i got the Mini last Aug after 2 months i flew my Mini 3 pro and had a hard time bringing it down so i sent it to dji, and they sent me another one that the drone did not want to turn on so i sent it back to DJI they sent me another one after 3 weeks my screen froze so i had to send it back to Dji yes after a short flight I lost connection 4 times not only that the video on the camera has a jello effect when you shoot when i sent my drone in DJI keep on sending me to refurbish drones it's not even a year so i called Dji and i used my 2 year warranty they charged me 65 dollars four a new drone, don't buy it the mini 2 is ten times better than the mini 3 pro its garbage there is no reason why i should have to pay for a second drone they should give me a new one when i first brought it , lesson learned when they come out with a new drone wait a year and dont always belive the Hype that they put out shame on you Dji
I love the tilt-shift. I'd love to make an animated GIF with the circular version with one revolution so it cleanly appears to circle forever. I think it could make a great logo on a construction company's website.
Love the Tilt-shift videos! I did a bunch from my hotel rooms in New York, Copenhagen, and Chicago with my Sony camera where I had some great views of parks and busy areas of the cities. Yours we better! ha!
Russ, I’m a regular follower of your channel and I have the following question. I need some clarity and or an explanation on the use of “Course Lock” in the hyperlapse mode. (I get confused easily.) Per the Manual: Follow the steps below to use Course Lock. 1. Set the interval time, video duration, and max speed. The screen displays the number of photos that will be taken and the shooting duration. 2. Set a flight direction. 3. If applicable, drag-select a subject. Use the gimbal dial and yaw stick to adjust the frame. 4. Tap the shutter/record button to begin. Move the pitch stick and roll stick to control the horizontal flight speed and briefly alter the aircraft orientation. Move the throttle stick to control the vertical flight speed. My question is: how far will the course lock flight go? Is the length of the flight determined by the shooting duration? Thanks...
I've done a few tilt shift photos over the years, but I never thought about a tilt shift video. Interesting video, and very creative. Thanks for sharing Russ.
Hi, In reaction on your questions: 1. No connection errors, but 2. Boy it gets hot. Dont have an ecoflow :) Keep up producing these nice instructive video's. brdi
Russ, here is what I did after watching your video. Not trying to piggyback you, I just didn't know a better way to share it with you, thank you. I rather enjoy your channel.
Looks awesome thank you for the tip I love making a Hyper lapses videos. I wrote to DJI and the two second interval is coming in a firmware update soon.
Ye Sir! i often have signal drops and range issues with my Mini 3 Pro, even though i systematically perform all the updates, each time hoping it will improve...
got mine a couple days ago... it was nice out that day, but by the time i got it all charged up and updated I didn't have much time to play... and its been raining ever since.... I see it's about to break here, hopefully it'll be in time for sunset :D
Yes, I've had both of those problems, it's good to know I'm not the only one. Also when mine does the return to home function it doesn't return to home. Itt just finds a clear spot and lands. it's annoying, but when it's working it fun as heck
This was very fun and instructive. But it seems very complicated to me. I will certainly try it out and look forward to reporting on the results. You're very informative and fun to follow and watch to see if I can achieve your results. Thanks for your excellent content.
I’ve only had my mini 3 pro for a week. I am hopeful that with time they will be able to improve the connection between drone and controller. I must say I have been a bit disappointed with range and stability of connection. I’ve had it return home when it should have stayed connected. Hopefully future firmware updates will help us out.
Hi John, I have my Mini 3 Pro ordered, still not shipped, in your opinion, do you think it's still best to get the M3P, or should I go with a Air2S? I've been debating this over and over...and these connection issues have me worried
@@iAaronts I really am confident that within the next month or so we’ll see big improvement in our mini 3 pro connection. I’m still glad to have purchased this drone
The little aircraft doesn't have a cooling fan. I got a little 5 inch USB-A powered fan that goes into my Bluetti (an Ecoflow competitor) and gives me the ability to run the aircraft on the ground as long as I want. Even on low it stays cool but medium is perfect. It just goes into my ground service equipment box.
Also, I am starting to use the Auto-ISO function more. Since we don't have control of the aperture in this camera, we are limited to changing shutter speed or ISO/sensitivity. In normal cameras, there is an aperture/f stop setting we can modify to have a "trifecta" of options to get whatever look you want. But with the M3P, changing aperture is crippled. So we are already at a disadvantage with making video or photos. Fortunately, antinoise software in post is very good these days, and sensor noise levels are actually quite low and you can generally raise the ISO/sensitivity well beyond what you normally would, without noticeable noise. Everyone acts like they are afraid to raise the ISO past 100, but the camera is totally functional way up into 800 ISO without much noise. You could safely go beyond that. Cameras are just that good now. But, the REASON to choose to add noise in darker areas, is to keep the same shutter speed going. In a hyperlapse, you want the same shutter speed the entire length of the video. It isn't something you want to vary with brightness levels, which is what would happen in auto-shutter speed mode. So I am quite happy with the new priority modes. I wish aperture weren't crippled. That would be an extra several hundred, right? To have them not purposefully cripple the aperture capability?
Exploration is key. Especially with cameras and drones. Fiddle with settings. Fiddle with modes. Fiddle with concepts. Before you know it, you have the technical know-how to actually bring your artistic visions to life. So tinker, explore, and fiddle away.
The weak signal is something about registering with the European signal system and not the US one. EC instead if FCC or something? You can tell by looking at the frequency connection in the satellite graph I saw a video about it.
I've done tilt shift effect on my drone photos every now and then (when you have a suitable subject). As I mainly use the Drone for photography and not video, have to try it out with some clips soon too
Hi Russ, I’ve had the same problem with overheating, but with my mini 2 when you leave it sitting too long. A simple fix I’ve been using with success is using a 100mm PC fan sitting the drone on top of it and have the fan blowing air into the drone. Just make sure you have guards over the blades of the fan…
It would be cool to save the flight mission and repeat this recording every week or so... then combine the shots and crossfade between the weeks to get a real extreme time lapse... from start of the project to finish!
You cant do hyperlapses on the mini 2. Is there interval photos? Then you can take photos and stitch them together in post. And its gonna be a static hyperlapse since the mini 2 dont have waypoints
nice job! I did this already with normal videos of my Mini1. With my current Mini3pro, I have no major signal issues, only when flying far beyond VLOS. BTW, your DJI mic sound was not bad, although you aligned the mic capsule to the right side, it should look upwards. Greetings from Germany, Uwe

