Learn how to replace the DJI RC 2 joystick modules and fix common control stick problems including joystick drift, dead zones, incorrect centering, uneven movement, stiff controls, and calibration issues.
This step-by-step DJI RC 2 repair guide shows how to open the remote controller, disconnect the internal batteries, remove the left and right joystick modules, install replacement modules, reassemble the controller, and perform a complete DJI RC 2 joystick calibration in DJI Fly.
The left and right joystick modules are different, so make sure you order and install the correct replacement for each side.
After replacement, I’ll show you how to access RC Calibration through DJI Fly and correctly calibrate both control sticks and control dials. The aircraft does not need to be connected during calibration and should remain powered off.
