That's the best review for mini 3 base I have met until now. I should add this to the comparison with the Pro version: While the mini 3 Pro overheats when not flying, the mini 3 base does NOT!
I'm still rocking the mini 1 and remember back when I asked if you could include an anemometer at location for your wind tests and you actually did.. One of the reasons I still get excited and smash the like button whenever you post a new video. Lucky to have found your great channel! I wonder if it would fall within your expertise/experience to make a video on how gimbals work :)
Thanks - much appreicated! Even got a new anemometer the other week...mostly cause I can't figure out what happened to my other one. One day it'll show up...
@@Dcrainmaker The theory proven time and time again in our household is, search for something to find something you searched for previously (but almost never what you were searching for) XD
@@samueljohns1437you can just get a mini 3 with the plus battery for this but be aware that they last up to 30-35 mins in real use. You can then position them above the area you are working on to do a hyperlapse If you have several batteries you can do more runs. Good luck
Looks like perfect companion for air2s, in my scenario of skiing videos, I can carry this in the pocket and use it for selfy style shoots, air2s for more quality mountain landscapes.
Indeed! Really glad DJI has shifted to that model over the last year. So much better. Also glad they've standardized on three controllers: Good, better, best.
I'm actually a low key fan of the RC-N1: range is super good, buttons are nice and enough, also you can connect to internet and save maps/photos MUCH faster and unlock Geo zone faster With the right phone you can fly in any brightness. Galaxy s10e works just fine with it
Huh, that's cool! I'm always amazed by the variety of ships coming in and out of the port when I film. An Internet cable layer one time, some space thingy another time, plus all the 'regular' stuff. And you figure I only go there once every few months for an hour. Would be a blast to be one of those houses/apartments overlooking the canal out.
I just ordered the mini 3 to help the quality of my youtube videos. It will be my first drone. Hopefully I don't regret not getting the pro with the obstacle avoiding. Great review! I'm anxious for mine to arrive!
Thinking about trying out a first drone. Looked at the Neo and the 4K but I think I’m going with the mini 3. Just came across your video and found it very helpful. More convinced now of the mini 3. Thanks.
I HAVE to have a drone that has a range of at least 3 miles, hands down. Also, FYI, right now Best Buy has the Mini 3 WITH DJIRC for $609! That’s insane!
The drill: notification of Ray reviewing anything, the world stops, we open the video, hit the like button and hit play. Thanks again, Ray, amazing review ❤
Just scored one for $529. Recently got my GoPro Hero 12 for shooting fishing videos for my stream. Got this for those shots of the fish hitting the bait or even shots from high up 180 around me while I’m fishing. The only thing I’m worried about is the object avoidance not being on this one. I saw those two holes up top on the front and thought I just found a steal deal. But it’s okay I’ll get my practice in and get better at it.
Have you got any tips for how to gain confidence flying in real high winds, especially over water, but without your sphincter tightening up or leaking? Been looking for any tips but haven’t found any. Cheers
Haha...honestly, it's just trust knowing that as long as your top wind gust is below the top sport mode speed, you're fine. Also, leaving a buffer of battery to get back. For context, I've killed a lot of drones in my day, but never once in a wind test overwater. The DJI drones are just so reliable when it comes to high winds, there's really no concern.
Agreed, it’s an involuntary reaction whenever we fly equipment over the water! Seriously, though, always fly into the wind going out so that you know coming back, you’ll have enough battery left to make it home. But if worse comes to worse (including if you are in RTH mode) Duckdown flying under 10 feet AGL (or is it AWL lol) to conserve battery energy. Finally, wear extra tight pants and cinch up your belt buckle to the point of pain to provide some relief for your poor sphincter muscle!
I haven't understood the Mini 3 since it came out. Even with the RC-N1 you're talking about a drone that you could stuff in a jersey pocket if you wanted to, and a controller that you... can't, really. Why worry about how small the drone folds down to, if you're sticking with the humongous controllers?
It's not as ideal as the old Mavic Air that worked with your phone (for close range shots while riding), but, the controller does actually fit in my back jersey pocket (most of my cycling jerseys have three pockets, so one for drone, one for controller/random nutrition, and one for phone). Keys floating around in whichever I feel.
