Guide Steps Description

1. Watching the Tutorial Videos

•  Scan the QR code to watch tutorial videos and other videos 

before using for the first time.

2. Charging

•  The internal battery is placed in hibernation mode before 

delivery. It must be charged before using for the first time. 

The battery level LEDs start to flash to indicate that the 
internal battery is activated. 

•  It is recommended to use a locally certified USB-C charger 

at a maximum rated power of 65W and maximum voltage of 
20V such as the DJI 65W Portable Charger.

•  Charge the remote controller immediately if the power 

level reaches 0%. Otherwise, the remote controller may be 
damaged due to being over discharged for an extended 
period. Discharge the remote controller to between 40% and 
60% if stored for an extended period.

•  Fully discharge and charge the remote controller every three 

months. The battery depletes when stored for an extended 
period.

3. Checking the Battery and Powering On/Off

•  Make sure to power off the aircraft before the remote 

controller.

4.  Activating and Linking the Remote Controller

•  The remote controller needs to be activated before using for 

the first time. An internet connection is required for activation. 

Follow the prompts to activate. Contact DJI Support if 
activation fails several times.

•  Make sure the remote controller is linked to the aircraft. Link 

the remote controller and the aircraft when required such as 
using another aircraft.

5. Preparing the Remote Controller

•  Lift and adjust the antennas to make sure that the aircraft is 

in the optimal transmission range.

•  DO NOT push the antennas beyond their limit. Otherwise, 

they may be damaged. Contact DJI Support to repair 
or replace the antennas if they are damaged. Damaged 
antennas greatly decrease performance.

6. Flight

•  Fully charge the remote controller before each flight.

•  There will be an alert if the remote controller is not used for 

five minutes while it is powered on but the touchscreen is 

off and it is not connected to the aircraft. It will automatically 

power off after a further 30 seconds. Move the control sticks 

or perform any other remote controller action to cancel the 
alert.

•  For optimal communication and positioning performance, 

DO NOT block or cover the remote controller internal RC 
antennas and internal GNSS antenna.

•  DO NOT cover the air vent or the air intake on the remote 

controller. Otherwise, the performance of the remote 

controller may be affected due to overheating.

•  The motors can only be stopped mid-flight when the flight 

controller detects a critical error. Fly the aircraft with caution 
to ensure the safety of yourself and those around you.

•  Refer to the user manual of the aircraft for more information 

about aircraft controls and operations.

Stay alert when using the DJI RC Plus to control an 
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). Carelessness may result in 
serious harm to yourself and others. Download and read the 
user manuals for the aircraft and remote controller before 

using for the first time.
