No, it's different. The controllers between Mavic (Ocu-Sync) and
P4P (Enhanced Lightbridge) are not compatible. However, both use 2.4 and 5.8Ghz in a similar form of Lightbridge technology. It's interesting that Lightbridge has been splintered into 5 different types that are incompatible with each other. It appears DJI has competing engineering departments that have not edict to provide compatibility.
Lightbridge 1 = Inspire 1, Phantom 3, Phantom 4
Lightbridge 2 = High end Matrice M600, M200 and custom apps (1080P with 50ms latency, released Oct 2015)
Lightbridge 2.1 (this is my name since DJI doesn't give a name) =
P4P,
P4P+
Lightbridge 2.2 =
Inspire 2 (Supports 2 simultaneous video feeds, 1 camera that points forward, 1 from the 360 rotating gimbal camera)
Ocu-Sync = Mavic
At CES in January DJI demonstrated the Mavic's ability to wirelessly connect to another video receiver (RoboMaster), which physically connected via HDMI to display LIVE 1080P drone video on a big TV screen, simultaneously while it was feeding the same video LIVE to the Mavic controller/display like normal. Ocu-Sync allows multiple receivers for video, unlike WiFi technology that is point to point (due to TCP/IP protocol). WiFi cannot connect to multiple receivers. DJI said the
P4P and Inspire cannot do that, for whatever reason, because it's not Ocu-Sync. To display live drone video on a TV with
P4P or Inspire you must use the HDMI output on the RC, and controller must be physically attached to the TV by an HDMI cable. I'm sure this wireless multiple point connection will be the secret sauce to DJI's upcoming
wireless GOGGLES for the Mavic, which are due to be released any time, most likely at NAB, LasVegas in April. The only way to use goggles with
P4P or Inspire is through a PHYSICAL HDMI wire connection to the RC.
I've asked DJI about the RoboMaster receiver, but they act ignorant about it. This brand is connected to a robotics website that
DJI apparently sponsors in
China. When I ask DJI where to buy this receiver, they say they have no knowledge of it. I'm hoping at some point DJI sells that wireless receiver, as this would bring a lot more value to my Mavic.
