Our 41st anniversary is this coming Sunday the 11th.  Billie Sue surprised me today with a Dji mini 3 drone!!  This thing is so cool, and so easy to fly. Can't wait to get to town so I can get a SD card for it so I can video.

Cool! they are fun.  I have the DJI Mavic pro, which is old now, the mini 3 has more range and flight time and with their extended battery almost doubles that. Just have to watch the wind its easy to get them down range and struggle to get them home. The only issue I have with them is its hard to see the screens of phone or Ipad in bright sun. But I have a FPV goggle set for it that eliminates that.  They sell one that will work with the mini 3 as well if you ever think you want one.

My cousin bought one called the DJI FPV, which comes with a head set for 1st person view, but it also can go about 70 mph in perfect conditions and resist wind up to 30 mph.  But the cheaper ones are just fun to mess around with for video and pictures.

The FAA can KMA.

This one has the screen built into the controller.  But tell me about the goggles.
