How long can you fly mini 3?

[BeticusMagnus]

I fly mapping projects which need more than 1 or 2 batteries back2back without any overheating problems

I have had my Mini 3 on and waiting for take off to capture events for extended periods of time and actually received a camera overheat warning. I had to shut down completely for a cool down period. So, leaving the UAS on for extended periods without flying appears to be a problem.



At the back of my UAS, there is a USB-C port that I thought that I could plug into AC power and perform a battery hot swap. Much to my chagrin - this wasnt the case. I believe that is purely a data port.



Does anyone know of a method to hot swap batteries on a DJI MINI 3?

Very much depends on ambient temps. I can see this happening if hovering for a long time in warm/hot weather.

Can't be done.
