RE: 📍Midday Wanders with a DJI Mini 3 Pro: Lembeek from Above

Upgrade itch: HIGH

I know this feeling big time. I'm still running a Mini 2 and that thing still performs decently, but in any wind that battery life is just awful. Really limits the exploration with how it feels like it's ready to fall out of the sky at any moment. Always got to keep it close because of that.

I'd love to upgrade into the Air series. The full Mavic lineup seems a bit too expensive and overkill for me.

Sort:  

Well, I have the Air 2s, and am VERY pleased by it! The quality is incredible, and so is the stability and the flight comfort. Battery life is on par with the Mini 3 Pro. I also had a Mavic Pro (the first one). Now that is an incredible workhorse! Stable as a rock! And solid... Well, also as a rock! :-D Flew it into a 10 meter high tree once (sideways, it doesn't have sensors there), and it fell down on the ground from there, nothing broken at all :-D But the camera quality was lagging behind the newer models, so don't use it no more.
So, I would LOVE to upgrade the Air 2s to the 3s, but the difference is too small, or to the Mavic Pro, but the price is too high (at this moment), so sticking with the Air2s for now.
As for the Mini 3 Pro, I love it! But the camera could use an upgrade, and I would love sideway sensors on it as well. But the Mini 4 Pro just doesn't justify the price for me now (coming from the Mini 3 Pro), so my guess is that the Mini 5 Pro will be worth the money of the upgrade, coming from the 3 :-D
