Featuring obstacle avoidance, a camera capable of 48MP RAW stills, and a vertically rotating gimbal, DJI Mini 3 Pro redefines what it means to fly Mini.
Oh, and yes, it still weighs less than 249g.

If you tap the map on the left corner it shows a line directly where you are to it’s location.
Omg exactly!!! Like duhhh !
its*
Mine always has a big "H" for home lol
The video was just for views and to show rth
Drone decided to go one a walk-about....errr fly-about
Still better video quality than 99% of security CCTVs
Happened to me night time twice. But I used gps instead to bring it over me and the lower down. Just because I don’t trust come home thing.
@@AndyDeiutrust me the drone flies itself wayyy better than you do
@@DronePathyeah
lies. Every time I press return to home it doesn't land where home is clearly set. Mine almost landed in a tree. Now I just manually bring it back @@DronePath
The map allows you to see the flight patterns and you can use it to reverse your drone back home and down to manually land.
How
@@walletphonekeys if the map isn't automatically shown on the bottom left corner of your screen, then you'll never to enable it. Upon enabling it, you tap the map and it will show you the distance flown and location. Use that line to figure out how to return to the point of origin. You can do this with the proprietary remote or your phone or tablet. Best with a phone (over tablet) as you can mount it onto your DJI controller. A tablet has a bigger screen for viewing but recommended only if you have someone with you. The more premium version of the DJI controller (with a built-in screen) eliminates the need for your phone or 2nd device; however, it is great when filming and you need it to show it externally where you don't have multiple people literally looking over the operator's shoulder.
This gave me “where tf have you been boy?!” Type of energy 😅
I've always thought that line-of-sight rule is silly. I already can't see my drone when is up there barely 400 ft away.
Yup and why give a drone up to a 6 mile range and then set line of site rules. 🤦♂️
I think they mean line of sight like there are no obstructions hindering your view, not that you can actually see the drone, I’m not sure tho.
@@zuzmw What view tho, when you can't even see the drone.
@@h.seanhsu8965 I think it just means that there are no objects in between you and the drone that would block your view if the drone was bigger and you could see it from 6 miles
@@zuzmw it’s actually that you can see it
The panic you feel when you see it just going up and up
Yep I bought a cheap drone couple weeks ago and the first lift off once I arose above the roof line of my house it just started flying up and away I couldn't believe the range was that short it disappeared forever so my next drone will be the mini 3 pro
(Scratch that now the mini 4 pro lol)
Man I'm glad I'm not the only one with bad eyes that loses track of a drone.
@@5yearsout same exact thing happened during my maiden voyage. Hit the HOME button. What a relief. The DJI 3 is awesome. Camera is unbeatable, so clear.
It stops my heart for a second every time when I can’t find it in the sky.
@@coyotegraysr exactly I have the same feeling 😁
That can be a scary feeling losing site of your drone. Especially in a highly populated city with tall buildings
I lost mine last week filmon the stars and spinning in a circle and it took off and tried to return to home point because it was critical low battery but it could not figure out where homepointe was it was Pitch black. Ended up in a subdivision and a half a mile away I'm not kidding I use the find my drone on the RC controller and drove right to it got out of my car walked in someone's yard and it was right there in the Tallgrass I could not believe it thank goodness.
lol nice
Had my dji mini pro 3 for a week its just awesome just love it
I think the FAA will have some thoughts about that cloud ceiling flight
He’s flying at 367 feet. He should be flying right below 400 feet, with the building’s height counted in.
@@johnathanruiz-pineda9610 Sure, on a clear day. But he also needs to be 500ft below cloud coverage.
You are correct, however there is no way we can determine how much distance between the drones and the clouds from the view provided. I can speculate that the drone wasn’t flying within the clouds, as the video image was still clear on the remote as the drone passed over into view. There is probably a violation on LOS, but I am unaware of the pilots certifications, which I could assume he has a Part 107 certificate if he’s making money off his content, or if he possess a waiver for LOS.
