I have noticed that OA is hit or miss as you approach low light, I don't believe there is any actual defined brightness point where it's disabled, I've tested a bit (slow and careful), though not extensive, and have seen OA work, and then moving ~ 25 feet away under foliage coverage at dusk and...

6 charge cycles - you'll easily run the 3 batteries each time you take it out (18-20 minutes per battery typical flight time), probably was only flown half dozen times= very lightly used batteries, voltage is good, my mini 2 batteries have north of 80 cycles each and going strong. I don't...

yes White is the way to go - I just tested a strobe over a lake with the mini 3, getting the signal, distance, strobe visibility and placement test done together. completley unobstructed, dark night, no moon, great visibility, got to the other side of the lake at ~1.8 miles, at about 200ft up...

I'd keep it, batteries are hard to find right now, I like the extra time I get with the plus batteries, but the 30 minutes I get with the stock battery is OK for a third battery - I'll probably buy 1 or 2 more plus batteries when they come available...

Testing a strobe the other night, with a very clear open line of sight, no obstructions at all, above a power corridor, I was able to clealrly see the strobe at 1 mile, and had plenty of signal on the RC, I could have gone farther with both signal and LOS but did not see the need to, I'm more...

If it was more hours / flights, I'd say it's rounding - I believe everything is rounded up, I have ~ 300 flights, so potentially ~ 300 minutes of difference - if you bring it up for 10 seconds it logs 1 minute, if you bring it up 1 minute 1 second it logs 2 minutes, etc

Today at Lunch - 2 batteries, 30 minutes each, No Hyper or anything - Started at RC at full 100% - 52% left on the RC after one hour of flying - (still had 28% left in each battery after 30 mins each) - I'm know I can run 3 batteries, but 4th 30 minute flight I'd be wary of - It does charge up...

I noticed that the RC does discharge faster than the RC-N1, only had it a few weeks, I have the Plus Batteries as well (arrived a week later), flew both Plus Batteries at about 32-35 minutes each, and the stock battery for about 25 minutes or so, and was down below 50% on the RC - I don't recall...

I'm seeing jpgs at 4-6MB from both the Mini 2 and the Mini 3, just a quick check, did not look at aspect ratio

I'm in agreement with the above, I had the single battery for a week and yes a pain to test everything like that, Plus batteries showed up just before the weekend, and getting easily 35 minutes per Battery with time to spare, got the low battery warning around 32 min or so, (about 20%, but 20%...

For what it's worth that happened to me after a firmware update, and I know I never changed it to .265

So I just received the Plus battery kit for the M3P - The Aircraft showed up a week earlier, so was stuck with the one battery for a week (which holds a decent charge of ~ 30 min or so), charged the Plus batteries up and took first couple flights today, first flight was very comfortable at 35...
