Is any body able to read the Chinese in the screen shots? Found on the Chinese DJI site. I'm not sure what this post is saying but by inference it's either there is unlikely to be further development of the M3 or there is more info about a future version. The forum members didn't seem to happy about it...

Hopefully they are hard at work with the mini 3 for now.

they can do both at the same time 100% and they are two totally separate teams.  based on the timing, there's no way the m3 team has anything relevant to do with the m3p team.  better not.

It refers back to this linkhttps://bbs.dji.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=290312

It is still being developed out. The million dollar question is when to expect the next firmware update...

Dear friends who care about Fly, sorry to keep you waiting, let's report on the progress! In the past four months, we have optimized for some of the problems that everyone has focused on, and the first batch of optimization functions have been launched in the App update and firmware update in December and January this year; the second batch of optimization functions are also under development and verification, and we are expected to meet with you in Q2 this year. The specific functions are as follows:


1. In the app updates and firmware updates in December last year and January this year, the features and optimizations that have been launched are -

Mavic 3 features: focus following, time-lapse photography, master lens, panorama, one-click movie, 4G image transmission, high-speed mobile phone quick transmission, continuous shooting, D-Log color reproduction, individual RAW format photo shooting, intelligent return route selection, EXP hand texture parameter adjustment, U disk mode, etc -

Screen remote control function: support SD card to store files, support HDMI output pure picture transmission -

In view of the problem that the camera parameters are not easy to adjust, we have designed a new parameter adjustment panel to make the adjustment of exposure parameters and the setting of commonly used photo and video parameters more convenient -

In view of the problem that the interface information is not clear and inaccurate, we have increased the size and spacing of buttons and icons, optimized the font and stroke of the text, so that everyone can see more clearly in the outdoor environment


2. The following features are under non-stop development and beta, and will be available in Q2 2022 -

Air 2S supports taking photos in RAW format alone -

Mavic 3 telephoto function optimization: supports fast switching between wide-angle and telephoto lenses, telephoto lenses support manual exposure and RAW format photo shooting - The remote control with screen supports more customization functions such as adjusting exposure parameters using the dial wheel -

Mavic 3 More advanced hand-feeling parameter adjustments (e.g. maximum speed) - Attitude ball supports remote control center display (Note: Attitude ball was originally planned to be online in Q1, but postponed to Q2 due to internal plan adjustments)


3. In addition, the main interface displays more information (including battery voltage, obstacle avoidance status, etc.), waypoint planning functions, full-screen mode interface, focus and metering optimization, file naming optimization, album download and storage optimization have also been included in the subsequent plan We will also synchronize with you in time for the follow-up progress, and thank you again for your attention and feedback on Fly!

Perhaps thats where they are going wrong,  the Mini team has nailed the GPS again in this drone.

Yea....DJI is going to cease all development on the flagship Mavic 3 6 months after launch, because that makes total sense. Come on guys, how do you even entertain such stuff?

The Google auto-translate is terrible. So much is lost/distorted during the translation.
The "further development of Mavic 3" is still on going for sure, that is not what that post is about.

The post is all about a video posted on Blibli.com, complaining about Mavic 3 being an "incomplete product", which received a rare comment from a member of the Mavic 3 engineering team. Basically he acknowledged the issues mentioned in the video, and those issues have been noted by DJI's senior management. They are working hard to try to address the issues.

Have you any word when we might see something happen for M3 users ?

Unfortunately, the answer is no.

There are rumors in DJI China forum, claiming the target date for the next Mavic 3 firmware to be the end of May or early June. Again, these are just rumors.

Its basically in line with what i thought. Expect an Firmware update by 6/30 at the very latest. Hopefully sooner as I am looking forward towards both enhance telephoto lens features and a faster GPS lock. Waypoints etc are good but they could wait until Q3.

The whole issue seems to arise that they wanted to please every body and as result, no one is pleased.

DA, how many satellites required for Mini 3 to establish home point?
...as it uses the same 3 constellations as the Mavic 3.
Thanks, S.

As I explained already .. there is no single magic number of sats that will guarantee that you have a homepoint.

Yes, I do ... and that's why I told you that there is no single number of stats that will guarantee a homepoint with any DJI drone.
They all work exactly the same way.

Details for the Mavic are well known by now.
I'd suggest you find out the time for the Mini 3 from someone who owns one.
Presumably it's much faster or we'd have heard by now.

looking like SV’s for TTTF is; mini 3: 10 vs Mavic 3: 12.
That should help reduce the cold start time.

If you are thinking that 10 sats or 12 sats equals a homepoint, you are incorrect.
I've explained to you in detail how it works and that there is no single number of sats that will ensure a homepoint.
Go back and read what I wrote again.

it‘s BranYang’s comment, looks like he is one of the dev team.
the  video listed several problems of mavic3. then BranYang said:
"as a dev team member, I'm sad to see that our product upsets users. but there is a good news(hope it is), the company leaders and dev team are already aware of this situation and they are starting dealing with those problems."

hope I am a little better than google translation

I hope that's an old comment.
6 Months after release, you'd want them to be more than starting to deal with th eissues.

Good point.  I had not considered that it may have been sitting there for some time.  Either way, it is now more than time for the SDK.  : )

With fast-paced world of techno, they have already moved on to Mavic-4.
M3 is so yesteryear (2021).
