    Love your list with the exception of the floats. I have had floats on 6 different drones including my mini 3 pro. I use them alot. I use them in winter quite a bit to land on snow. Makes a nice shot of landing beside a trail and walk, snowshoe going past. I love my floats. Thanks for all your videos.

    I've had my mini 3 for about 2 weeks now, and I'm really looking forward to my fly more combo arriving in a few days. The charger and extra batteries will be great addition. And one of my 6 different Freewell filters goes on every time before I go up now thanks to one of your previous videos, and I wanted to say thanks. The quality of my pics and videos has improved. Now I just have to learn how to put all this stuff to work. 🤣

  • @darbuthnot99

    Fly more kit is an absolute. I fold the lid of the bag back and then put the whole thing in my PacSafe backpack for instant organization and access to the M3P and batteries. Great video!

  • @MyViewsOfTheWorld
    @MyViewsOfTheWorld Před rokem

    Hi Darren, I agree with your list and I do admit I did buy landing legs for my Mavic Mini. I bought one that looks like a pair os snow skies. The reason for them was landing on sand. I used it a bit in the begining but as you said, after you are confident landing and taking off from your palm, they become meaningless. They are in a drawer somewhere with my landing pad, which I also only used a couple of times. I now take off and land on my hand and it is just much more practical. I still have a Mini 2, with the fly more combo, ND filters and a great backpack for it al along with my cameras. I also got the same SD cards as you and then one more thing I have for long trips is a really good power bank. I have a 30,000A power bank that charges the batteries, controller and phone several times and it has saved me on several occasions where power was a problem. I did not have a car or outlet to charge and the powerbank was essential.

  • @SD1922
    @SD1922 Před rokem +9

    I used to agree with you regarding the coloured sticks, until I dropped one of the originals (they are so TINY!) in fairly short rough grass. Despite a thorough search it is still there somewhere! I now use the blingy red sticks!

    • @JamieCrookes
      @JamieCrookes Před rokem +2

      Just buy a < 5 quid 3D printed stick lock so you don't need to remove them for stowage. It stops them from moving thus preventing damage or any need to be removing them.
      Pro tip though: If screwing or unscrewing anything don't do it over grass yeah? Either the smokable kind or the stuff on the ground. :D

  • @armandoferreira8790
    @armandoferreira8790 Před rokem +2

    I agree with you Darren, I bought my M3P with the FMK and bought the All day Freewell ND filters when they become available (I have Freewell ND filters for my Mini1). I also bought the Long Exposure ND filters from Freewell (they have been already shipped) and I was paying a 20 USD transportation fee. I added a Light Pollution (night filter) for 19.99 USD to my purchase and got transportation for free.
    I bought a pair of DJI RC sticks from DJI because I have already let one fall to the ground but luckly I found it.
    I bought a screen protector for my DJI RC.
    I am just missing the prop holder (I have for my Mini1) and one that you didn't mention, the DJI RC neck strap.

  • @BlairAir
    @BlairAir Před rokem +2

    I have Pgytech hard case for Air 2, Mavic 3 and a Matching one from another brand for Evo 2.. one complaint: The smaller format Mini 3 case has no strap attachment points. When you travel heavy, a shoulder strap is really useful 👌

    1. Totally agree, I am considering doubling down even and getting a 2nd fly more kit. If not, a fourth battery at least.
    2. Love the Freewell filters. I went with the All Day pack. I love and use the ND64 all the time during sunny days. I’ve also used the ND1000 for hyperlapses. I will likely double down here too for a polarizing set.
    3. Yeah Anker!
    4. As mentioned on another post, screen protection for the RC controller was an easy choice.
    5. I picked up a lanyard for the controller and (gasp!) cut off the shoulder strap on the fly more kit bag and clasped it in its place for a more comfortable shoulder carry, and when I want I unclasp it and use it as lanyard for the RC controller.
    Cheers from across the pond 🇨🇦!

  • @ryanaston1

    Really useful info. I just wonder, as the two filter packs you recommend are not cheap - if I were only going to buy one of the packs to get started - which of the two would you recommend?

  • @sashahess3141
    @sashahess3141 Před 9 měsíci +2

    Great video, I'm planning to get a drone but I'm stuck between the Air 3 and Mini 3 Pro. With the air 3 the 3x zoom camera would be super useful for me because I plan to take it fishing and scout out spots and stuff without spooking fish, but my only concern is size as I plan to wade out with it on sand flats and stuff but I don't want something to bulky as I need something I can carry while carrying a full backpack and fishing rods. I was just wandering if there where any shoulder bags you would recommend for the air 3, or should I get a mini 3 pro instead? My only concern with the mini 3 pro is the quality of the digital zoom.

  • @dearjonny
    @dearjonny Před rokem +6

    Landing legs are quite useful if you are in the country and need to land on roads that have large gravel, it beats having the props beat against the rocks. The case use is small and it flies a bit different with them, but they are sometimes quite useful. I keep some available.

