DJI FPV Controller setup

[Angelini]

Is it possible to connect the DJI FPV new controller from the FPV Combo, to a MacBook Pro and use it with this game?
Any ideas about the setup?

Hi there!

While I dont own one myself, we have had several users report the DJI FPV controller as the only controller from DJI that will work with the DRL Sim. DJI Has proprietary hardware that they dont want to share much. With that said, I cant say with certainty that the controller will work with Mac, but I believe it will. What you can do is, head to this website with your controller plugged into your Mac. https://gamepad-tester.com/ There you can test the controller. If its working there, then itll work in the sim!

If you have any issues, let me know! Happy to help!

Hi there! Thanks a lot, really appreciate you taking the time. So I got it to work, from the download center, I downloaded the DJI Assistant 2. Disable both drivers on Device Manager (HS-Data Channel and MA Channel). Just need to follow the calibration process for the remote inside the game and that's it. Works for Windows 10 and MacBook Pro.

The DJI FPV controller works out of the box and you don't need to play with any drivers. All you need to do is to make sure you update your controller firmware. The firmware it ship with does not work, but once you update the firmware you just plug it in and it is recognized. Now, if someone models the DJI FPV drone in game that would be awesome.

Couldnt get it to work with my dji fpv controller, sadly had to refund the game.

I had success using the DJI FPV controller with DRL on my Mac as soon as I connected it to a USB HUB (actually on the USB port of my keyboard) and you also need to power on the controller with the usual short-long double press on the power button

I'm sorry to hear that... The controller does work with the sim. Some have reported needing to install the DJI app on their machine first. Some have had update firmware on the controller, some needed to ensure the cable was working properly, use different ports... however everyone so far with that radio has been able to get it working.

Can you confirm if your controller was even working with your system (joy.cpl from windows search) and this site? https://gamepad-tester.com/

Let me know if I or anyone else can help you!

Thanks

Hi guys,

any other comments?

Trying with DLR and Liftoff - Throttle stick up error during calibration or issue with centering the sticks..

- DJI assistant for FPV installed and it's showing the controller - firmware up to date.
- Cable USB-C to USB (charging and data transfer)
- Windows 11
- On laptop showing as C5.. but NOT working with ystem (joy.cpl from windows search)..

WHAT TO DO?! :/

DJI controllers are not allowed to be used with other programs, except the DJI FPV controllers.

However, you must first connect your controller to the DJI app before you can use it in other programs.

Once you have done this, its simply plug in, calibrate in game, and thats it.

You will need to ensure that the controller is working with Windows, before you can test with the Sim or any other program.

To do this, turn on and plug in your controller, then head to the windows game controller window by typing JOY.CPL in a windows search and hitting ENTER.

This will open the Controller box. If the controller is working with Windows, it will appear in that box, and when clicked on it, and then the properties button, the controller will function properly in the Properties screen.

If it is NOT working in that screen properly, the sim will not work with the controller. Which you will need to solve for the connection and communication issue with windows.

The only option that we are aware of, is connecting the controller to the DJI and updating.

I hope this helps you and the others.

Let me know, and if you all have issues, please use the Help Ticket system as thats the best way for us to help users with issues.

Thanks!
