I just got my Mini 3 Pro (i swapped my Mini 3 for it) I have a flag that I wanted to test the Quick Shot circle to fly  the drone around the flag.  The flag is about 8 ft high and I had my drone hovering about 10  feet away.  My house was 20 ft away and no other obstacles within that 10 feet radius.  When I started the quick shot circle the drone seemed to fly out more than 10 feet away and crashed violently into the wall of my house. D@MN!.  The right front sensor was bent and propellers were scuffed, but no other apparent damage.  I relaunched the drone  and hovered and seems to be "OK".
I thought that in Quick shot circle mode the radius is established prior to activating and that if there was an obstacle it would or go around.  In this case I had obstacle avoidance set to go around, but I don't think it even sensed the wall because it didn't even slow down.


Question:   Does obstacle avoidance work in Quick Shots?  Apparently it didn't work in Circle.  Secondly, what is the minimum radius from the object will Quickshots circle work?  Is there a warning, because I didn't see/notice it on the screen.

Thirdly, I i did purchase the DJI Care Refresh.  What are my options, because there appears to be superficial damage on the drown (dent) on the plastic surrounding one of the front sensors.  It includes a replacement.  Is it free or is it $65 depending on if you can wait until DJI receives the drone to be replaced?

Thank you (newbie here) I appreciate your recommendations.

pg 25 from the manual states the following:

Use QuickShots at locations that are clear of buildings and other obstacles. Make sure there are no people, animals, or other obstacles in the flight path. The aircraft will brake and hover if an obstacle is detected in front or behind. Note that obstacles cannot be detected on either side of the aircraft.
Pay attention to objects around the aircraft and use the remote controller to avoid collisions with the aircraft.

Mini 3 pro has no sideways sensors. For the front and rear sensors, the icon (item #5) is white when the vision system is ON & working normally and turns red when the vision system is OFF and unavailable.

Hi there. We're deeply sorry for the incident that happened to your unit. You may consider creating an online repair case using this link https://repair.dji.com/repair/index . Our team will conduct proper diagnostics on your unit to further identify the main cause of the crash. Furthermore, yes, the Quickshot of the DJI Mini 3 Pro does support Obstacle Avoidance. However, please note that DJI Mini 3 Pro does not come with left and right sensing functions and we highly recommend that when using the Quickshot-Circle, make sure to avoid obstacles around the movement track to avoid a crash due to the lack of a sensing system. Thank you for your understanding and support.

I know this is an old thread relating to DJI mini 3 pro. Please can you confirm that ALL SENSORS (front back and sides ) are supported and work when using
‘Quick Shots ‘ on the DJI mini 4 Pro .
Thanks Gareth

All sensors work. Only for this drone there is another forum section.
