HI All I just received my DJI Mini 3 and also the 2y DJI Care Refresh (thanks to answers on my last post). BTW Is the DJI CAre refresh ivoid if you do not have the latest version of firmware and Fly app ? First let me explain the context of my questions. I have still a Mini2, flying it with...

Hi Everyone I have ordered on Amazon an DJI Mini 3. And I would like to insure it against damage and fly-away. I asked for a quote to Coverdrone, and it is cheaper than DJI Care Refresh. I guess that the diff of prices is based on differences on coverage, but I could not find them. Based on...

Hello I want to switch from the Mini 2 to the Mini3. I looked on Amazon and found Refurbished "Very good state, minor esthetic defect" for around 70USD cheaper than a new one.... almost the price of a 2nd battery. But I am a bit worried because you can only detect defects while flying it...

Hello, For more than 3-4 years I have got the Mini 2. I am thinking of upgrading to the Mini 3 (not the Mini 3 Pro). I am doing mostly photography, and sometimes printing photos 30x40 cm (11.8 x 15.7 inch), and it is usually OK, but I feel I reached the limit... and I cannot crop. The Mini 3...

HI, I just saw your video on Iceland. We plan to go there next August 2025. So I have a bunch of questions, if you do not mind : - which month was it, and how long did you stay - I guess you had a rental car. To go to the places of your video, is a standard car OK, or should I rent a 4x4 drive...

Hi, I can confirm what is stated above for drone registration. In addition all tourist spots are usually no flying zone, and it makes sense as a lot of tourists are there. I am living in the Loire Valley, and it is true for Loire Valley castles. For instance, you have also some helicopters...

Hey, great picture. Went there 20 years ago,... no drone, nor digital photo... too bad. Did you go to Everest BC too ?

Just come back from 2 weeks+ in BC. Because it was out first time, we targeted most toristic places. so we spent lots of time in national parks in east BC and Alberta : I did not use my Mini 2. Also spent 3 days in Vancouver island, but a bit too windy. Bottom line.. my Mini2 stayed...

Hi All I will fly over to Vancouver end of this month, and bring my Mini 2 with me. From what I saw on this forum, there is no registering or license requied for flying the Mini 2. I plan to drive to Revelstoke (for Revelstoke and Glacier Nl park), then Golden (for Yoko Ntl park, Lake...

Hi Maven users I use an Iphone SE 2022 on which I have installed boths apps : DJI Fly and Maven. When I use the Maven app, I have the red message on upper left saying : "Aircraft not connected", and in the setting, in front of "Overal status" , I have the message red "Error". I guess those 2...

@CJG Hi, No real tricks in fact I just use some specific spots (a tree, a house,..) so I know what to overlap. I prefer to overlap too much as anyway the software will find out what is overlapped... than forgetting a piece of the landscape

@CJG : That's a good question, and I have also this issue with the "Wide Angle" photoshot, and I do not know if the Mini 3 Pro sorts this problem out, as I do not think it is directly linked to the Mini model, but maybe more to the kind of photo. But Mini3 new owners might have the answer. So...

@patc45 Hi, let me later your thoughts after flying with the Mini 3 in our Loire valley. @Phantomrain.org . Yes Orleans, France is far from having the rythm and charm from New Orleans (and neither the climate..)... and neither the drone freedom you enjoy so far in the US :)

Thanks to @all for all your very interesting insights which are ALL of great value. And far from me to judge anyone. In one comment, there was the Mini3 Pro Plus battery : and that is true that it is a definite advantage. Because how many did I have to rush taking some picture as my battery was...

Hi, Beforehand, I want to emphasize that I DO NOT want to impose my way of thinking at all. Just want to share it... as it is always good to share diverse opinions. I am owning a Mini2, and as a subscriber of many drone youtubers, I have been submerged by all those Mini 3 reviews,.... So I asked...