    • @dave_ecclectic

      @@dave_ecclectic The retrieval of the SD card might be as valuable as the drone itself... especially for replacement value if you can't easily reproduce the video scenario.

    Great Video! Thanks! I got my M3 July 1st, my first drone. I’m very confused about ND filters vs. polarized, etc. The two links you put up for filters look to me to be the same. Should I start out with the set of 6 ND, (which set.) plus some polarized?

  • @BlairAir

    MATTE SCREEN PROTECTOR for RC -not as easy to find with all the "9H Tempered Glass" -those protect, but don't improve visibility.
    Boxwave makes an amazing one.
    * Kills 90% of glare.
    * Fingerprints won't obscure the display.

    There's also the Fly More PLUS kit which gives you two extra Big batteries. As opposed to the smaller ones in the normal Fly More Kit that only has 30 mins flight. Those bigger batteries really do make a difference

    • @captainvector

      They do add more flight time, but they also add more weight and take the drone over 250 grams.

    @albrunelle2022 Před rokem

    I think that your review is bang on but as recommended by a member above the RC screen protector is a must have accessory. I have never purchased a hard case for any of my drones as they have very limited room for accessories that should be part of your kit. When I go out to do some flying, I have four batteries each of my drones, I take a lens cleaning kit, SanDisk portable SSD, drive a pocket power bank with cable to charge the controller while I’m flying, depending on the shoot location I take a landing pad that I can clip on to my carry case, Micro SD cards in mini zip locks, and sometimes I take my GoPro 10. At times I take my iPad Pro 12.9 inch for viewing my files. I can’t carry a backpack due to a physical limitation, so I use a PeakDesign Everyday Messenger 13L and use the shoulder strap. For charging I use the ECO FLOW River Max for very fast charging that I carry in the back of my SUV.

    I ordered the fly more kit plus from Amazon on the 29th! It went on sale next day for 7 % off so I cancelled it next day and reordered with an additional sun shade for the rc for same price on the 30th. I have only flown it twice and as a first time drone owner I am HOOKED!!! But in strong sun I had trouble pointing the control towards the drone trying to shade the control. I hope this helps and would like feedback from anyone using this accessory. I also ordered the bright sun kit after watching another of your videos so thank you for posting! From North Bay Ontario Canada keep the props toward the sky.

    Finally received my M3P & Flymore kit this past Friday. I got a bit of a start at first. Of course, when you 1st get it, there are updates to do, so I got those performed for my RCN1 version. What DID NOT get updated automatically was the APP for my Galaxy Note 9 (Android) phone. So, my initial attempts at operating the M3P were disappointing. The gimbal did NOT want to seem to "lock in". It floated up ... then down .. and wouldn't stay centered. I was so confused, I sent an email to DJI Support. After a day of conteplating the situation, I checked to make sure all updates were latest. Found that the APP on my cell was v1.6.1 .. so updated that to v1.6.9 (latest for RCN1). After that, the gimbal seems to work normally. Put in a short test flight out of my front yard, and was amazed at how quiet it is and its stability and ability to stay put & not drift around. Brought it INSIDE the house and took off from the living room floor. Again, SO quiet & it didn't drive a centimeter one way or the other .. very impressive compared to my Phantom 3 Adv. or Evo 1.

Got a spare SD card on the way, using a couple I had lying around as I've only had my Mini 3 Pro a couple of weeks so still learning it but getting some good shots already. Next thing on my list will be a bag or case, don't need a back pack and not sure if I need the hard case. Will also look at getting some filters before going away.

    My first additions were a screenn protector and a lanyard - it's quite freeing for setting up if you can hang the controller from your neck rather than risking placing it down.
    Next up - NDs. Only thing is which ones - the circular polarizer ones or the standard ones? I wonder how easy it is to get the dialled-in polarization correct pre-flight (can change a camera polariser in use).

    Fly more kit, a pair of plus batteries to add to it (I will be up to a week between recharge opportunities) and a polarised ND filter set (I will probably only carry a couple of filters though).
    I've also been making cases to make hold drone and controller to both protect them and keep them accessible without needing to take my pack off, open it up etc.

    Hi Darren, Having recently retired from a wedding videography business, I opened a youtube channel and started to make local history documentaries for pleasure. I am in the process of buying my first drone to expand my film content and decided on the dji mini 3 pro. I have completed my flyer ID and Operator ID and spent the last two months looking at youtube clips on how to fly, tips and advice. As per usual most of the creators are from canada or the states and not everything they talked about was relevant to me. It took me ages to find you, a UK based creator who speaks my language and a yorkshire lad too (Im a geordie from Newcastle). I love your videos they are really helpful and particularly this one explaining the do's and don'ts of accessories. Anything you do on the mini 3 pro I will be soaking up in buckets. Thank you, keep them coming. best wishes Jon

    @waldoiswhere Před rokem +1

    I have a charger that supports high draw tech. I also have the Fly More Kit Plus. I tested this several times and I can attest that if you have the power available the charging hub will draw 3A @ 12 V (36W). While a 30W charger will do well a 45W charger will be faster. Both the extended battery and the 249g battery will charge at the same rate. The charger for the controller makes no difference since it is low draw (5V @ 2.8A).
    Honestly it is only a 20% difference in charging rates, nothing if you are charging only one battery but a measurable time savings if all your batteries need recharging.

