Drone flying made easy with the DJI Mini 3

The big highlight of the small DJI Mini 3: Since it weighs less than 250 grams, 249g to be exact, you can also Fly without a drone licenseThis makes them particularly interesting for new pilots. Either way, you should familiarize yourself with the rules of your driver’s license. You also have to register the drone online because it has a camera. Liability insurance is also mandatory.

Then we can get started, and how: Up to 58 km/h The Mini 3 is fast and lasts about 20-30 minutes on one battery charge. The good flight characteristics are, according to various tests (eg at Techradar ), really fun – you can extend this by using the Fly More Combo * with two extra batteries, charging station, spare rotors and a bag. But that also costs 130 euros more.

In contrast to the more expensive Pro sister, it is not on board. There are only sensors for landing on the underside of the drone. So you should always fly with a little caution. The practical “Follow Me” function, where the drone flies after you, is only available on more expensive models.
