Firmware 0500?

[Filmarik]

So, what is the concensus on the latest Mavic 3 Pro aircraft FW released a few months ago??
Have you all here upgraded or ignored it? If you did upgrade, have you noticed anything good or bad??
I am still on 0300 and sitting on the fence whether to upgrade or not..

Came out closer to Christmas; not really much of an upgrade so pretty harmless. I always accept the upgrades (eventually).

No issues with it, a small update with no changes

 

[Filmarik]

Just updated and tested in flight. Have not noticed any difference. Perhaps that is a positive

I recently sold my Mini 4 Pro and "Upgraded" to the Mavic 3 Pro.

I do miss some features though, so im hoping on a firmware update to implement the new Active Track and being able to transfer files from the MicroSD card while the drone is turned off. These are very nice features that i now miss.

You can transfer the files using the Quick Transfer switch on the splash screen

Does it work with a computer i.e. MacbookPro or PC?

Only to a device with Fly installed.

Well, that's more or less renders this feature useless for anyone wanting to use a computer for editing. Pulling the card out of M3P is a pain unless the battery is removed. Transfer with the drone off would be actually very nice. I did not know the Mini 4 could do that.

Unless you are leaving the battery in for charging without a hub, while removing the battery for recharging, swap microSD cards before inserting a fully charged battery. No problems that way.

Yeah, surely there is a simple and practical solution to this "problem". It makes me wonder though that the DJI designers did not realise that placing the card slot where they did was not going to work all that well...
At the end of the day it is more of a minor inconvenience rather than a big problem

On the Air 3, DJI moved the card slot and the USB C connector to below the inserted battery, rather than above, which appears to allow easier card removal with the battery inserted. They learn from their mistakes, and are always improving on their designs.
