First of all thank you very much for the review. I do not like the tracking of the Skadio, it is very aggressive compared to DJI.

Best drone review I've ever seen. And that skydio thing is amazing

[@codyrayl6629]

Thanks!

[@RonaldBrown59]

The Mini 3 Pro did remarkably well in this test. The Mini 3 had trouble keeping up with you in the open area's, but I thought the video it captured, due to its smoother moves made it feel more cinematic than the Skydio. Great testing, you are always so thorough in these tracking video's. Thanks for sharing.

[@SteveMartinUSA]

Who doesn't love your tracking videos! I love watching you smashing into trees and signs, or go into the freezing water to retrieve your crashed drones. I haven't come across anyone else that does this even remotely as well as you do. Nice work. I'm glad they're sending you drones to test even though you give honest feedback and seem to pay for some of your own equipment. THANK YOU!

@@McStoolio I don’t typically do them, purely from a regulatory standpoint. However, I will say that very consistently on multiple continents I was hitting max range limits of 1,100-1,200m, with a singular exception of 1,500m once. This was with the DJI RC, before signal drops started.

[@realMysta]

I feel like even though the mini was slower it had a more cinematic feel to it, I think if they allowed you to 'accept' it being slightly more aggressive that would be a big win. The Skydio honestly I wouldn't really even want that footage as a whole but it would probably have lots of good clips come out of it.

[@KirsiKitten]

Completely agree with this. Even though DJI loses on the object avoidance, it at least made some good usable footage, I feel like with the Skydio just rubber banding all over the place negates any useful footage you would want from that feature.

[@realMysta]

Also kinda funny the Nifty mode is basically this more aggressive mode.

[@rustler08]

I'd rather have a non-crashed drone over "cinematic feel." If I want cinematic shots, I'll have someone control it. The most important thing is not crashing in following, because most people cannot eat $750 drone crashes because it looked a bit smoother.

[@realMysta]

@@rustler08 I'd rather use my drone appropriately and get results I want than pay for a drone that gives me shit footage. Maybe that's just me. This guy was pushing them through tough scenarios, doesn't mean you have to, but in any case the footage looked better. I choose the DJI. Also worth noting there is an option with BestBuy, DJI, insurance, etc to cover loss of drone.

[@mrlawilliamsukwarmachine4904]

@@KirsiKitten I think there is the ‘nice video’ aesthetic aspect Vs the functional “follow that car!” . The skydiving has a more ‘epic’ look about it. Like an action movie!!

Nice - thanks for the detailed tests. I've been flying DJI since Phantom 2, tracking since Mavic Pro, and Skydio all models. I would've thought DJI would've done better against Skydio by now but they are still improving and that's great. I like them both and they both have different strengths.

[@keepitsimple7277]

This is by far the best drone review I have ever come across on this platform. Incredible work mate. Love from India.

[@Adventurist]

Great video, thanks! I mean as a video editor I think most of the clips from the Skydio are basically unusable for any sort of professional video. It is way too wobbly. Mini 3 is seemingly the way to go if you don’t fly in the jungle.

[@truthseeker6804]

if you dont fly in the jungle the skydio would stick to the position you place it. the skydio is "wobbly" because its trying not to lose tracking the subject, so prioritize tracking instead of not being "wobbly". thats why it never lost tracking in his test.

[@Dcrainmaker]

I think one of the things that many people (including myself) often do is we look at a long-form cut of these shoots and think about how the footage might not be as usuable due to wobble/etc. However, in reality, from a video editing standpoint, we're often only using 3-5 seconds of it as b-roll/etc... Meaning, very few people are watching it end to end (if ever). Certainly, the Skydio gives you less 'clean' b-roll chunks to choose from. No doubt. However, inversely, some of the higher speed shots it gets when you do have those pockets just blow away the DJI Mini 3 in terms of speed/creativity/closeness. Sadly, there isn't a perfect unit that does both of those yet.

[@DaDarthShow]

This convinced me to get the 3, this is the only channel that do legit drone tracking.

[@erhan734]

This is the best video for active track of dji mini 3 pro. Keep up the good work!

[@RCmies]

Two very different approaches to tracking. I ordered the Mini 3 but I gotta say even though the skydio is going back and forth a lot, it makes some much more interesting shots compared to the mini 3. There were multiple small 1 - 2 second snippets in the footage where the drone came from behind to the side, weaved around the trees etc. With good editing i think the footage allows for a lot more creativity.

[@godzillaeatsushi4979]

Dude. Skydio is way more batter drone

[@LockeLeviathan]

I want to use a drone to track my form while mountain biking for training alone. The mini looks good, but so much of the footage is useless, obstacle avoidance while mountain biking is a deal breaker. Your analysis is spot on, from what I see here.

[@beyondfossil]

This is exactly the video I needed to see! Wow! Well done.

[@bodkinsbestphotography]

Super informative. I love how you stress test these things. Definitely paints a better picture than some of the other channels.

