I’ve been flying a Mavic Pro and a Mini 3 Pro for about a month now. Seems like I’m putting more time on the Mavic, but my mind has it that everything about the Mavic Pro seems more consistent from one flight to the next. Perhaps it’s just all in my head, but it prompts me to ask you folks who have more experience with the Mini 3 Pro’s a few questions about the behavior of your craft. Here goes…
1) Strobes… do yours continue flashing for the duration of the flight, or do they go out at some point? I thought I saw a setting to turn them on and off, but couldn’t find it. Perhaps it is in the Mavic settings and not the Mini.
2) Yaw… seems like the setting for stopping yaw smoothly or abruptly keeps putting itself in smoother settings, which would be fine for cinematic mode (never used) but when I want the drone to stop rotating, I want it to stop NOW. Is it possible the settings only apply to the mode you’re in when it gets set?
3) Still missing the voice and collision avoidance buzzer/notifications from the remote. (Yes, I know how to use the mute and volume features on the settings panel) I tried resetting the remote with no luck to get the sounds back. I liked having the audible low battery notification better than relying on myself constantly looking at it. Has yours continued working? I’ve searched many forums for a resolution to this issue, and I’m not one single case was one ever identified and/or the OP never gave feedback as to what resolved the problem.
4) Precise landing… I swear I had and used that feature on this drone. However, i noticed rather imprecise landings and went into the settings to see if an update had turned off precise landings. Lo, I could never locate that option. I thought that (earlier) hovering at around 20 feet directly above my landing pad used to give me a notice that precise landing has been enabled, and that it always landed within a few inches of that spot when RTH was used. This is no longer the case. Am I confusing the Mini with my Mavic? Does your Mini 3 have precise landing?
Perhaps I’m just being thick headed and confusing features of both crafts and just can’t separate which one has which features. Am I the only one wondering about these things?
