Why not use a larger card ? If we want a larger card what would be the maximum size you would buy ?? And why ? I would think while out "in the field" you would not want to have to be changing cards constantly ?
@@LJ-jq8og The largest the unit supports is 512GB (officially anyways, perhaps it supports 1TB, but I don't have any of those cards sitting around to try it out). For me, the 256GB cards kinda fit the bill perfectly in terms of storage capacity vs price. The 512 Extreme cards cost about $110 or so, versus these are $35ish. For simple math, at 4K/30 HDR, that gives you about 7.5hrs of footage. Which is a lot of flights, especially since you're likely not shooting 100% of the time in the air in 4K/30. But to each their own!
@@JScarborough9000 Yup! I was looking to do perhaps a deep-dive on features, but somewhat comparative to the DJI RC Pro in terms of what's offered there. Or, maybe it'll just be a deep-dive for the DJI RC itself. I've got most of the details written up already, so might be a weekend project.
I don't own a drone, or even have plans to get one in the near future... and yet, I still just spent an hour watching your whole video. I think that says a lot about the quality of the content here. It was very interesting to learn about the current capabilities of a consumer drone. You did an excellent job of conveying all the info. I not only think I have a pretty full understanding of the use of this drone now, but you also gave some great info that seems it would apply to drones in general. Two thumbs up, sir.
I’m 57 yrs old and still amazed at the speed of technology and the things we can do with it! Im about to get the drone you are flying and thank you for making it simple and easy for me to use!
I ordered a drone but was on the fence about it. Wasn’t sure if it was a smart purchase or not. This video is extremely long but I wanted to make sure I knew how to use my new expensive purchase so I sit down and watched this video. I must say, I am blown away by how great of a video this is and all of the features the drone has. This video really sold me on the drone and helped me to see all of the things I can truly do with it. Thank you!!!
I think what makes this such a good tutorial video is you assumed that we know nothing about drones so you covered all areas on how to use this drone and drones in general. I feel like alot of people would say for example "dont take off from metal" where you actually explained why. Thank you
Complete beginners guide is an understatement. Thanks for putting this all together. A lot of information to process but easy to follow. Thanks for the encouragement.
The bestest most informative video I've seen. I've joined groups on Facebook and when you ask a question they get smart and judgemental. Give thanks and please continue with the teaching.
There are a lot of videos about the mini 3 breaking things down, and this one is my favorite. You are not annoying and go straight to the points. Thank you!
This being my first drone, I must thank you in advance and say you saved me a few blades, as I did not clearly understand obstacle avoidance till I saw your video. Excellent video. Clear, concise and to the point. Keep up the great work!
If i get the mini 4pro for my first drone, do you think that would be good or stick with the 3 mini pro? Do you have a video with a comparison of the 2? Thanks man
@@grizzle1629 newer is always better if money is not a problem, otherwise Mini 3 pro is still a great drone that will give you tons of fun and great shots!
Hi, I also found this video in the link on your high wind video. I’m glad that I did. I just ordered a mini 3 pro yesterday from DJI at it's launch. This will be my first drone. I am a commercially licensed fixed-wing, glider, and free balloon pilot plus I shoot still photography professionally (currently horse racing). Even with this background, I find challenges in learning remote controlled aero video photography stimulating but sometimes overwhelming (and not having the drone in hand to practice with is not making learning easy). Your video instruction is by far the clearest and most complete that I have yet to view, thank you.
In grad school I had a professor who spoke at an incredible speed in order to get out all the information he wanted to present in the time limited by the class. DC reminds me of this professor. While not limited in time, I will say I'm amazed by the amount of information he presents in his videos. Honestly, I don't know how he does it.
Only seen 6 minutes but already know this is a great video tutorial. Thank you for getting right to it and not 5 minutes of introductions and bs talk. ❤
Hands down one of the best tutorial videos I have seen in a loooong time! Amazing job and thanks for sharing. I ordered mine yesterday and this video was the most helpful!
Good sir, this video is a public service and I can't thank you enough for making it. At the time of this writing, I'm about 5 days away from owning one of these... it's my first drone, but I've been trying to get as educated as possible about it and this vid is vital. Cheers from Louisiana, man! Sincerely appreciate you.
