Step 5: Testing the Connection

1. Move the control sticks: Gently move the control sticks on the controller. The Avata’s propellers should respond accordingly, indicating a successful connection.
2. Check the DJI Fly app: The app should display real-time data from the drone, including its battery level, signal strength, and flight modes.

Troubleshooting Common Binding Issues

Even with the best preparation, you might encounter some challenges during the binding process. Here are some common issues and solutions:

• No signal: Ensure both your drone and controller are fully charged. Check if the antennas are properly deployed on the controller and drone.
• Binding fails: If the binding process fails, restart both the drone and controller. Try the binding procedure again, ensuring you follow the on-screen instructions carefully.
• Connection drops: Interference from other electronic devices or strong electromagnetic fields can disrupt the signal. Move to a clear area with minimal interference.
