Note: most customers choose the DJI Mini 3 Fly More Combo because of its longer flight time thanks to the 2 extra batteries.
With the DJI Mini 3 + Remote Controller, you can easily fly if you have little experience with drones. Thanks to obstacle detection, the drone is suitable for beginner drone pilots. The drone recognizes obstacles and flies around them automatically. This prevents collisions with a tree while landing, for example. Thanks to the low weight of 249g, you can effortlessly take the drone on your trips. You can collapse it to a compact size of 14.8x9cm, so it fits in your carry-on luggage. With a fully charged battery and ideal weather conditions, you can fly for up to 38 minutes. Strong wind and a low outdoor temperature result in a shorter battery life.
Image quality and functions
You can make smooth videos in 4K resolution at 30 fps. This way, you make recordings of special natural areas on vacation or a sporty bike route. Videos have a large dynamic range and realistic colors when you record in HDR. You can even see details in dark shadows this way, for example. If you record videos for social media, you can make vertical recordings thanks to the True Vertical Shooting function. The gimbal rotates by 90 degrees in this mode, so you can capture vertical recordings without quality loss that are suitable for sharing via Instagram or TikTok afterwards.
Functions
The app allows you to set different recording modes such as the Rocket function. This makes the drone fly up, so the image slowly zooms out. This ensures cinematic images. The 3-axis image stabilization prevents shocks and vibrations in your videos. This allows you to get stable footage, even when there's wind. The drone can withstand wind gusts of up to 38km/h.
Laws and regulations
In 2021, new European drone legislation came into effect. This means that drone pilots must register themselves if they own a drone that weighs more than 250g or has a camera. They receive an operator number that needs to be attached to their drone and clearly visible. This drone weighs less than 250g, so you don't need a drone course. You do need to register the drone and request an operator number.
