thanks Hallmark.  so far Im not impressed with the controller,   Its very plastic,  and the gimbals feel like a toy.

He does appear to holding the remote wrong.    But rainmakers review on the island was worse,  break up just before 1000m

Only to let the M2Z  have a look from a field away. Not as a spectator

Ah,  gotchya.   Thought it was weird you wanted to watch people rub their balls.

Yes, I agree with it pointing up, hard to tell whether he's even aligned horizontally or not without the radar on... Still, for a 12km drone, that is absolute pants....

Especially the over-60s

Im just praying the new firmware that dropped today will help.  

Blériot53 Posted at 5-17 01:47

Oh its one of those today then.  

DAFlys Posted at 5-17 02:06

Yep, the old crumblies doddering around the field

It had better, if not, I hope the N1 is better else DJI are in for a world of hurt what with stating 12km lol

Cheers bigplumps.  It’s going to take longer than that to charge the batteries.    But I did find a nice little spot inside the battery slot for my registration so that’s a bonus.

Congrats! Hope you could do a comparison in terms of range between the  RCN1 and the RC that comes with it. I've done a small range test with it (RC with the screen) and ended up with around 650m before the video transmission got laggy. Although take it with a grain of salt cause I was flying over houses.  

happy flying, i placed an order with Argos this morning to collect later to day, just been sent a refund... gutted... Placed the order at 4:35am as well... what a waste of time.

Placed mine just after 4am. Being checking hourly through the night for it to appear and picked up at 9am when doors opened.    They are out of stock round here until next week.

I only have one battery so will try the range on the rc with screen today and take it from there.

Well mine just got so hot doing the firmware update it refused to charge again,   Had to remove the battery and wait for it to cool down a bit,  and that’s only on a 20w charger

Congrats DA.    I'm really happy you got a launch day Mini 3 Pro.  

Can't wait for DJI to ship out my order.

Cheers DT.    So far I’m really liking the drone. Feels nicely made but the controller feels like a toy, especially the gimbals.  

I hope I can get the charging hub soon as it’s overheated on me charging directly and it’s only 22c here today.

Yeah, that's not good range at all, especially when they market 12 km.