@@Seno-bz4ij - it was a total blast until I started using sport mode. All I'll say is I'm glad I got the insurance, lol. I should have a new one back in soon!
Thank you for coming out with one of the more thorough guides. So many mini 3 videos coming out at the same time but this one stands out. Pre-ordered my drone!
🎉Thank you for very informative video. I am a 80 year old new pilot. There is so much to learn about my new toy, and thank you for explaining all the background settings, the whys & wherefores of which I didn't know of or understand. I will take the air with a bunch more confidence thanks to you Sir Michigan's new/old pilot LeRoy
Really great video, I’m switching from the Mavic 2 Pro to Mini 3 Pro due to UK regulations etc and so wanted to learn more about how the DJI Fly app worked. Only thing I would say is that I wouldn’t recommend flipping the drone to stop it when hand landing, it puts extra strain on the motors which isn’t needed. I generally hold my hand underneath, then push down on the stick to land it directly into my hand, keep holding down until the motors stop, as if it were a normal ground landing. Other than loved the video and very helpful.
+1 for landing in hand and pressing down on thumb stick to land. It shuts the motors off almost immediately and dont risk catchin your wrist with a prop too.
@@temax it’s the left joystick, pulling towards your body (down). Just keep holding it down after you put your hand out and it will land in your hand and props turn off. Hope that helps!
@@frost7724 Generally not, but it really depends on the exact bundle purchased. I've linked one up above/here, that I use in all my drones: amzn.to/3TakpnJ
THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I've just bought this drone and your video made everything clear to me (much better than the user manual), I'm excited to get it out and make all the shots I want without that feeling of being overwhelmed with modes and settings!
Fantastic insight to the Mini 3, this IS the most thorough content I've seen on the M3, well done!! Masterclass of information, correctly reemphasising the risk of no side sensors for all newcomers. Suberb 👏👏
The DJI Mini 3 will be my first drone and this video has given me so many great tips and tricks, and the confidence that'll be able to master it in no time!! Thank you so much!!
It will be my first one also. When I read the onerous restrictions on flying the larger drones in the UK I cancelled my order. The mini 2 didn't cut it for me but the mini 3 has almost everything I want, all that's missing is side and top avoidance
Wow, I was glued to this video from bigging to end. Very impressed by your presentation, easy to understand and looks a superb drone to boot. Thanks so much. Subscribed 😁👍
She just came in today although this is my second time watching your full video and she's not even done charging so I'll probably watch it again awesome job.. thank you!!
Bro, this level of content has covered everything I wanted to learn about this specific drone and I feel sooo much more confident in purchasing it now that I've watched your video! 😭💕💕👏 Thank you so much, I've subscribed!
Just bought my first dji drone, have no idea what is drone photography/video.. this tutorial made it clear! Better than the tutorial from the dji itself! Thanks for sharing it! Now I have lots of ideas flowing to my head!
Such an excellent comprehensive tutorial, also no frills just straight through all the functions . I’ll be revisiting this a lot! All tutorials should be like this. Many thanks.
Thanks for this and your other videos, I'm planning on getting the Mini 3 as my first drone (mostly for landscape photography/videography here in Hawaii). I've spent a few minutes flying other peoples' drones, but that's a far cry from owning my own so it's good to have a "first timer" tutorial.
Thanks - appreciate it! And lucky you on the Hawaii choice. I was looking at some drone regulation maps there a few days ago for a potential trip later this year, are there many state-driven no-fly zones to worry about (for parks), that might not show up on the FAA ones?
@@Dcrainmaker Oh, nice! With the caveat that I'm on Hawaiʻi island (the Big Island), so that's what I know best: the big ones I know of are the two national parks (Hawai'i Volcanoes NP and Haleakalā NP) on Hawaiʻi and Maui islands, which don't show up on either the FAA map or DJI's geofencing as no-fly zones. I also noticed while I was at Maunakea in November that there were no-drone signs posted both at the visitor information station (2.8 km) and the summit (~4 km), so it's possible the entire Mauna Kea Ice Age Natural Area Reserve (which covers the area around the summit down to approximately 3 km) is off-limits. DJI's map shows a few more places such as military installations that aren't listed on the FAA map, but that's all the unlisted places I'm aware of at the moment. If I find any more once I'm out and about with my new drone (ordered two days ago!) I'll drop another reply.
