Experience the Ultimate DJI Mini 3 Pro Active Track Car Test Drive!

[@GAVINHR]

That’s absolutely awesome, plus we have to remember the point of a drone is that it’s a camera for capturing content ! 5:28-5:44 is exactly the perfect transition from low down to a chase shot. It can’t be denied how good this mini 3 is

[@gmivisualsjason3729]

Not always..... my background to the hobby is self built freestyle fpv kwads. I fly the dji mini 3 Pro to Simply enjoy the beauty of the area I'm in. I'm not overly interested in gathering footage just flying... the 1080p back to the screen is great for using the drone mask.

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

Good point :-)

​@@TECHDRONEMEDIA Hallo sehr schon

[@georgekelly1948]

Good-natured flight, as always. Thanks, Henrik, and cheers from Wisconsin.

[@AngieAndersonAerials]

Fantastic in depth review you made. Thanks for sharing 👍

[@dallasc.hunteriii490]

Great informative video Henry, the DJI MINI 3 PRO is a winner!

[@-robster-robster-]

Thanks youve saved me a bit trial and error to try this very thing, with a good baseline to start at 15 meters height depending on surroundings

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

Yes, but look out for your surroundings

[@Cassius..]

Great stuff, learned a lot. Happy flying. Thank you very much 👍🏻

[@___StudioFred___]

Great video, and absolutely wonderful personality! Such a pleasure to watch

[@WildBillRidesAgain]

I was going to make a comment about your conversion speeds but I see you're already getting hammered on that. LOL

[@LionCoupleenRoute]

Thanx for good and fun videos! I think the speed is limited to 36-37kmh in active track even with sport mode That is so one could use normal mode and obstacle avoidance.

[@martinstreasurehunting]

hangin up my Mini se . Getting the Mini 3 pro this weekend. i'll have to watch some of your set up vids. Cheers for Canada

[@N82SV]

Fantastic video. Thanks for doing this.

[@jimthorleydronefootage]

Great Test buddy think the mini 3. Done fantastic on the last run you didn't accelerate just as quick and that helped the drone keep up 👍

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

Yes that helps

[@DrHumorous]

I'm really glad you didn't break the law and no drones were harmed doing this video.

[@binks4385]

I believe that parallel track is based on compass direction rather than the drone’s position relative to its target when you press start. This is why it didn’t stay parallel when you turned the corner.

[@driewiel]

No it is optical. DJI for some silly reason doesn't add GPS follow-me anymore. For that you have to use Litchi or Dronelink.

[@LarryCarlin]

Just love the open Danish countryside. I'm now living in the mountains of Tennessee (USA) and have not yet found a suitable area -- clear of trees-- to test active track along the road. Works fine on the lakes and rivers here. So was a super-interesting road test (tak for det).

[@allegriach]

I was just searching reviews of the brand new dynamic track now available with Autel drones. This here is much more fun....

[@Eddy-Integration]

Thank you for your help 🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@lucasstirpe1685]

Great content👏👏

[@badboy-bob5255]

Hi, very (super!) educational. I tried out active track during skiing last month. Not suitable for fast skiing + a skier as “track object” in a “white snow scenery” is challanging. But it worked out more or less. Thanks for your educational video!

[@Antelope46]

This is amazing! Can't wait to try this! Thank you

[@behemedia7222]

When you made the left in Spotlight / Parellel mode, you said, "...Will it still stay parallel? No, it did not, it's actually flying in front of me" (mark 6:46), but it actually did stay "parallel". I think our natural tendancy is to think that means in line with, but at a distance from the side of the car. You see, it's not in relation to the car's orientation, it's in relation to the drone's location (ie. N,S,E,W, or geo-coordinates) relative to the car, and it performed flawlessly. Did I say that in a way that makes sense? Anyway, it also seems there's a need to position the drone slightly ahead of the footage that you actually want to allow for compensation of the drone once the vehicle starts moving. Great video, it was exactly what I was in search of. Thanks for always pushing the limits.

[@driewiel]

It doesn't look at coordinates. This is active-track, optical. Not GPS follow-me. DJI doesn't use follow-me anymore. For that you have to purchase Litchi or Dronelink.

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi, so what happens to the drone if you drive off at 100mph? Does the drone stop and hover? Will it lock back on when car re-appears?

[@joebeck0]

Absolutely fascinating video! I think you've sold me on the mini 3 pro! Love the portrait mode ability to it as I would mostly use it for instagram reels.

[@sushantsadre]

fantastic! i appreciate your effort sir and i like your style of cheerful presenting. i bought mavic3 recently and have been learning its features and doing some tests. i am jealous of you because you have access to such vast open fileds and no one around 😀(don't mind me saying this)

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

Those places are rare here too

[@petew8388]

Great video and boy, your country lanes look in a much better state than our pot hole ridden ones here in the Uk...

[@goog01]

Very informative. Thank you!

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

[@EckieOutdoor]

I absolutely love the passion (and humour) you are putting in, could watch your video's like a binge! Keep going on with this please 😇

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

:-) thanks 🙏

[@evgDrone]

Parabéns pelo vídeo.

[@MEDAFamilyFilms]

So are you finding that the Mini 3 Pro is struggling to keep the speed when going side-ways? It seems it didn't want to go fast to the side of the car or even backwards in-front of the car.

[@75echo]

Henrik, one important fact you do not state in the videois that DJI state that active track is only functional for speeds less than 10m/s (36km/h) , that being said, the fact that the drone could track you up to 60 km/hr is impressive.

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

ohh, I was not even aware - thank you for bring that up

[@Ferdavision]

Great information thanks. When I hit screen record, I don’t see the same information as you do. I only see what’s being recorded. How do you get detailed like height, and distance to screen record?

[@PhreddCrintt]

Great fun. Great aircraft.

