I’ve had the chance to fly DJI’s Mini 3 Pro for the past few weeks, and it has quickly proven itself as a top player in DJI’s lineup of drones. But is it everything we have waited for? Check out our DJI Mini 3 Pro review below.

Noticed by DJI leaker Jasper Ellens first, DJI has mysteriously removed its Mini 2 drone from the US and Canada Amazon stores. This could presumably be ahead of the rumored release of the Mini 3 Pro drone.

Update: After publishing, the Mini 2 returned to DJI’s Amazon stores in both the US and Canada after being off for about two days.

Last week we saw more leaks detailing what DJI’s newest drone will be capable of. We also have a new drone on the market, well a “flying camera,” but basically a drone by Snapchat and more. Catch up on the top drone stories below.

Snap released its Pixy drone on April 28 at its Snap Partner Summit. The pocket-sized drone can take off and land in the palm of your hand. The drone is available for purchase today at the drone’s website.

A drone created by Aleksey Zaitsevsky shows what you get when you combine a racing drone and a net gun – a super fast drone with the sole purpose of catching other drones in its net. It’s insane to watch it fly.

We’ve seen law enforcement use drones in many different ways to keep the peace or search and rescue, but now you can add saving ducklings from a storm drain to that list.

A lot of leaks came out of DJI over the last week. We now have some rumored prices and release dates for the long-awaited Mini 3 and confirmation the company is working on a successor to the Inspire 2. Catch up on the top drone stories from the last week below.

This week we saw more rumors of the upcoming Mini 3 drone and, finally, a response from DJI over the Mavic 3 GPS issues. We also got a look at Autel’s Dynamic Tracking on the Lite+. Catch up on the top drone news below.

In December, we reported on rumors that DJI was working on a new drone for its Inspire line of professional video drones, but no other information has been leaked or found that it’s true. Well, we finally have some photos of DJI’s Inspire 3 out in the real world… well, a crashed one, that is.

April is here and already going by quickly. All rumors have pointed to DJI announcing its newest sub-250 drone this month. Notable leaker DealsDrone has stated that DJI’s Mini 3 release date could be April 28.

Mavic 3’s GPS connection problem has been known for quite some time now, and the most recent firmware update was supposed to fix it, but it still hasn’t done it for everyone. DroneDJ has learned that DJI has found the cause of the issue and will fix it via a firmware fix in the next two months.

Last week Autel released new firmware for its Nano and Lite series drones. One of the most anticipated features was Dynamic Tracking on the Lite+, but some pilots are experiencing issues with it, and so are we.

DJI again has been at the top of headlines over the last week, however not entirely for good reasons. We also revisit placing parachutes as a safety feature on drones. Catch up on the top drone stories from the past week below.

The last year has been pretty good for drone pilots of all levels. Whether you are an entry-level flyer or a professional looking for the best thing money can buy, something new probably came out that popped your attention. Autel‘s entry into the consumer market made maybe one of the more significant impacts on the industry, and for that, they received the “Best of the Best” distinction at this year’s Red Dot Design Awards.

Last week DJI released a new firmware update for its flagship Mavic 3 drone to fix its crippling-slow GPS acquisition issue. Unfortunately, while the update fixed the problem for some, others still find it challenging to connect to enough GPS satellites. Here is what we know so far.
