I think it is. I had a Mini 2, the camera in the 3 is much better.
The camera hardware in 3/3pro/4pro is all the same.


Mini 2se vs Mini 3

https://www.droneblog.com/dji-min...ji-mini-3/
I have a $20 or so charger from Ebay or Amazon, charges 3 batteries. The flat type charger, the batteries stand in them, works for 3/3pro/4pro batteries. Performance is the same as an original DJI charger. I had one with a 3 pro bundle.
Batteries, I have one extra, was open box (new) $50.
When I had the 3pro with 3 batteries, I found out 2 batteries is my real need. My third battery was collecting dust.
I currently use this Mini 3 bundle.
Lowest Price so far AFAIK

Quote from flashmania123 :
You can pause/cancel the RTH feature and it still has obstacle avoidance also. So, if it goes near a building that is already at the same altitude as the drone it will either go around the building or above the building depending upon the height of the building and the limits of the drone.

The altitude setting is relative to the height you launched from, and is legally limited to 400 feet above the ground by the FAA.

Where is the best place to get extra batteries for the mini 3? From what I've read the mini 3 and 4 pro batteries don't fit the 3?

buy your batteries from your favorite local retailer; however, before you buy please check dji.com for compatibility since it is a bit confusing and other websites may not get it right.

I think mine came from Adorama. Was Open box a while ago.
Mini 3, 3 pro batteries are the same.
The one I am using in a 3, came from a 3 pro.
Not sure about 4 pro batteries in a 3.

Damn just got the ebay refurb DJI Mini 2 SE! On the bright side it came with second battery and DJI Care Refresh pricing was quite reasonable for crashing the cheaper drone up to 4 times.

Those of you that have experience flying drones, how strictly is the "line of sight" enforced near you?

I got the same. Was thinking of springing for this but it looks like when I add another battery etc it's not so much of a deal. The mini 2 SE I bought from dji refurbished still had the plastic seal wrap on it. Aka wasn't even ever opened. And with the coupon they had going when I bought it, it was 20% more off.

Enforced? Fly it over a parade or near an airport and you may get a response. Otherwise in 6+ years of flying drones I've never been asked this or approached about it.

Can these be hacked to overcome any gps restrictions and/or still be used if the ban happens down the road?

Add stadiums and race tracks 1 hour before, during and 1 hr after an event is happening.
In my case near was interpreted about 1/4 to 1/3 of mile at 400ft.
Cops where at the door when I was landing the drone.
Nothing happened and I learned this rule.

https://www.faa.gov/uas/resources...e/stadiums

Flying drones in and around stadiums that seat 30,000 people or more is prohibited by law beginning one hour before and ending one hour after the scheduled time of any of the following events:
Major League Baseball Game
National Football League Game
NCAA Division One Football Game
NASCAR Sprint Cup, Indy Car, and Champ Series Race

Flight with the 2 is fine. The camera in the 3 is the real difference.

Is the Costco DJI Mini 3 Pro bundle with 3 batteries worth the $330 extra?

Idk man, that's up to you. That's twice as much money. You can probably scrounge up another battery for the regular mini. Is active tracking, collision sensors, and nicer camera worth it to you? Is this your first drone?

I would say your money is better spent getting your feet wet with something cheaper and then deciding what you really want out of a drone.

How important is the screen on the controller in 4. Should I get this or wait for the 4 to go on sale?

1st drone, I was concerned with drone hitting something. I thought collision detection would be beneficial for a new drone flier.
