So the Mini 3 Pro has been labelled “Small” & “Affordable”, but with the ability to capture “High Quality Footage”. But after 1 years use and new entries to market… Is it currently the “Best Drone?”
To answer this, we’ll look at the Pros n Cons of the Mini 3 Pro… compare it with DJI’s previous “Mini 2”… new budget “Mini 3” and new high end “Mavic 3 Classic”.

Thanks for the kind words 1wor1d, ye the Mini 3 Pro is much improved since release, due to all the firmware updates...and the latest update, just enabled Goggles Support on the Mini 3 Pro so you can fly it like an fpv drone (not as fast ofcourse), but still... pretty awesome

Hey Mannie, greetings from the Western Suburbs 😀 If you're considering this for your first drone, you won't be disappointed, it captures great footage and allows you to keep a low profile which is great if you're starting out.

@brionrjames 11 месяцев назад
Nice comparison, i agree with most of your statements, i have been getting better battery life with my mini 3 pro personally, but i guess it comes down to conditions. My biggest gripe with the trio you have reviewed is the laws in the uk, it makes it virtually impossible to use in many places, considering you would need to be at maximum zoom to get any usable shots here it makes the mavic 3 a non starter, in any format. The mavic 3 pro would be amazing to have a fly with, but there is virtually no places you could take it and take it out of the bag, with this in mind you have limited options available, these include the rntire mini series of drones. I started my drone piloting back when the original mavic mini was released, after a crash course in flying this new small drone i was amazed by its ability, my only other drone experience was with the original inspire, many years back, this was a few hours flying this massive piece of highly sophisticated, very expensive flying camera, that started my interest in drones, and also put me off due to prices. When the mini was launched i jumped on it, and still to this day i fly it, the camera is not good, but for experience, and learning to fly was brilliant, i use it for pictures, and video, but more for practice in confined spaces, because it has no sensors to speak about it makes you think every single move, and makes you very aware of the surroundings, this in turn in my opinion makes you work harder to get the best shot without incident. I am still reluctant to go out in strong wind, and typically keep it to a maximum of 20mph wind, although the mini 3 pro can handle more i dont want to risk damage or loss. In different parts of the world the restrictions vary so much, and where one will fall foul of the rules, another will fit comfortably within them, i think this should be a bigger factor when looking at purchasing a drone, particularly as a mivic drone is significantly more expensive, it would make a very expensive paperweight in the uk, unless you want video from way up high above a structure, and a long way from people and events, couple the distance you have to be from people, crouds, buildings etc, and the many flight restricted areas, it rules out a lot of places, and events. The mini 3 pro being that bit lighter, and smaller, quieter, and able to get a little closer means you will get more opportunities to fly, and in more places. A massive win for the mini drones, over the mavic series, sadly, and though i would absolutely love a mavic 3 pro, it would not be used much for filming, or taking pictures of stunning buildings, landscapes, events, more for flights in the country, away from people and buildings, and flight paths etc. The new inspire his inspired me, and if i lived in a country where the restrictions are sensible, and limitations are less i would absolutely love one of these amazing flying cini cameras, that would be a dream. As i live in the uk i will stick with the best mini drone available, and watch for any new iterations of them going forward, especially a mini drone with thermal, wow that would be my last drone purchase.
@frostfire_mage
@frostfire_mage 11 месяцев назад
Thanks brionrjames, ye I do film in windy areas around 50% of the time, so constantly swapping batteries out. I don’t really like using zoom on any drones as it’s not a true capture of the scene. I tend to take probably more risks than most with my Mini 3 Pro, but ye the consequences would suck if I lost or broke it. I agree that the regulations in a lot of countries mean the mini’s are the only real option, and as tech improves, you probably won’t need larger drones as much in the future.The Inspire 3 does look amazing though… this is the best vid I’ve seen so far of it... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zgFWiBWneZA.html Why you so interested in capturing thermals?

