    Finally an upgrade worth talking about!

    The detail jump from 1x to 3x is not just a bump, it's order of magnitude increased detail. I may have to grab PanoramaStudio 3 Pro just for this single purpose. Amazing.

    Hard case recommendation for Air 3

    I see a number of OG Mavic 3 cases on sale now that manufacturers made new inserts with additional space for Mavic 3 Pro's camera module. They can just make those and include a small foam piece for buyers with Mavic 3. I'm getting ready to part with the Mavic 3 since I have the Pro and Air 3...

    Air 3 top speed in normal mode 12m/s

    It was that speed in Normal on the Mavic Air 2. They raised it for Air 2S. Can easily be raised in Firmware. Can the user raise it in the speed settings? (Gain and EXP)

    Observations and Issues First Flight

    Same on Mavic 3 Pro. Unless you use Explorer Mode. Also that speed in Normal was the same with Mavic Air 2. They raised it for Air 2S. Csn easily be done in Firmware. Can the user raise it in the speed settings (Gain and EXP) I'll check myself if UPS ever gets here (out for delivery "by 7 pm" -...

    Air 3 Release date Wed. June 28?

    That would be the 3500mAh yes? The 3750mAh are 90-115, if you can find them. Then agsin they run a lower voltage so you can barely tell them apart. With the Air 3, I am hoping for substantial flight times, if it's in par with my Mini 3 Pro (plus battery) , Mavic 3 and 3Pro, all next level. All...

    I did about 2 hours ago, lol.

    Air 3 Release date Wed. June 28?

    Yep. I'm figuring $150-200 over Air 2S, around-there, depending on Camera mostly.

    Air 3 Release date Wed. June 28?

    Aww, why stop now, lol? I needed an Air 2S for my Insta360, abd I have Mavic 3 Pro and Mini 3 Pro. Sent the Air 2S back... TODAY. Had a feeling it was about to happen... come on credit! Lol

    MAVIC 3

    Yep, slightly different design than the foam that comes on Mavuc 3/Mavic 3 Classic. I used the one for Mini 3 Pro, to hold the gimbal while mounting the cover. Perhaps twice. The problem with using foam behind the gimbal is that it's easy to forget it's there; its not apparent when you put the...

    MAVIC 3

    What picture? There is nothing physically visible. When you power down the drone, the gimbal centers and "mildly" locks in place. The 1st 2 Mavic 3's I had needed a fair amount of force to move it out of the locked position. My current one needs onky a mild bump or movement to free up...

    M3P hard case

    It's taller as well. From photos it appears to stand at least .5 inches taller to accommodate that massive gimbal. Be prepared to do extensive cutting, and if the foam depth isn't there... I will absolutely include the PGYTECH case with my sale of the M3, as well as the convertible bag I used...

    Graduated ND filters for Mini 3 Pro and Mavic 3 Classic now available

    I bought these sometime in December. I would love a set for Mavic 3, but Freewell only makes them for the Classic. strange usage of the word "Classic" being as its the newer model 🤔 FYI Amazon has them for the same $39. I like this set. It is useful for Mini 3 Pro. I like that they can be...

    Mavic 3 graduated ND filter?

    I want a set for Mavic 3 (standard, not Classic - strange usage of the word "Classic" being that it came out later) I have a pair for Mini 3 Pro. I am not clear on how the numbers are determined other than higher=darker. The Freewell ones for Mini 3 rotate to support portrait/landscape...

    Can anyone recommend a nice case for the Classic?

    Everyone - or MOST everyone has a favorite case, as this thread illustrates. I will throw in the PGYTECH "Safety Carrying Case" as it is tough, waterproof (actual IP Rating) and well laid out. It also supports 5 batteries. Exactly the number I have, lol. https://a.co/d/7DaQLyf Look at that...

    Convince me of which one to buy...please

    Tough choice. They each have their strengths. Mini 3 Pro is sub-250 and less restricted in some areas, and situations. Air 2S is older and not getting much in the way of new firmware or features but more robust. While they both fly the same list of flights: Video, Photo, Quickshots...
