@alainfloutier6466 2 жыл бұрын
Hello I had both the AIR2S and the Mini3 Pro. I sold the AIR2S to buy the mini 3 PRO. I am sorry, but for a simple user of drone I am, I capture moments in every hiking or biking I am doing, the Mini3 Pro is better for me. Out of the 12 reasons you mention, I do not agree with most of them: 2) I could never use 5.4 K videos on my AIR2S because there is no way to display or edit them on any Apple device 3) I tested successfully the Dlog mode on the Mini3 Pro with great results 4) I am flying in the mountains with VERY strong wind, and the camera remains very stable thanks to the gimble 5) I do not care of NFZ because I have never been blocked 6) I never had to change the props, and anyway, the small screwdriver provided makes things REALLY easy 7) Mini3 Pro is very well tested and have regular updates 8) I never bought the RC PRO because of it HUGE price, compared to the DJI RC provided with the Mini3 Pro bundle 9) Performances of the Mini3 Pro are well above expectations for usual videos of photos 10) Cooling of the Mini3 Pro is good WHEN FLYING. I flew in VERY hot summer days without issues 12) I do not care about Instasphere 3D. Mini3 PRO does great panoramas in 180 or 360 deg. 13) Hyperlapse of the Mini3 Pro just got improved in the latest release In the other hand, I prefer the Mini3 PRO because: 1) It is MUCH smaller than the AIR2S and I can take it with me EVERYWHERE, when I could not with my AIR2S 2) The DJI RC controller in fantastic because it is SOOO easy to turn on with the simple press of a button on the drone and on the controller, and the quality of the screen is way better than on my iPhone screen. And NO cables to connect. I never need a solar screen with it 3) The extended battery of the Mini3 PRO make at least 40 mn flights when it no more 25 mn with the AIR2S. This makes a big difference when you prepare your shots in the air. 4) I could shoot vertical videos or photos with the Mini3 PRO, not with the AIR2S (however, I do not really care this format) I would agree that the AIR2S camera is probably better for super Pros, but the difference is not justified for a casual user. The price/performance of the Mini3 PRO is good compared to the AIR2S, especially if you have to buy the RC PRO Controller with the AIR2S...!! Sure that DJI must have seen the sells of the AIR2S drop, but technology evolve and I do not regret my decision a bit.

They always say the best camera is the one you have with you when you need to take a photo. Likewise the best drone is the one that you can fly in the most places legally. The sub 250g weight is vital IMO, particularly in Europe, and then you add all of the features that take the Mini 3 Pro so close to these bigger drones, and you have such a capable package it's crazy. We are lucky to have the Mini 3 Pro available as an option.

True. It's the one thing making me think about getting an M3p. The Air 2s is such a solid proven bird but the M3p is quieter and won't require the RID. These are big pluses for a casual flyer. I'm thinking of adding an M3p to my Mini 2 and Air 2s mini fleet. No one drone is good at everything. I'm even thinking of selling my beloved Autel Evo 2 Pro.

Both drones aren't really in the same category. The need for a sub-250g drone is what really makes the Mini 3 relevant. I agree that the 1.7 aperture offers superior night time filming and I like the brighter image of the Mini 3. However, the Air 2S is definitely the superior drone overall, which is understandable since it occupies the mid-price slot for DJI. And in Europe (for legal reasons) the expanded life batteries are not available. So instead of comparing drones intended for different parts of the market and for different requirement, lets' just be grateful both models are available.

@@CaminoAir On the part of the subpar 250g part. If you just pay the $5 dollars every 3 years you won't care whatsoever about it being so small. I haven't really ran into any issues where yes the Air 2s weighs like 3x's what the Mini 3 does, and the flight time on the air 2s isn't as long, but on 3 batteries and getting almost 30 minutes out of each battery. That's a lot of flight time. I pull out the solar panel and my power station and after the 1st battery is done. Start charging and continue to fly. After an hour later and swapping batteries every 30 minutes I may not get a full balanced charge, but plenty of juice to keep on going for a good time longer. I'd think after 2 hours of flight time plus, I need a break!

After a little play time, most probably will rarely use it, or use it because they can. Both Air 2s and Mini 3 Pro in my opinion are both great drones. I guess whatever floats your boat. Yes, the Mini is quieter then the Air 2s, because it is also a lot lighter. If your worried about crazy ass neighbors or crazies in general of either beating you up, or causing some sort of confrontation. Mini 3 might be the better option at least until every pilot has to use "Remote ID."

Hi, I think you are right on many points. I think it has to do with DJI's policy. In Europe we have the rule that users of drones under 250 grams do not have to obtain any certificates to be allowed to fly and the drones only have a registration obligation. Drones under 250 grams also do not have to meet many European requirements. In my opinion, DJI is working on developing the best possible drone under 250 grams. Here they will achieve if they succeed, that a large part of the European amateurs and hobbyists will buy these drones.

