Assuming you have the Mini 3 pro and have used it a few times are you glad you bought it

Yes I love mine

Yes I love mine

That will be an interesting survey to keep an eye on from my perch on the fence  

Very happy with mine so far.  Especially for the initial firmware release.  

Wasnt the question i proposed, but i see what you did there...

..the suggested question was, "If you knew then what you know now, would you still buy it?"

Slightly different, but hey ho.

I am happy I purchased one - when arrive will vote (I really hate taking a big backpack on all my walks ) hope to solve this with Mini 3 - but availability is bad especially fly more kit

I am happy to got it yesterday after order it last saturday (very quick) quick fly with it i have the rc rm330 now waiting for the fly more combo kit

so far i am glad. Only downsides i found are the fly more combo separate purchase, the lack of charger, the horrible slot for micro sd card( the person that designed that should have their fingernails removed and asked to try his invention) and last but not least the total lack of propellers protection. The bottom part of the drone is designed in a way it protects a bit the propellers and they get folded inside between the two protrusions on the bottom that are kind of legs. But overall propellers are moving freely when stored and this increases chances of warping, breaking. there is no holder of any kind and with the soft bag in the fly more i doubt propellers will survive long. So far for mini and mini 2 i haven't changed a single propeller. I am afraid that would be impossible with mini 3.

Incredible...... It sort of goes without saying that people know what they know now as the Poll has a date, and they are voting at a particular date.  

If you don't mind me saying you sound like a person who is rather particular and never satisfied.

Each to their own

I am glad I purchased it. I just wished the Flymore battery kits are out as its painful having a fly and going home after a battery. I could wait on location but its far to long to charge.

I like the question and I also see what you did you removed all the "Sitting on the fence people" :-)


Also lets me see how many people on the forum have purchased and voted

Yes indeed. Siting on the fence is fine but too many comments from fence sitters does tend to concern me a little.

It is interesting that only 12 people have voted I would have thought there were far more in the Wild than that and that such people would frequent this forum

bet you wish you didn't add the "Fence Sitting Option" in your previous poll :-)

I will order the Mini3 so I can start to comment on your posts :-) though I do hope for amazing firmware in the future from DJI

I voted Yes, even if there are issues with signal range and a Bug related to Unlocked zones and POI....But considering all at once, is a good choice.

Well having just flown it for the first time outside in any meaningful way I am delighted with it. My ‘whoa where’s it gone’ sphincter clench happens way before I get any signal issues so I shall happily stop concerning myself with its lack of transatlantic capability

Yup that is how I feel and I have many other DJI Drones to fall back on. I just hate the thought of loosing any of them even the very old ones..... I just went out to try a bit more of a range test but it rained heavy so was prevented from doing so..... Even after say 300 m I consider that a long way and worry. Because if people are honest I don't believe many people can see any medium sixed drone beyond about 300 m And you certainly cant hear this one.

So to all the fence sitters out there................... Is this enough to move you to spending your cash........ Remember the only way to waste money is not to spend it (Except on ND filters of course)

re propeller protection, I believe there is/are items already on Amazon for that purpose. Have a search, cost, £10,98 I believe.

very happy with mine

At least that is moving

Hello there Bigplumbs. Good day and thank you for creating this post I hope that our fellow DJI co pilots who have the new DJI Mini 3 Pro can share there valued insights with regards to this matter. Thank you.

It would be nice if you lot shared a valued insight for once

As i have said before, they are, for the most part, media relations, i would be surprised if they even have a drone themselves, some may have.

They are here as a go-between for the Techs, help with information that's in the devices manuals and forum moderation etc.

Its not their job to give insight, i don't think they would even be allowed to do so. They would have to remain impartial, having said that, most certainly not allowed to bad mouth a product, that's for sure. So, even if they did give any insight, it wouldnt be impartial.

Love mine just because the lower noise level and pitch makes it less noticeable when you're out flying (A nice trick would be to put an old RC car next to you and most people will think you're fiddling with an RC car/truck and won't even notice the drone above

I’m loving the portability! Also the RC controller is a game changer for me. It feels like a more streamlined experience.

Yes very happy with my lickle fwoggy.

fwoggy....that's been the problem ! (cured now I hope)

Don’t know, haven’t seen it yet.  Bought it for trip to Europe, it arrived the day after we left.  So I brought the Mavic 3 instead.  Been VERY happy with that.

Overwhelmingly, YES!

So several more people have voted and so far we have 42 out of 46 that are happy with their mini 3 pro. I think that is quite compelling and actually the most important thing.

If this does not persuade the fence sitters then you have got to wonder if they were ever serious in the first place…… Up to them of course

I'll wait a couple more months. Too much silly fanboi noise. There is definitely a flaw in the transmission system in some of them. Plus a lot of camera lens condensation issues.

Voted yes. This is an awesome product.

This is my first drone so I can't really compare to anything else, but it is a real joy to fly, very beginner friendly. Hand taking off and landing is simplicity with this thing.

The only trouble is, I am still a bit self conscious getting the drone out to fly when other people are around, so I am not flying as much as I would like to.