[@ShimodaDesigns]

Must say love your channel for both the bike and small camera tech. It has been a great resource for myself. I lost a Skydio 2 in the local mountains when the it flew away and self landed in inaccessible terrain. The only thing I miss about it is what you mentioned at the end about not needing a controller. The Skydio drone size is not convenient, but the fact you can fly it with just a phone was great. With that said, my old Mini 2 replaced the Skydio (when I still had it) really quickly due to it's compact size and just being able to always bring it. Which was a huge advantage. I've order the new mini 3 today :)

[@Dcrainmaker]

Yeah, I agree on the Skydio 2 feeling unpredictable sometimes in landing. It's a reason I don't actually use it as much as I'd like. The landing aspects can be tricky in 'spicy' terrain situations (like on the side of a mountain).

[@naomimccoykie4782]

I've watched a lot of Mini 3 reviews today, but this was the one I was waiting for before buying!

[@rsj7458]

I really appreciate your active track videos for each drone and comparing them with skydio. I also appreciate your other videos too. I think dji is never gonna be like skydio when it comes to tracking. But mini 3 pro is awesome!

[@LogovoCA]

Oh boy, this is nail-biting. Thanks for showing what it can do. Interesting enough, DJI has much smoother footage, yet Skydio produces quite a lot of short cinematic moments that can be picked in editing.

[@joecoulter1267]

Props (HA) to skydio for their crazy obstacle avoidance system, but you are right, it’s anything but cinematic. The mini 3 pro seems to track about as well as my air2s, which is great, impressive even-and this is on early firmware. With the addition of 10 bit in this new update, this is going to be great companion to the air2s.

[@108mtsan]

On the skydio drone, he had it on "motion track" mode which is why the drone was flying all over the place. If he selected "fixed track" instead, the footage would have ran just as cinematic or smoothly as on the dji mini 3.

The most usefull active track function is to be able to shot yourself when you ride alone. But it mostly requires one simple but very critical function - lock all controls on remote control before you can put it in your back.

[@stephendoggett190]

Certainly the Mini 3 is the best tracking of all the DJI drones, plus it is quite smooth in its tracking. Hopefully the Mini 4 will have a full 360 obstacle avoidance.

[@ViciousXUSMC]

I just got a M3P and never heard of SkyDio, honestly kinda wish I knew about this drone. It is all over the place in tracking so creating one continuous video with the footage would be bad. But what I saw was it was more competent in not crashing and staying with you, it kept up better, and it created more dynamic and cinematic shots that would be great when cut and spliced together as a reel. The reality of being a content creator, nobody is going to want to watch a 10-60 min video, they will want a highlight reel, and for that I think the SkyDio was the winner, and of course as the operator, not needing the controller and less worry of baby sitting for tracking or a crash is a big win.

[@carcistan]

If Skydio added an option to smooth things out preferntially, it'd be untouchable. The tracking is just incredible vs. the Mavics I own; I had no idea that level of obstacle avoidance was even possible in a sub-$1000 unit

[@Falasi4]

Fantastic testing!!! I've been looking at the Skydio for cycling. Not sure it would handle really deep woods with face slappers during overgrowth season but looks promising!

[@Dcrainmaker]

In my experiance, neither drone handles deep woods well. My originial Skydio 2 test covers this a bit in MTB scenarios, and basically, it's kinda rough. In theory, Skydio makes a 1m bubble (1m radius from aircraft) around itself that it needs to clear to get through. So that's like 2m/6ft of actual distance. Many times in MTB, you'll squeek through some trees barely bigger than your handlebars. So, it quickly gets stuck. If you have more open terrain, then it's fine. But for everything I have around here, or the Alps in the woods, etc...no luck.

[@PS-Straya_M8]

[@uponpaul]

Very nice video! Shows the pros and cons of both well. Personlly I do like the DJI more due to the more cinematic following behavior. Skydio stays tracked in worse situations but with a lot of janky movement. As someone already said in the comments, if DJI would make a setting to set the aggressiveness basically Tesla like it would probably improve it even more!

[@SteveMartinUSA]

"Parallel" tracking on my Mavic Air 2 usually turns into Trace mode, unless I'm going VERY slow. Anything faster and the drone always ends up following behind no matter where it started off. I'd like to see what this one does in those regards.

@@truthseeker6804 Go ahead and reread my original comment. I clearly stated that the Skydio had better obstacle avoidance. Your comments about what a professional would do are hilarious coming from someone who thinks that footage is not only usable, but good, and the solution is to just “cut it up”. If you had any real experience or cinematic taste you’d know that you often need long shots. I can’t believe I need to clarify this for you, but yes, obviously you wouldn’t use entire clips without editing. Again, my point is even if you cut that footage into 3 second clips they would still look bad because it is objectively bad footage. Stop role playing like you know what you’re talking about and accept the fact that you’re just an upset amateur that feels the need to defend their favorite drone brand to strangers on the internet.

Awesome video. I personally would have used the Skydio beacon is that's a differentiating feature -- anyone who gets one most certainly would use the beacon if they're tracking

[@Dcrainmaker]

I actually rarely use the beacon, mainly because it doesn't actually increase tracking accuracy. Rather, it solves the problem for when it loses image tracking. So basically, the beacon is great to keep it from losing tracking, but if it can see you, it's going to use the optical sensors.
