After three days of flying I noticed serious defects.
First of all: the image quality and the active track are sensational.
RTH
It takes a minute or two for a voice to say "Home is updated".
However, the update is not displayed on the screen. If you don't hear the voice, you're not sure if the drone will come back.
Night flight
The position lights are positioned incorrectly. If the drone is 10m in the air, it can no longer be seen. Automatic landing also becomes a risk.
So the Mini 3 is not suitable for night use.
Hand launch
With the Spark, a double click on the power button was enough. After 3 seconds the drone flew away. With the Fly app, the autostart is too complicated and becomes a risk. The hand landing is also not optimal.
Gimbal protection
The foam was gone after the first night flight. This is not a solution.
Remote control
Much too big and heavy. For trekking, the advantage of the mini is gone.
POI
The control sticks were blocked for me. This was not the case with the Mavic and it would be a shame with the Mini.
FlyApp
After five years with the Go4, I had a lot of trouble with the Flyapp and a lot is still unclear to me.
