Hey drone brother, can you make a quick video on how to retrieve the flight logs and get them copied to a local computer? I use the DJI RC controller (with the built-in touch screen) with the Mini 3 Pro. I have MSD cards in both devices. Right now I have my controller configured to auto upload my logs to the DJI cloud space but I read they do not let you access them via cloud login. You can only download them to a mobile device. I also use a Windows based PC (not a MAC GUY)
If you're out in the field and you've used up the memory in the drones SD card, have an SD card of a high capacity in your remote and swap them around. It's like a spare that's always with you.
I rule I adhere to with my DSLR cameras is "never close the door on an empty slot". That way I can tell at a glance if the SD card is still plugged into my computer. Unlike my old Mavic Pro, the Mini 3 Pro doesn't have a cover over the slot... and I forget the card at least once a week. I keep a spare card in my shoulder bag specifically for this purpose. Today I had left _that_ one at home too, but I still had a card in my RC so I was good to go...
Thank you for your videos. I have watched many of yours and found them all to be easier to follow and absorb. You explain things very well and I as an older man appreciate your help. Thanks again from a 91 year old gentleman.
Your videos are so informative thank you. Love the pace and the no-nonsense approach. To many other creators take 15 mins to say what they could have done in 3min. Thanks you !
You are indeed awesome. It’s almost like you are a twine of the Dji mini Pro. Just watching you talk abt this with all the knowledges u display is why am buying this before month end.
Matthew, this video is a “keeper”, ALL GREAT TIPS… I’ve used the fan technique for the updates and works great. For added cooling and specially for new users who may take longer to do things, I use a small cold gel-pack under the drone, it works great 👍
Great tips. I purchased a small, four inch rechargeable fan with 3 flexible legs on Amazon. I set my mini 3 on a small cardboard box and point the fan straight on while doing the (never ending) updates. Works great to keep the drone cool.
What a FANTASTIC video i learned so much from this Mattheww. Literally omg. Could you do more of these? you explained such complicated topics so simply. Specifically about how you achieve certain shots like dolly zooom and AE Lock and histogram.
Hey Matthew, I really didn't think I would learn anything but I like your videos so, I tuned in. I have to say, I was still able to learn a few things. I was impressed at the depth you went into. Thanks again for another quality video.
Great vlog, very helpful indeed, I suffer sensory overload when I go to try all this stuff out but I'm slowly getting there thanks to your vlogs. Thanks and very grateful.
Hope it helps and appreciate you taking the time to watch. This is definitely one of my faster videos, but will make a note to slow down a little in the future.
@@TheDroneCreative I really appreciate your comments. There's some brilliant TH-cam tutors out there, but sometimes they go overboard with their knowledge. They need to go into 'teaching' mode sometimes. It gets very frustrating having to stop and rewind videos. Guitar licks....etc. You name it LOL!
Just wanted to thank u Mattheww. Your videos have been great for learning about the 3 pro. I like the way you get right to it and the amount of content you provide... keep up the great work.
Fantastic tutorial, Mattheww. Thank you. I'll be saving this one and referring back to it repeatedly. My first proper flight will be today, and I can't wait!
Great summary. The best tip was the first one, how to put on the camera cover. One more item that you might suggest is how to change the frequency of the transmission. I’m in a city environment now and it does not work on the 2.4. Only on the five. So it is important to know. Great work. Very much appreciated your efficient and to the point comments.
Great & informative vid. 👍 I appreciate your work and as a total noob who is looking to take the plunge into this hobby, info like this is gold. Thxs again and ya've got my sub.
Macro focus, never knew this one. A tip for anyone that wants to use tracking but make sure your in focus. Set up the tracking then put it into manual focus and set it up with peeking on. As the drone will retain that distance so to will you keep in focus and can see it in peeking mode. Good for Vlogs. Thanks.
Great tips, I always enjoy your videos! The tip on the exposure lock and moving the gimbal with your finger on the screen rather than the button which feels unnatural to me just the way you have to move the wheel are my favorite tips so thank you!
can you talk about flying at night , alot of people skim over this and i learned the hard way example "At night : i didnt know when you hit record the Lights on the drone stop flashing: it makes sense due to avoiding leaking light into the recording 2. the drone will not have any obstacle avoidance in whatso ever no matter what setting 3. which is the better way to capture night footages of like downtown areas with bright lights "Auto? or Pro? 4. when doing master shots the drone with only have 30 fps not 24 its a lot more that im finding alot of people who talk about this drone miss
Mattheww Brennan's videos on the min 3 pro are the very best. There is an issue with the mini 3 pro "return to home" function that needs to be addressed. For those of us who plan to use our drone for hikes, walks and other forms of travel, we don't want the drone to return to the take-off point. The solution is to "Update Home Point" frequently. But, I have found this function does not work and the drone will always return to the point of take off. Other mini 3 drone owners have experienced the same problem. No one seems to have an answer. I consulted with the DJI technical help desk frequently and got conflicting answers: (i) you cannot update the home point to the location of the controller, (ii) you can update the home point to the location of the controller, just like the mini 2, (iii) you can update the home point to the location of the controller as long as there is a strong GPS signal and (iv) you can update the home point to the location of the controller, but only if you have a wifi connection through a hot spot on your mobile phone. The latest answer from DJI's senior advisors is that you can update the home point to the location of the controller, but only if you "Update Home Point" twice. I was told by these advisors that DJI is working on a firmware fix that will enable a "Dynamic Home Point" function that will allow the home point to be updated to the controller with just one click on the "Update Home Point," which will automatically switch the home point to the location of the controller. Maybe Mattheww or others can comment on this issue, which is a game changer for those of us who want to use our mini 3 pro for travel. In the meantime, if anyone has a better answer, please contact me at edxceo@aol.com.
A lot of great tips and explanations! Thanks a lot. A more detailed video however on using the focus levels etc would be appreciated since it was a bit too fast in this video
I like your videos. You give way more detailed information, than most of the drone videos I've watched. I'm getting ready to get my 1st drone. You sir are the one helping me figure out witch drone to start with and the different options to up grade down the road. Thanks for the help.
Why do you think DJI does not offer return to remote? Seems like a simple feature to add, and it would avoid having to manually update the home position. I use the drone from my boat, so “return to remote” is much more useful than “return to home.” Maybe you can put in a request for DJI to add that on a future release 😊
I've now dropped the F bomb watching this extremely helpful video wishing I had watched it yesterday before I flew for the first time. Great job and thank you for this. If you can help me find a tutorial on how to do the active trace but the camera in front instead of the back that would be great. Thank you so much again!
Still love these videos I just downloaded wirestock and have a few pictures and videos pending review.....thanks for all the information and insight into the mini 3 pro.
for firmware upgrade cooling, i put the drone on a floor register where my ac is blowing. so if you have floor registers that works well. in the winter i guess just set it outside lol
Thanks, that was excellent. Yes, I indeed picked up some tips, starting from thing number 1. And I'm saving the video for when I'm ready for the other tips. ;) BTW, I just stumbled on the Flight Data Center under "Profiles". In all the Mini 3 Pro videos I've watched over the last couple of months, this was the first time I saw that. I'd like to get your take on using it. And while you're at it, how about telling us what you know about .SRT files. :)

