Please be advised if you don’t already know that the Mini 4 Pro manual has been updated v 1.4 2024.06. The new version contains a section on Enhanced Transmission referring specifically to the DJI Cellular Dongle 2. I purchased the dongle which has just arrived and which I will be testing over the next few days for anyone interested.

could you pls share your experience with the cellular dongle 2, if you have done any flights with your new gadget, so far?
I have got the latest version of the manual thank you. Also I have flown a good few times with the dongle now and would make the following comments:
As I live in a rural area there are many blind spots with regard to 4G coverage. Often I begin to lose the 4G signal in some places and have to fly backwards to regain signal strength. I then look for a different route where 4G is strong. Sometimes I refer to a map of the area before flying as built up areas usually have a strong 4G signal. I’ve also found that flying above main roads gives good coverage. When/If you lose the 4G signal don’t panic as RTH works perfectly well. Also during the RTH 4G will be re-established and eventually O4 so you regain control of the drone no problem.
The first few times that I flew I had difficultly losing the O4 signal so that 4G would cut in but after many flights I have found ways to make the 4G active. When the 4G does take over it is seamless with no noticeable loss of image transmission etc.