Just bought a Mini 3 Pro from a friend. You gave a great tutorial that felt both informative and casually informal. Thanks! Going to be using my drone for a few shots on my upcoming motorcycle trip through Chile and spring.
Super interesting. Subscribed and liked. Thank you! I've been really wanting a drone ever since the first Mavic came out, but never pulled the trigger on my first drone. This one seems like finally is the one for me. I'll be watching your stuff alot while I wait for shipping
I'm planning on buying this drone today from DJI and I wanted to say how helpful your tutorial was for me. I will probably watch it 5 more times because you covered so much info in such a short amount of time. Thanks, I'm Rod from Southwest Florida and have been involved in pro photography for nearly 50 years and now am only a hobbyist and want to hobby some more with a drone. Starting out with the 3 drone. Cheers.
Thank you so much for this! Just ordered one for myself and am super excited to become proficient with it. Honestly, one of the things I'm most impressed with in your video is how well it's handling the wind and how good the gimbal stabilization is. Given the fact the wind is quite audible in your mic, I'm assuming you probably had 15-20mph winds that day while you were recording. I'll be interested to see how it does in my own usage, since I live in Utah and it's relatively rare to have a calm day out here. I won't use it on any crazy wind days, but I'm very interested in learning this new skill... Plus, I'll need to learn another skill with video editing. Fortunately, I'm already proficient in photo editing, but it's cool to jump head first into a new realm!
Hey Ray, I recall that you a long time ago tested active tracking while you were skiing. It wasn’t really successful for the drones at that time. Do you think that the Mini 3 would be a useful drone for skiing and snowboarding videos with the active tracking option? Thanks for the great video
@@R00RAL Great, thanks. Too bad it can’t track you from the front view. I hope also that the drone descends at the same rate and doesn’t keep the same elevation
Thanks for the tutorial. I bought my DJI Mini 3 Pro about 6 months ago, stored it and now I am on a tour of the American mid-west and this tune-up was great. A little fast in some areas, but great, so thanks.
Fantastic breakdown on all the features, especially the different modes. You really go into depth while viewer see where & how to find everything you cover. We use our drone mostly when on the boat, thus catching it is the logical choice. Is there an option to RTC (Return to Controller) instead of RTH? ⚓
I'm watching this video for the second time. There's just too much good info to digest it in a single view. I don't have a nice drone yet, but the Mini 3 Pro looks like a great option. Thanks!
Just picked this drone up to film our travels while living full time in a diy camper van. For it for $589 at Best Buy. This video helped out a TON and haven't even unboxed it yet!
Absolutely brilliant video. I have put off purchasing a drone for my sports photography for the past year due to my lack of knowledge of how they work, but by the time I reached three quarters of the way through the video I was online purchasing a mini 3 pro. It will of course take practice before I'm confident to take it out to a sports event, but I have a great tutorial to speed up the process. Thank you very much from Ireland for the benefit of your knowledge.
Much better at explaining than the online tutorial.setting out the config of the controller with no spurious translations.really well done although you speak to quickly.I struggled with the online manual for two days before I saw this and I was flying in about 20 minutes.
Probably one of the best reviews I've seen on this product. I've been wanting a drone for over a decade, and with my motorcycle and car hobbies, I think this is perfect.. Thank you so much.
I just bought this drone and had no idea of what it was capable of. I was looking for longer flight time. Thank you so much for this vid I am even more excited to get the drone and start flying her.
Thank you very much, you definitely have pedagogic skills based on the way you explain the material so that it is simple and to the point. Kudos and greetings from Kyrgyzstan!
I typically do my landings by hovering about 4' high and while in flight reach in behind by the battery area for a hand GRASP landing. Great video's with tons of info. Flew over 1000 miles on my mm2 & 300 miles on my m3pro
Where is the "LOVE LOVE LOVE" button? My friend, I just got my Mavic Mini Pro 3 this morning and wanted to watch a tutorial before flying for the first time. Your video was simply perfect! Engaging, well explained, full of details without being boring or redundant... A perfect 10/10. Thank you so much for this video, that was, AMAZING! I'm so excited to try my drone now :)
Great video! Thanks so much. I just bight my Mini 3 Pro upgrading from a Mini SE and right after I ordered it I had buyers remorse haha but after watching this video it eased up haha. I enjoy your videos please keep it going specially for the Mini 3 Pro and Mini SE. thanks again great video.