Pretty cool stuff Russ. Thanks for another great video.
Another good video Russ. Enjoy your vacation hope you have a great time with your family.
Thanks for the inspiration AGAIN, Russ! Have a great vacation!

Really nice ways to make fun video. Thanks for the discovery of that.
This is such an AWESOME idea!! There's an AMAZON distribution center currently being built nearby and this would be the perfect spot.
Thank you for sharing the DJI Mini 3 Pro hyperlapse video tutorial. I truly enjoyed watching it. 👍
Dude that is one of the coolest things I have seen. Definitely gonna try it. Very cool have a great vacation.
I've done a few tilt shift photos over the years, but I never thought about a tilt shift video. Interesting video, and very creative. Thanks for sharing Russ.
Love love love tilt shift! This is an awesome application of it!
Hi,
In reaction on your questions:
1. No connection errors, but
2. Boy it gets hot. Dont have an ecoflow :)
Keep up producing these nice instructive video's.

Play time with Russ! Cool stuff.
Love your videos and yes i've lost signal three times in close proximity,very frustrating i hope dji sort it
Russ, here is what I did after watching your video. Not trying to piggyback you, I just didn't know a better way to share it with you, thank you. I rather enjoy your channel.

I have one of those small battery powered fans I use at the beach I've been using to keep it cool when I'm out droning
Looks awesome thank you for the tip I love making a Hyper lapses videos. I wrote to DJI and the two second interval is coming in a firmware update soon.
Awesome! It initially had it but then it went away with the latest firmware
Looks fun, Russ. Cheers from Wisconsin.
Hi, love the videos 👍🏻 do you have a link to the tilt shift app you used. Thanks- Wayne
Fun & creative ! Thanks for the video.
Love this! I’ve seen tilt shift but didn’t know anything about it. Thanks and safe travels!
Fun! Gotta try this now!
Great little video. Thanks. I would love to see the whole circle/orbit one…
excellent....thank you
Always inspired! I love this channel
Ye Sir! i often have signal drops and range issues with my Mini 3 Pro, even though i systematically perform all the updates, each time hoping it will improve...
Enjoy your vacation! I just got my Mini Pro 3 today. Can't wait for the rain to stop so I can go try out the new (to me) features like Hyperlapse.
got mine a couple days ago... it was nice out that day, but by the time i got it all charged up and updated I didn't have much time to play... and its been raining ever since.... I see it's about to break here, hopefully it'll be in time for sunset :D
I personally think tilt shift videos and photos are awesome! Enjoy the vacation.
Yes, I've had both of those problems, it's good to know I'm not the only one. Also when mine does the return to home function it doesn't return to home. Itt just finds a clear spot and lands. it's annoying, but when it's working it fun as heck
Russ, your sponsor ads are the BEST!!! As always, brilliant video. Thanks for sharing. Hey from Australia.
Ha! Thanks!
Great video, short and useful. Love tilt shift effect as well.
I always wondered what that effect was! Now I know! I’m gonna try this! Thank you!
I love it! The result is adorable 😍
Awesome video. I haven't seen many videos that explained the hyperlapse as well as you did. I'll have to try the tiltshift effect as well. Thumbs up👍
That is the coolest app ever
I've added the tilt-shift effect to photos but never video. That is really neat. Thank you for posting this.
This was very fun and instructive. But it seems very complicated to me. I will certainly try it out and look forward to reporting on the results. You're very informative and fun to follow and watch to see if I can achieve your results. Thanks for your excellent content.
Could you do a simple video on showing how to do 3d and 2d mapping using a drone such as the mini 3 Pro?

