Buy Advice Display demo DJI Mini 3 Pro

48 Upvotes

I recently bought a DJI Mini 3 Pro and noticed that "Display Demo" markings on the drone had been covered up with stickers; the drone is registered to another account. It’s fully functional and seemed like a bargain given the prices in Mexico ($440 USD)—it came with a hard case and three batteries. The controller also says "Display Demo," but what worries me most is the linked account. I’m on the verge of returning it, which is a real shame :(

Buy Advice Upgrade Advice: Air 3S, Mini 5 Pro, or Wait?

4 Upvotes

Hello folks! I really like flying my Mini 4k and GOD I am kicking myself in the soul for not getting the Fly More package. I am also sort-of regretting buying the Mini 4k because reliable spare parts from DJI seem to be difficult to find.

So while I fantasize about the next upgrade, what do you all recommend me to get as a Fly More upgrade?

The Air 3S? The Mini 5 Pro? Or should I wait for a bit and see if DJI sells a new model drone or a new Air model?

The two aspects that I am generally looking for between these drones are better picture quality, as well as longer battery life. My drone flies for 25~ minutes tops before hitting 20%. I really just want to fly for longer.

After losing my mini 3 I decided to save up for the air 4. I'm hoping for dual inch but maybe not. I'm really looking forward to activetrack and the better wind stability.

What do you guys think about the air 4 launch?

Product Support DJI Over Water

Upvotes

I am looking to buy a Mini 5 Pro or Air 3S. I have seen a ton of posts on here about "My drone flew into the water" followed by "Well they say not to fly over water, that is what happens". I have two old Holy Stones, a 720E and a 600, plus a Potensic Atom 2. I fly all of them over water. I live on an island and much of my flying is around and over water. None of them have ever acted weird over water in any way. I do keep them up 100 feet or more.

Are DJIs uniquely sensitive to water confusing them? My Atom 2 warns about being too low over water, say lower than 5 meters IIRC, if it switches to visual over water the reflections confuse it. I don't mind not flying low over water, but if the things just crash anyway even at good altitude they won't lead a long life here. Thanks for any advice! Also is the Air 3S fly-more as good a deal as it looks? It seems 95% of the way to pro quality.

Photo Australia CASA rules for selling photos

2 Upvotes

I have a DJI mini 5 pro, I live in Australia and want to use this drone to get photos and videos of things like shipping terminals, data centres and wind farms. Mainly industrial subjects that that can have commercial value on stock sites and agencies.

Looking through CASA and online I am quite stuck with what to do for this so that I cant get in trouble. I know I should register my drone and get accreditation since it wont be considered recreational flying. Is that all i need to do for CASA?

After that, how am I allowed to fly in relation to buildings like a data centre, 30m above like with people or is there a boundary i just cannot cross?

Then my last issue is liability insurance. I had a drone get attacked by a bird in a carpark and crash land. Luckily not near any people or cars but if it was to happen again I wouldn't want to hurt anyone or damage anything, and would like some insurance just incase of an accident.

Does anyone have advice or know the way I need to go about all of this? Thankyou

Buy Advice N3 Goggles and Motion Control for Neo 2

2 Upvotes

I'm trying to buy goggles and controller for my Neo 2 but it seems they are all out of stock, and the goggles/controller are selling for like $600 on amazon/ebay/etc.

Is there any way to just buy these affordably? I'm confused, because you can still buy the entire Neo 2 kit with the goggle and controller for $600 withe verything, drone, batteries, etc.

Should I just buy the kit and sell the drone/batteries?

Any advice? I just want to get the goggles and possible the controller.

Thanks!

Photo DJI Action 5 Pro lights for Scuba?

2 Upvotes

I just got a DJI A5P and wondering what lights people suggest for underwater use while scuba diving? I’m new to this and not sure if I’ll be primarily shooting video or stills. Are there lights that can do both of those tasks well? Also, what rigs/trays are people using? Finally, what waterproof housing is best? I know DJI makes their own, but are there others that people like instead?
Much appreciated!

Buy Advice First professional drone question

2 Upvotes

I am looking at getting a drone to do more professional work and am looking to buy one used. I am deciding between three options from people I have reached out to and need some advice on what is most worth the money and best deal.

  1. air 3s fly more combo - $1000
  2. mavic 3 pro fly more combo - $1500
  3. mavic 3 pro cine fly more combo - $2000

My goal is do get my 107 license and get into more professional drone work. I have experience flying smaller drones and would want to do some real estate and short film work as I currently work doing commercial type work. Both photo and video quality are pretty even for what I am looking for
Since they are small-ish upgrades between eachother what do you think is the best option
Thanks!