Thank you, the best review/guide i've seen on the Mini3Pro. 24:50min was what i was looking for in so many video. And the first video with this handlanding tip. Btw. , always good reviews of yours .. data, specs, all you need to now about things at fast pace.
I love your Videos and the in-depth guide.. I watched your go Pro 10, and 11 video before buying it and now doing the same before buying this drone.. Your tips and tricks do help out alot when handling our devices. Thank you so much..👍👍
I don’t comment on videos much but I just bought this drone for my channel. This video was very informative and really help me get a grasp of what the drone is capable. Thank you for putting your time into this video.
Bloody beaut video mate. I have the Mini3 Pro and still learned things I didn't know it could do. Well done, thank you. All the best from Sydney Australia.
Greetings from Texas. Just received my new mini and will test fly tomorrow so seeing this video today was perfect timing. I’m sure this will greatly help enhance my first experience. Thank you for the work put into this. Take care and stay safe
Thanks a lot; its a super clear "beginners guide" I went flying this weekend after unboxing without seeing this and this tackles all my questions for now.
This year I have been practicing with a new one. I have been flown that without instructions, but you have gave me amazing tips for improving when I will go to fly that again. Thank you so much for sharing your content. You got a new follower :)
Thank you so much for this video. I have never owned a drone and I have been looking at the DJI 3 for a while now but was 50/50 on spending that amount on my first drone. I am also nervous that it would be too hard to use and I wouldn't be able to get good shots etc. This video has 100% reassured me that this is the right drone to get and from your tutorial it does not look that difficult to operate. Thank you
Thanks so much..... this is an outstanding video because, unlike so many others, you get to the point quickly without a lot of "wasted talk". Your pace is fast enough to keep me interested and still providing great detail.
YOU. ARE. FANTASTIC! This video is so helpful, thank you for taking the time to film and to show us how the drone works! I will definitely share this video with drone-looking friends. Thanks again!
Just bought a mini 3 pro today! And this video was really informative and concise! Really liked the «live» -demonstration and explanation. Got a good feel for usage, actually, out in the field🙌👏
I just bought the DJI Mini 3 Pro and it is my first one. Great tutorial! I plan to revisit this video a couple of times so I can assimilate as much info as possible. You did cover lots of material. Thanks!!!
I just got my Mini3P, and appreciate this detailed to the point video. I have gained confidence and understanding by watching your video! I also watched thr informative Mini3B vs Mini3P. Keep it up!!
Fantastic video buddy. Comprehensive, straight forward, easy to understand and informative. I'm literally about 60 minutes now into researching drones and I feel like I could buy this and be good after watching your video. Thanks!

I lost my Dji min 2 in the mountains.. Picked up a DJI Mini 3 pro.. thank you so much for the video. So many new features I did not have before!
Sorry to hear about the Mini 2, but enjoy the new one!
An amazing video, thank you 😊
You have no idea how helpful this is...I purchased this drone as a beginner and I was completely lost..
Now I feel more confident, thanks
Very informative tutorial . Clear, easy to follow and understand and covers basics to get started with the drone. Excellent !
Just bought a Mini 3 Pro from a friend. You gave a great tutorial that felt both informative and casually informal. Thanks! Going to be using my drone for a few shots on my upcoming motorcycle trip through Chile and spring.
Super interesting. Subscribed and liked. Thank you! I've been really wanting a drone ever since the first Mavic came out, but never pulled the trigger on my first drone. This one seems like finally is the one for me. I'll be watching your stuff alot while I wait for shipping
Thanks - appreciate it!
I'm planning on buying this drone today from DJI and I wanted to say how helpful your tutorial was for me. I will probably watch it 5 more times because you covered so much info in such a short amount of time. Thanks, I'm Rod from Southwest Florida and have been involved in pro photography for nearly 50 years and now am only a hobbyist and want to hobby some more with a drone. Starting out with the 3 drone. Cheers.
