Autel warns that third-party chargers may damage the controller battery. Use the official charger provided by Autel Robotics.[2]
Follow these steps
Connect the controller
Connect the official remote-controller charger output to the controller USB-C port with a USB-C-to-USB-A or USB-C-to-USB-C data cable. Plug the charger into 100–240 V AC, 50/60 Hz.[1]
Disconnect when charging is complete
Disconnect the controller promptly after charging. Autel recommends fully charging it before flight. The manual gives about 120 minutes as a general aircraft battery charging time, not a controller charging duration, so this answer does not assign that time to the controller.[2]
