i have tried , able access control inside of flipview datatemplate described. try below approach , let me know if helps.

public static ienumerable<t> recursechildren<t>(dependencyobject root) t : uielement {     if (root t)     {         yield return root t;     }      if (root != null)     {         var count = visualtreehelper.getchildrencount(root);           (var idx = 0; idx < count; idx++)         {             foreach (var child in recursechildren<t>(visualtreehelper.getchild(root, idx)))             {                 yield return child;             }         }     } } 

accessing image control:

var imagecontrol = recursechildren<image>(rootvisual).firstordefault();