Thank you so much for this! Just ordered one for myself and am super excited to become proficient with it. Honestly, one of the things I'm most impressed with in your video is how well it's handling the wind and how good the gimbal stabilization is. Given the fact the wind is quite audible in your mic, I'm assuming you probably had 15-20mph winds that day while you were recording. I'll be interested to see how it does in my own usage, since I live in Utah and it's relatively rare to have a calm day out here. I won't use it on any crazy wind days, but I'm very interested in learning this new skill... Plus, I'll need to learn another skill with video editing. Fortunately, I'm already proficient in photo editing, but it's cool to jump head first into a new realm!
Dude I’m so happy I found this video. I just bought one comes Wednesday. Super helpful thank you.
Hey Ray, I recall that you a long time ago tested active tracking while you were skiing. It wasn’t really successful for the drones at that time. Do you think that the Mini 3 would be a useful drone for skiing and snowboarding videos with the active tracking option?
Thanks for the great video
Yes, in side or rear view. Sports mode. Only thing is, no side to side avoidance sensors on the drone. But it will track you to 60km/hr.
@@R00RAL Great, thanks. Too bad it can’t track you from the front view. I hope also that the drone descends at the same rate and doesn’t keep the same elevation
@@vanik67 i have not received my drone yet. Acend & descend I will look into, I believe it does. Perhaps someone else who knows could comment.
Thanks for the tutorial. I bought my DJI Mini 3 Pro about 6 months ago, stored it and now I am on a tour of the American mid-west and this tune-up was great. A little fast in some areas, but great, so thanks.
Fantastic breakdown on all the features, especially the different modes. You really go into depth while viewer see where & how to find everything you cover. We use our drone mostly when on the boat, thus catching it is the logical choice. Is there an option to RTC (Return to Controller) instead of RTH? ⚓
controller does not have builtin gps ?! :)
Exceptional… felt like a pro drone operator after watching your vid. Saved a lot of time and possible headaches learning to fly. Thank you very much!
Purchased mine today. Absolute novice. This is a fantastic introduction, thank you.
I’ve watched SEVERAL first time training videos, I wish I would have watched yours first - it is by FAR the BEST! Great job man
I'm watching this video for the second time. There's just too much good info to digest it in a single view. I don't have a nice drone yet, but the Mini 3 Pro looks like a great option. Thanks!
Just picked this drone up to film our travels while living full time in a diy camper van. For it for $589 at Best Buy. This video helped out a TON and haven't even unboxed it yet!
12:40 "From a general, being a good human perspective"
This cracked me up man - You are the best lol
Absolutely brilliant video. I have put off purchasing a drone for my sports photography for the past year due to my lack of knowledge of how they work, but by the time I reached three quarters of the way through the video I was online purchasing a mini 3 pro. It will of course take practice before I'm confident to take it out to a sports event, but I have a great tutorial to speed up the process. Thank you very much from Ireland for the benefit of your knowledge.
purchased my first Mavic pro 6 years ago. Just got the mini 3 pro today. This video was still very helpful. Thanks. Good refresher.
Much better at explaining than the online tutorial.setting out the config of the controller with no spurious translations.really well done although you speak to quickly.I struggled with the online manual for two days before I saw this and I was flying in about 20 minutes.
Probably one of the best reviews I've seen on this product. I've been wanting a drone for over a decade, and with my motorcycle and car hobbies, I think this is perfect..
Thank you so much.
I just bought this drone and had no idea of what it was capable of. I was looking for longer flight time. Thank you so much for this vid I am even more excited to get the drone and start flying her.
Thank you very much, you definitely have pedagogic skills based on the way you explain the material so that it is simple and to the point. Kudos and greetings from Kyrgyzstan!
I typically do my landings by hovering about 4' high and while in flight reach in behind by the battery area for a hand GRASP landing. Great video's with tons of info. Flew over 1000 miles on my mm2 & 300 miles on my m3pro
Where is the "LOVE LOVE LOVE" button? My friend, I just got my Mavic Mini Pro 3 this morning and wanted to watch a tutorial before flying for the first time. Your video was simply perfect! Engaging, well explained, full of details without being boring or redundant... A perfect 10/10. Thank you so much for this video, that was, AMAZING! I'm so excited to try my drone now :)
Great video! Thanks so much. I just bight my Mini 3 Pro upgrading from a Mini SE and right after I ordered it I had buyers remorse haha but after watching this video it eased up haha. I enjoy your videos please keep it going specially for the Mini 3 Pro and Mini SE. thanks again great video.
