After seeing a couple of videos showing stutter issues with the Air 2S on the smart controller I became concerned that the DJI Mavic Air 2 might be suffering the same issues. Sure enough, I too the drone up and had bad experiences while trying to fly my Air 2. I cleaned up the SC storage, removed all my files and even tried a Extreme Pro Mini SD card to help resolve the issue, all to no avail. Since I had good experiences before the latest update I can only conclude the updated is the issue. I will be rolling back the SC firmware until a new update is available. UPDATE Thanks to a kind viewer I have been able to get my regular controller to work. (short press followed by a longer press). It had been so long since I used it I had forgotten the 'special' sequence. SC doesn't require that.