The mini 3 batteries last 4 minutes longer (38 min) then the pro (34 min), as the extra sensors on the pro are consuming extra battery power. With the "Fly-More-Combo pack" this means approx. 12 minutes longer fly time. And.... if you have a power bank with you, you can charge the first empty battery for more than one hour (2 x 38 min). If battery nr. 2 and 3 are empty too (after 72 minutes flight), battery nr. 1 can be used again as it takes approx. 1 hour charge per battery! Of course the fly time depends on al kind of variables (speed, wind etc), but still, you can fly about 4 times +/- 30 minutes = 2 hours ;-)
When testing the drones around Amsterdam, do you always fly strictly by regulations? First time flyer from Amsterdam and i find it extremely difficult to find a good place to train, since there are so many restrictions (Ijmeer, Natura2000,…always some restrictions). Would be great if you could point out some great locations around Amsterdam to legaly fly my Mini 2, would be much appreciated 😇🙏🏻
I do fly legally, which as you noticed is a solid pain in the butt here. The piers at IJmuiden are good/clear, out towards Abcoude is clear, and Almere are all good places that are mostly easy to get to.
This looks like the best value for a drone that does tracking and obstacle avoidance and is still small enough to take on a bike trip. Is there anything else out there like that for bike packing?
Hi looking so help I crashed my mini 3 one of the front arm socket broke which I ordered and replaced but now it given me a lot of code can you please tell me what I can do I would try and get the code to you
Nope, you don't need WiFi during flying, except if you haven't downloaded maps and want detailed maps of the area around you (I never bother). The no-fly zones are already downloaded globally either way.
great vid👍😃 did you notice any difference in terms of CE range/stability to 3pro? There were lots of complains regarding this issue. I think they now placed the antennas into these landing legs. Best regards from Switzerland
It's hard to compare in that sense because the Mini 3 (non-Pro) is running O2, whereas the Mini 3 Pro is running O3. That said, in terms of my CE range, I was hitting about 1000-1100m before I saw signal degradation, which is in the same ballpark as I saw for the Mini 3 Pro (both with DJI RC).
Great video ive just orderd the mini 3 but i think for the price they ask it should come with onsticle avoidance and a spare battery ,i recently sild my potensic SE drone which was way cheaper and that only cost i think it was £250GBP and it came with a carry case and 2 batteries as well i sild that to my friend he loves it, now the only reason im getting dji is that it has a built in gimbal and the footage is a bit smoother than the potensic SE.
Excellent video explained a lot....I have the mini 3 if I also had a mini 3 pro can I use the same RC controller for both drones ?? anyone please answer thanks
Would this be a good starter drone in 2024? Or should I go for the pro with obstacle avoidance ? I'd like to fly it in the woods near trees. Is obstacle avoidance a must or should I just be careful ?
So if I understand correctly, Mini 3 has active tracker so for instance you want to make a video while you are riding a bike, it will keep moving with you.
Bună ziua. Îmi plac expunerile dumneavoastră și îmi sunt de ajutor. Sunt nou în acest domeniu și am DJI Mini 3 simplu, dar tot văd comentarii de genul: FOTOGRAFII RAPIDE”, în timp ce filmează Dronie, Circle, Bumerang sau Rocket. Aceste fotografii trebuie să le facem noi sau le găsim undeva deja făcute de cameră? Vă mulțumesc. Vă doresc succes în continuare!👍
Concerning crash avoidance, you should always remember that the pro doesn't have sensors sideways (think about tracking parallel) and if using sports mode, all sensors are disabled.
I'm planning to buy my first drone to make footage of myself while traveling in a camper. Would you guys recommend going for a drone that does have active tracking or would these quick shot features be sufficient? Not sure what the difference is between both functionalities.
Damn dude you didn't talk about the right scroll wheel. I have a Mavic 3 Classic and the right scroll wheel will NOT do a continuous zoom. It does a hard switch in zoom power from 1 to 3 only. Does this with the Mini 3?
I just boght the DJI mini 3 fly more combo (im from Norway by the way) and i didn’t think before i hit the purchase button, but is the mini 3 a good beginners drone? Does it take nice or blurry photos? is the videos laggy or nice and smooth when you are taking a video? I dont have a lot of expertise or experience with these sort of things, so i just wanted to ask someone who has more clue than i do on these sort of things! Nice video man, this inspired me to buy my first drone!