Great instructions and great video! I love how the final videos turned out!
Thank you for the tutorial, did you used a ND filter and if you did, which nunber? 👍🏼
No need for an ND filter for this kind of thing. It’s just taking photos and a slow shutter speed is not necessary.
The little aircraft doesn't have a cooling fan. I got a little 5 inch USB-A powered fan that goes into my Bluetti (an Ecoflow competitor) and gives me the ability to run the aircraft on the ground as long as I want. Even on low it stays cool but medium is perfect. It just goes into my ground service equipment box.
Another great video Ross. Learnt I lot. Can’t wait to try it 👍
Nice tips. Thanks for sharing.
That was really cool. I've always wanted to do something with tilt shift.
Great idea, thanks for sharing!
Looks Awesome! Nice tips Thanks!
Cool tips, many thanks! 😎
Great video, gives me something else yo try, take care
Which app did you use none I see look like the one you are using?

Just watch the overheating. Otherwise you might end up fiddling while dRone burns 🔥 😉 🤣 😜
Another excellent tutorial video!!
Thanks!
Mini 4 pro also motors get hot when you are in ideal mode and downloading software.
Very helpful!
great video., what are other good free video editing software aids that you recomend?? thanks
Great video can someone tell which platform tilt shift video app is on???
I as well was had a problem with a lost signal while at a short distance.
Hi love your videos, im from iceland btw
The weak signal is something about registering with the European signal system and not the US one. EC instead if FCC or something? You can tell by looking at the frequency connection in the satellite graph I saw a video about it.
Nice one👍🏴
Cool video. I have the same issue with my Mini 3 pro losing signal suddenly and returning home. My mini 2 I can fly the same path with no issues.
As a construction worker, this is so damn cool.
Love your videos, can you do this with the DJI Mini 2, I've always wanted to make a tilt shift video after seeing them do it in movies and TV
I've done tilt shift effect on my drone photos every now and then (when you have a suitable subject). As I mainly use the Drone for photography and not video, have to try it out with some clips soon too
Nice video 😊 , liked & subscribed, thanks for sharing ‼️
Looked cool good work 👍👍✌️
Nice video.
Question : Can you do a hyperlapse with a spotlight tracking at the same time?
Not sure if you ever found out, but yes you can. Source: I did this morning
That looks cool!
Ya was fun and yes it looks like toys nice and fun
I love it!
Nice one!
Super, thank you for sharing 😎🤟🏼🤝

I thinks its awesome. That app you mentioned was it only for apple? I cant find it on the google playstore.
Enjoy your vacation.
Yes, I have had that issue on sudden return home with Mini 2. Seems to be a Fly app/remote controller issue, not a Mini 3 issue.
Thanks for the video
I have not had the RTH problem. First I heard of it . Been flying about 4 days now.
Very cool
It would be cool to save the flight mission and repeat this recording every week or so... then combine the shots and crossfade between the weeks to get a real extreme time lapse... from start of the project to finish!
Can this be done on mini2? I use android dji fly app. But don't see the options you showed? As always you make great videos.
You cant do hyperlapses on the mini 2. Is there interval photos? Then you can take photos and stitch them together in post. And its gonna be a static hyperlapse since the mini 2 dont have waypoints
Hey! Is there a way to set the last waypoint as the starting point? I want to create a route that goes between two points but ends back at waypoint 1.
Yes, when setting your hyperlapse up based on waypoints, the first option is "Normal Sequence". Tap that option to change it to Reverse Sequence
Looks good
Will this work with Mavic 3? ShiftTilt does look cool and I’m sure my grandkids would really get a kick out of it. Thanks for a cool tip.
great video - how do i use the quick transfer app? What is the name of the app in the play store? There are so many DJI apps to choose from.
There’s nothing like a well practised Segway
Ha!
nice job! I did this already with normal videos of my Mini1. With my current Mini3pro, I have no major signal issues, only when flying far beyond VLOS. BTW, your DJI mic sound was not bad, although you aligned the mic capsule to the right side, it should look upwards. Greetings from Germany, Uwe
Very cool. Although I'm very lost! Lol
You need to set the WB manual as well, each time the camera reads the light it adjusts the WB meaning the temp will variate…
Good video.... any Range Issues with the Mini3? I have heard some people are having range problems.
I haven't seen this app before. Is it backward compatible? I have the Mavic 2 Pro. I like that the interface does not look as busy as DJI Go.
Thank you that was great 👍
Do you have the link for the tilt shift video app, please
