DJI MINI 4 PRO VS. DJI MAVIC 3 | Which camera is better?... 

I think it'd be good if it was in 4K given it's literally a camera comparison test

Crappy 1080p! Is this a joke? You need to change you channel name to 'The low res 1080p Drone Geek' Your video is actually saying for example at 3:50 Mavic 3/4k at 60fps. And yet you upload in 1080p? WTF man! I wont be clicking on any of your other videos.

I think you're a complete knob! ..Uploading in shitty 1080p doing 4 k comparison videos! i mean Crappy 1080p!..its so yesterday..like your channel! Is this a joke? You need to change you channel name to 'The low res 1080p Drone Geek knob' Your video is actually saying for example at 3:50 Mavic 3/4k at 60fps. And yet you upload in 1080p? WTF man! I wont be clicking on any of your other videos. THUMBS DOWN! But I guess you already realise that looking at other comments and your bad attitude to them!

He doesn't know what 4k means...he is living in a state of denial uploading 4k comparison shots in 1080p...he must be either stupid of doesn't give a fuck, probably both!

Plenty of other videos for you to watch. Instead of being a dick, you could just move along and find one that meets your standards. 😉

@@TheDroneGeek What a complete Knob you are! 'The crappy 1080p drone knob'. Thats your new channel!

@@TheDroneGeek Wow that was harsh. I believe it was simply constructive criticism and not an attack. I was thinking the same thing, but you're right, there are plenty of resources out there. With that being said, I enjoyed your content and think you had some really good points. However, your response to that viewer was unfortunate.

Just LAANC when flying downtown. The toughest part is avoiding flying over people. Steer clear of Broadway - you’re asking to break the OOP rule there. I stuck to launching and flying a block away at minimum. But in terms of restrictions, the most you have to worry about are TFRs for events at Nissan Stadium across the river and VIP visit/Emergency Response situations. On an average Tuesday though, just be prepared to file LAANC…once you get the all clear, you’re set to go!

That's completely up to you and your creative mind. No recommendation I make could possibly cover every possible scenario. Do your due diligence before flying (check airspace, stadium schedule, etc.) and take your drone and go once you have everything in order. Sometimes the best inspiration hits you once you have the drone in the air!

@@TheDroneGeek AMEN to THAT my Brotha!

There are seriously very few downsides and so many upsides to the Mini 4 Pro. It’s my favorite GPS drone to date - including the Mavic 3. Just fun to fly and extremely capable!

What’d you watch the video on?

@@TheDroneGeek computer (with 32" 4K screen) any reason you only uploaded in 1080p when you're doing a 4K picture quality test?

Check the Air Control app. There is controlled airspace around the area in which I was flying, but I did not enter those airspaces. The Nashville International Airport is 7.1 miles from the area in which I was flying my drone, so I’m also outside of the 5 mile radius. Even still, if I were within controlled airspace, I could still apply for LAANC and fly anyway. Then consider that the “Bat Tower” is a significantly tall structure and that I’m flying under Part 107 (since my channel is monetized) and now I’m able to fly in the immediate area of that building at the same altitude as the highest point of the structure plus 400 feet. Nashville is one of the easier cities to fly in. The biggest challenge is not flying over people since Broadway is usually so crowded, but there is a little park across from Bridgestone Arena that is less busy than the main drag as well as a park across the river next to Nissan Stadium that affords me the same luxury. Just gotta plan ahead on stuff like this and a whole world of opportunity can sometimes present itself!

@@TheDroneGeek ahhhh I see

First, to answer your question, yes -- your Mini 4 Pro is always broadcasting Remote ID and as of the posting of this comment, there is no way to switch it on and off. That said, as long as you are flying in accordance to FAA regulations as well as obeying TFRs and the rules within a given controlled airspace, you can fly over any stadium you want to fly over if it is possible and/or approved by the right people. Check your Air Control app for information about the airspace around that stadium. If you are in class G airspace, the only thing you need to think about is the potential for any games to be played there. You are not allowed to fly your drone over that stadium one hour prior to, during, and one hour after a game at an NFL stadium/arena. As long as it is more than an hour before the game starts or more than an hour after it concludes, you are clear to fly given the airspace is good to fly in. If you are in controlled airspace, remember to always get LAANC before conducting a mission and to adhere to the rules under which you are operating your drone (either Part 107 or TRUST). Good luck and happy flying!

@@TheDroneGeek if you don’t mind me asking, to “who” is a persons drone always broadcasting “to”??? The FAA or the police? And how would they know “who” said drone belongs to if it’s not registered? ( I didn’t register my Mini 3 Pro that I sold last Wednesday. Purchased it from DJI on August 17th ). Thanks Bro!

@BlackPanther-yv7ib it broadcasts openly. Anyone with access to a remote ID app (which is everyone with a smart device or the internet) can access that information. And I believe the remote ID broadcast doesn’t require you have it registered with the FAA. It transmits your location while flying and the drone’s location in the airspace. I imagine identifying you is as simple as viewing the information associated to your DJI account and potentially the drone’s serial number.

@@TheDroneGeek I see….. My Mini 4 Pro arrived earlier this morning as I was our running errands! I got the Fly More Combo Plus. I also purchased the 3 pack DJI ND filters. Which filter should I leave on? 16 or 64? I’ve seen on videos that ND 32 filter was best. ( so i figure you will say the 64 ) What is your take on which ND filter number I should leave on? Thanks!

@BlackPanther-yv7ib ND filters will change with lighting conditions. Be prepared to switch them a lot if you plan on using them.

Nope! When flying Part 107 you can actually exceed 400 feet around structures of a significant height like the AT&T tower. Meaning, again as long as I am flying a Part 107 operation, I can fly my drone to the highest point on the tower and then exceed that point by an additional 400 feet. This rule does NOT apply to controlled airspace, but downtown Nashville is outside of the BNA controlled airspace, so I am able to take advantage of this rule.

@@TheDroneGeek got it. I still need to take 107 exam. But you still could have glued a Minifig pilot to the top the drone!!!!

That’s the beauty of photo/video. A lot of it is subjective. The Mini 4 Pro is a really great drone in both categories, but there are some obvious limitations to it. Sensor size and fixed aperture being my chief complaints. But even considering those limitations, it still out punches just about everything not equivalent to a Mavic or “higher” in performance category. I love mine!

@@TheDroneGeek thanks for the input! Did you use the same aperture on both flights when testing as well as the exact same flight path? The Mini Pro looked like it was more zoomed out with a lower aperture than the Mavic 3... maybe thats why it appeared slightly less cinematic to me? Not really sure. And online they're saying they have the same sensor size... thats a bit shocking to me I thought they were different.

@Truth7860 the apertures were both set to the same settings as well as shutter speeds. I had to jack the shutter speed wayyyy up high to achieve a balanced exposure though. This is also likely why things don’t look as cinematic as you might be accustomed to. Anyone that tells you the Mavic 3’s sensor is the same size as the Mini 4’s is on crack. Create distance between yourself and them…immediately 😂

@@TheDroneGeek I totally agree.. I can easily visualize that it's a smaller sensor on the mini 4 pro. Google is full of misinformation (as usual lol). Thanks for the quick replies! Love your content and how you explain everything!

@Truth7860 thank you for watching and taking the time to comment! I appreciate it a ton!

Probably has less to do with my quality and more to do with your dogshit internet connection. 👌🏻

Please seek help with the Anger issues. It might be from a health condition.@@TheDroneGeek

Yeah, the health issues are you dumbshits 😂

@@TheDroneGeek hahahaha you are funny.... But it seems the dog shited on your attitude ..