Only for short periods. Watch this video here, which shows how it works (it's on Mini 2, but exact same for Mini 3 non-Pro): ua-cam.com/video/ibGgvfbPUZM/v-deo.html
Hello and thanks for the excellent video. I see you're also living on the coast of the Netherlands. I'm in The Hague and also going to purchase the mini 3. Could you give me some advice about what test/paperwork or certificate I would need to pass in order to use the mini 3 for commercial purposes in NL? And also for stock footage and UA-cam? Thanks a lot for any advice. Cheers AB
Hiya mate, I’ve just got mini 3, I’ve not got SD card yet, I use my iPhone to fly it, I’m recording in 4k, but it doesn’t look as good as other videos I’ve seen of the 3 mini,, is it because it’s straight to iPhone and not using an SD card.?
Yeah, so when you look at the backup recording on your iPhone, it's only at 1080p. You'll want to choose to download the recording from the drone to your phone to get the full-res 4K recording. Check out my Mini 3 Pro (or Mini 4 Pro) beginners guide for how to do that, it's identical to the Mini 3 itself in that area.
Wow - your production is really top notch. Drone Portfolio? Do not give me bad ideas. Still on an Air1. 14:23 To me 250 extra would worth be to get better active tracking.
Been kicking around getting a drone. Been looking at the Mavic, but that sort of $$$ is a bit much, but I'm aware at how good it is. I'm really liking the Mini 3 Pro after checking it out...but one thing I've noticed in practically all drone video footage, there seems to be a slight jerkiness or "micro freezes" to the video (I can see it in every example you posted here in this review) Not super noticeable, but it is noticeable. Why is that? To be honest, I'm not particularly interested in having to invest in an expensive video editing suit and going through color grading and all sorts of post shot editing. Maybe if I capture something amazing, then, but in general, I just want it as more of a casual use/toy. I want something that'll take decent video straight out of the drone. From the examples you posted here, the Mini 3 seems to have decent quality straight from the drone, but I'm still concerned with that jerkiness. Probably not a big deal to most people, but it drives me nuts 🙂
Is that red Pier the North Pier in IJmuiden? I live nearby in Amsterdam. It almost looks like the Pier in Wijk aan Zee but I still think it is the North Pier IJmuiden.
Thank you for an informative video. One question lingers for me. Does the drone require wifi/internet access to operate? I understand that downloading the firmware, etc, requires internet access. But does the drone also need it to operate in the field, where perhaps there’s no internet access?
No Wifi/ceullar required (except for updates you noted). In fact, since I use mine with the DJI RC most of the time, I never have cellular/wifi where I'm going (as I don't hotspot it to my phone). Zero issues.
It'd be the same 720p feed as any previous drone to be honest. So unless you're on a Mavic 3/Mini 3 Pro/Avata, then all the previous units are Occusync 2. Totally fine for that.
Thank you for making such great videos. I’m considering buying my 1st drone. My decision is toward the Mini 3 Pro (vs mini 2 pro) to get the avoidance system and the auto shots. They are $1000 vs $500 CAD 🇨🇦. Literally double but it seems worth it.
Pricing on the Mini 3 is nuts. (Bear in mind I am talking AUD here). The Mini 3 fly more combo is $1188. The Mini 3 on its own is $674 and the fly more pack is $259... Do the math, how are two separate packs with the same contents as the combined pack so much less expensive???
I never knew about bringing the sticks inward like that to make the drone take off. 🤯 Thanks for the quick tips Ray! 🙌
Someday I might share the first ‘cut’ of that shot…
@@Dcrainmaker - 😬 - I've flown my drone in my house before. Worst idea ever. 🤦♂

Fun fact that red boat filmed earlier on has a fully gimballed walk way for working at windfarms.

This vs DJI Mini 4k, which one to pick?
The mini 3 batteries last 4 minutes longer (38 min) then the pro (34 min), as the extra sensors on the pro are consuming extra battery power. With the "Fly-More-Combo pack" this means approx. 12 minutes longer fly time. And.... if you have a power bank with you, you can charge the first empty battery for more than one hour (2 x 38 min). If battery nr. 2 and 3 are empty too (after 72 minutes flight), battery nr. 1 can be used again as it takes approx. 1 hour charge per battery! Of course the fly time depends on al kind of variables (speed, wind etc), but still, you can fly about 4 times +/- 30 minutes = 2 hours ;-)
would this drone be good at exploring the grand canyon or mount hayes?

Does the rc screen need wifi when your out and about so u can view the screen when your flying the drone.
Nope, you don't need WiFi during flying, except if you haven't downloaded maps and want detailed maps of the area around you (I never bother). The no-fly zones are already downloaded globally either way.

