DJIMini 3 (DJI RC) – Lightweight 3x Mechanical Gimbal Mini Camera Drone with 4K HDR Video, 38-min Flight Time, up to 32800ft (10km) Video Transmission, Vertical Shooting, GPS Auto Return Integrated

From the moment I unboxed the DJI Mini 3, I was impressed. The packaging is clean and premium, with everything neatly organized and secure. You can tell DJI puts real care into their products.The drone itself is incredibly lightweight and compact, yet it feels sturdy and high quality. Setup was quick and easy even as someone fairly new to drones, I had it in the air within minutes. The controls are smooth and intuitive, and the app makes flying even easier.The camera quality is outstanding. Crisp 4K video, smooth footage, and vibrant colors, even in lower light. The gimbal does a great job stabilizing shots, and the vertical shooting mode is perfect for social media.It’s packed with smart features like intelligent flight modes, auto takeoff/landing, and return-to-home. Battery life is great too I get plenty of flying time without constantly recharging.Yes, it’s a bit pricey but honestly, it’s worth every penny. Whether you’re a beginner or looking for a compact, high-performance drone, the DJI Mini 3 is an incredible choice. Highly recommended!

Super impressed with this small but wonderful drone. If you are technically minded then it's ok to understand reasonably quickly. I am still on a learning curve when it comes to flying it but really enjoying the fact it takes time to develop flying skills and videoing skills. I've heard of other people crashing it on day 1 , but if you follow the rules and it does tell you when it's not happy taking off you will be fine. The fly more kit is worth the money, as is the all in one controller. Remember to do the owner operator test and label your drone.

Before buying this drone I purchased a cheap one to see if drone flying and photography was something was just a fad or something I would like to continue on a long term basis. It turned out to be the latter. So, what drone to buy? There are a lot of drones out there claiming to have 4K or even 8K cameras with the drone itself having lots of features. But I can promise you - even if you are a beginner like me, if you are serious about making this a long term hobby then you need to spend a bit. You really do get what you pay for. I looked at and read reviews of many drones but in the end I focused on Holy Stone and DJI. Holy Stone seemed decent and cheaper but DJI, although more expensive seemed to have the edge in the key areas of quality of the camera and flyability of the drone. In the end I went for this DJI Mini 3 with the Fly More package which included the remote control with built in screen, 2 extra batteries and a shoulder bag to put it all in. This package was at the very top end of what I wanted to pay and maybe a bit more than what I wanted to pay. At this point, I should say I was also looking at the Mini 3 Pro which has quite a few upgraded features, the main ones being a better camera, an obstacle avoidance system and Active Tracking where the drone can fix on and follow a moving object. I would have liked the obstacle avoidance but the Mini Pro 3 with the Fly More package was about £300 more than the Mini 3. Much more than I wanted to pay. So I bought the Mini 3 and also bought a 2 year care package for £85 which covers accidental damage. And I can tell you that the camera produces very good photos and even better videos in 4K. And the drone instils confidence. It is very responsive and very stable - a joy to fly. It handles windy conditions very well. Build quality of all components is also excellent.

Great Drone, quality item, camera quality is excellent, operation and response of the drone is first class, hand set with the built-in screen is excellent and simple to navigate, it may be last years model but great value for money with the fly more combo, only criticism this model has no obstacle avoidance, but still 5 stars

Great Drone, screened RC was the deal sealer for me, clear and bright.Lovely flier, great camera, video and stills, and return home feature is a boon.Highly recommended ( if you'll forgive the pun ).

What a fantastic bit of kit, Easy to set up and fly. I highly recommend this drone, 4K video crystal clear, Suited to the casual drone flyer.

Great piece of kit. But the three batteries only seem to charge half way for some reason.

The media could not be loaded. Just amazing. The fly more kit is great value for money with well over an hour flight time across 3 batteries. Video quality is amazing at 4k30 or 2.7k60. So easy to handle as drone practically flys itself, but everyone knows DJI drones are the best for this. Size and weight conforms to legal standards being under 249g, meaning no license is required (here in the UK). Fly more kit comes with battery charging station for easy charging of all 3 batteries and remote from one power source! I couldn’t recommend enough to someone who wants to get into drones! Very beginner friendly, also capable of semi professional looking footage with the ability to shoot in pro (manual) mode. Lens cap can also be swapped out for ND and UV filters also sold by DJI or other brands to achieve a much slower shutter speed for low flying motion blur. App is phenomenally easy to use with great AI features. Simple one click edits produced some really nice clips. I have attached a one click edits below so you can see what it is capable of!
