OK, my first test after the MIMO activation isn't promising at all...
It lasted only 13 minutes in 4k@60 before overheating and stop recording, but the conditions were not the same as the first test ones.
Hello,
So, after having run several tests, I can confirm a few things already:
- If you activate your device in EU (I believe the MIMO app is using your GPS location to figure your country out), your OP3 becomes instantly garbage.
And *yes*, the MIMO app updated the firmware to the latest one.
I don't know if you do a factory reset whether you have to activate your unit again. I might even try this.
I think a workaround could be using a "fake gps" app, to trick the MIMO app into thinking your a US resident... I didn't test this for now.
- At my happy and surprised disbelief, the "crackconfig" file with a single line "heat test" at the root of the SD card WORKS.
I could record almost 3 hours straight while charging to the wall plug in 4k@60 (without the battery handle, screen off after 30 seconds of idling)
The camera was *really hot* though but it didn't fail.
This is obviously a hidden "feature" that must have been unofficially disclosed by a DJI engineer.
European customer should be glad to have this solution at their disposal, even though you have to put your file at the root of each SD Card (my tests are ongoing to confirm this).
I urge the DJI officials to include this workaround in an official parameter in the settings like "bypass regional overheating threshold (at your own risk)" or something, because european people who don't know this "trick" will eventually be really disapointed by this product.
- The slowmotion 4k@120 could last 18 minutes (real recording time, 74 minutes of displayed recording time), as "advertised" before stopping for "overheating".
- I'm gonna remove the "crackconfig" file of my SD card and perform all my tests again to confirm.
- I'm gonna do several other tests as well (using the battery plug, with and without wall plug) to confirm that this file is mandatory for all european customers.
Note: I'll update this message with some pictures asap.