For most of us fun flyers the mini 3 Pro is more than adequate for our needs. This is my 1st and only drone and as a new flyer I'm still getting to grips with it. This will do me for the next 3/4years easily . Then I will maybe upgrade to the mini 6 Pro 😊

@FrostFire Mage long story short. It's really my fault in post. I shoot 4k 30. Convert to 4k 25 in post. BUT! (Here's the my fault part) because the ss isn't changing along side the fps in post... it will obviously affect the jitter/stutter. 16 nd. It's just more apparent with latest firmware 🤷

Hey GamerGirlDanoots, when you’re just starting out definitely… so make sure you take it somewhere that has wide open spaces with limited objects, structures or foliage. Once comfortable, you just need to be more mindful of your drones sensor limitations… with the Mini 3 Pro, it’s when going sideways or up. But ye it can happen, so always try and maintain line of sight, for easier retrieval 👍🏻

Have you noticed any changes to the active track over the year? I watched year old videos of people mountain biking in forested areas and this drone did a good job. I got one for Christmas, but haven't had a chance to use it for biking for a few months. It doesn't do a good job following me while mtb'ing. It constantly loses track of me in open areas or if I go behind an object for just a second. Older videos show it going around objects and keeps following the subject. I have bypass selected and settings all the way up to allow the drone to move as fast as possible. If I could, I'd probably return it, as I mainly wanted it for how small it is and to follow me while mtb'ing.
@virginiatrailcameravideos
@virginiatrailcameravideos Год назад
I had the same issues when I tested it with an ATV in an open field. One thing though is that the active track likes being behind you. I honestly didn't realize that when I studied it a little before purchase. I've tested the active tracking with my boat and it was absolutely perfect in both modes I tried. Not so much on the ATV.
@frostfire_mage
@frostfire_mage Год назад
If you are using Active Track on Trace mode with Bypass selected then you should have no issues with the drone following behind you. I’ve been using it for following me on foot and while driving the car, and does it perfectly. Maybe throw a message on the DJI forums, or call their support line for advice.

I suggested he get in contact with DJI support, worth a shot

Yep, vs the Autel Nano+ and Skydio 2+ it’s slightly better across the board… including performance, camera, transmission, remote and built in features. The only thing the Skydio 2+ can do better is when tracking in sports mode, but even then the quality of the footage is still not as good.

@@frostfire_mage Ok just to make sure we're talking about the same thing and it makes sense: quick shots can only be used in normal color profile and auto. Other tracking (trace, spotlight) can use d-cinelike, but also only with auto. Is that correct? I'm only interested in the things that allow d-cinelike as I'll never shoot in normal. And the main tracking I'm interested to use is spotlight. Also, thanks for literally being the only one that even half mentioned that in a video. It's important information videos seem to skip out on and then buyers find out afterwards, not cool. So thanks for bringing that to my attention.

Hey Mate, You keep mentioning licensing but drone weight for these drones doesn't make any difference for commercial use in Australia under the excluded category of 2kg or less. Registering your drone is the only difference currently which can save you $40 if your drone weighs 500 grams or less.
@frostfire_mage
@frostfire_mage Год назад
Hey Ozzy, you speak truth re: Australian Drone rules & regulations 👍🏻 However, DJI made the Mini line of drones…At less than 249 grams, so they are exempt from “most drone regulations in several parts of the world”. I should have made this more clear in the video.

If you can afford it, mavic 3 is the best drone without a doubt. You want the best quality video and photo and the other drone are far away in this area. So, if you have the money, get mavic 3. If you do not have the money, get mini 3. If you have a small amount of money, get mini3 pro. Everybody has now a 55 inch tv, or a 32 inch monitor so filming in low quality just for phone and monitors is not an option if you can afford the mavic 3 drone. But, from my 5 days experience with mini3 pro, i can say that images looks great on yhe 32 inch monitor. Never play them on the y5 inch uhd tv, but i am sure that they will look great too.

Most of the things you mentioned were also mentioned in the video… the 4K @ 30fps still shows great even on my 75” 8K TV, so I dont think the 5.1k resolution adds much value, the bigger sensor does make for a better image, and that’s it really, is it worth the extra money for the licensing, reduced portability and extra noise? Arguably not.

Who cares about the 249g anyways. Here in the US you register your drone at $5 bucks for a 3 year license. Doing it this way, you don't have to care about going over the 249g or not. There is also legislation on getting that 249g limit up to 1 Kilogram. Which would open the door to many other DJI drones which wouldn't require remote ID. I hope many more of us fight for this because it would be a huge help to the drone community no matter what type of drone you fly!

Hey Saint Kenny, I do agree to some extent. Larger drones up to 1kg do perform better in Strong winds, and can carry bigger, more advanced tech. But as tech gets better and smaller, over time the Mini drone’s will eventually be all that’s needed even for High end projects. If I had the spare cash, I would probably pick up the Mavic 3 Classic… what drone/s you currently using?
