DJI MINI 3 PRO – Everything You Need to Know

By  | 

Capture unforgettable content while on the move using smart features. From vertical video recording gimbals and MasterShots, to zoom capability and MasterShots – the Pro packs spectacular footage into a compact package.

Mini 3 Pro offers an impressive 34 minute flight time on standard battery, or 47 minutes with Intelligent Flight Battery Plus installed, making it ready to tackle your next adventure.

Camera

The DJI MINI 3 PRO is an ultralight drone from DJI designed specifically for novice pilots. While targeting novices, its camera quality and smart features don’t disappoint either, with an excellent 1/1.3-inch sensor and top-tier specs. Furthermore, this model stands out as being regulation-compliant thanks to enhanced flight and safety features.

DJI has unveiled their first dual camera setup in one of their smaller drones – featuring a wide-angle main camera and optical zoom telephoto lens – with a 3-axis mechanical gimbal for smooth video and still photography. The main camera offers resolution of up to 12MP effective photosites at 2.4mm effective photosites resolution; 48MP when scaled up!

When it comes to video, the Mini 3 Pro offers impressive recording abilities: 4K at 30fps and 1080p at 120 fps for buttery slow-mo. Furthermore, this camera supports high dynamic range images (HDR) capture as well as RAW capture for increased post-processing flexibility.

D-Cinelike technology supports D-Cinelike mode on this drone, using 10-bit color depth for maximum shadow and highlight recovery in post-processing, giving greater creative control of your images. Furthermore, its built-in panorama modes such as Sphere 180deg Wide can be activated simply by pressing shutter button twice while in selfie mode.

Auto mode on the Mini 3 Pro tends to overexpose slightly, so switching to manual and using the histogram to ensure optimal exposure every time is highly recommended if flying on bright days or sunset when sunlight might reflect off roads and sidewalks.

DJI has upgraded the Mini 3 Pro’s obstacle avoidance sensors and implemented an intelligent tracking feature known as ActiveTrack that enables it to follow subjects at different speeds and angles without losing track. ActiveTrack even follows running subjects as demonstrated in this video clip.

Battery

DJI MINI 3 PRO features an advanced battery for extended flight times and temperature control system to prevent overheating of its drone, by sensing ambient temperature changes and powering down automatically if they reach unsafe levels.

Additionally, the DJI MINI 3 PRO features an HDR feature which optimizes image details when shooting video or taking photographs at frame rates over 30fps for enhanced visual quality.

Will the DJI MINI 3 PRO battery work with the DJI MINI 4 Pro? Yes, these batteries should work without issue on both models; their only difference in terms of voltage should not pose much of a hurdle as most drones do not charge their batteries all the way back up before placing it back into use.

The DJI MINI 3 PRO features a new vision sensor design which provides increased sensing capabilities, improving flight and obstacle avoidance performance and flexibility, while simultaneously creating more opportunities for creative aerial shots with more gimbal angles and creative aerial compositions.

This drone features the innovative O3 video transmission system, featuring dual antennas to ensure stable live footage at distances of up to 12 kilometers and intelligent features like Timelapse, True Vertical Shooting and High-Speed Quick Transfer. Furthermore, anti-interference capabilities help prevent interference from obstacles or other drones.

Your drone can be charged using either its intelligent flight battery, or by using a DJI Two-Way Charging Hub (sold separately). For optimal charging speed and time efficiency, we advise using a charger capable of producing 30W power or higher; otherwise it may negatively impact flying time and battery charging efficiencies.

Flight Modes

In addition to its impressive image quality, the Mini 3 Pro features intelligent flight modes designed to help you create amazing content. FocusTrack, MasterShots, Hyperlapse and QuickShots will help you craft professional-grade footage even as a new pilot.

The Mini 3 Pro features a tiltable gimbal of up to 60 degrees, making low-angle shots easy. In addition, its new flight mode known as Point of Interest lets you fly directly to an area and capture video sequences around it automatically.

ActiveTrack 4.0 is another exciting feature available on the Mini 3 Pro that helps it track objects and avoid obstacles while keeping its camera focused on your subject matter. This makes for an excellent feature if you are just learning how to pilot, or want your drone for action sports and other high-speed activities.

The Mini 3 Pro stands out from its predecessor with its Pro moniker clearly displayed on its wings, offering improved image and video quality as well as faster maximum flying speeds, portrait-oriented remote controller use and increased maximum flying speeds – an important feature for creators seeking more detailed videos or creating innovative edits.

The DJI Mini 3 Pro boasts a maximum flight speed of 57 kilometers per hour and can fly for 34 minutes when using the Intelligent Flight Battery or 47 with Intelligent Flight Battery Plus. Furthermore, this aircraft performs admirably against wind with an impressive Level 5 wind resistance rating.

As with other Mini drones, the Pro version comes equipped with an intuitive and simplified DJI Fly app that displays all photo, video and intelligent flight mode settings in an easily navigable fashion on one screen. Furthermore, this application enables users to modify different settings such as photo sizes/formats/calibration frequencies etc. Additionally, D-Cinelike (a semi-professional flat image shooting profile that offers greater post production flexibility and color possibilities) is supported as an optional shooting profile.

Remote Control

The DJI Mini 3 Pro includes the RC-N1 Controller which is similar to that of Mavic 3, Air 2S and Mini 2. Although smaller in size than its counterpart RC-N2, it still provides great features including a clear 5.5″ touchscreen with 700-nit brightness for easy operation and dedicated phone holder support. Furthermore, this lightweight yet portable system weighs just 390g combined (drone + controller).

The 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor captures more light, producing images with true-to-life colour reproduction. Its dual native ISO provides superior image quality while HDR shooting is available through Single Shot mode for both photo and 4K video capture.

Mini 3 Pro not only features enhanced battery life and intelligent features, but it also boasts enhanced visual sensing systems and a camera gimbal with 180deg tilt – giving confident flying even in challenging conditions. Furthermore, the APAS 4.0 system automatically detects obstacles for flight stability.

Mini 3 Pro’s maximum flight time of 34 minutes makes it perfect for spontaneous adventures and short trips, while its high-speed Wi-Fi transmission supports video download at up to 25Mbps, so you can share footage immediately.

DJI’s advanced flight control system (APAS 4.0) automatically recognizes and tracks subjects using intelligent sensors in its gimbal gimbals to allow you to focus solely on taking stunning photographs. You don’t have to worry about flying smoothly; simply focus on finding that perfect shot!

When it’s time to share your latest creation, the RC-N1 controller features an HDMI output so that it can connect directly with either your computer or TV for live streaming and recording, plus has a USB-C port for charging purposes.

The Mini 3 Pro’s newly engineered gimbal provides access to an array of intelligent functions, such as True Vertical Shooting and MasterShots – an automated sequence of professional moves designed to quickly create cinematic videos instantly.

This new model boasts an enhanced FPV system, complete with 720p/25fps HDMI output for more immersive FPV experiences. Compatible with DJI Goggles Integra or RC Motion 2, as well as third-party FPV glasses, you can experience them all!