Thank you, the best review/guide i've seen on the Mini3Pro. 24:50min was what i was looking for in so many video.
And the first video with this handlanding tip.
Btw. , always good reviews of yours .. data, specs, all you need to now about things at fast pace.
I’ve had my drone for a year now and because of this video the confidence to take my first official flight!!
Definitely the best intro video I've seen! Thank you!
This video is incredible, I am getting one of these drones and I felt like I took a full class on this. Love it.
Thanks!!!
Brilliant video, thanks. I now want a mini pro 3 ...and a windmill.
I'm a DRONE Newbie. I keep on coming back to this vid to learn about my drone and the remote control. Thanks for doing this for us👍🏼
I love your Videos and the in-depth guide.. I watched your go Pro 10, and 11 video before buying it and now doing the same before buying this drone.. Your tips and tricks do help out alot when handling our devices. Thank you so much..👍👍
I don’t comment on videos much but I just bought this drone for my channel. This video was very informative and really help me get a grasp of what the drone is capable. Thank you for putting your time into this video.
I get my drone on tomorrow and it is my first. This video has helped me understand already. I will be viewing it a few more times I'm sure lol. Thanks
Great video ! Am going out for my first flight with my mini 3 and this has got me confidently ready !
Bloody beaut video mate. I have the Mini3 Pro and still learned things I didn't know it could do. Well done, thank you. All the best from Sydney Australia.
Greetings from Texas. Just received my new mini and will test fly tomorrow so seeing this video today was perfect timing. I’m sure this will greatly help enhance my first experience. Thank you for the work put into this. Take care and stay safe
Thanks a lot; its a super clear "beginners guide" I went flying this weekend after unboxing without seeing this and this tackles all my questions for now.
This year I have been practicing with a new one. I have been flown that without instructions, but you have gave me amazing tips for improving when I will go to fly that again. Thank you so much for sharing your content. You got a new follower :)
Thank you so much for this video.
I have never owned a drone and I have been looking at the DJI 3 for a while now but was 50/50 on spending that amount on my first drone. I am also nervous that it would be too hard to use and I wouldn't be able to get good shots etc.
This video has 100% reassured me that this is the right drone to get and from your tutorial it does not look that difficult to operate.
Thank you
This is possibly one of the best explained video ive ever watched on youtube
Outstanding instruction. My Mini 3Pro comes in tomorrow, I feel very confident now that I have a good understanding of its features. Thanks!
Thanks so much..... this is an outstanding video because, unlike so many others, you get to the point quickly without a lot of "wasted talk". Your pace is fast enough to keep me interested and still providing great detail.
Great presentation. You sold the DJI Mini 3 RC to us! Well done.
I am most impressed on how stable it is with all the wind
Thanks for the video. I just ordered this drone so now I'm set. You have helped me immensely with bikes, trainers, and now drones!
I did not know about the hand catching, flipping drone over! Great tip and thanks for the walkthrough.
Thank you for this great tutorial. Never realized the drone had so much more options on it. Happy Videoing!
YOU. ARE. FANTASTIC! This video is so helpful, thank you for taking the time to film and to show us how the drone works! I will definitely share this video with drone-looking friends. Thanks again!
Thanks!!!
Just bought a mini 3 pro today! And this video was really informative and concise! Really liked the «live» -demonstration and explanation. Got a good feel for usage, actually, out in the field🙌👏
I just bought the DJI Mini 3 Pro and it is my first one. Great tutorial! I plan to revisit this video a couple of times so I can assimilate as much info as possible. You did cover lots of material. Thanks!!!
I just got my Mini3P, and appreciate this detailed to the point video. I have gained confidence and understanding by watching your video! I also watched thr informative Mini3B vs Mini3P. Keep it up!!
Fantastic video buddy. Comprehensive, straight forward, easy to understand and informative. I'm literally about 60 minutes now into researching drones and I feel like I could buy this and be good after watching your video. Thanks!
