DJI RC Plus 2 Controller Revealed with Major Design Overhaul and O4 Transmission

DJI’s professional controller lineup is getting a significant upgrade with the new DJI RC Plus 2, featuring enhanced transmission capabilities and comprehensive design improvements, as reported by dronenr on X.

The DJI RC Plus 2 was launch together with the D-RTK3 and O4 Image Transmission Relay. So far, the launch of these new DJI products appears to have been restricted to China only.

DJI RC Plus 2 Physical Design Changes

The DJI RC Plus 2 is expected to support DJI O4 Enterprise image transmission, as revealed in a translated excerpt from DJI China’s agricultural website. This website was unveiled alongside the Agras T100 and T70.

The RC Plus 2 introduces several noteworthy hardware improvements:

Redesigned antenna system that appears to be non-removable
Refined and reshaped shoulder buttons for improved ergonomics
Enhanced durability with larger rubber bumpers on the top corners
Updated speaker vent configuration
Relocated ports with improved protection
Retained 7-inch display and familiar button layout

If the O4 image transmission signal is disrupted, and the mobile network is functioning properly, the device will automatically switch to the mobile network to effortlessly handle challenging situations like mountain obstructions. However, if the O4 image transmission signal is interfered with, and there’s no mobile network signal, a relay module can be installed to ensure seamless operation.
