    Love my Air 3, but man, this Mini 4 Pro...

    I was just playing with that! Tap where you wanted to center the spin. There’s a little blue circle? It works really, really nicely. And I apologize for not complimenting your church splat in a timely fashion! That is very, very very nicely done. I got too excited and ran off to the Luma app...

    Now, this is news I can use! Thank you! I’ll take a look!

    Thank you so much! In full disclosure, some of it was cruise control or POI with manual adjustments along the way. But yes – that amount of wind the Mini handles just fine.

    I get the sense that a fair number of restrictions started to get set at 250g around the world, and DJI quickly settled on 249 as their target for all Minis. I will let someone better at physics explain the effect of mass on damage potential!

    Exactly! And it looks like staying under 250g is pretty helpful in bringing a drone to a lot of places around the world (but not everywhere!).

    I've been flying the Air 3 since Day One. My point is: the Mini's better than you likely think it is.

    Mexico does not require permission to fly sub-250g drones. It's a relatively new change in their laws.

    Here's a shared album: https://www.icloud.com/sharedalbum/#B0n52rCrq1m2dJ Be gentle, everyone! This is my raw footage. It's not curated at all, nor has anything been color-corrected or anything like that. I was trying to get footage of the Chapultepec Castle to generate a "Gaussian splat" of...

    I bought the Air 3 as soon as it was available, moving up from a Mavic Air 2, and I've been very pleased with it. The firmware upgrades since its release have been terrific. But! My family was taking a trip to Mexico last month, and though I tried to get Mexican government permission to bring...

    Question about Flying in Winds

    Thank you for the specs. All I can tell you is that it was very impressive to see in the sky.

    Question about Flying in Winds

    That should be just fine. It’s not going to blow away. If you get it up 200 or 300 feet and it can’t hold a hover, which is unlikely, you might stop at those altitudes. Otherwise, go for it! The Mini 4 Pro doesn’t have the air resistance of the Air 3, but I have seen my Air 3 put itself at...

    Question about Flying in Winds

    Man, and once you get up around 4,000 feet, it gets really challenging.

    I was reading through to see if anyone made this point. This’ll get you out of a lot of trouble.

    Hey, thank you!