@@jacoblambcinema it’s not the same as imc rules in aviation
People actually care about those rules ?? 😂😂😂
This happens to me all the time. The small form factor with that range makes it really easy to lose track of, especially when you’re trying to watch the camera feed as well. If it’s possible to fly with a spotter, it always makes it much easier. So long as you know where your home point is and have your return height set right, and you’re keeping an eye on your battery life, you’ll probably be fine.
I always notify the authorities and bring two spotters when I fly.
@@emilnilsson4320 that seems excessive if there’s not an online platform in place to accept notifications of that kind. Especially if you’re flying a sub-250g drone. If everyone flying a mavic mini did that, it doesn’t seem sustainable.
@@drworm77 I have the mini 3 pro, but I want to be safe so it's nothing wrong in taking some extra steps
The scariest moment is when the drone is so far that it starts loosing signal from your RC
I KNOW RIIIGHT??!
ALSO, when hitting RTH and it disregards your command and starts ascending higher then your set altitude for reasons unknown going up and up and……
And what if the RTH altitude is locked at 15m? What then?😂
And accompanied with a low battery warning
@@gbrian9090 RTFM!
It happens but I wouldn't go posting it on social media. FAA says you have to maintain VLOS at all times. Oh yeah and learn to use the map.
Exactly this
Not only that but u gotta 500 feet below the clouds
👏
Correct
The VLOS requirement needs to be updated ASAP. It is more in line with old dummy drones. Newest drones with GPS, remote ID, anti collision, know and report better where they are than any visual estimation of their position. In addition the Mini 3 is practically the weight of a bird, doesn't pose any threat and because of its size it is basically invisible a few feet away. So it is penalized for its harmless size? So the VLOS law would rather have you fly a huge drone so you can see it from a longer distance? I think it should be the opposite. If the drone is smaller and harmless and has all the GPS tech onboard then remove superfluous fly restrictions.
Just make sure you know where home point is set and update it if you're moving around
True i one day i make mistake with home point drone landed in wrong place in Clifs of moher 1200e gone haha
I just bought this drone, do you have to set a home location? I thought it had gps?
@@gringling57it will automatically set the home point once you take off (as long as you have enough gps) but you can manually set the home point if you want to
I thought home was the controller's location?
@@hmsailor6133 nope, you can update it in settings tho to drone location or controller
Best feeling when you look up and finally see her.
there is no problem. As soon as the drone first ascends, it takes a homecoming position. Let it fly next to you for 15-20 seconds on the first ascent. then fly.
He knows
Switch on the compass and you always know where your drone is
But when it says the home point have been recorded. Then you should be fine if you're stationary
great demo. don't forget to set a safe elevation for the return home.
I’m about to get one now I’ve seen enough lol
😂😂 go for it there nice man 😅
Get some strobe lights, I have 1 on my mini2 and still under weight
Nicely done again Andrew Big Tums Up . Cheers
imagine forgetting to set the return home height
What if you dont
Le drone : i have no home 🤣
I got a 'red baron' skin for my air2s it definitely helps to find it compared to a grey sky coloured drone lol
if you have the DJI RC, you can also hold that H/|| button next to the speed controller instead of tapping the screen, same thing
Such a great feature. Love this Lil drone
I wouldn't post a video showing you lost visual line of sight. It also doesn't appear to be landing anywhere near you
Funnily enough the CAA guidance I've read up to now talks about *line* of sight but isn't clear that you must literally keep it in unaided view. I have a flight I want to do that covers 4.5km but would put the drone beyond the range of my vision, but now I suppose that's not allowed.
You know you can mute the return to home beeping right? Just swipe down from the top, sand way you adjust brightness, wifi, etc.... just tap the "mute" button and no more annoying beeping until you need it, then just turn it back on. 😊
Welcome home little guy. Gray day makes it harder too. So far so good for me
It is the safest and wise way to bring it back
Just ordered one. Big upgrade from original mini
I have the Air 2. That's just one of the great things to have.
