Mini 3 Pro FPV mode, safety issues

I suggest practicing for a good while at a high altitude before starting to get closer
0:06
to the ground, where the most spectacular results can be achieved. The obstacle avoidance system on the Mini 3 Pro works in FPB mode, but it lacks sensors
0:20
to the sides and above, therefore a lot of care is needed when flying at the same level
0:26
as the surrounding obstacles. When flying closer to the ground it is beneficial to use ND filters in order to get the correct
0:37
amount of motion blur. For obvious reasons the FPV mode is not meant to compete with the true FPV drone like the
0:48
DJI Avata. These models are specifically designed to perform fast, precise moves and are very well
0:59
protected in case of a crash. With the Mini 3 Pro I do not suggest going through small passages or other dangerous
1:07
moves, it would be too risky. It is possible to buy goggles and a motion controller stick for the Mini 3 Pro to get
1:19
an experience closer to the one of a true FPV model. As some of you know I'm not sponsored by any manufacturer, I don't even receive DJI models
1:30
in advance like many youtubers. I prefer to buy the products so that I can express my true opinion and only recommend
1:39
to my community products that I find really useful. In my opinion the goggles for the Mini 3 Pro are expensive, bulky to carry and also
1:50
a bit dangerous. From the point of view of regulations they are borderline as we are supposed to maintain
1:56
the aircraft within line of sight. I do not suggest using the Mini 3 Pro as a replacement for a true FPV drone
2:06
The FPV mode should be seen as a way to add a bit of creativity to your own footage and photos