I just ordered a refurbished one from Best buy for 550$ with the rc remote as a starter drone and I got the neo while I was there too
Does alle the batteries in the box have the same weight,total under 250 grams?
Can you download apps to the control ie fake GPS so you can choose a different location to where you actually are?

Hiya mate, I’ve just got mini 3, I’ve not got SD card yet, I use my iPhone to fly it, I’m recording in 4k, but it doesn’t look as good as other videos I’ve seen of the 3 mini,, is it because it’s straight to iPhone and not using an SD card.?
Yeah, so when you look at the backup recording on your iPhone, it's only at 1080p. You'll want to choose to download the recording from the drone to your phone to get the full-res 4K recording. Check out my Mini 3 Pro (or Mini 4 Pro) beginners guide for how to do that, it's identical to the Mini 3 itself in that area.
Wow - your production is really top notch. Drone Portfolio? Do not give me bad ideas. Still on an Air1.
14:23 To me 250 extra would worth be to get better active tracking.
Yup, I agree!
Do you recommend this or a camera?
A camera don’t fly..

Lol wut
@@frankwalker4339 i got the drone
Been kicking around getting a drone. Been looking at the Mavic, but that sort of $$$ is a bit much, but I'm aware at how good it is. I'm really liking the Mini 3 Pro after checking it out...but one thing I've noticed in practically all drone video footage, there seems to be a slight jerkiness or "micro freezes" to the video (I can see it in every example you posted here in this review) Not super noticeable, but it is noticeable. Why is that?
To be honest, I'm not particularly interested in having to invest in an expensive video editing suit and going through color grading and all sorts of post shot editing. Maybe if I capture something amazing, then, but in general, I just want it as more of a casual use/toy. I want something that'll take decent video straight out of the drone. From the examples you posted here, the Mini 3 seems to have decent quality straight from the drone, but I'm still concerned with that jerkiness. Probably not a big deal to most people, but it drives me nuts 🙂
Is that red Pier the North Pier in IJmuiden? I live nearby in Amsterdam. It almost looks like the Pier in Wijk aan Zee but I still think it is the North Pier IJmuiden.
Yup, correct!
Thank you for an informative video. One question lingers for me. Does the drone require wifi/internet access to operate? I understand that downloading the firmware, etc, requires internet access. But does the drone also need it to operate in the field, where perhaps there’s no internet access?
No Wifi/ceullar required (except for updates you noted). In fact, since I use mine with the DJI RC most of the time, I never have cellular/wifi where I'm going (as I don't hotspot it to my phone). Zero issues.
great video! I fly with the dronemask 99% of the time, how good is the video quality using the RC-N1 controller? Clear enough to use the dronemask?.
It'd be the same 720p feed as any previous drone to be honest. So unless you're on a Mavic 3/Mini 3 Pro/Avata, then all the previous units are Occusync 2. Totally fine for that.
Is rhe video feed quality worse than the mini 2 do you think? I was hapoy with the quality on my mini 2 feed so if its the same i should be fine
Fix your spelling please
Thank you
Great video
Thank you for making such great videos. I’m considering buying my 1st drone. My decision is toward the Mini 3 Pro (vs mini 2 pro) to get the avoidance system and the auto shots. They are $1000 vs $500 CAD 🇨🇦. Literally double but it seems worth it.
Yup, I think it's definitely worth the cost!
What a good drone to record riding a bicycle? (Road bike)
D~C nice ~ all the best- ✋
Thanks!
Can you use the controller of the Mavic air 1 for this drone?
No. As far as I know, the DJI RC-N1 came with the DJI Air 2S, DJI Mini 2 (I think also the Mini SE), Mini 3 Pro, the Mavic 3.
@@Dcrainmaker And the Mavic air 1 works in WiFi
@@playingsaint Correct, the last DJI drone to do so (for control)...sadly.
Pricing on the Mini 3 is nuts. (Bear in mind I am talking AUD here). The Mini 3 fly more combo is $1188. The Mini 3 on its own is $674 and the fly more pack is $259... Do the math, how are two separate packs with the same contents as the combined pack so much less expensive???
Maybe because of plus batteries but that's too much
i was just listening to this and this guys facts are all over the place
And what facts would those be?
Does it not have 1080p 4x zoom?
Let’s talk 🚀🚀
I have a surprise for you..
