Now I understand why leaving collision sensors switched on consumes so much battery power. Before watching this video clip I thought those sensors consumed power simply due to the computing those sensors require. Now I understand that the sensors cause oscillations of the airframe that drain a lot of battery power. No FCC or CAA where I live so I can apply the wisdom found in this clip every time I fly my drones 6 miles out.

Great test but you are aware that the range test of 20km is for the RC transmission and not a battery range. DJI don't give you a battery range but in mins of flight time.

Hi I have a question for you. I have the mavic mini and I fly it with propeller protection (because I am new pilot) but everytime I try to fly it with propeller protection it really shakes and I am scared about make it fall from sky. What can I do?
@JohnBaxendale2 күн бұрын
Take off the propeller protection, get DJI Care refresh and stop worrying! Prop protectors will actually invalidate your DJI warranty too, so don't use them!
@dronewilder52342 күн бұрын
The prop guards shouldn’t make it shake. Have you checked that the props aren’t damaged? A little bit of movement of the drone - especially with a bit of wind is absolutely normal however

With the mini 3pro I've gotten 6367ft until I had to return I had 6 % battery when I had about 50ft to back that scared me I attempted it again with my mini 4 pro I got around 7000ft and I had almost 4% battery left and had ankther 60 ft to travel before i landed both tests were done in the summer so it wasnt windy windy i recokon the mini 4 would make it half way and already be at 45 50% 😅I'm impressed with that but the air 3s just makes these smaller drones look like paper weights aha 😂

Thanks!, Probably helps that I don’t have Dji in my pockets 😜. The air3s does have a few flaws - bitrate, moire, flickering highlights and that obstacle avoidance wobble but I’m confident most if not all those issues can be fixed or improved with firmware upgrades. The footage it captured of the sunset on the return leg was stunning in my opinion.
