Occusync 3 so that's good

EDIT: Form what i now read its unofficial, sorry, i was one premature soldier on that score lol...

Seems a bit lacking in details to me.     Im really hoping for a lot more like active track,   sensors,  vertical video,   panos etc.

It mentions Active Track, now called focus track.
Also they're pano shots going around.

Just seems that the leaflet doenst seem to advertise it properly.    I have no doubt it will do panos and other things just that they are not mentioned.  Surely it would call out the modes of focus track it supports.  This is after all a first drone for many people and some hand holding would normally be in order.

I think focus track is a package, I’ve seen pages like this done for comparison etc . They might be trying to keep just a few surprises back for release day ;+)

I am thinking once the mini launches with Focus track and its other features, the Fly app update will include waypoints for the Mavic 3. Maybe the update will push all at once.

Or its not official DJI and just something someone else has put together.    Its not far off what captain drone put out already.

I hope so Suren,   but I dont see why they wouldn't complicate matters for themselves.  And have they even officially confirmed waypoints is coming soon?

They posted about it in their Chinese forums that they will release these in Quarter 2, 2022. Dji is very complicated, they like stressing customers out

Well they still have a few months of q2 left.   

Every-time Ive worked on a product launch we had a cut off for features,  then bugs, then critical bugs before the product launched.  And then it was all hands on deck to get the product features to launch and other features were on hold until the product launched and we were happy there were no big issues to quash.     That was for a fortune 200 company so DJI may do it differently.  

O3 will be great.  Thanks for sharing Bashy.  

The strangest thing in the list is "Li-ion" batteries (unless it is a typo). They have not used Li-ion since Mini 1. But that might explain the existence of a bigger capacity battery, which probably would use Li-po cells instead...

Real or fake?
"Transmitter Power      2.4GHz"   - Transmitter power should be in Watts, not GHz which is frequency

Interesting, to me and compared to normal cameras, mobile, DSLR etc, focus Tracking is something entirely different, it's keeping the subject in focus whilst the camera (pans) tracks it, that's not the same as DJI's Active Tracking, although here FocusTrack is all one word but why after all this time would DJI now rename it? it just confuses the consumer or is it to set apart the big boys from the wee yin? I don't think its the 1st tie i read FocusTrack either and when i saw it before i thought, brill, that could be handy, especially at the track etc... but then i thought, it doesn't make a lot of difference unless the subject is up close, so...
Something else re the "leaflet", the more i look at it, the more it looks "home made". I don't know, it could be legit, the FocusTrack for one, and I'm not sure if I've ever seen DJI report distances like that, before i.e. including interference strong to weak, is that something new? and most of the info is already out there in the void, could the other few extras be guesses based on well, guessing? Thats the sceptic in me, could be well off base on all counts here, thoughts?

Yeah, i noticed that but I read it differently, they could be saying it like, Transmitter power on 2.4ghz...  
but i don't think that's right now you've mentioned it, reason being, 5.8 is just as good (distance) as 2.4, well, it is when in FCC at least or should i say it is that way when using the Phantom. Not sure eon the MIni as i have that in Auto, the Phantom is manually set to 5,8

The more i look, the more i pick fault, i cannot get my head around those distances with interference, since when does DJI put up the minimum and estimated distances? its normally like
Max Transmission Distance (unobstructed, free of interference)
10 km (FCC)
6 km (CE)
6 km (SRRC)
6 km (MIC)

why change that now, its not sitting right with me for sure

EDIT: just heard that its unofficial so take it with a pinch of salt folks until such time we hear from DJI at the release.

I guess if it had variable focus (like the Nano+) they would have been the advertising the auto focus method as well (again, like the Nano+).. So I guess "FocusTrack" is just another marketing profanity, like the "Quad" Bayer Of course I would rather be wrong and it actually is more than a new name for active track....

Dji launches the product then find the bugs and scramble to fix.

Shame its unofficial Bashy but I am now looking forward to HDR video.  

If they make it DJI FPV V2 Compatible I'm buying.

Options: Mini 3 Pro with no controller means you can probably use it with the DJI FPV V2 equipment.

omg....GPS+Galileo+BeiDou.....

uh, curious now about tine to get a GPS fix on the Mini3

I don't understand how Quickshots are allowed on drones without side sensors. Surely some novices are going to use them without checking the surroundings and how it works. No doubt probably at least a few thousand drones have been lost through a collision while using those modes.

I would only trust the Skydio 2 to use modes like that without issue with lots of light.

It is more than a new name. Its active track greatly improved and much much simpler and quicker to use. You could call it one touch AT.

Focus track has been out since Air2 its a much improved AT much simpler to use and nothing has been cut back .
With DSLRs you get face eye track etc that is a whole other kettle of fish.

The reason they single it out is because it’s probably the best feature on all their drones.

All military and law enforcements should have at least 1.

Thanks for the info, I didn't know what, why would they change the name, focus track makes no sense now active track on the other hand just sits right in all aspects, crazy world...

Heck, ya don't need  those modes to hit a tree brach, ya can do that quite easily without, ask me how I know...

What makes it easier to use? On my P4p ya just choose the active track, draw a box and hit go...

So you no longer have to go into your menu for focus track, so first no need to find it . You simply draw a box on your screen and all options pop up like circle track POI track track from right / from left/ behind/ in front. Its much quicker etc. if you’re used to AT a few minutes and you will be familiar.

It's indeed unfortunate mistakes have to always be made in the beginning.

I've never crashed 1 DJI drone but indeed hit some trees all the way to today but none has ever been put out of commission. Not even the props were significantly damaged.

I have indeed crashed many DIY drones throughout the years before getting into DJI with the Spark.

Ive lost about 2 or 3 props with the mini 2 and prob about the same with the P4P, with regards to the Mini 2, one time doing a manual, low orbit around a big Oak tree, suffice to say that there was a branch that i neglected to ess was going round. As for the P4P, I have an argument with a tall pine, it didn't crash that time, but i may have nicked a prop, that's using active track and i swung it round the wrong way, the post in is in the P4P section I also tried to go under a tiny bridge, the ceiling was only about 4ft above the water, i thought the ac was dropping so i overcompensated and hit the ceiling and ditched it in about 2ft of water, £180 battery up the swanny. Dried out the ac and all has been well since. I also hit a tree at about 40ft (est) up, lost a prop and a LED lense. Suffice to say, its been abused but flies 100% for a blind drunk man.... Bearing in mind that the P4P has side sensors too but they only work in tripod mode... :/ PS, also done a bit of grass cutting with the P4P, on purpose mind, got bored lol, tried it with the MIni 2 but the props close in and drops lol

Bluetooth, will it now be possible to transfer photos etc with Bluetooth ?

I will be a first time buyer and user....does dji have a pre order program or do I need to stay vigilant with updates...jc

No way to pre-order a product that has not been announced -- officially, the Mini 3 does not exist.

Once it has been officially announced (many speculate that happens 10 May) you can order one then.  I assume initially availability may be constrained.