Scary feeling 😎🤝
Just got my Mini 3 Pro a few days ago, thing is awesome. Nowadays I only fly FPV but I figured I needed at least one good camera drone. Highly recommend! Prime day deal ftw
This has happened to me so many times at night. Thank you dji
Still loves old dji remote with physics rth button
I've had the same problem. Love this drone
That’s why I love and have their drones but it should be set to RTH when the battery is getting low. I don’t let mine get too low just in case the wind picks up and then the blades are gonna have to work harder and burn more juice.
You can never escape dji.
Line Of Sight just entered the chat 😂
Legit my biggest fear when flying or the wind just takes it and it can't come back lol
mine is it tipping over... my phantom 4 always tips over and then catches itself gives me a heart attack every time
Return to home never gets old…
I bought this drone last month it has been a blast every day.
Thank god for that feature. I do it all the time
Always maintain VLOS and make sure you have enough satellites, the homepoint is set correctly.
heard landing and the drone was still in the air 😂
I lost mine m3p many times even sometimes in the mountains being 2-3kms and connection lost always came back like a good boy
Should sell drone biscuits. Good boy!
I thought I had an insect 🐛 on my screen. Turns out it was the drone in the sky 😅
Scary first time today, I thought the battery was not enough to return, it landed 100 meters from the starting point with 9% battery, but safe. A great drone the mini 3 pro.
WOOOOOOW I NEVER KNEW MY VERY EXPENSIVE DRONE COULD DO THIS AFTER 3 YEARS DAMN
Impossible to fly this drone more than 30 meters without losing visual, learn how to use the map and the home button, ensure the home point is updated, more than 13 gps satellites are acquired and you should be absolutely fine.
That's why I love my M3...it's way bigger than the Mini3Pro and because of its dark grey shell is easy to spot when against white clouds. The only time I never fly so far away is when I have my anti-collision light on it and I can see it so not hundreds of feet in the air like that. If I'm going be 200 - 300 ft up I stop once it's a little black speck in the sky and go no further
I kind of wish they’d make color options because I sure would get a bright orange one or green one
That is why always you have to see from where you are flying your drone
The drone: waahhh wahhhh im so lonely, can you bring me home plssss,
Mavic 3 pro: yes i will show you
2 years flying drone, never have i ' Lost ' my drone as i can easily see it on my map x.x
I just got one of this on steal, and I'm loving it so far. What a fantastic drone. I still have a lot to learn but so far so good.
absolutely the lexus of drones. I still have my spark only lost it once in tahiti when flying next to the waterfall with no gps
A lot of moisture in those clouds. I probably wouldn’t run my drone through that….
I fly my mini 3 pro 3+ miles daily. Always lost to the heavens... Beast of a craft!
That's what I like about my drones. It can see you but you can't see it. I can't tell you how many times this feature has saved me. I have two air 2s and a air2s. The only reason I got the a2s is because of the zoom and it's worth it.
it literally has a map
Yes and the map lead me to a 50 foot tree where my probely is to this day.
@@CleoCoal money gone like that? Because I lost my toy drone and I was upset lol, so imagine a more pro drone
Tried that with my 3pro as it was flying through a cloud and I could not see the starting point/myself via camera. Due to the cloud being recognized as object (like really thick smoke as well I believe), RTH failed. Thought I’d lose it. Fortunately there was a very small hole in the cloud so I could see some structure and navigated there. Took a pic of the controller with my smartphone to show locals where that hut might be. 5min later I had the drone back, just a pair of props damaged.
And yes the map is a great feature, but not with the DJI RC where you have to download each region you want to fly in beforehand (now I know). This works way better with a regular controller / smartphone attached.
bro still has it in sport mode
A good visual aid is to turn on the auxiliary light on the bottom of the craft. I programmed the bottom button (I think D1?) on the left hand.
If for whatever reason, you lost briefly sight, because of clouds, or looking at your screen... a simple click of the button and you quickly can see it in the sky.
