DJI Mini 3 Pro Home Inspection Close Proximity Review - Crash Machine

[@justkiddin08]

I use my mini for a lot of stuff also. Check gutter on the house and the roof. Last year a child went missing in our town, we used drones to help locate the child. Found him walking in the woods alive and well.

[@jamdungdrones2424]

One of the main reasons why I watch all your videos because of the scenic locations that you choose. Even your home is unbelievably scenic.

[@jcflying8763]

Nice tutorial here on using the Mini for roof inspections. I use my mini 2 on homes like yours with the trees so close and set the RTH to hover. My Air-2S I shut off the OA, you really don't need it if your doing the inspection correctly like having it in sight at all times. Nice job again.

[@bhosterman]

And this is the exact reason I switched to the Avata. The mini 3 pro is awesome until a collusion. Mine hit a tree branch in while orbiting, which in fairness, was my fault, but basically the same thing happened. It got all confused trying to recover and ended up upside down, blades just chopping away until I forced the motors to stop. It’s hard to say how much more damage it caused by this but the end result was 4 blades ruined and one of the arm joints compromised to the point that it had to be sent in for repair. The Avata on the other hand has gone down twice with no issues post crash. Once by a flag that decided to wave last minute and once by my dog snatching it out of the air mid flight. Anyway, I love your videos!

[@bhosterman]

@@bodkinsbestphotography Ha. Spelling makes a difference. Collisions.

[@dgibbsfl]

Very impressive close proximity test, almost as impressive as the sub zero temperature flight distance test that ended in another broken arm hung in the tree five miles from anywhere.

[@evanc8919]

I feel you. Crashed my mini 3 pro the first day. Accidentally hit a tree branch while flying sideways and the drone was absolutely destroyed. Gimbal was pretty much ripped out of the drone, props were broken, two arms broke and the casing of the drone separated as well. Most of the damage likely happened as the drone was falling inside the tree before hitting the ground. Luckily I had DJI care and was back up and running in less than a week. However, I know now that if this drone hits anything it will likely be destroyed because it is frail. Crashed the original mini a few years ago and only had to replace a prop from the extras in the box. DJI care is a must with the Mini 3 Pro because the gimbal and arms are just fragile.

[@lambo_drives]

I crashed my first Mini 3 Pro several times.. it wasn't until trying SPORT mode in the hockey rink (26 mph into the boards... doh) that it finally really broke 😊 glad you got up and running quickly sounds like you REALLY hit that tree😅

[@KuKuKuK69]

@Dustin Dunnill I was at first impressed by the drone review, but first crash in low speed going up in to a tree and it broke, in your electric bike review. So I will keep using my Mavic Air for now, because I have not found a good replacement, with that good build quality as the compact Mavic Air. The Mini 3 Pro seems to be a weak construction 😟 I have the old (discontinued) Dji Mavic Air and have crashed it several times up, in to trees, forward in to bushes in sport mode and other pretty hard crash scenarios I don't even remeber. No cracks or damages to the drone what so ever.. Once I replaced one propeller due to it "looked" a little bent and scratched. But other than that, no damage to the drone or the "arms" and propellers.

[@dondywondy]

Very important information for anyone considering a purchase of the DJI Mini 3 Pro. It looked like the drone 'lost its mind' and just flew right into the structure. Very disappointing for this drone to have such buggy obstacle avoidance. Since this definitely appeared to be the result of a bug or defect please let us know how DJI handles the warranty repair as that could impact a decision to purchase this model. Thanks again for making, editing and posting your videos!

[@DustinDunnill]

They repaired and returned at no charge. I sent them the flight log and I figure it was determined to be a defect 🍻

[@dji1tommy29]

Prob due to the bypass setting, I’d much rather use the stop feature or turn it off completely and be extra careful before moving. Also gotta keep in mind when flying close to slanted roofs or walls you’ll get some really weird downdrafts off the props and can cause the drone to become pretty unstable.

[@barryconstant]

ouch! Sorry that happened. I am wondering if the bright wall confused the DJI plus the By Pass setting.

[@sim2g]

I love the quality of your production.

[@ReneNieuwenhuis]

A very simple fix; just buy a front axis, unscrew 3 screws, remove the old axis parts on the drone AND arm, screw a new axis in, screw de axis to the arm and your ready to fly again. Costs maybe 10 US. The axis is made of plastic, breaks all the time. I’m the owner of a Dutch repair centre, almost a daily fix for the DJI Mini 3 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@rapidrick]

I used mine (original mavic pro) to check the inner diameter of the flute of my wood burning stove (new the outer diameter) as I needed to order anti down draft cover! Also very handy for inspecting slates etc on our roof after a bad storm.

