    Considering downsizing to a Mini 3 Pro

    I too did exactly what you propose to do. I have owned the original mavic pro, the air and the mavic 2 pro with smart controller. Long story short, I very much like this mini 3 pro and the DJI RC and will not miss my previous kit. Especially because it is so quiet with a low frequency pitch...

    DJI Smart Controller has less range / power in CE mode than Normal RC

    I recently went to Canada and was very disappointed with the range of my M2P with my SC. I realized I was in CE territory and wondered if the M2P switched from FCC to CE despite no internet connection. I can’t compare the distance to the standard remote or even confirm it switched to CE, but...

    Thinking about an osmo pocket or gopro gimbal...???

    I'd consider a Hero 7. Amazing stability and you can get them for 299 if you have any old crappy digital camera, working or not. https://shop.gopro.com/tradeup

    Does Smart Controller record photos and Video on it's card or do you still have to transfer from Drone MicroSD?

    I don't get high resolution video on SC but I do get raw photos and jpegs.

    DJI Smart Controller - hard shell case

    Plenty of room in case. I actually put a small hand towel on top of SC to make snug. Then available for cleaning screen and filters.

    Just put my drone in the lake now I'm trying to find it need help

    My experience is everyone helps because most know your pain. I do. I've: 1) run my mp pro into side of my house while flying in sport mode (refresh). 2) flown backwards into hill (no damage but hard to access and locate). 3) flown in to river requiring scuba gear to get it out (refresh)...

    I checked and confirmed the DJI app find my drone feature included the spot where it hit the water and my location. I am the blue fit that is partially under the done icon.

    Just put my drone in the lake now I'm trying to find it need help

    I sunk and found my drone. As I recall GO4 App using find my drone feature provided both the last known spot and where I currently was. I just zoomed in and tried to keep my blue dot at last known location. It was amazingly accurate.

    Micro USB port not holding cord to charge

    I've had numerous refresh claims and all required between 5-9 days door to door. But your problem, I think, will be that refresh does not apply to controllers. I'm sure someone else will confirm if that is true or not. Thunderdrones may be a good option. Good luck.
