it a 9.5/10!

@Rick11922 6 месяцев назад

@@logoimagery4266 thank you, I think I'll buy it 😉

@christophersmith-zn2kn 5 месяцев назад

I bought the mini 2 se which came with standard controller the RC n1. My problem I got is that in the settings I have the offline maps option so I can download maps to use when I haven't got WiFi or data connection. So I've downloaded some maps to use, but when I get to where there is no WiFi or data connection, set up the drone ready to fly I get a message on screen that says connect to data and GPS and won't allow me into the fly app to allow me to fly. Any body have any solutions that could help.

@sscross7158 2 месяца назад

COOL!.... It *just now* occurred to me to wonder _"can I use a _*_tablet_*_ with a regular controller instead of a phone?"_ [I'm just now getting around to starting with drones].... and DUDE! You answered it for me right before I was about to Google it.

@flyingfilmmaker 2 месяца назад

@a86hero 11 месяцев назад

RC n1 for me as i can choose my phone --> better screen and get apps and wifi. I can just have a dedicated phone

@UpTheAnte1987 3 месяца назад

I've got an RC-N1 at the moment but seriously thinking about getting an RC just to eliminate the constant hassle of having to connect my phone. The one thing that puts me off is it looks your hands block part of the screen with the it being below the thumb sticks. Is that a problem?

@plasticdope 2 месяца назад

I dont think it is a big problem, you may indeed cover like 10% of the screen sometimes. My deal breaker is the future proof, because the RC is not compatible with newer drones anymore (same as the N1) but the price is more expensive.

@fabioluizgalerani9503 6 месяцев назад

Really nice review! How about the RC wire connections? Since I´m used to fly wearing drone mask, I´m trying to understand if is possible to connect my phone to RC and use it inside of drone mask, like a mirror screen. Otherwise, I will keep using the RC-N1. Thanks

@flyingfilmmaker 6 месяцев назад

With my RC2 (for the Air 3 and Mini 4 Pro) I've just connected a 5 inch HDMI monitor with a USBC to HDMI adapter and then put the monitor in my Drone Mask goggles. I don't think that the original DJI RC supports HDMI out of the USB port though.

@fabioluizgalerani9503 6 месяцев назад

@@flyingfilmmaker interesting, using this adapter will the monitor require power? Or this connection will provide the power and image signal on the same connection? What is the brand/model monitor you are using? I'm now considering mini 4 within rc2. Thanks

@flyingfilmmaker 6 месяцев назад

@@fabioluizgalerani9503 This is the one I use but there are a lot of similar ones out there. amzn.to/3TOc61U The adapter just lets you output HDMI from the controller, and I just power the monitor with the included battery, or it can be powered via USB. I already had the monitor though, so if you'll have to buy that separately, it might a lot simpler to just feed HDMI into HDMI goggles with built in screens like this one, which costs about the same as a HDMI monitor. amzn.to/41IDD6A

@@flyingfilmmaker Thanks a lot. :-) I will check these options before decide.

@441greenleaf 2 месяца назад

does it compatible with mavic air 2 ? someone said, with a latest update now air 2 can use the RC

@441greenleaf 2 месяца назад

i have onlu 1 reason to switch to RC , if itsnt compatibly with mavic air 2, i will even upgrade my drone for that controller. its because when i am offroading with my truck, i have my phone and drone on the passanger seat, and you can only imagine how struggling its to unplug my phone from car charger, put it on rc n1, plug it, and then fly the drone when i see some interesting landscape :D

@Jasontyo Месяц назад

I feel like the availability of inexpensive super bright android phones gives the N1 the advantage, that screen on the RC is small, dim, and it apparently has reduced range? I use a dedicated old android phone for the drone, not my actual device, its a game changer.

@tonycorr1993 Месяц назад

You didn't mention compatibility problems. Many android users have issues with apps not working. My Samsung A53 for instance .I phones seem fine

@eitanfine5185 11 месяцев назад

How does it update the maps if it disconnects from the Wifi when flying

@flyingfilmmaker 11 месяцев назад

You have to download maps ahead of time. I don't really use maps though.

@annalee5751 7 месяцев назад

Watched a few vids on the RC, but no one seems to talk about bluetooth the pics to the phone for a text rather than a mini SD to a card reader into the phone. I routinely take pics for customers using RTH so the pics are sent off before the drone even lands. The phone photoshops out defects/my work truck/whatever. Then my phone # & Thanks embedded in the bottom corner. They are impressed and I get referrals. 😎 N-1 wins.

The smart controller is only good in the first 3-4 years, after that DJI will not be supporting it again like what happened to my Mavic Air 2S. Regretted had choosen the smart controller as now it has become useless, no apps could work anymore.. I had to repurchase the basic controller...