[@EdyDevito]

Great video as always!

[@Mesut_DURMUS]

What a great area to fly a drone...

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

It really is!

[@FlyHiProductionz]

Nice test!

[@AndreChilver-l4i]

That's crazy the drone Follows automatically

[@WillyanAleksander]

They should create a back diagonal (right or left) option, only track or parallel aren't enough. Maybe even the possibility to change between track and parallel while recording

[@IanPerry]

Nice test! Very interesting. Ian :-)

[@lukajuh9030]

Conversions from kph to mph seem to be incorrect 😊 Great video otherwise, as usual.

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

Thanks nice to have you onboard

[@dhwin5709]

Is it possible to have the camera stay near the car and have more upclose footage?

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

Yes, that would be obvious. I do that often with the Air 3 with them medium tele lens

[@randbaldwin]

Are you still flying a Mini 3 pro? I thought you were back to the 2? I think I want it, but now I'm wondering if I should wait for a Mini 4.

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

No I still have the Mini 3 Pro it’s a fantastic little flier :-)

[@joeylepore]

Great video, as usual but as an American, I understand KPH as 50 equaling 30 MPH. Isn't 60 KPH = 36 MPH? 40 kph = 24mph, etc... Why are your numbers off???

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

Because I’m an idiot 🙁

[@WildBillRidesAgain]

@@TECHDRONEMEDIA I wouldn't go that far. LOL.

[@3k3k3]

Can you avoid the altitude drop?

[@matskarlflo3702]

Thank you for your always very Interesting clarifying experiments! Every car has a certain degree of "Happy" overspeed indikation! Normal from at least +5% up to + 10 or even +12%. It might not always be linear equal in al speeds. It's measured from the wheel rotation speed and depends on the tires rotation circumference which might vary a lot! Legislation states in no possible condition the Speed indication is allowed to show too low! So worst case Tire Plus Tolerance decides that marginal!

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

That has not been taken into consideration thanks for pointing out

[@Knapweed]

Your maths is a tad out, mate. 60kph = 37mph not 26.8mph. 40kph = 25mph not 17.9kph. 58kph =36mph not 25.9mph. 56kph = 37mph not 25mph. Nevertheless, it's another very informative video. Thanks for doing the test.

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

Dammit, I see it know - 1 kilometre per hour = 0,621 mile per hour, it must have messed up rearranging the spreadsheet thank you for pointing it out :-(

[@Knapweed]

@@TECHDRONEMEDIA No worries, easy mistake to make and you make very few. :)

[@AimTech22]

Can you do the same but you very close to the car?

[@aljosavornsek6203]

As I see from the screen recording a drone is in N mode during flight. So it is limited with N speed only. Put it in sport mode for max speed.

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

This is pretty odd as I’m pretty sure I switched it as said In the beginning of the video, but I do see it saying N on the recordings

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

You are right and I know why now. When you switch battery the drone will start up in N regardless the setting of the controller.. I would have to redo this one

[@PrashantDronevlogs]

Are flying in sports mode ?

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

It seem I'm not

[@BMWHP2]

In N mode the topspeed is lower

[@goldman7267]

What if there are other cars on that road?

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

It works as well but not as good

[@BenjaminStJohn-en9nv]

Unfortunately we can not fly a drone from a moving vehicle here in the USA. Great video btw.

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

I’m not flying it while moving :-)

[@BenjaminStJohn-en9nv]

@Luis Cotto will do thx

[@-robster-robster-]

Its flying itself

[@ComputerKevAZ]

Please can you repeat your test in sport mode?

[@ComputerKevAZ]

Is this for real Henrik? I got an email as well, but I’m still suspicious. I really enjoy your podcast and your mellow delivery. I also enjoy the scenery, as it reminds me of where I grew up in Central Wisconsin.

[@Air_Devil_Leader_One]

Harold a real nightmare from DJI, I will tell you this dji assistant must have been really bad for the mini 3! I am constantly getting emails, questions, sending date, contact info serial # login data. It will be six daystomorow and I received the email directing me tothe sent upload to fix the drone and they never sent the file. I heard from Harold the beta fix is 03.10 until they have a general update but they never sent me the file. I have no idea what they are doing but there is a real problem here. I can not get any info as to what is going on, and even had direct phone calls from DJI but I was at work and now they are assuming I have fixed the issue. Nothing is accurate, and they assume constantly I am okay. I think there is no fix yet as they are not doing anything to help me and I keep getting the same request for info about login, account, serial number and it never seems to end. I have kept every single email and phone call record and they are in the dozens. I am not too pleased with the jargon from DJI. Ray C

jo, desværre.. men skal lige tjekke om man over kan flyve active track med sport mode pga. sensor - ellers er det fordi, jeg skiftede batteri lige inden, og her starter dronen i N åbenbart uanset controller indstilling

[@keithrandall9076]

Your conversion chart is Very incorrect. I'm in Canada, we use metric, this is the correct conversion. 60 km per hour = 37.28 mph. 50 km per hour = 31.07 mph. Ask Siri if you don't believe me.

[@A_Haunted_Pancake]

Sorry to be the kill-joy, but I really think you where a bit too happy-go-lucky in this one. Glad it worked out so well, but you picked a only lightly populated area and only lightly had no idea what your drone was doing up there and it's that kind of sloppiness & "bending" the rules that causes accidents. Love your stuff, but you're a big boy, and should have gotten yourself somebody else to drive.

[@TECHDRONEMEDIA]

I know you are right, but tool my precautions

[@partybrawl1764]

[@EckieOutdoor]

Have you tried this with Litchi yet? When you use Follow ( = follow controller/phone/tablet actually ) I wonder what the drone does when driving really fast. I think I'm going to try that this week myself 🤪

[@PrashantDronevlogs]
