It goes on presale on April 22 and you get an extra battery as a bonus. PS. Looks like a great deal but from my experience better to wait for a few HONEST reviews before buying. That way you will be able to avoid wasting $300.
@@RobinDrones Looking forward to your review. This will be fimi's third try at a mini. I hope the new camera will record with a more consistent bitrate and frame rate. Also hope a new gimbal solved the tilted horizon issue.
@@RobinDrones Just like to say went flying with the fimi V2 today put it in sports mode and it must be the fastest small drone on the market it's like a racing drone fimi 3 will be Awesome.
Thanks Robin a well put together in depth review it looks a very interesting drone can’t wait to see it in the air and showing us all the bells and whistles.
Hi, so now that you've had the Potensic and Fimi for a few months now, do you still think that the Fimi comes out on top? That is, is what Fimi claims, true?
Yes, in my opinion, the Fimi is better than the Potensic Atom. But the Potensic is still a very good drone. But the Fimi, Has a larger sensor. More features. Better image.
@@RobinDrones Thanks for your thoughts. I ended returning my Fimi Mini 3 as it had a dead pixel and Fimi support, well, nothing good can be said about them. They refused to honour the warranty. I still liked the drone but I was planning on using it commercially. I am hoping that the Atom 2 comes out soon. I checked the IFA in Berlin as per your other vid but there were no announcements regarding Atom 2. I may still get another FM3 as I now have an extra 3100mAH battery as a paper weight but will understand that there's zero warranty or support.
If you go to the link you provided, no matter what you choose, the price stays the same (?). This is a very good alternative, but we'll wait for your review and flight videos. If you fly it out over the farmland as you did with the mini 2 SE, it'll be good to see if it can give the range that one showed. Please see if it will do decent panoramic shots. Of course, the app is what makes or breaks these.
At the risk of sounding silly I wonder whether the colour will make it easier to see at distance which would translate to being able to go further on line of sight flying. Interesting package but no charging hub. Maybe that doesn’t matter to some.
Yes, I actually like the colour. Surely, it will be easier to see, and like you said, being able to fly out a little bit further 😀 I actually don't mind that there isn't a charging hub as it brings down the price and is less to carry about, but yeah, it would be nice if they had the option.👍
@@RobinDrones That’s a fair point Robin about costs. Right now The Mini 2SE special Costco bundle can be had for a hair under $390 CAD. The package includes a second battery and the DJI bag with the see-through drone carrying pocket on the outside. DJI must be looking to replace that one soon based on the Costco pricing. It’s not showing as a sale price and they aren’t many of the Costco warehouses any longer.
There is a new mini 2 se coming out with a different chip to allow 4k recording, apparently 🤔. It must be true as that is why they are discounting the prices 😉
Mini 4 night to me looks better, but it's not the same price as this is it. Always nice to have other options for drones so will wait for some real reviews of this before looking again at it.
Yes, it would be good to have one included but not a deal breaker for me as the batteries have usb c built in, so can charge them outside of the drone.
Yes, who knows what they do with our data. But this day and age, anything with a data connection could be spying on us. I try not to worry about it....
@@RobinDrones it should of shipped today but Ali-express cancelled my order I'm in the process of refunding me after waiting on backorder for 20 days. I'm going to wait until it comes on Amazon.
best thing about fimi is how they never change their products chassis unlike dji
Makes sense. Why change something that works well..
@@RobinDrones because greed, dji cant sells new accessory if the old one still works

Thanks for the info 👍
Well, I'm definitely going to get it because I want to do my own Honest review 😃
@@RobinDrones Looking forward to your review. This will be fimi's third try at a mini. I hope the new camera will record with a more consistent bitrate and frame rate. Also hope a new gimbal solved the tilted horizon issue.
I pree ordered this I have the V2 and that's a good drone it's a very fast drone with a great camera.Thanks for video.
I'm looking forward to getting the fimi mini 3.
I've never owned a Fimi drone.
On paper, this drone is awesome for the price 👌
@@RobinDrones I think you will love it be nice to see a review to.Thanks.
@@RobinDrones Just like to say went flying with the fimi V2 today put it in sports mode and it must be the fastest small drone on the market it's like a racing drone fimi 3 will be Awesome.
I think it is the fastest sub 250g, not including fpvs.
40mph max on the mini 3, apparently!
@@RobinDronesYes really looking forward to flying the mini 3 it's on the way .
Thanks Robin a well put together in depth review it looks a very interesting drone can’t wait to see it in the air and showing us all the bells and whistles.
Yep I can't wait to try it 😀

But its hover improved.? Stay tuned.. And battery time the same?
I will let you know when I get it 😀
@@RobinDrones stay tuned for more updates... Let's hope the drone won't need 50 of them
Battery time !!!

I tried the link I put in the video, and the price is changing on my end. Still out of stock, though.
I will give it a good test when I get it. 👍

Hi there! Please could you do a video comparing Fimi x8 Mini version 2 to the Fimi 3?
This will be my first Fimi, so unfortunately, I can't compare it to the v2 as I have limited funds to buy both. 🙄
Mini 4 night to me looks better, but it's not the same price as this is it. Always nice to have other options for drones so will wait for some real reviews of this before looking again at it.
Yeh, on paper, the mini 4 pro should be better at night due to the bigger sensor. But on that video, the Fimi did look impressive 👀
Have you received your mini 3 yet pal?
No, not yet it's in the UK now, though, so hopefully, I'll get it before this weekend 😀
@@RobinDrones Looking forward to the review 👍🏼
I think it was delivered today 😁
Mine is on backorder with Aliexpress, should have it by mid-May
Im still waiting to order mine...
Link?
@@RobinDrones have you managed to order
@@jorgezambratube I will try and find the link
No, not yet. I kind of want to buy it from the Fimi website or Amazon if they come available.
Boa noite meu amigo 👦 fimi x8 mini 3 vai melhorar muito, like garantido.
Hopefully, you have the Fimi v2, don't you? What's it like?
im struggling anywhere to find out does the FIMI mini 3 drone do a 360 photo sphere like the dji mini 2 /mini 4k can do. Does anyone know ?
Looks good, I was very happy with my fimi A3; untill i tore the gimbal ribbon cable. No parts support for fimi products it seems.
Yeh, I would imagine crash it, and you are on your own to fix it, no parts, I guess, because they aren't as popular as dji drones.
It doesn't look like the fimi mini 3 comes with a charging hub, meaning you will have to charge all the batteries separately
Yes, it would be good to have one included but not a deal breaker for me as the batteries have usb c built in, so can charge them outside of the drone.
I'm surprised they haven't given any out pre-launch for review.
Yeh I know. Surely, it would make sense to let some people test it and post reviews on TH-cam.
I think the colour orange is good for birds attacking it they don't like the colour orange
Yes, that's a very good point!
There are two companies i wouldn't trust with my data. DJI and Xiaomi.
Yes, who knows what they do with our data. But this day and age, anything with a data connection could be spying on us. I try not to worry about it....