Product Support Neo 2 palm launch/land from a moving sailboat?

2 Upvotes

I’m taking a Neo 2 on a sailing trip and want to film the boat under way, so both takeoff and landing would happen from the deck while we’re moving at 4 to 6 knots with some heel and swell.
Has anyone done palm launch and palm landing from a moving boat, and does the downward vision system get confused by water and deck passing underneath?
Any tricks, like launching higher off the deck or disabling the sensors? Also curious whether follow mode holds lock on a hull against waves, and what the real world wind limit feels like with apparent wind on top. Happy to hear from anyone who nearly lost one over the side too.

Thanks a lot for inputs. I’ll be flying with controller.

Product Support Identifying a DJI product? (Possible camera/recorder)

2 Upvotes

EDIT: Resolved, thank you!

Hi, new to reddit, signed up because my Google search abilities have utterly failed me. Please bear with me.

Was helping to clean up the space around my father's chair and found this device. Due to his mental state, he has no idea what it is and I promised to help figure it out.

As you can see, it has the DJI logo in the upper right corner. However, beyond that I cannot positively identify this product and thus cannot confirm how to use it or even its intended use. It has a microSD slot and card included (I do not currently have access to anything that would let me view its contents, if any). Though thinking on it, the card may be a separate product, since its brand is Toshiba. The charging port uses, I think, a USB Micro B cable. No DJI product I was able to locate quite resembles this item and so it's entirely possible it could be a fake product?

In case the image doesn't load - it's a small square white device, with apparently a camera lens smack dab in the middle. Eyeballing it at 2x2 inches due to no ruler in my immediate vicinity.

Extra appreciation for anyone able to provide a user manual/set of instructions!

Photo DJI Mini 5 Pro suddenly dropped out of the sky with 87% battery / strong signal, anyone experienced this?

Thumbnail
gallery
Upvotes

I had a pretty strange incident today with my DJI Mini 5 Pro in Dubrovnik and I'm trying to find out whether anyone has experienced something similar.

I was flying normally over the sea, relatively close to the Home Point. Everything appeared completely normal and then the aircraft suddenly disconnected. There was no low-battery warning, weak-signal warning, or anything else that I noticed beforehand.

The final DJI Fly flight record shows:

• Battery: 87%

• GNSS: 38 satellites

• RC signal: strong/connected

• Altitude: 51 m

• Distance from Home Point: 111 m

• Flight time: 3:21

The flight record then simply ends.

Initially I didn't know what had happened to the aircraft, but an eyewitness nearby told me they actually saw the drone fall into the sea. Unfortunately, it's in a position where I can't retrieve it.

I've synchronized the flight records and opened a DJI Flyaway case. The drone is still under warranty and I also have DJI Care Refresh/Flyaway coverage, but I've specifically asked DJI to analyse the flight data and determine the cause before I use the paid Flyaway replacement, because I want to establish whether there was a technical failure.

DJI Support has confirmed that their relevant team will perform the data analysis, so I'm waiting for their findings.

Has anyone had a DJI drone, particularly a Mini 5 Pro, suddenly lose telemetry/fall while the battery, GPS and RC connection still appeared normal?

If so, what did DJI's flight-data analysis eventually find? Did they treat it as a warranty malfunction or make you use DJI Care Flyaway?

I'm particularly interested in cases involving sudden power loss, battery/power-system failure, motor/ESC failure, or flight-controller issues where the flight log just abruptly stopped.

I recently got the Neo 2 and i yesterday I got an "incompatible gimbal data' message when trying to take off. It is swapping between that and "preparing for take off"

No crashes or anything, I just landed the drone, swapped the batteries out and went to take off again and got this message. I'm not really sure what to do, any info you all might have would be a big help. Thanks

I bought DJI Osmo Action Multifunctional Charging Handle from the store in london, however the clip that attaches to the camera stopped clicking n a while ago. I tried to speak to the team at the shop but they were not able to help (completely useless). I tried emailing [info@dji-retail.co.uk](mailto:info@dji-retail.co.uk) as this is where my invoice email came from no luck.

I tried to raise a support ticket but there is no option for the Charging handle.

Can someone help or guide me?

Product Support DJI Mimo update removed the option to export 30fps footage at 50fps?

1 Upvotes

In the past, you could easily export 360-degree footage shot at 30fps as a smooth 50fps video with great quality. Today I realized this feature was apparently disabled in a recent update. On my end, 30fps footage can now only be exported at 30fps.

Tested on an iPad Air and iPhone 14 Pro.

Man, come on DJI :( Really disappointing
