Fly longer with improved social media support when filming with the Mini 3 from DJI. Compared to the previous generation, the Mini 3 sports improved wind resistance and battery life, now offering up to 38 minutes of flight time. It also adds true vertical shooting, which is a feature that lets you rotate the gimbal 90° to film vertical shots that can be immediately shared on social media platforms. Like the Mini 2, the Mini 3 captures stunning videos in 4K HDR, uses OcuSync 2.0 for a transmission range of up to 6.2 miles, and includes a host of automated functions to make piloting easier. Please note that this is the "drone-only" version of the Mini 3 and does not include a remote controller.
QuickShots
Using a handful of different pre-programmed drone flight patterns, you can use the DJI Fly app to quickly take professional-level videos. You can choose from Dronie, Helix, Rocket, Circle, or Boomerang modes. Once captured, the DJI Fly app lets you add filters and soundtracks and share your work directly to social media platforms. Using QuickTransfer, you can quickly send your QuickShots to your mobile device for backup and online sharing.
Panorama
With aerial photography, the canvas is vast, which is why DJI gives you multiple options for capturing it all with panorama modes. You can choose from Wide-Angle, 180°, or Sphere panoramas. The Mini 3 automatically does the rest.
Built-In Photo Optimization
The DJI Fly app can intelligently optimize your images immediately after downloading a photo from the Mini 3, providing you with shots that exhibit more vivid colors and contrast.
QuickTransfer
Downloading your images can be as easy as walking near your drone. Once your smartphone is close enough to the Mini 3, the DJI Fly app can automatically connect to the drone and synchronize selected photos and videos at speeds up to 20 MB/s.
Automated Functions
Piloting is made less stressful with the Mini 3 thanks to a series of integrated automated functions, such as automatic takeoff, precise hovering, and multiple return-to-home modes. Precise hovering uses both the downward vision and infrared sensing system of the drone to perform a stable and accurate hover. Return-to-home modes include Smart RTH, Low Battery RTH, and Failsafe RTH, which use GPS to automatically fly the Mini 3 back to its takeoff point when needed.
