Pro level but in a tiny body. Brilliant improvements on camera and flight performance but staying portable and convenient. So far so good Mini 3 Pro!!!

[@fujicinema]

The only thing I don't like is the 8 bit footage :(

[@Troy-Echo]

Fuji beat me to it...the 8 bit footage is noticeable. You can still get passable footage and images for professional work, but the Air 2s wins that one. Although for the money, smart remote and some other features, the Mini 3 Pro is a VERY solid drone for the budding professional pilot. That smart remote and built in 1.3 GB of storage is a game changer. I'm getting into aerial photography and although I'm still early in the game and deciding which drone I really want to start with, I was looking at a neighbors roof because some roofers were trying to scam her into paying $7K to $24K for a new roof when it just needs to be cleaned. I explained roof cleaning, and went to look at her roof and as a nicety, I was going to photograph her roof from the air and look at her exhaust vents to see if they needed to be caulked. The first trip I used my ladder and cell phone for photos, but forgot I'd pulled my SD card and hadn't put it back, which is very rare for me. I went back a few days later to look inside her attic and took the drone again, only this time I had the remove, but I didn't have the cell phone to see what I was photographing, so that was a second wasted drone trip. If I'd had the Mini 3 Pro, that built in storage and all in one remote would have saved the day.

[@UHDGamers-re2xj]

@@fujicinema Obviously that has changed since an update to 10bit video now.

[@tomdchi12]

Nice that DJI isn't forcing over-sharpening of the image. The ideal would be an option for zero sharpening "in camera" so we can control it in post, of course.

[@MichaelOrtega]

The drone alone cost $669. It works with the regular controller that the Air2s came with (for those who already have one and want to save). But if you want the smart controller it’s almost 1k after taxes US

[@powdermuaythai]

you saved me from having to google it myself, not all heros wear capes.

[@MichaelOrtega]

@@renderinghues it would have to be paired up with the same controller the Air2s comes with (IF you already have one). Other wise, you can buy the mini 3 Pro with the Smart RC controller. (Personally speaking, I think the Smart RC controller is good to have because using your cellphone has its issues, however, it’s much more expensive).

[@RTSLV]

Will it work just with the phone

[@B-Moye]

Anyone know if the older DJI Smart Controller is compatible with the DJI Mini 3??

[@DaveSy]

What about the Mini 2 controller? This is the question more people are asking.

[@Rappasta]

I love my mini2, I use it for hiking, so I am definetly looking at this one, since it has the smart features and it could follow me when I do my stunts.

Here in Canada. I’m beyond excited for this drone! Being sub 250G’s is a huge deal over here due to not having to register this drone which comes with restrictions. I’m returning my Air 2S for this one already. Thanks for the video!

[@Abdi_Mohamed_]

Thank God i waited to see what the MINI 3 can do This is exactly what i wanted A small lightweight 249g Drone that removes alot of the crazy restriction BUT without sacrificing a lot of the bigger drones specs 4K 60FPS should be the standard for any Drone in 2022, and glad to see they upgraded that along with flat colour profile and new lens always felt the Air 2s was a bit too expensive especially if you want the fly more combo Great review as always Would love a direct comparison to the Air 2S to see the speed difference, noise level, low light test, and overall feel of the drone etc etc

[@joaoramos32]

Flat colour profile without 8bit instead of 10bit, kinda ruins the whole thing for me. Probably better to just use the normal color profile and not mess with the colors in post to much

[@TheStudio520]

I like how you wrap things up and get straight to the point. Fast and precise!

[@TheStudio520]

Anyone can verify if this is genuine?

[@HardyOh]

[@DodInTheSky]

I just got the Mini 2. I'm glad I didn't wait for this one. The features are great on the 3 Pro but the bump in price doesn't seem to be worth it.

