Dji inspire 1 Dji app and iPhone 16 pro max

dmackerson · Nov 18, 2024

Does anyone know if you can use an iPhone 16 pro max with the inspire 1 drone and Dji go app. I’ve tried a cabled connection with usb-c to usb-a and a micro-usb to usb-c . My phone seems to reconize it as a power source. Is this worth any more effort or should I just get a device that will work. I got the drone for free from a family member so I don’t really have anything in it yet. But seems like it’s still worth flying. The batteries are good too. Any help is appreciated thanks !

If I recall, I CAN use a Gen 3 iPad 12.9" with my Inspire using a legacy version of the Go App. The Gen 3 has a Thunderbolt interface. So I don't think it's the hardware. If I recall, it's running iOS 12. So the issue may be with your iOS version.

Anyone has success with iOS 15.8 working . My app won’t reconize my remote on my iPad mini 4 . Should be compatible. Starting to think my radio might be bad. Can’t even get the radio to bind with the inspire 1 through manual binding. Any ideas ?

It must be a bad usb board. That’s all I can think of. Got one eBay we will see.

Yes. iOS 17.6.1 on a Gen 3 iPad (Thunderbolt™ interface). I'm successfully running a legacy version of the Go App, v3.1.1.

Yeah, it has to be that, make sure you use a genuine cable.

If you mean a genuine Apple cable, I have found that good, brand-name, third-party Lighting™ cables work better than the Apple offerings. Hard to imagine that the most expensive cables, which are the Apple cables, have such a high failure rate. I've had a bunch of them fail. IMHO, they're junk.

By the way I have just purchased a 1ft short Anker cable from amazon, it should fit perfectly without leaving spare cable from remote to phone

It was a bad remote. Got a new one and it’s working on all my devices.

Thanks for sharing, I had the weak image message nearly all time recently. I sprayed with contact cleaner the 2 gray mounting cables that go to gimbal. Perfect now.
