At a Glance
DJI Mini 3 Pro has just launched, and you might have some questions about this new product. In this article, we’ll go over its performance improvements, accessory kits, specifications, basic operations, and compatibility to help you better understand the product. Let’s get started!
Product Improvements
Compared with previous products, what upgrades does DJI Mini 3 Pro have?
Compared with DJI Mini 2 and Mavic Air 2, DJI Mini 3 Pro has improved battery life, intelligent features, video transmission, and a fully upgraded imaging system and visual sensing system.
Specifically: Inheriting the 249 g light and compact body of DJI Mini 2, DJI Mini 3 Pro comes with a 1/1.3-inch image sensor that supports native HDR. It supports three-directional obstacle sensing and the newly upgraded APAS 4.0 (Advanced Pilot Assistance Systems). DJI Mini 3 Pro’s battery life has been extended to up to 47 minutes.
* It supports DJI O3 FHD digital video transmission, ensuring a stable live feed at distances of up to 12 km. DJI Mini 3 Pro also supports intelligent features like FocusTrack, True Vertical Shooting, Timelapse, MasterShots, and High-Speed QuickTransfer. With the Intelligent Flight Battery Plus, flying constantly at 21.6 kph in windless conditions. With the Intelligent Flight Battery Plus (sold separately in selected countries), the aircraft will weigh more than 249 g, please check and strictly abide by local laws and regulations before flying.
Why does DJI Mini 3 Pro have an all-new look?
DJI Mini 3 Pro adopts a redesigned structure and form, bringing the following advantages:
1. Longer battery life at the same compact size: The new form and design allow the drone to carry larger propellers and improve the propulsion efficiency of the propellers and the aircraft, bringing longer battery life.
2. Broader environment sensing range: The new design enables the drone to carry sensors with a larger FOV, further increasing the sensing range and distance. DJI Mini 3 Pro thus provides more powerful visual sensing capabilities, improving flexibility and safety during flight and obstacle avoidance.
3. True Vertical Shooting and expanded axes: The new design allows users to get portrait shots without the need for digital cropping. Fewer gimbal limits mean more shooting angles and added creative freedom. During high-speed flight, the aircraft angle also has less restrictions on the gimbal and the shooting angle.
Compared with OcuSync 2.0, how has DJI O3 Video Transmission been upgraded?
The DJI O3 Video Transmission System uses an all-new solution and upgraded dual antennas to bring FHD video transmission at distances of up to 12 km (FCC compliant and with no obstructions). Additional anti-interference capabilities further improve transmission stability in cities and other complex environments.
How has the High-Speed QuickTransfer of DJI Mini 3 Pro been upgraded?
DJI Mini 3 Pro’s High-Speed QuickTransfer supports the fast transmission of photos and videos at up to 25MB/s. Mini 3 Pro also automatically chooses the fastest transmission solution according to your current wireless environment.
