My first experience with manual mode was on this app with the touchscreen. I’m relieved to hear that it’s awful cuz I’ve been practicing for a few days and was getting discouraged.
I have been losing my shiz the past few hours. I can do pretty well now, but holy hell, some of these stunts and the control of the drone is infuriating to say the least! Glad I am not the only one either!
thank you for this video. is there a solution that does not involve the goggles, that allows me to connect the controller directly to an iPad or iPhone?
I've been flying Quads for years mostly in a Normal or a Sport mode so I have a good understanding of how the sticks operate. I've owned my DJI FPV for several years and Love Sport mode especially with the Motion Controller. Can zip along through trees and past other obstacles getting great footage and testing my skills. I tried the Virtual Sim and had ZERO luck with using it in Manual. Didn't crash really but found myself flying backwards a few times when I was still pushing the right stick forward. I think the Sim is junk. Thanks for your videos Billy. You're one of the best I've seen.
The idea of a flight sim for FPV quads is so you understand the basic controls (throttle yaw & pitch). Skipping the sim step is like getting into a 500HP manual car without any driving experience at all. You will just crash it fast and hard, even with all the driver/flight aids. So always practice on the sim before you fly any type of FPV. I don’t want this hobby getting banned because someone flies into a google building on their first flight 😂
Is there any chance to enable the additional tracks like in the garage. I have for example 6 stars and need 2 for that track ... nevertheless nothing happens. Same for other tracks.
Actually, the stars are shown as "*still* needed" - a misunderstanding was the issue. Getting familar with acro helps then to reach the target ;-) After that it is absolutely doable to reach all (5) stars ... in the 1st track it was for me in 17secs.
My wife bought the Mavic Mini 3 and she can fly it "ok" but has a long way to go before that muscle memory kicks in. We haven't had a chance to use it more than in a giant open field. I'd really like her to get some simulator time in to help build muscle memory, spatial awareness and confidence. Would you happen to know of an adequate SIM out there that's not just for FPV?
Has anyone been able to use the sim only with the remote? Not connecting the goggles? I dont have the setup yet but that is somewhat of a dealbreaker to me as I would like to leave the goggle home.
Just got my drone and ready to try the virtual flight app only to find out it doesn't exist for Android phone users. C'mon DJI, can we get an android app already?
Thanks for the great video. Has DJI made any progress and/or comments on making an M1 Apple Silicon Mac app? Also, have they committed to adding simulators for DJI Mini 3? And, lastly, can you pair with the DJI Controller from the Mini 3 Pro [the RC one with screen]. I have had 3 drones [Mavic, Spark and now Mini 3] but am too afraid to learn and experiment in the REAL world. I'd love to experiment on my Mac [but iPhone /iPad] could work too. But I'm not interested so much in FPV as I am in DJI Mini 3 flying. What are your words of wisdom and what is DJI telling you about Mini 3 simulation and using Mini 3 RC remote etc? Thanks for any info. - Eric ZORK Alan & Sweetie [ Professional Poets & Bed Vloggers ]
Ordered an aftermarket PS4 controller. It works as well. The only issue is that the centering of the left stick makes you constantly gain altitude. I advise getting those thumbstick extenders though.
Great video! I seem to have trouble in that resuming a practice run after turning it off makes it so I have to start from scratch; is there a resume button?
I have a request, do you have the same problem as I do with the dji virtual flight application, i.e. that the roll is on the left stick instead of the right one as during actual drone flights? can it be changed?
Spent about 1-2 hours in the sim. Gotta say the real flying is completely different. It’s really a challenge just to keep the horizon level in full manual mode. Thank God for the oh-ah$& button!! Hopefully the motion controller will eventually be able to go full manual. Much less to concentrate on and it’s so much more intuitive.
@@cal8016 this app is fucking trash. Am i the only one that think that? why do i keep floating up and away? i cannot go forward anywhere at all. its not even close to liftoff or anything real
I'm sorry, but I 100% have to disagree with that opening statement. Their user base is huge and ANDROID IS HUGE. this is straight up unacceptable not to release this for Android at the time of release to the market. WTF DJI!?!? According to cancel culture we have enough racism, sexism and other ism's already. Let's not add OSism to the list too.
