DJI Mini 3 Pro | Huge Updates to The Tiny Drone

[@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.

[@clickphotography9422]

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.

[@WilliamAiken]

1:11 the level of creativity in this video, smashed that like button!

[@followtheboat]

That strong wind/gusts test was impressive for something so light.

[@YourDriverMike]

Broo not the DJI backroom scene 😂😂😂

[@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.

[@KingFredrickVI]

I was here when the title was "2206 DJI v27" lol

[@aubtinthepro]

lol

[@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?

[@Keelanfilms]

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!

[@thinkello]

Do you wanna sell your Air2s? If yes, how much?

[@ottawafromabove]

@@thinkello Want to buy mine? Ottawa based.

[@foglebr]

Here earlier from the “2206 DJIv27” notification! 😉 The back room is scary, funny, but still scary! Ohh wow lol. 😂 I had no idea until the credits that you were flying the drone, which is smart because then no one else can feel guilty if you did get cut from the “interrogation”.

[@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]

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.

[@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 😎