@xavier_arthur Жыл бұрын
The reason I have two videos is because my opinion doesn't matter. Everyone is their own individual that has different needs and wants, DJI understands that and that's why they don't make one drone that's better than the other, they made drones that suit people's needs and wants at various price points, and of course everything in life has a trade off and so does technology, for example most drones that come feature packed also come heavier and bigger in size, so it's better in features but not in compact and portability. Unfortunately we just can't have both in life because everything in life has a trade-off. With all that being said, the real question is which drone is better for you? You have all the information between both videos to help you make the best decision for you. For me, I went with the Mini 3 Pro and sold my Air 2s primarily because of the short battery life, and also because I have a mavic 3, if I did not have the mavic 3, I would have kept the Air 2s, so it all depends on what other drones you have too. See where I'm going, everyone is different, I hope this helps you to understand what's better for you.

I have pulled the Micro SD card before using my cooling base and it was pretty much too hot to touch. The fan was trying, but flying in temps over 100 degrees for 3 batteries just pulls too much heat on the boards and drone.

Mini 2 and Air2 S are bangs for the buck. Going forward, starting with the Mavic 3, DJI is no longer a bang for the buck.

"#7 Tried, Tested & Proven" is the PRIMARY reason why I purchase drones that are a generation behind / last year's model. The majority of Bugs and other issues have been resolved coupled with being able to draw other people's experiences. It's nice knowing accessories and other support services that I use or may want is usually readily available. Works for me and that's the key.

I agree with most of what you’re saying. The one problem I heard is about the camera. You say to put it up to 5.4K or whatever it was for the best picture. The only problem with that is you have to have a device that has that resolution. If your looking at pictures on a 4K screen you will only see things in 4K. If your device is less that’s what you get.

I was a mini 2 user and had a hard time deciding between the air 2s and mini 3 as an upgrade. I ultimately went for the mini 3 for because of price, vertical shooting mode, and portability. The mini 3 sports a lot of the features that you would of had to buy the 2s for like hyperlapse, active track, and obstacle avoidance. I think for the majority of drone users the mini 3 bridges the gap and imo will be one of their most popular if not most popular products. And the RC remote, I mean how can you not love this drone!

This video isn’t taking into consideration of weight restrictions in many countries. The heavier drones are bound to be better, but in the uk they can’t fly over people, are restricted in cities etc. I brought the Mini 3 pro for this very reason. Obviously drones under 1kg have fewer restrictions, but my mini pro 3 has none other than obviously LOS and festivals etc.

If you buy the package with the 3 backup batteries and spend I believe $50 bucks you can get a charger that can charge all 3 batteries at once. I bought my charger on Amazon. I love my Air 2s. I could fly between batteries and charge while flying. I could probably get well over 2 to 3 hours flying or more just buy swapping batteries and charging the next one. You don't have to wait for it to full balance before you use the next battery. Besides, flying for such a long time. You'd need a break at some point. It is all preference. I love my Air 2s and I think the Mini 3 Pro is a great little drone too. After all, they are both DJI and scream quality.

Just grabbed an Air 2S, because... it's the only DJI Consumer/ Prosumer drone I've never had. Pretty sweet. Shame they aren't doing much within it but it doesn't NEED much. Still like the Lite+ imaging more but there's a lot to like here. Came back specifically to get the brand of filters - couldn't remember "Kolari" - great comparison, even if some points didn't age well (RC Pro became compatible, the Shutter Priority/ISO Priority is on Mini 3 Pro now. It flys MUCH better than the little guy!

I felt the same way you did regarding no fan in the Mini 3 Pro. What made me change my mind was watching another video of a man flying his Mini 3 over hot lava. It had melted on the bottom and made it back in one piece. Sadly, he sent it off on its final journey filming it till it went down into the active small volcano. I chose the Mavic Air 2s and I agree with you on many of the differences. I haven't really cared about the advantage of the Mini 3 Pro being quieter nor the camera being able to rotate 90 degrees giving you the phone experience nor the camera able to angle up higher. That being said, what you share about the Air 2s I completely agree! I freaking love this drone!
@Live2ride2live54321 Жыл бұрын
This makes no sense to me. You do realize an internal fan on the mini three pro will not prevent lava in a volcano from melting it??!! it doesn’t matter what drone you have, if you get too close to hot lava, it will melt! end of story.

I'm fortunate enough to have both the Air 2s and Mini 3 pro (both purchased within the last 12 months). So I have a question... If the Air 2s was that good, why doesn't it weigh les than 250 grms?!. Answer, it cant, yet! So that's why the Mini 3 doesn't have a 1" sensor, or 'quick swop' rotor blades etc etc. But the Mini 3 opens up a whole new world of opportunities the laws disallow with a drone in a higher weight category. I'm also entitled to add, having compared the overall results of the 2 aircraft, Owning a Mini 3 pro comes with very few compromises!.

Ok so one thing I KNOW for a fact is that the mini 3 can do auto iso in pro mode. How do I know this? Because it was on auto when I first went into pro mode. I was amazed and happy. But, and it’s a big BUT, I switched it to a set iso and I haven’t been able to find a way to turn back on auto 😔 😭 … maybe it was a fluke but I’m hoping that it’ll be a feature that comes back or one that I can get to happen again somehow. Thanks for the video!

You're comparing apples and oranges in many cases and in the time it took you to produce this video, they released updates to greatly enhance hyperlapse and to make the rc pro compatible with the 3 pro. I assure you that anything important will be rolled into the pro 3 in no time. Throw in the fact that they are making it harder and harder to fly > 250g drones and the 3 pro will only rise up more and more as time moves forward.