    On the topic of memory cards, if you plan to film in 4k you MUST use a U3 card. U2 and lower don't have enough bandwidth for recording 4k videos and will corrupt your footage. So price and brand aside, the least you should get is -U3- cards.

    • @StencilMunky
      @StencilMunky Před rokem

      Would a U1 card be sufficient enough to use for screen recording? When I bought my drone, my wife picked me up a 64gb U1 card, figuring that would be fine. She didn't know that a U3 was needed to handle the bandwidth of 4k video.

    • @firstdondiego
      @firstdondiego Před rokem +1

      @@StencilMunky that, I'm not sure about. Screen recordings are usually 720p but I'm not sure if there would be a bandwidth issue there. But you can always test it out and see what happens. If it gets corrupted, then you know it's no good. Lol

    Great video ! Wanted to tell you about a dumb accessory I bought once and almost lost my Air2s over it. I picked up the drop mechanism because I thought it would be cool to Cary stuff in the air and drop it off elsewhere. Well, that was a lesson hard learned. I took my first flight with the drop mechanism and decided to deliver a cigar to my brother in law just a few blocks away. All was good until the draft caused by the propellers drove the cigar straight into the propellers. The string got caught in the propellers and I watched on my screen helplessly as the drone spiraled down towards the ground. Once it came to a crashing stop, I used the find my drone feature to located. 2 blocks away, there was my Air2s on a tree in someone’s back yard. Luckily I was able to get promising from the homeowner to climb the tree and recover my drone. I feared the worst, but when I finally got the drone in my hands all looked good. Only damaged props. No broken arms and the gimbal was intact. The tree broke it’s fall. Just beside the tree was a lake. An inch further and my drone would have gone right into the lake. The cigar was still attached, but shredded. After that, I immediately took off the drop mechanism and returned it to Amazon. My lesson was learned, I will never add silly accessories to my drone.

    I love the prop strap. Works great. I'll disagree with you on the second set of control sticks. I'm gonna drop and loose on. I'd rather have a second set of inexpensive sticks in my bag for when I inevitably need one.

    @4nciite Před rokem

    The landing legs are useful if you live in the desert southwest, where there really aren't any good places to land a drone, unless you absolutely love cleaning dust off of your drone for 30 minutes and landing in your hand is hard sometimes when the drone refuses to come down to your hand on a windy day, which I have experienced a few times. Also the color of the dirt apparently confuses the drone because it always bounces on the dirt before stopping which kicks up dust everywhere.

    Enjoy your videos as always, but I will also disagree on the landing legs accessory. I am still new at flying drones so I have not mastered the hand takeoff/landing. I plan to take my drone to beach areas where the legs will minimize sand getting into the M3P. Plus, I already have the advanced batteries, so my drone is over the 250 gram limit.

  • @andyr8812
    @andyr8812 Před rokem +19

    Another accessory that I find extremely important, and it was one of the first that I bought, was the propeller guard. If you plan to fly your drone indoors, this is absolutely essential. Never fly your drone in confined spaces without the propeller guard. Once the drone's propeller hits a wall or any other object, it will fall and probably cause expensive damage. Believe me, I have learned it the hard way. The propeller guard will still keep the drone hovering if it hits a wall.

    • @firstdondiego
      @firstdondiego Před rokem +3

      Lol. Yeah I learned this the hard way too. Especially since the drone can't stabilize without the GPS signal. I once made the drone take off from my floor and it rocketed straight into the ceiling.

    Only just found your channel and I have an honest question regarding flight over water. I, along with a friend, are rowing 3000 nautical miles from La Gomera to Antigua for charity. This is going to take around 40-50 days. I intend to take regular drone footage, documenting and streaming from the vessel. What would you suggest as an ‘as safe as possible’ option to fit to a drone, should it land on water? This is not the plan, but it would be nice to have an option of recovery? I understand the risks involved in flying over water, no rules will apply regarding weight and all flying will take place in the calmest of conditions and within visual line of site.

I use a pad but landing, many times I have to put down in the sand. Already have had to clean out the motors. The higher the better. Hand catching is not an option due to a hand disability.

    I purchased my M3P with the RC-N1 since I preordered before there was any info out there on the RC controller. Two months after I preordered and received my M3P, there were numerous video's on how great the RC controller was, so I purchased one. Unfortunately, after unbinding my RC-N1, I was unable to bound the new RC controller and after 4 flights was locked out from flying. Sad part was I only had my M3P for two and a half weeks. After numerous calls and chats with DJI, they had me return the drone and both controllers. They did send me a return label and they just received the drone today. Wondering if anyone else has had this issue, and if so, did you have to send your drone back and how long did it take for DJI to return it? I've also heard that since I registered the drone with the RC-N1, the flyaway portion of the DJI Care warranty is now void. Has anyone else heard this? Thanks