Cracking hints again Matthew - Heading up with the caravan to Ballycastle next weekend and lots of flying planned with my Mini 3 Pro!
Thanks! Enjoy. Make sure to check out Pans Rock bridge with the drone, great wee spot in Ballycastle.
Great tips. I purchased a small, four inch rechargeable fan with 3 flexible legs on Amazon. I set my mini 3 on a small cardboard box and point the fan straight on while doing the (never ending) updates. Works great to keep the drone cool.

Great tips just ordered the Mini 3 pro without the RC but you may or may not know or care but DJI have a different Gimbal cover now for easy install

I agree with you. Return to remote would be a great feature, or an option to update the home point at timed intervals!
If the remote battery goes dead or if the remote disconnects it would be a different issue. Would need both.
I got this drone,I've also got an hubsan zino that has rth via homepoint and where the transmitter is,so why dowsnt dji
exceptional post!
The Dolly Zoom is my favorite. I want to do it so bad
Thanks for the vids!
that propeller holder is very tight, give it a little heat and stretch it until it is perfect and does not damage the propellers
Great tip! Thanks for sharing!

Hi Matthew. Thanks a lot. You´re an excellent drone-Guru to follow.
Thank you - hope this video helped!

Nice! I did lear a few things! Thanks. Subscribed!
Awesome! Happy to hear that. Welcome along!
I got my drone today and your Video helped me
Happy to hear that! Enjoy!
Can you do a video on wirestock and best practices. For example, should I upload 15 second clips or entire videos?
I absolutely can, let me add that to my list of videos to create! Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks for this video, it is very helpful. For ND filters, I recommend Skyreat.
Great, learnt a lot. You showed how to launch out of your hand, have you covered landing in to your hand anywhere as yet?
for firmware upgrade cooling, i put the drone on a floor register where my ac is blowing. so if you have floor registers that works well. in the winter i guess just set it outside lol
