Hi Ian, got my Mini 3 Pro Yesterday mate and updated firmware. Weather was a bit bad for 1st flight yesterday. So adjusted the settings to these. Its a bit windy out but will have a quick test flight now 👍👍

[@tommystravels64]

Another great info vlog Ian! Clear and right to the point... no faffing about. Spot on mate! Thanks!

[@shsechas]

Thanks Ian! Out of all the videos I have watched about the new control settings on the M3P ( and they are all informative) I like your suggestions the best for how I fly.

[@IaninLondon]

Excellent 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@trschin]

This is perfect! I’ve only flown two short flights so far and was just wondering how to slow down the side to side jerkiness. Very helpful and timely too. Thanks

[@dalewiley9208]

Very, very nice. Thanks.

spot-on . Straight to the point and nice and clear instructions . 10/10 👍👍

[@angelstation516]

Thanks Ian. Enjoying the vids over here in Idaho. I like the non BS approach and straightforward info. Just bought a Mini 3 Pro bundle last week from Costco and my poor old Mini2 is sitting on my desk grumbling because I haven't taken it out all week. I shall apply those Mini 3 settings today. Cheers mate!

[@IaninLondon]

Yeah, the Mini 2 becomes your spare back-up drone when you have the Mini 3 Pro :)

[@kevin00714]

Thank you in great multitudes! My Mini 3 Pro is my first drone. I need all the help I can get!

[@CWAdventures1968]

I've not long picked up a new DJI mini 2 and I've been watching some of you're videos and they are so good for a beginner like me..I'm becoming addicted to getting the drone up in the sky..Thanks Ian👍👍

[@bownsaway]

Brilliant Ian these tweaks are very useful indeed.

[@petrpein]

As usual, informative and to the point. You cut through all the unnecessary fat, get right down to the just the lean meat. Thanks Ian (& thanks Ted)

[@boatingsibbingandwandering3262]

Spot on boy. What they were thinking with that brake setting who knows. Has ted had a go with the Avata yet 🤪

[@IaninLondon]

I've just got the Motion Controller 2, so we'll be playing with that this weekend! :)

[@lynsmith1096]

Good tips again Ian

[@IaninLondon]

Cheers Lyn! Hope you're well!

[@buzzindrones]

Hi Ian , I used your 5 tips on my drone and saw a dramatic improvement with the quality of my footage and smoothness. Great tips , Thank you . Regards . Buzz😊

[@IaninLondon]

Great to hear!

[@Clarney]

Covered the exact issue I was looking for advice on, thanks Ian, keep up the good and informative work

[@audit-supporter5728]

Got the new Tripltek 9. Now 1300 Nits. Delighted with the outdoor visuals. No extra taxes to import from the US.

[@westcoastbayaream.g5945]

Oh yeeea appreciate the tips !

[@BreezePhotography]

Thank you for these great settings! They are really appreciated :) Just Got my own Mini 3 Pro Yesterday and wow! Such a nice machine!

[@IaninLondon]

It's brilliant! :)

[@itowmyhome797]

Thank you

[@KevLaj]

Good tips as ever. I just need to buy myself a 3 Pro....

[@IaninLondon]

You will love it......... ;)

[@belovedLion80]

good looking

[@gregmontanino2134]

Okay, I got-er-done...On Drone Format... Next step is a long (12-17 min.) flight test, but it is 105 f. today in Idaho. It was 103 F. yesterday, not my (wishful thinking) 13 c.

[@vanpdroneshots]

Great video again!!, but you made a little mistake with the Tilt Smoothness it doesn't have a values of 70-80 ( max = 30 )😄 20 was it for Normai mode in your previous video

[@IaninLondon]

Thanks for that; unsure why they don't have consistent naming and scales.... 20-25 is the right spot for me...

[@africanhistory]

what about sideways slowing down? I dont recall anyone talking about that.

[@LISTEDGames]

So wait you can remove the twitchiness if you put it on break mode? That's counter intuitive... This is the biggest downfall for me to this drone even in cine mode I barely move the stick but the drone moves too far

[@leroypowell2562]

Hi Ian Are the 5 settings you updated in Mini Pro 3 a must change for the Mini Pro 4? I’ve just bought it and it’s the first drone I’ve owned! Thanks

[@IaninLondon]

Yes, these will work perfectly for the Mini 4 :)

[@Shabz777]

Do you have any recommendations for a backpack ect for a mini pro 3

[@IaninLondon]

Yes, the back I use now is a bit pricey but brilliant for back packing with camera and drone; it's the one on the table in the video: VSGO Pro Camera Backpack: amzn.to/41LDXjW T

[@xboxmoddr5119]

are these setting ok to apply to mini 2

[@raycrowdey3569]

I have downloaded the firmware update installed now when I fly mymini 3 Pro it won't go forward or backwards With the rc controller now I don't know what to do,

[@andrewjohnson6503]

Watching your videos really helps us new pilots saw a video of charging batteries I have a DJI air 2s when I go to up date my batteries all three come up with server error. Wait a moment and try again (code 0x1103a0090012 any advice please.

[@IaninLondon]

Yes. On your computer, go to DJI.com/download and install DJI Assist on your computer. Connect drone via USB C cable to computer, open up Assist, turn on drone power and then update that way...