[@richiefrankproductions]

I'm glad DJI replaced your drone. Despite the "incident" I found the video very helpful. I've crashed my mini 3 pro twice due to stupidity doing orbits to close to trees knowing I didn't have side sensors and my worst outcome seems very similar to yours where I hadn't had refresh I ordered a hinge on ebay and replaced it at the arm base in under five minutes. Cost was 20 bucks and also 2 props. I see alot of people both complaining about how they could of put side sensors on but that would have indefinitely put the drone over 250 grams which to stay underweight they would have had to make the drone even more "flimsy", I don't beleive myself that it's any type of marketing ploy just takes alot of engineering to stuff all of that into a lightweight drone and with the introduction of new forms of materials coming out im sure they will get there. Sorry for rambling, again, great and informative videos are what keep me coming back so thanks again for that. Keep up the great work.

[@RonaldBrown59]

Sorry about the crash, I hope you can get it repaired through your DJI Care Refresh, Maybe prop guards could help next time? Thanks for sharing.

[@kernowradio]

Interesting video!! I would have had obstacle avoidance on Brake, as if set to fly around or bypass and the obstacle is to big, it can confuse it!! Hopefully you can get it sorted and flying again 🙂

[@monkeyfpv7866]

Thats a real shame Dustin, I was really getting into the post. Not quite your usual long video, shame it was cut short. Good luck in getting it fixed. I’m sure Dji will identify the problem from the flight log and sort you a freebie repair.

[@billsomrak]

Man, your new home is HUGE ... must be 3000 sq. ft. When I got my M3P, I paid for the 'insurance', so I get free replacements for a year. Pretty tough conditions with the extreme sun & shadows, along with a very irregular 'foot print" ( compared to say, a single story ranch home). Don't you have a Mavic 3 pro which DOES have 360 deg. O.A. ??? I still remember your 1st Mavic trying to explore the depths of that waterfall area in Hawaii 😆. I've used my UAVs to inspect my home (& antennas) lots of times with no crashes. I even used my old XK-X380 to 'inspect' (try to flush out) a yellow jacket nest in my shrubs (that didn't work .. had to call an exterminator). Hope you get your replacement soon. Cheers.

[@HikeFly22]

[@AAlvarez14520]

Did you have DJI Care Refresh?

[@petrpein]

Hi Dustin. Thanks for sharing. Sorry to see you go through the experience, but the OA is certainly not perfect by any means, as you found out. It works most of the time. Only trouble is that ONE time when the OA freaks out that will cost you dearly. It's still too sketchy and I have heard of just too many incidents (confirmed or otherwise) which ultimately made me disable the OA on my Mini 3 and instead be more deliberate in my piloting by keeping my wits about me when flying. Anyway, I'm glad you got it all sorted out with DJI. Hope to see more of your drone reviews, especially your amazing long-range tests.

[@eastcoastdrones4517]

Gorgeous House. Sorry to see what happened but that was nuts.

[@DFRANCOO80]

Hi for house inspections or things like that use brake option bypass is no recommended for small areas

[@mxracingunlimitedltd7784]

DJI REALLY needs to sell replacement arms for a reasonable price. Its a hollow square tube made of plastic. Maybe one day we'll see some 3D printed or aftermarket replacement arms with plastics similar to what like RPM Racing uses in there almost unbreakable and slightly flexible plastic parts.. I had an almost identical situation as you with my new Mini 3 Pro. It dropped maybe 5ft and it flipped over and the propellers kept spinning and pretty fast and it caused three of the motor arms to crack. And now that i see them broken and inside, its just a hollow piece of plastic. its a $10 part that totals the whole drone.. Hopefully DJI honors my replacement request because its been less than 30 days, but if that doesn't go as planned for some reason.. I didn't really want to use one of my DJI Care Refresh Drone Replacement, just for arm replacements. I see yours look like it might have broke at the hinge, which is a seperate part, but replacing the arms when your motors are still fine, should be a relatively reasonable cost option to buy seperately or have them replaced by DJI if they won't allow you to work on it. I'm used to my other RC Drones and RC trucks/cars/planes, where every part is basically replaceable and that's how you keep it going. So the company makes plenty of money in replacement parts.

[@bobwhite3707]

Thanks for the video Dustin. Sorry for the crash though. Did you take a look at the flight logs to perhaps glean a bit more information on what happened? I hope that you get your mini 3 pro back soon.

[@ShadoMoosess]

Something was definitely off with the drone having that high altitude warning. But, I don't think anyone should be using obstacle avoidance for such simplistic work anyways. If you were flying through tight spaces, tunnels, etc yeah. But, you're inspecting the gutters and roof. The drone should just hover most of the time. Also it would help if you kept VLOS on the drone too. Can't see everything if you're just staring at the screen 100% of the time.