Especially in cases where you do not have a drone observer with you.
not all drones have an aux light on the bottom of the drone
@nolan Correct! Before I used the aux light, I had a set of Firehouse positioning lights velcroed to the bottom and top.
This just flashes continuously, and you can identify your drone constantly. Those are bright during the day, too!
Technically you broke the rules as you lost line of sight. But I'm sure you really knew where it was 😂
My man had no care to use the blue line that leads to the home point on gps
120 meters up is visible but not really when you go over 200 meters away.
as dji drone flyer you need to learn how to fly your drone and learn the flight laws in your country
Amen brother- thank you for pointing this out- I’m so sick & tired of irresponsible ppl making it harder for everyone - especially us licensed pro pilots who earn a living following rules - UGH
@@jeffchristianson-ziebell7727 yeah i am in the UK and stick to the rules i am licensed and insured people just spoil it for the rest of the hobbyist
UGH he said. Lmao
He is in Canada. Transport Canada makes the rules here, and they are far less restrictive than the FAA when it comes to drones under 250g. LOS is only a recommendation for drones under 250g. He is not breaking any laws.
Smile more, less ugh. Let them do whatever they want. Police drones will chase down illegal drones. :D
yeah i know that return to home feature. and if you lose your drone in the fields or somewhere you can go to the map look at the flight patterns and track it down you can also activate the beeping sound to find your drone
Having only flown line of sight this is were the sick feelings start.
Happened to me first flight got it back after sweating bucket's, lesson learned don't run b4 you can walk , honestly read up watch as many videos as you can more new drone owners like me just hook up and go , just be careful and happy flying 🙏
Discovered warm water 😂
It's been doing that for years. You can also tap the map and show a line straight to the drone
astronaut sent the drone into orbit
move that camera so fast that we couldnt even see that black blip
Love it like I love my mini 2
So in order for it to come home does it need to be on a flat surface b4 it takes off.
Dose that go home feature work on the dji mini 3
that’s really cool but u can literally the see what the drone sees so can’t u just find where you are by looking at the buildings 😂
He thought he was free 🤣🤣🤣
Mine blew up after using that
My fimi X8 mini actually leaves a little yeallow dot on the corner telling you the direction your homepoint is
Great when flying in the woods
That technology so useful for every droners
I was studying for the 107 stuff for the commercial license and as I understand line of site... I think that means nothing obstructing the view. I think I read that you can go 3 miles from you. I need to spend all day reading all the stuff for the test to be sure.
Lol that Feature is literally on like every $100 drone and up
Like a bird in the sky controlled by the president
I have one of these drones it's pretty good
The good ol "return to moron" feature.
Good thing the drone landed and got back to saftest!
You were up there!
Lost mine 9450’ away but no problem. Auto return worked fine.
Shucks... my spotter always loses sight of my mini 3pro once it reaches 2km out, and that's even with the binoculars. 😂🤣😂
Man I just love that RTH button ❤😅😂
i thought the drone was a speck of dirt on my screen it was so high up there
You dont turn the sport mode off so the sensors turn back on for the auto land? I've put mine into trees a few times, 5th set of props and had to take the gimble apart and fix it (that wasnt fun at all)
I’ll never forget flying my DJI Phantom 3 at the beach, firstime flying & I hit auto takeoff & never seen it again ….
Just bought one. This is great! I lost 2 drones already
Here’s a tip. Don’t use one touch landing if ur very high above the ground. 1 being cause u don’t know if it’s gonna land on something and 2 because I’ve noticed with many drones it can go crazy and think it’s already landed and it’ll shut its blades off. So if I were like 10,15,20 meters above the ground it would be fine but more than that I wouldn’t use 1 touch landing till I’m that close to the ground
any idea why the first long battery led is green on some videos and red on others?
Happened to me with a Yuneec Q500. Disappeared for 5 minutes and I thought it was gone over the river. All of a sudden, there it was returning on it's own. It's def a butt clenching moment.
