    Latest DJI Fly version not showing up on RC Controller

    Fly app for RC is a part of RC firmware. It always comes as firmware update with ~800MB size.

    MINI 3 PRO RANGE

    ~7.5KM (RTH kicked in due to battery level). FCC, DJI RC.

    Where was your Mini 3 Pro Manufactured?

    in Manual they write that shipped battery is in hibernation state, so no light is normal. It must be connected to charger to wakeup. So nothing wrong with this. Battery will go to this hibernate state again if not used about 60 days (IIRC), so will require to connect to charger again. RTFM :)

    DJI RC External Antennas

    I flew 7.5KM with DJI RC, FCC mode. I've climbed the mountain near the city (~500m height) and flew through the whole city and almost reached the other city, but Mini 3 Pro decided that battery level is low and activated RTH. Probably i could fly more far if not the battery limit..

    Why I think the mini 3 is better than the mavic 3

    M3 has side obstacle sensors AFAIK while M3P doesn't. That's a big game changer.

    Couple Mini 3 ?'s Compared to Mavic 3 Pro

    it seems when users started to report range problem, DJI didn't know the real cause of it (which was a bare bug in firmware), so they added this useless feature (turning off WiFi and BT) thinking it is the problem. Now, since they fixed the bug, I hope they will roll it back or at least give a...

    Mini 3 Pro: With or Without DJI RC controller (with built-in Screen)

    While it could be nice to have ability to install 3rd party apps, original app is supporting all features of Mini 3 Pro with adequate interface. What 3rd party app can offer? Some auto-pilot by way points? I don't need it. I enjoy manual fly.

    Mini 3 Pro: With or Without DJI RC controller (with built-in Screen)

    I have both RC and RC-N1. As many people wrote already, RC with screen is the best controller for Mini 3 Pro. Tried couple times RC-N1 and found it bulky and inconvenient. I'm a newbie with total flight about 100km only. Those who need maps while flying, how you use it? I clicked on map icon may...

    How do I get the MAP to populate on the DJI RC controller? (corrected title)

    Fully agree. There are many things can be improved like automatically stop with hovering with not enough battery in active tracking instead of returning to home. I know it can be switched manually, but i would prefer different behavior in different modes. It's nonsense to fly to home if drone is...

    How do I get the MAP to populate on the DJI RC controller? (corrected title)

    I have both RC and RC-N1. Tried couple times with RC-N1.. meh... not for me. Bulky inconvenient construction. RC is what i like. It's quicky ready - take out from bag and press the power. No wires, no fear of sudden incoming call. Just everything i need to fly. If you want connectivity while...

    Sunnylife DJI RC Hood

    Interest in DJI RC lanyard/strap bracket?

    I have 3D printer and i know problems of printed things. I wouldn't trust 3D printed hooks. It really doesn't worth the risk since you can buy lanyard with metallic screw hooks from Aliexpress or Amazon. Prices start from ~$5.

    Throw and Go Mini 3

    Can launch from hand without throwing if you can keep RC by one hand (using lanyard should help).

    Mini 3 Pro range is terrible (in Canada/FCC region)

    Those who have range issue: try force 2.4GHz and force 5GHz. 2.4GHz i think is quite busy band and may affect the range.

    Mini 3 Pro range is terrible (in Canada/FCC region)

    There is no FCC logo as far as i see. There is a sticker on box with CE and NCC. NCC is Taiwan analog of FCC. In communication i set "auto" frequency and drone choose 5.8GHz band. 2.4GHz is too noisy in my area according to graph on RC.