[@thriftysurvivor6117]

There are two ways for you to get closer, on would be to turn off obstacle avoidance or you can keep obstacle avoidance on and approach sideways then pan around to get a look at what you've gotten closer to. Personally, I'd prefer to just turn off obstacle avoidance as to not have to approach an object blindly. Now with my Air 2 it's safer to come in sideways since you can pan the camera without panning the drone which allows you to see if you're getting to close to an object. Sorry to see you crashed your drone. I recently crashed my Air 2 as I was flying low over trees, but since the leaves were all gone the obstacle avoidance didn't see a branch. After the drone hit the branch, it was still hovering so I tried to fly up and continue flying but it hit a branch that was above it which caused to fall 70 feet to the ground. I guess I should have backed out in stead. The damage was pretty extensive so given the new FAA regulations I decided to just replace it with a Mini 3 Pro. Hope your replacement goes smoothly. Thanks for sharing.

[@j0404t]

Curious - do you think that same crash with an Avata would have fared better and survived because of the frame acting as a guard? Considering getting an Avata to inspect the house.

[@DustinDunnill]

Absolutely. I think the Avata 2 may have got some scratches at most. I'm thinking of now doing a video like this with it 👍

[@j0404t]

@@DustinDunnill Please do. I think the initial reaction i am getting from people is the Avata as an outdoor action drone is not ideal for it, but i think in a pinch it's would be the best option for close quarters like in a crawl space or attic because the guards will protect the propellers + turtle mode can flip it if i accidentally crash it and not easily able to reach. Is my understanding correct?

[@DustinDunnill]

Correct. But it needs a few feet to relaunch, so relaunching in something like a crawl space may not work if it crashes in tight boxed in areas.

[@Filmman586]

Hey Dustin. Did you leave Hawaii?

[@beefwellington2945]

Doesnt launching drones off metal objects mess with the calibration or something like that?

[@herealeximus]

I clearly saw the gap in red circling obstacle line prior crash, may be drone decided it will fit and bypass. It would be interesting to see direct comprasion with full sensor covered drone though. For me, I will very gently step by step move forward in such scenarious, remembering what could go wrong when you press full throttle.

[@theflyingsandalrc]

Hum... I think this crash was more user error than the obstacle avoidance not working. Good video still.

[@dondywondy]

He said he did not use control to fly sideways so this definitely appears to be a bug or defect in the drone, not user error.

[@Matanumi]

a combo of obth I'd say- too much relying on OA

[@DustinDunnill]

FYI DJI repaired (actually sent a new replacement) at no charge. Flight log was uploaded to the Case #. So they must have determined it was a drone malfunction 🍻

[@theflyingsandalrc]

Totally agree. Not your fault. I would hope DJI will review your files from the crash, and use that info to make the Mini3 better. Looking forward to your range tests.

I'm not experienced enough yet to fly close proximity to anything. But DJI is just 2 much $$$ to risk it. Get a cheapo cfly faith 2 pro for stuff like this Dustin! (It's got 360° obstacle detection)

[@MrPlaneTalk]

At 1:30 you show that the screen record is HD. (HD is 720p or above). However, it has been reported by several KZbinrs that the “screen record” is actually no higher than 480p, which looks fine on the controller, but terrible otherwise. Can you confirm this?

[@BendApparatus]

@@MrPlaneTalk I think you replied to the wrong comment. But most drones record 4k to the internal SD card regardless of what the resolution to the FPV monitor is.

[@MrPlaneTalk]

@@BendApparatus haha. Yes, I did reply to the wrong comment, however my question is still valid. I am talking specifically about the RC Controller. I understand that the drone records 4K. I am saying that the “screen record” on the controller records in 480p only. So when you want to use that footage on your desktop to create a KZbin tutorial, it sucks.

[@DustinDunnill]

I just looked at the properties of the file and it's only 960x540 so it seems you are correct not qualified for HD. It's like an enhanced SD ..lol 🍻

[@supergeodotca]

I would probably use my Insta360 RS with my 10 ft long selfie stick to do most of that inspection.

[@paullelys161]

Seems like the motors running when they flip over is possible. I've heard it happen to a couple of people. I had it happen to me after the drone hit a tree and crash landed on a mound of dirt all props spinning and throwing up dust everywhere. The accident was totally my fault but the motors should have shut down. Obstacle avoidance(brake) was on. Lucky for me there was only a couple of broken blades and a bit of cleaning to do along with a gimbal calibration. Hope it can be fixed with a firmware update.

[@georgeaura]

So are you no longer in Hawaii?

