DJI Mavic 3 Classic: High Wind Test - 70KPH Winds!!!

Күн бұрын

Here's an epic wind test of the DJI Mavic 3 Class in nearly 70KPH winds, testing not just the aircraft handling, but also the stability and success of the video feed.
I take you through the areas like take-off of the Mavic 3 Classic, flying around, the different modes, camera movements, the official wind speed specs, wind considerations when flying in high-wind situations (tips and tricks), as well as plenty more.

Extremely impressive footage, I personally would NEVER EVER fly in winds that high, but DJI is doing a phenomenal job. I am still astounded. Great video again!

Cancelled flying today in a much lower wind. The wind was okey but the gusts were really strong. and I still have my machine in flying order...

That's some seriously impressive bit of kit! My Mavic 3 Classic is due to turn up today, and its gusting 36 MPH winds. Before watching this, I thought there was no way I was going to be able to do a test flight, but after seeing this, the M3 is more than capable! I did not think that the batter would last that long in those winds! Kudos to the engineers at DJI for producing such an excellent bit of kit!

@drewdyess9241 Жыл бұрын

Look how stable the shots are! I don't think other drones can survive this much level of wind or better yet keep a stable shot like the Mavic 3! That's quite a feat for this drone!

@ChrisMeuzelaar1 Жыл бұрын

The banding happens as the drone pitches down to fly into strong wind while at the same time the sun shines on the sensor, so the blades almost vertical create a shutter effect. Always love your extreme test as I film whales off shore

Also, another Mavic 3 into a tree that was recoverable but badly damaged.

Great video. The Mavic 3 has a 21% better wind resistance (28 mph) compared to the Air 2S (23 mph). But subjectively do you feel that the Mavic 3 is more than 21% better than the Air 2S? Would you say it is definitely noticeably better than the Air 2S if you were to fly both drones ar the same conditions? The reason I ask is sometimes I fly in very windy conditions and if the Mavic 3 is a good amount better in high wind vs the Air 2S, I’ll buy the Mavic 3. Cheers! Subscribed!

@Dcrainmaker Жыл бұрын

Honestly you won't notice the difference much. Both are very very good - I could mix and match these videos and nobody would be able to tell the difference in really any of them (the single exception being Avata, due to the slight angle offset on side winds).

They most certainly flew prototypes in wind tunnels to refine its aerodynamic, without compromising too much on weight, ease of production and internal volume; hell Southern China dips into true tropical territory, so tropical hurricanes are definitely within consideration.

wat een gaaf filmpje zeg, ik heb de zelfde drone maar ik denk niet dat ik dit zou durven, je hebt me eerder verteld dat dit de havenmonding van ijmuiden is, die ken ik inmiddels wel omdat we met de havendagen daar al een paar keer in gevaren zijn (ik werk als vrijwilliger in de machinekamer van de Elbe) aangezien ikzelf wellicht te voorzichtig ben en geen idee heb van hoe je zulke mooie video's edit, zou ik je willen vragen of je een keer een video maken kan over de rth functie met de controller als homepoint, de functie die op een boot zou moeten werken..... dat hoeft natuurlijk niet op een boot.....

@techdata_channel Жыл бұрын

Hello! Could you answer, does DJI solved those issues in M3 Classic? 1) Longtime satellites search, upto 2 min each flight, and GLONASS not used again 2) Raw (DNG) photos have black corners as used lens dont cover full sensor area 3) Flickering while hyperlapse, even in full manual settings (WB, shutter etc.)

@Dcrainmaker Жыл бұрын

All my satellite acquisition times were under 30 seconds. Looking at the .DNG files, I don't have any black corners in my photos. As for Hyperlapse, it's been too windy lately to do one (they'd turn our horrible due to the bounce). Cheers!

@Airbag888 Жыл бұрын

Amazing wind speed resistance.. I'm very worried though about the salt deposits corroding the drone parts - motors, pcb, etc they go in really deep when it's that misty. Does DJI actually protect their drones against that? A bit surprised also at the stuttery footage when in live view considering how close you were

@Dcrainmaker Жыл бұрын

The drones do actually have a bit of water resistance, which isn't the same as corrosion resistance of course, but I find that for the most part, I haven't had any issues with the units I've bought years ago and did tests then (at that same spot). I find just giving it a quick wipe-down afterwards helps quite a bit. Certainly I can't get into the ESC's easily, but it hasn't seemed to be an issue.

It’s not banding, what you have seen there where props - I suppose due to very strong wing and sports mode drone had to put itself in such angle where props got into camera.
