Excellent video, I as taking note of the conformal coating on the ESC and silicone over the solder, this is the forward board that will be hit by rain as it moves when there is rain, good to know the main board is above and while I noticed a little coating it is good to know the water will simply not get up there, all in all I now feel confident that rain will not stop this drone just like the Air 2S which I have taken apart and discovered almost every part of the boards are covered in conformal coating which make these drones pretty good at being water resistant. I have flown in heavy rain the Air 2S around 3km without issue, I would say looking at this drone it would be identical. Thanks again and you saved me so much time in pulling it apart and even though I am an electrical engineer it still isn’t something I would like to do on this tiny drone.
Got the Mini 3 Pro myself, very interesting video, would end up with more screws than I started with, its certainly a big step up from the Mini 2 and enjoying it Thanks @geeksvana for sharing
Amazing video, love these types, just a quick question with the rc remotes I have got 2. Now if I took apart the one is there a way to solder or remove and extend the antennas away from the remote? I want to try get more range. Mini 4k i had the mini 2 but lost it lol
Someone ias going to make a bunch of money with an antenna fix for this controller! wish I had some stock in their comapny for sure. They won't be able to keep the range extenders in stock!
I use a phantom 4 pro and it doesn,t do 10 bit video. Its 60fps mode is ugly due to h264 and a 100 mbps data rate. Obviously being able to stop the larger camera is a big advantage but there are tangible NEW features here. I,m likely to get one just to give me sub 250g flexibility but look forward to comparing image quality with my phantom 4 pro. Thanks for the vid
Check the date... the Mini 3 (non pro) had not launched when they did this. So back then, we just called it the Mini 3... don't that stop you making dumb comments though 😉
I guess Athena circuit board would save a Little white and maybe a lighter metal instead of copper for the wiring with thin insulation off just a thought
Very interesting video 🙂 Mini 3: Is anyone else seeing a large vertical green stripe when they switch from video to photo, on their display? I would post a screen shot but YT doesn't allow links.
@@Geeksvana it I’d have to register a proper drone licence with been over 249g and then can’t fly it in as many places that you can the mini 3. Just wish the controller was better
Well at least after seeing this video I feel some appreciation of the high cost' due to engineering and craftsmanship inside, and for that matter the same can be said for the other DJI Products as well, smart people and quality products!
I'm so glad I got the refresh with mine can't begin to imagine how much a repair would cost going else where lol great video as usual and very interesting to get to look inside I must admit my mini 2 is definitely better on signal which is a bit disappointing but all in all a very good drone 😁👌👍 🇬🇧
After I've seen the insides of the drone, all the more that I appreciated the engineers for their design of the Mini 3 Pro.
Thanks!

Wow nice
A masterpiece of miniaturisation and weight saving design. Very clever people at DJI obviously.
Thank you very much, gentlemen.
Hey Cliff! Thanks for taking the time to comment!
great video those antennas are crying out for modding
Especially since the range is less than the mini 2. Maybe they can make an antenna mod video.

Alientech and/or 4hawks will no doubt come out with kits to fix the antenna problem... Hopefully soon...
My question exactly! How did DJI fit all these parts into the Mini 3 Pro and still made it weigh only 240+ g. Very impressive indeed!

Not enought tequila in the world to get me to try this
😂
Anyone know what the screwdriver size is for the propeller screws?
I'd like to pull mine apart, but it's "putting it back together" bit that I fail at
Its not hard.... sometimes easier to do

It was all thanks to the drone's intelligent design that we get to experience awesome tech-advanced features on such a small drone
I believe that those antennas on RC are LDS (Laser Direct Structuring) antennas.
...and to think 🤔 one day drones will be the size of grasshopps or a bumble 🐝 ! Super content here and thank you for that.
Hi do you have a whats inside Mimi 2 if so were will i fiend in please regards pete
Oh, it is not a single board, there is a square chip like set of pins and connectors that joins another board to the main board, I have photos ;)
The FCC version has far better range using those antennas, it may be they are far less efficient when using European permissible output power…🤔

Excellent 👍🏾
Please tear down the battery, too. Nobody has shown.
That’s the mini 3 pro not mini 3😅

@@Geeksvana I know that but now it’s called the mini 3 pro so that’s what I mean if new beginniners see the title they could get mixed up
@@Geeksvana I did something funny I made my original mini 3 look like the mini 3 pro 😅🤣
Hi Sean. Nobody has mentioned about the "C" rating label on this drone 🤔
I guess Athena circuit board would save a Little white and maybe a lighter metal instead of copper for the wiring with thin insulation off just a thought
Vaaary interesssting...
Hey Lindsay! I thought so too...
@@Geeksvana Last time I was this early, drone prototyping was done with Meccano.
Ahhhh Meccano....
Very interesting video 🙂 Mini 3: Is anyone else seeing a large vertical green stripe when they switch from video to photo, on their display? I would post a screen shot but YT doesn't allow links.
SO SIMPLE! Put tab A in Tab B. Slide tab C into Tab F......
Explains poor range with those antenna
It does seem to doesn't it...
@@Geeksvana I’m half tempted to cancel my mini 3 order and get an air 2s with the smart controller
The Air 2S with is amazing. I would say it is almost perfect.
@@Geeksvana it I’d have to register a proper drone licence with been over 249g and then can’t fly it in as many places that you can the mini 3. Just wish the controller was better
FCC range is great 😃
Oh,Yeah! I think that just battery not yet teardown.
It is like a lobster shell.

Its not hard.
What's bullshit is anything gimbal related could be a fail because of programming
The comments are kind of superfluous while some jerk destroying a drone.
The drone is perfectly fine and was put back together...
