DJI has unveiled a variety of gadgets in the past year. The latest releases include the Neo 2 drone, the Osmo Action 6 camera, and the Osmo Mobile 8 smartphone stabiliser, which is currently priced at $149 on Amazon. Yet, there are also some rumored products that were never released, even though there was significant evidence showing they were well developed.

Missing Devices

One notable example is the RC Track, designed as an accessory for the Air 3S drone. The FCC ended up disclosing numerous photos of the device and even a user manual, but the RC Track vanished without explanation. Now, a similar device has surfaced with the release of DJI’s T55, T70S, and T100S agricultural drones in China.

New Features

DJI refers to the new accessory as the ‘RC Mini AG’. This device features a 1.97-inch display and is intended to be a compact alternative to the larger remote controls, making it easier to fly a drone, even in urgent situations. The little screen has a resolution of 410 x 494 pixels and can reach peak brightness of 800 nits, according to DJI.

The video below shows the small controller, which includes two joysticks for piloting a DJI drone. DJI claims that the RC Mini AG can operate for up to 3 hours on a single charge. Additionally, this remote control accessory is compatible with OcuSync 4 technology, which allows for video transmission up to 10 km. However, it is still unclear if DJI will make the RC Mini AG available internationally or if it will accompany any future consumer drones.