Lol. It’s a private company dude, they can do what they want. Easier to work with one OS than 5 at the same time, in this case they picked iPhone, probably did some math and realized they get more money from the smaller iPhone base than the bigger android base...I’m still laughing at the logic here.
Having trouble connecting my controller to the goggles. Not getting the app to appear on my phone and I get a yellow message at the bottom saying “having issues connecting” anyone else experiencing this?
Is there any fpv drone simulator I can run on pc with an oculus and game controller. I would love to put in some practice before I commit to an fpv drone.
yes but how do I get activation code for the pc version?? :D I bought it from a store,not offical store and I just want to register my drone :D and I dont know how to do it
In the Virtual Simulation Time Trial I can't seem to get enough "Stars" to get out of Track One on to Track Two and Three. I've spent a few hours getting consistant low scores. I there a trick or is this a bug in the beta?
I followed your instructions using an iPad mini and I'm stuck on the language setting. It does not allow me to move on to the next step from the language setting.
Can I ask a question please Ive just splashed out and bought a dji fpv drone, Does it record.. Or can it record the sound of the drone on its videos? And... Does it have a follow you mode? Thankyou
Sensational, very well explained and detailed. I have a DJI Mini2 and I already have fun filming and photographing. But I will definitely put this new drone on my wish list. I saw your video on first flight impressions and unboxing. What else comes ahead of DJI ??
DJI missed an opportunity again cause we own android only and I guess a lot of us have it too. Time they find a support for the most popular OS ... instead of preferring apple ios in this case.
Great video! Do you know if there is a way to link the goggles V2 and the DJI controller 2 without the FPV drone? I had the goggles for another setup and bought the controller just to try the simulator but cannot seem to link the two without the DJI drone. Wish I had seen your video first, would have just gotten a bluetooth controller! LOL
So you recovered nicely from the other nights "pile on Billy" live stream! You're a good sport and one of the few that "got it" regarding this drone. Keep on trucking. Thanks for the GREAT VIDEOS! 73 Mike
so this works with iphone users??? omg my man u have got to help me set this up i need this in my life asap i didnt know rhat you could use the iphone with it, i just saw a windows download icon on the dji page... please help thanks btw i own the dji RE black goggles not the new digital ones and have the mavic 2 zoom not the mart remote.. can i still fly? please help im a stupido thanks man, -peter
dji will not be releasing it for android, because its not needed. You can connect your controller to the pc and play the real dji flight sim not the beta version for iphone. Remember the operating system for the dji drones is android, that is why everything works better and has more features on the android phones. The reason they choose android over the apple is because, less the 10% of people use apple products.
Just because you can ace flying here doesn't mean you can cut it in real life. Don't shred it when flying for real because that's gonna be a costly mistake. The DJI PFV is tough but it's not THAT tough.
I don’t think this I will replace your mavic mate. I just bought it in addition to my Mavic, and I’m a newbie to fpv but from what i understand so far you wont get the same shots and aerial photography with the fpv. Not saying which is better but just different. I personally think if you had only one drone to do photography you probably want the mavics while the fpv is more fun to play with
for the virtual flight app: anyone know how to delete all your flight records in the app, so I can start over and set new records in manual only? I set some time records in sport mode in the app, and I want to delete them so I can set new records solely in manual mode.
Lol,only if I (and many other people) can figure out it to connect. Setting is such painful experience. So much issues with connecting and compatibility,
Great video Billy. I think us old guys should def spend time in this Sim. Caugh caugh..🤬🤬. Anyways. Congrats on your 99,000 Thousand Subs. Omg... BUTTON IS ON ITS WAY!!!!💙💙💙🤟🤟🤟🤟🙏🙏👍🏻👍🏻 Mikey
Play station dual shock 4 controller works with the DJI virtual Flight.
Thanks man was looking for this
Are you able to use the goggles with the Play station dual shock 4 controller?
The sensitivity on manual mode is super high. Is there a way to lower it?
My first experience with manual mode was on this app with the touchscreen. I’m relieved to hear that it’s awful cuz I’ve been practicing for a few days and was getting discouraged.
It's very bad physics! It's garbage!
I have been losing my shiz the past few hours. I can do pretty well now, but holy hell, some of these stunts and the control of the drone is infuriating to say the least! Glad I am not the only one either!

