DJI Mini 3 Pro Firmware Update - Range Issue Fixed!

  • Yesterday we received a very important firmware update for the DJI Mini 3 Pro that corrected several issues that many were experiencing including poor range and the DJI RC locking up. This firmware update is for the DJI RC controller only and is version 01.01.0100. I did a test flight this morning to see if the range issue has been corrected and indeed it has, on my unit for the issue I was having. I also tested out the new "Fly App" update v1.6.9. Everything seemed to operate as expected, some uses are reporting the compass is not working correctly, but mine seemed to perform normally. If you have been experiencing poor range with your DJI Mini 3 Pro, definitely download this update.

    Hi Shawn. Thank you for the up date. Great to see the range issue is improving. A couple of videos ago, you tested the RC with the Mavic 3 and had good range results thinking it was the Mini 3 Pro drone with the range problem. This firmware up date this time is for the RC. This Australian guy is a little confused lol. Regards 🇦🇺

    I expect you're right about the wireless radio being a tad weaker than the Mini 2. 4K60 is pretty CPU intensive, and they would have likely had to compromise somewhere to get that one-up on the Nano+ while staying under 249g. Glad yours is fixed!

    Hi Sean,
    Thanks for the video. Not sure if you noticed that your compass at the bottom left of your screen seemed way off relative to your location and it seem to be bouncing around everywhere.
    Myself and others have tried to do a compass calibrate to try and correct this behaviour as a result of this new update, but it will not allow you to calibrate the RC. What happens when you select Start it automatically tells you that the calibration has completed without you having to go through the calibration process.

But at the moment for some crazy reason you can only take hyperlapse photography with this mode. You can't simply take video. It drives me insane. Could be fixed in 2 seconds by a programmer.

    Hya Bud,
    I noticed after this 0100 update I had a little more range aswell but not that good.
    I could get to 800 feet with 5 white bars as well. After the 0300 update I could get 1,700 feet with 5 white bars. I eventually got to well over 4,000 feet until I had ornge then red and at about 4,300 I was asked to return home. I canceled and turned around and never lost connection even after turn 180 to fly hime. So that was another big improvement as well as the compass working correctly as well. Ray C Florida

    @MrksKr 2 роки тому +7

    Nice review.
    My range issues mostly persist:
    Before that update I had drops between 180m - 450m, now it lost signal at 680m and went into RTH due to signal loss at 730m.
    So maybe a minor tad improvement but nothing compared to the M2.
    Still in two minds whether to return the M3P to the shop and get a new one. But comments here suggest others having similar issues and my feel is that it throttles signal too much in CE mode (whereas ppl in FCC mode seem generally happier).
    So, in summary, agree with you and think future FW updates may address it eventually.

    • @NasMah
      @NasMah 2 роки тому +2

      Hey Creative im in the exact same situation.
      this time something different happened. Before i would get a range of only 200 m ish now its lost at 600 m ish similar to your situation.
      Also this happend:
      I turn on drone, went quicky on transmission tab, and for a split second it was in FCC and there was option auto/ manual for me to choose 2.4 and 5 but it disappeared in front of my eyes.
      Its so strange that this issue fixed some people M3P like shawns here just doesnt make sense LOL

      @MrksKr 2 роки тому +1

      @@NasMah Since 1.6.9 I've had marginally better range but after 730m lost signal completely / abruptly and went into RTH (luckily came back pretty quick).
      DJI suggest one last test asking me to "fly higher", so will do that. But at the same time suggested if problems persist to return it to the shop (Argos, UK). Luckily, Argos has got loads of stock now so might do that it this last test also disappoints.
      My suspicion is that this is a CE-Region issue and has likely to do with over-zealous signal-throttling (which should be fixable with yet another FW release).
      At the same time am getting a bit fed up being a Beta tester for DJI: I've now done 7 tests for them and it took them 1 1/2 weeks to get back to me analysing my flight log data / vids.
      Not good enough for something with that price tag!

      @@NasMah In principle, yes. However, the flying location I go to (outside London) do not really offer that much space either side.
      But I went back in the same location I previously flew and got around 600m @ 50m height. There's been suggestions that at 2X that height the signal may improve by 2-4X, so up to >2,000m. I need to test this but didn't as too hot in the UK atm.
      If I get a solid 600m at 50m height consistently, then I would be o.k. as this is within the realistic realms of UK VLOS rules.
      Now that DJI have officially said / advised that I can return it to the shop if need be, I will test a bit more before making my mind up about it.
      Equally, there response was that there's no hardware issue (whereas others seemingly have been told by DJI that they DID have a HW issue and as a result returned their drone).
      Finally, am still hopeful they may realise that the CE-region signal-throttling is part-responsible for all those issues and, if so, can improve range via future FW update...

As ibsaid originally, "for me, this worked". Hopefully DJI will add it near the top of a pretty long list of bugs, mostly minor annoyances, but some are more concerning. Precision RTH seems off, and return to original location after Quickshots in vertical (portrait) mode is not very accurate. The good news is it appears DJI is applying huge resources to this drone, for obvious reasons. 😉

I wish dji would get this figured out especiallyif it accurateon the RTH, my Mini 1 has the same inaccuracies with the radar but I need to check if RTH is accurate on the Mini 1. I had the chance yesterday to do a range test in the same rural location where my FCC Mini 1 with a set of parayagi was able to go out 5400m before having to turn around in order to be able to get home, it still had full signal and probably could have gone much further if it was a one way flight. My FCC Mini 3 was able to go a touch over 5000m in that same spot yesterday which is good compared to some of the issues others are having. I have another urban test to do in a spot that my Mini 1 gets 3400m range but so far my FCC Mini 1 gets better range when using a parayagi range extender. I also noticed that I didn't have to use your fix to keep my Mini 3 in FCC mode yesterday so maybe the update fixed that too.

    Nice videos. I’ve notice the compass is not working correctly in the video. I’m having the same issue since the latest update to the RC controller. We definitely got issues with the new RC update . Take another look at your video I believe your compass is off. Let us know.

    On the latest firmware (V01.00.0500) in CE mode, away from any dense population and around 800 meters I get warnings about the signal. I never make it past 1300 meters before RTH kicks in. No matter what area I fly in, I get the same results. Anyone else experiencing this?
    Should I send it in for a checkup or is this just what it is? sure, I never need more range to do the job, but I think it should go way past this limit, right?

  • @BlairAir
    @BlairAir 2 роки тому +1

    Hmm... so, if this controller update did indeed fix the "switch to CE Mode" range issue - and it sure looks that way- maybe it's a combination of V01.00.0201 + Controller FW (V01.01.0100) plus finally bringing DJI Fly 1.6.9 onto the RC (RM330) Controller that completes the fix. I'm curious: did you fly RC-N1 with .0201 FW and still suffer poor range?
