sound an alert. After six minutes, it will automatically power off. Move the sticks or
perform some other action to cancel the alert.
3. Ensure the antennas are unfolded and adjusted to the proper position to achieve the
optimal transmission quality.
4. Contact DJI support to repair or replace the antennas if they are damaged. Damaged
antennas will greatly decrease performance.
5. Link the Smart Controller and the aircraft again if you change the aircraft.
6. Ensure to power off the aircraft before the Smart Controller.
7. Fully charge the Smart Controller every three months.
8. Immediately charge the Smart Controller when its power level decreases to 0% to
prevent the Smart Controller from damage due to over discharge for an extended
period. Discharge the Smart Controller to a power level between 40% and 60% if
stored for an extended period.
9. DO NOT cover the air vent or the air intake on the Smart Controller. Otherwise, the
Smart Controller may become too hot, which could affect its performance.
10. DO NOT disassemble the Smart Controller without the assistance of a DJI authorized
dealer. Always contact DJI or a DJI authorized dealer to replace the Smart Controller’s
components.

①Please refer to the Specications for details on supported aircraft.
②The Smart Controller can reach its maximum transmission distance (FCC) in a wide open area with
no electromagnetic interference using a MAVICTM 2 at an altitude of about 100 meters.
③The maximum working time was tested in a lab environment and is for reference only.
④A pair of sticks are stocked in the Sticks Storage Slot before delivery. In the illustrations used in the
overview section, the sticks have already been mounted on the Smart Controller.
1. Battery Level and Charging
Press the power button once to check

2. Preparing the Smart Controller
The optimal transmission range is shown above. Ensure the antennas are facing
towards the aircraft. When the angle between the antennas and the back of the Smart
Controller is 80° or 180°, the connection between the Smart Controller and the aircraft
can reach its optimal performance.
The illustrations above show situations where the operator and aircraft are far away.
Lift the antennas Remove the sticks Rotate to attach the sticks
•Ensure the control sticks are rmly mounted.
•In real operation, the DJI GOTM 4 app will prompt to warn that the transmission
signal is weak, and please adjust the antennas to ensure that the aircraft is back
to the optimal transmission range.

Controller and the aircraft after successful activation.
1. Power on the Smart Controller and the aircraft.
2. Press down the customizable buttons C1, C2, and the record button simultaneously.
The status LED will blink blue and the Smart Controller will sound a double beep to
indicate that linking starts.
3. Press the aircraft’s linking button and then release. The Smart Controller’s status
LED will be solid green if linking is successful.