Does a Nintendo switch controller work bc my ps4 controllers are broke but I’m rlly good on just phone touchscreen freestyle on manual

So always practice on the sim before you fly any type of FPV. I don’t want this hobby getting banned because someone flies into a google building on their first flight 😂
If you've never flown anything before flight sim will help greatly with muscle memory and help prevent crashing... great video!

How many hours do I have to put in before I can go full manual for someone with no experience in FPV?
I'd say like maybe 30 hours before you try irl
Billy, how do you go from one track to the second track when in "time trial" mode?
I think they should add compatibility with other DJI controllers like the air 2 or Mavic 2 controllers
Great video once again!! Can I use the mini 2 controller?
Or the mini one?
These are not fpv controllers the throttle automatically snaps to the middle. Would be horrible to fly with
My wife bought the Mavic Mini 3 and she can fly it "ok" but has a long way to go before that muscle memory kicks in. We haven't had a chance to use it more than in a giant open field.

Love your videos Billy!
Greetings from Switzerland.
Thank you!
Can we fly the dji fpv drone without using the goggles but can we fly using the smart phone to see and the dji controller to fly
Great graphics. They should put in rings like Superman 64! That should totally be a course here.
Billy, is the Flight simulator still available, and has it been updated to any newer drones? Also is there a video for the one built into the RC Pro?
Bill are there 3 modes in sport mode that differ on backing turns?
Yes
@@billykyle Thanks
Xbox 1(s) Only
can i connect my regular dji mavic air 2 controller to this app?
Is there any other way to play it...if you dont have a apple phone..all i have is the s21 ultra and ps5
Congats on 100k subs
I try to use it with a emax d8 + otg and all gimballs are messed up. Yaw does throttle, throttle yaw, roll does pitch and vica versa....
i only have dji remote controller 2, i want to play dji virtual flight on my iphone
the question is.. can it connect without googles?
didnt you have a video about the motion controller?
How can I get this third party remote control 1:38 where should I buy
Does it work for ipad?
Has anyone been able to use the sim only with the remote? Not connecting the goggles? I dont have the setup yet but that is somewhat of a dealbreaker to me as I would like to leave the goggle home.
I can’t seem to get the drone to lift off. It says push the two joysticks apart or inner together. Yet nothing works
I realy hope they release the Android App for Simulation in the next Days.
Yeah, definitely should of done more research before I dropped 2k. I need this app.
Just got my drone and ready to try the virtual flight app only to find out it doesn't exist for Android phone users. C'mon DJI, can we get an android app already?
Use Drone sim for PC. Much better than the iOS anyway. I have a video how to connect DJI FPV to DRL PC sim on my channel.
@@Deryck206 Velocidrone

Do you have a link to download the latest version of this app?
Can I use it witth DJI MINI 2 controls ?
Ordered an aftermarket PS4 controller. It works as well. The only issue is that the centering of the left stick makes you constantly gain altitude. I advise getting those thumbstick extenders though.
Finally there is a fpv drone app on iOS
Anything about the DJI Flight Simulator for Windows? I can't find any in depth info. The software doesn't see the smart controller.
Great video! I seem to have trouble in that resuming a practice run after turning it off makes it so I have to start from scratch; is there a resume button?
Hello, did they come a version for android? Robert
What phone types on android does virtual flight app work best
I have an Android. Thinking of going on Amazon to get a cheap IPhone, would a IPhone 6 or 8 work?
I have a request, do you have the same problem as I do with the dji virtual flight application, i.e. that the roll is on the left stick instead of the right one as during actual drone flights? can it be changed?
You can change it in Stick Mode, basically you want Mode 2 activated
@UCkCqbLlzWfq6sq3jgHZTLYw
Have I really won a drone?
Can we use that app with dji controller instead of using xbox controller 🎮...?
Thanks
Thanks. Now I know this app is worked with Xbox remote controller. Good job.
Finally, DJI makes a useful app for non-commercial drone player.
Can I use an ipad ? Which Ipads?
Can you redo the video with the modern version of the app?
Great review mate
Does the wheel on the remote simulate the gimbal up and down motion within the sim ??
Why does this thing keep keeping me out of manual mode
Odd to see that DJI still haven't made the flight simulator for anything but iOS
Spent about 1-2 hours in the sim. Gotta say the real flying is completely different. It’s really a challenge just to keep the horizon level in full manual mode. Thank God for the oh-ah$& button!! Hopefully the motion controller will eventually be able to go full manual. Much less to concentrate on and it’s so much more intuitive.
Yeah, true. It feels different.
Where the heck do I find the DJI virtual flight simulator?
Have searched everywhere but can not find it. Hehe!
Hope can we use mavic drone controller
I cannot get the googles and controller to connect to the simulator using a Samsung phone is this not possible???
My sensitivity on the app in M mode is crazzyyy high - if I use the goggle and controller, am I able to change that?
I have the same problem. It’s so much harder on this app than using other programs like liftoff.
@@cal8016 this app is fucking trash. Am i the only one that think that? why do i keep floating up and away? i cannot go forward anywhere at all. its not even close to liftoff or anything real
@@EmadRashidi dont even use it bro. Lol just use liftoff. It’s helped me out a lot already

Having trouble connecting my controller to the goggles. Not getting the app to appear on my phone and I get a yellow message at the bottom saying “having issues connecting” anyone else experiencing this?
I used the remote with the app, tried manual mode and I still do not have any positive control. it's too sensitive.
This app still not available for android?
There is DJI FPV sim for PC. I have a video about it on my channel. :)
If you have the fpv drone could you tell me if the simulator is realistic compared to real conditions?
This simulator is avalible on ipad ?
Is there any fpv drone simulator I can run on pc with an oculus and game controller. I would love to put in some practice before I commit to an fpv drone.
can I use my Mavic pro 2 remote?
Thank you very much, Bill, really enjoyed it. Do you know if the Tello Bluetooth remote controller will work with this DJI FPV Simulator App?
yes but how do I get activation code for the pc version?? :D I bought it from a store,not offical store and I just want to register my drone :D and I dont know how to do it
Does Anybody know if you can use for example the Mavic mini controller for the simulator?
Has to be blue tooth controller
Yo would the mavic mini 2 controller work ?
Is the Air 2/Mini2 RC compatible with the app?
Are there some Iphones that are not compatible with this App?
Not working on my iPad mini 4, any suggestions?