[@Lunchb0x7]

Hi Ian, think you mentioned in a previous video you would do recommended settings for the Mini 3 as they are different from the 3 Pro. Still planning on putting this out? ps thanks for all your great work

[@IaninLondon]

Hi Rich; yes. It didn't get as many settings in the Gain and Expo screen, but it did get 48Mp photos: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6GYlGx-dqulgdU

[@steve61098]

Hi Ian - just received my M3P…As a beginner I’m looking through set-up procedures and a question I have (for the moment! 😬) is should I activate ‘auto firmware download’ or manually check?….

[@IaninLondon]

I personally allow auto firmware download. It will always ask you if you want to install....

[@sas-sbs-]

after the new update for dji mini 3 pro i cant fly forward or backward

[@TomislavKoren]

To be honest, as a Mavic Pro flyer who transitioned to Mini 3 Pro through Mavic 3 and Air 2S, I see no point of Sport mode unless you're running put of storm. On Mavic Pro I used Sport mode three times - every time I got my battery puffed immediately. So, instead of Sport mode, I would dial "Normal" settings, Normal would become Cine and Cine is already "Tripod". The only drawback is lack of surrounding sensitivity in "Sport" mode which doesn't take reduced speed into account.

[@IaninLondon]

I use Sport mode a lot when I want to get where I ant to start filming...... It shouldn't use too much more of your battery capacity

[@Dan-wl5bc]

Hi not sure anyone can point me in the right direction I've recently quick transfered video from the mini 3 to my phone yet it won't play but does on the rc1 controller not sure why this is I was filiming in 4k 30fps at the time and I can't seem to find the answer to this issue.

[@Dan-wl5bc]

Hi Ian any ideas how to watch video from mini 3 recordings on rc1 as it keeps saying it needs a sd cardin the controller too

[@IaninLondon]

It will only ask for a card in the Controller of you're trying to screen record ( ie dragging down the top of screen and tapping record). That's not Video recording, which you'd do by switching to video mode (screen button on right, just above shutter button), selecting video, and then pressing the shutter button to start recording. Have I understood the issue right?

[@IaninLondon]

Just realised, you might mean playback of videos you've already recorded. That's via the media button on screen in right just below the shutter button....

[@Dan-wl5bc]

@@IaninLondon Thanks Ian, will give it a try.

[@xboxcrazee]

Any plans on trying the mavic pro 3..?

[@IaninLondon]

Not really... I sold my original Mavic 3 last year; compared to the Air 2S and the Mini 3 Pro, I found it too big and noisy....

[@gregmontanino2134]

I'm new to drones and specifically the mini 3 pro - my 1st. I flew around Idaho yesterday for 10 minutes (3 miles round trip at various altitudes), recording video @ 4k - 30 and the drone would only record 5 minutes at a time and then it would open a 2nd file and continue recording automatically. So, for a 10-minute video, I have two files I need to combine... I only found this out during the download. I'd like one file for 15-25 minutes without fragmented videos...any suggestions? You folks are the experts so any time you can offer to give me some feedback is considered high value...Thank you and Kind Regards

[@IaninLondon]

Try formatting the card in the drone, using the function on the Fly App settings. That's normally a restriction of the file format of the card, although in truth, my Osmo Action does this as well...

[@sas-sbs-]

after updating is it possible to go back to the previous firmware

[@IaninLondon]

No. You can never go backwards

[@richardsimmons6470]

Yet again Brilliant thanks May i make i suggestion - Speak a little slower It will make you easier to understand - your earlier Videos are much better (My hearing is not as gfood as it used cto be) Love the dogs Our Nunet just barks at it goes mad

[@IaninLondon]

Hello there! I have been told I speak too slowly and it takes too long! But, a little trick for you; if you click the cog button on the youtube screen lower right, one of the options is playback speed, and you can select 0.75 and that slows things down a little! I use it a lot ! Cheers and thanks again! Ian

[@richardsimmons6470]

@@IaninLondon Thanks Really helps 50% is FUN!!!

[@IaninLondon]

@@richardsimmons6470 try 1.5 X speed.... That's crazy 😉

[@billblair7804]

Oops, accidentally hit the dislike... sorry. It would be useful to advise whether these adjustments are available generally in the Fly app so would apply to other DJI drones. As an owner of an 'old' Air2 I'll be checking next time I fly. As always, very clear advice and much appreciated.

[@IaninLondon]

You can hit the dislike button again and it will cancel! :) Disliking just tells YT do don't like my videos that much, so the algorithm will drop me from its suggestions to you. Which would, of course, be a tragedy! :) Cheers for the good words!

[@billblair7804]

@IaninLondon thx. I did hit it again. Hopefully with right effect.

[@gregmontanino2134]

Thanks for the advice with "on-board' formatting. I will do this asap. It is 13 today in Idaho so I won't be flying for a few days but will let you know...please send me your e-address, same as the e-message you sent me. thanks.

[@therealsharps]

bypass and brake make no difference to sideways flight. there are no side sensors , sideways flight isn't affected - DJi tech. gimbal tilt smoothness is max about 30. there is no 70-80 range as mentioned

[@IaninLondon]

For the Mini 3pro, Bypass Mode actually offers you the option to disable sideways flight because of the lack of sideways sensors. Also, for some reason the numeric range is different between iPhone app and Android app.

[@drone-ph]

Very informative, thank you!
