Okay, now that the Mini 3 Pro has officially been released. Will you buy it?

[Faster]

does the mini 2 have lights? sorry i'm new to the DJI world so far I've been disappointed (no waypoints, no still photo zoom) and awed in equal measure

Mini2 has no lights but is has 2x digital zoom on stills.

 

[Killowatt]

Yes I bit, and my son wants my almost new mini 2. Might work out well.

 

[Korrd]

You mean the FPV Goggles V2? Doubt they ever will add support for that.

This is the only thing so far that'll make me buy a new drone nowadays, since the goggles' flying experience is unique.

I'm curious how many of you are interested in this drone.

Specs list:

DJI Mini 3 Pro - Specs - DJI

The mini-sized, mega-capable DJI Mini 3 Pro is just as powerful as it is portable. Weighing less than 249 g and with upgraded safety features, it's not only regulation-friendly, it's also the safest in its series. With a 1/1.3-inch sensor and top-tier features, it redefines what it means to fly...

Intro Video:

I fell in love with the DJI Mini 3 after watching the intro video (which was beautifully made I might add). The price is right, but I'm still attempting to learn all the tricks of the Mini 2, and now I'm down with some sort of nerve thing. I will definitely keep an eye on the Mini 3 for the future.

I just bought my third mini 3 pro, this time with a pricing error (payed the price for the one without the screen remote, but the article is the one with the screen remote)!
I’ll cancel the others once the first gets here. Hoping it’s the cheaper one lol

 

[Yeunglings]

I would have been getting it because of all the upgrades but a $300( roughly 66%) price increase compared to the Mini 2? Not for me. Dont get me wrong, there are some big feature enhancements, but the price bump is out of line in my opinion. Now if they offer the Fly More Combo at a reasonable price increase that might be a different story.

 

[jencarta]

Yes! Ordered one and sold my Mini 2!

Intro Video:

I took one look at the Mini 3 Pro bottom view (underside pic from DJI site). The camera juts out past the frame, and there is absolutely NO protection for the camera in the event of a frontal crash (except for whatever impact the arms will absorb before they shear or break). I'm afraid to even THINK how much a replacement cam would cost.
I'm sure it's just a matter of time before someone posts an ad on Amazon for an attachable gizmo to help protect the camera. Any-hoo...count me out on this one.

 

[neodraig]

Yes, I ordered it with the RC controller.
Received it yesterday.
I can't use it though as it can't be activated yet ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[Rogerc]

Will not buy a DJI drone until they clean up their act. Drones that don’t work. Not putting in waypoints that were on drones five years ago. Pricing drones way above what they are worth. have to fix the Mavic three problems and give What was promised. I work hard for my money and am tired of not getting what was promised. The M3 was my last straw.

 

[KLRSKIR]

Purchased with the RC and the Fly More Plus combo. Patiently waiting... Estimated ship date 5/31.

 

[JWray]

Done, with RC controller and fly more plus

 

[rigor]

mines ordered

 

[Brigs66]

Not until its confirmed it will work with my Samsung A52 phone...I had no end of problems trying to find a cheaper Android phone that would work with my Mini 2...

 

[CactusJackSlade]

You mean the FPV Goggles V2? Doubt they ever will add support for that.

Yes, those goggles... and why they won't make them compatible is beyond me.. one of the main reasons I did not buy the M3 either. Is there a technical reason? I was under the impression the Mavic 3, Mini 3 and the FPV were all on the same version of Ocusync?

 

[KennethH]

If it were not for the fact that I just bought a DJI Mini 2 less than two months ago (my first drone at age 73), I would buy the DJI Mini 3 Pro. I'm an easy touch, and just watching a couple videos on the images, and the features, sold me. First I have to wear out the Mini 2, and still find a place to fly it besides my backyard.

 

[Rchawks]

I did a preorder on the rc w/screen and large battery combo. I will likely keep the order in place since it's a Happy Birthday to me present. I don't know yet.

 

[Rilot]

Not until its confirmed it will work with my Samsung A52 phone...I had no end of problems trying to find a cheaper Android phone that would work with my Mini 2...

Why wouldn't it? It's using the same version of the Fly app.

 

[Cymru]

Strongly tempted here.
Its a significant camera downgrade to my current M2P but would allow me to fly it in areas and situations where my current M2P (under A2) is illegal.

So a lower quality backup drone which enables me to get material in places where i couldn't before.

 

[globetrotterdrone]

@Cymru
Considering the sensor size, the M2P is still superior but with the progress in technology, I doubt you really see any difference to the worse to be honest.

Furthermore, f1.7 and true vertical shooting is something worth mentioning too. As much as I love my M2P with the SC, as you said, A2 and soon A3 are j ust a turn-off for the hobby big time. Can have the best camera in the sky, if I might encounter problems legally, I am really not that ease to fly happily.