[@Robert-bu5fv]

Another good video!

[@JPMIIIIIIIII]

This drone brought many improvements, but it is DJI's frailest ever... So I recommend the guys, if they want to fly indoors, or close to many obstacles like the one in the video, I strongly recommend the propeller protection kit and gimbal protector, the only gimbal protector on the market is quite big, and it weighs 15g and to make matters worse, it covers the highest view, I recommend making one with double-sided glue and hard paper or plastic, or 3d (3g, without disturbing anything) just as a second layer of protection. Otherwise, expect the punch in your wallet sooner rather than later. Wallet

[@2nd-place]

Dang that was pretty bad. Doesn’t seem like a worthy upgrade over my Mini 2 when the main new feature doesn’t even work well! Also I’ve crashed my Mini 2 several times at higher speed and altitude and never broke an arm. I was a new pilot and it was my first real drone. Haven’t crashed it in a long time. This thing seems more fragile. I think my next drone will be a future version of the Air.

[@WestVirginiasBigred271]

That’s really unfortunate that you crashed the mini 3 pro I noticed that you said you had to return the first mini 3 pro because of some jello issues. I have also had some issues with my mini 3 pro getting jello. But it seems that it is only an issue when the wind is blowing strong and when I turn the drone around and the wind is blowing towards the side of the gimbal. Then it gets jello. I also have the mini 3 non pro and I have the same issue with it. But when the wind is calm I get great video footage with both mini 3 and mini 3 pro. I think it’s just something to do with the design of the gimbal. DJI should have used the same design as on the mini 2 in my opinion. I have never had any jello with it or any problems after two years of flying it. I am getting the same distance with both mini 3 and mini 3 pro. The the pro has Ocysync 3 and the non pro has ocusync 2 but the non pro has 2 antennas. So maybe that’s why I get the same range results. I do get longer flight times with the non pro Must be the senors on the pro using extra battery power. Same result with air 2 and air 2s. Hopefully DJI will send you a new one. I ordered a gimbal guard that protects the gimbal while in flight I thought maybe it would help reduce the wind from blowing on the gimbal and stop jello. Hopefully that works. It’s on order so I’ll know soon.

[@DustinDunnill]

You may want to see if DJI will send you a new drone if it's a known issue they fixed 🍻

[@Lithium023]

Occusync 2.0 has two antennas but occusync 3.0 has 4 antennas so it should in theory get much better range strength.

[@ThatBoySkinny]

I disagree actually. I think we get a bit ahead of ourselves cause we have RC hearts 😅 a drone is a tool specifically an m3pro is a camera and it is used to get in places that we can not as humans. There is no home inspection reason to fly the drone without direct LoS which would allow you to disable obstacle avoidance and really butt that baby up to some unique positions with your true human eyes as support. Ofc relying on competence but you obv have that part handled. All in all - you would not have crashed if you werent relying on obstacle avoidance but still using the drone to substitute a ladder! Just my 2 pennys. Like your content btw good for the ears at work lol

[@DustinDunnill]

That's a safe bet but I like to see if products perform as advertised and what the limitations/issues are. Companies do see these videos and work to improve their products from trials like this. I'm all for improvement for a better consumer product. DJI fixed it for free so it seems to be an issue they know of and felt it was a failure of the advertised OA 🍻

[@ThatBoySkinny]

@@DustinDunnill oh of course. 2 different questions really: 1. Can the drone do the job - i think that answer is yes 2. Did the OA perform to the manufacturers standard - negative

I think I’m going to wait until the 4 is out and hopefully they will have fixed all these bugs on this drone. DJI seem to be just like Apple, where the technology is there but they keep you hanging for the next model. The mini 3 pro could easily have sideways sensors built into it but they seem very greedy (I guess they’re a business at the end of the day but just pure greed) I’ll stick with my mini 2 and trust myself. Best way to fly because I believe that learner flyers will get complacent and rely on these sensors too much - which is fine if you’re flying at your home or whatever but I wouldn’t want a beginner flying over my kids and not having a clue as to where their drone is or if something bad is about to happen.

If you find a sweet spot that is safe from trees and obstacles you can use the ZOOM to see the details you are looking for. Why get 5 feet away when I can be 10 to 15 ft away and just ZOOM. 🤔 It’s not the drone I have an M3 and use the ZOOM instead of trying to get too dam close. When you finish the range test you will need another drone.

[@gizfpv]

You should never rely on obstacle avoidance - it's a nice feature to have, but it's better to pretend you don't and instead just concentrate on being a good pilot. I bet if you didn't have obstacle avoidance you wouldn't have even tried to fly at the wall like that. It was a rookie mistake bro

[@DustinDunnill]
