I am a complete beginner in drones, but after I had bought the Phantom 4 I made a real effort by listening and trying to understand tutorials, but I am completely stuck.
My problem ist that the remote controller does *not* connect to the aircraft and the most frustrating thing is that in the otherwise well done and complete tutorial (Tutorials - DJI Global Citizenship) the speaker doesn't mention at all how to do this.
He just describes how
- one switches on the controler, the aircraft and how one connects to the display (in my case a mini iPad)
- shows how to make the motors turn by moving the controls
But omits the most basic part of doing the connection (when I do what he shows the motors do *not* spin)
I then found that one has to go into the DJI GO app and press "Linking Remote Controller" which unfortunately did not help.
In the end I found some more details on
DJI Mobile SDK FAQ - DJI Mobile SDK Documentation
where they even show which button to press for phantom 4 to activate the link.
But all I found instead of the clearly indicated "Link button" was a control LED.
The design for phantom 4 of the critical area was even shown magnified, but there is no button....
Has anybody an idea of what is going on? It seems that people manage to make the remote controller connect to the aircraft.