[@burger7614]

don't agree im thinking about selling my mini 2 300 dollars more the specs on this beast of a drone

[@MVMTV4Videos]

DJI Mini 3 Pro is a fantastic sub 250g drone. It's a crunched down version of the DJI AIR 2 Since i have an Air 2 and a Mini 2 i don't think it's worth upgrading just yet. I'm hoping they Sync the New RC controller that comes with Mini 3 with The Air 2 and the other DJI drones that i have. I really want the controller. The video was awesome. TY for sharing. Well done thumbs up👍

[@jburddrone7202]

Having occusync 03 like the Air 2S is worth it plus the extra flight features that the Mini 2 doesn't have.

[@davidrfrench]

The dynamic range is the Achilles heel of the Mini 2. If the 3 is demonstrably better (rather than just on the spec sheet) I would probably upgrade. It’s the difference between OK footage and great footage.

[@LiiveRosiin]

[@marktrubi5502]

I hope to God the RC controller will be compatible with both the Mini 3 Pro and the Mavic 3! 🤞 Getting the Mini 3 Pro + RC controller is a waaaay better deal than buying the RC Pro on its own. And if there's anywhere the Mavic 3 can't go, the Mini 3 will have it covered 😎

[@nrice3623]

I'm hoping it works with the Mavic 2 Pro as well!

[@beatsbychurchil3485]

Cool ,DJI has been in the game for sometime and is getting better and convinient with every update .

[@brnktv]

So, I run the Autel Evo 2 Pro 6k V2, and I wouldn't trade it for any DJI drone, but I'd definitely add this Mini 3 Pro to my kit. It's pretty bangin' for such a tiny drone. Very impressed with it. The Mini from Autel has been around for quite a bit, hopefully we get a new one from them soon.

[@AndrewShafer]

Lol, I saw that leak video came out and i was like nah, we gotta wait to hear from Potato Jet

PLEASE try to pair that awesome O3 smart controller with an Air 2 / 2S and let us know. I would get one of these in a heartbeat if it worked with the older Air 2, and bonus...nice little mini with better camera. LoL. I seriously think DJI is missing out on not allowing the FPV goggles to work with the recent stuff (I also want to plug in HDMI digital FPV goggles to the USB C port and have it "share" the video for really bright days...PLEASE!!). Great review!

LMAO that back room scene was Hilarious.... Great review keep it up Bro..

[@tommydaynjer5334]

I wonder when they’ll have a firmware update to allow Air 2 and 2s to use that controller! That controller is everything! Especially because that SD card option to download the files directly on the controller so it’s not loading up your phone!

If this works with the first Gen DJI Smart RC controller (like the mini 2/Mavic 2) then I’m on board. Seems easy to upgrade from the mini 2 since they use the same controller. the bigger battery life, vertical video, bigger sensor, and no need for a new controller are great and make a good argument to upgrading without buying the controller for a little under $1k for the fly more plus

[@visualrealityproductions1421]

Sadly it will not connect to the Smart Controller because of the OS3. I need a smart controller for HDMI out. It appears it does not even work with the new RC Pro.

[@funkam0nkey]

Just put my Air 2S up for sale and ordered a Mini 3. I take a lot of photos with my Air 2S so I’m taking a chance on the Mini 3 being as good if not better than it.

[@2Bluzin]

If you live in the US the restrictions are the same across the board. 5 dollars to register bigger drones, not a big deal. No benefit to downgrade unless you live in the UK or Canada. And, if you plan to use the Mini to make money, you still have to register it just like a bigger drone.

[@Voltis-5]

@@2Bluzin as a new drone owner what is this $5 registration you speak of? Do I have to take a test for that one? I was planning on getting it with the bigger capacity battery which will make the 3 over 250g. Will that be an issue?

[@HCG]

Have you ever had any actual issues with restrictions? Or are you just talking about the restrictions in general? I’ve never followed the rules or registered my drones (not maliciously, I’ve always prioritized safety), and I haven’t had a single issue or fine. I’m genuinely curious.
