DJI GL300A Remote Controller

DJI’s Phantom 3 Series remote-controller release notes explicitly name GL300A and say that firmware applies to Phantom 3 Advanced and Professional. DJI’s Advanced manual lists a 6000 mAh 2S phone-linked controller with USB output and up to 5 km FCC or 3.5 km CE unobstructed radio tests. The manual’s family specification and the GL300A firmware note are separate sources; they do not prove every P3 Advanced/Professional unit uses GL300A or that other GL300 revisions are interchangeable.

Compatibility Notes

The GL300A model is named in DJI firmware notes for Phantom 3 Advanced/Professional. Confirm the physical code, DJI GO firmware and exact aircraft before pairing.

Inspection Checklist

Model identity

Read the exact printed controller model code and match the aircraft generation before pairing.

Controls and ports

Check stick centering, mode switch, gimbal dial, physical output ports and mobile/display path.

Battery and radio

Check charging, antenna integrity and a safe short-range link with compatible current firmware.

Common Failure Modes

Wrong controller generation

Similar housing does not prove compatibility; compare the model code and DJI transmission generation.

Control or display fault

Damaged sticks, output ports, display, antenna, battery or stale firmware can interrupt the link.

Repair Notes

  • Confirm exact aircraft/controller labels and firmware before diagnosis.
  • Retest stick calibration, output path and a controlled short-range link after any repair.

Pre-Owned Buying Checks

  • Verify the printed model code and correct aircraft generation.
  • Inspect sticks, outputs, display/phone mount, antennas, battery and charging.
  • Confirm pairing and no current stock claim from the Wiki profile alone.
