      @YusDyr Год назад +4

      Yeah. That was the most important part for me too. As well as 5.2GHz channel instead of 2.4/5.8GHz of DJI - so it has less chances to be jammed by common dron jammers.

  • @ozstrayapanoramas8610

    The reason the Nano+ is better in low light is because of different sensor technology.
    The Nano+ has a RYYB sensor which obtains 40% more light, has better dynamic range & more image detail than the similar sized RGGB sensor on the Mini 3..

    All in all a very balanced review -great job. I own the Autel Evo 2 Pro, the Nano Plus and an DJI Air 2s - I love the Air2s for general use but the Evo 2 Pro is what I always use for Pro shoots. I love my Nano Plus but would probably agree that the Mini 3 pro is the better choice. My Nano plus comes in handy in low light or night shooting where my other drones wouldnt perform well.

  • @MrRiverwind
    @MrRiverwind Год назад +27

    I'm so happy with my Evo Nano+. I bought it after seeing many comparisons and I finally chose due to it's better image quality in both day and night shots, the Xbox type controller and the better and stronger signal. I'd never buy the Mini 3 Pro with that blurrier image. The only down side is the lack of active track...hope autel do a good job as they finally include it.

    They're great drones to have. But flight experience is more rewarding on the Mini 3 Pro, prolly because of the available tech features that you can try on the drone or maybe it's also because flight has been smooth and hassle free!

    I would be interested in the Nano+. I had also shity times when moving from Parrot Anafi to DJI Mini 2. (1. tilted horizon, 2. disconnection issues, 3. unstable altitude) and it was the 4th Mini 2 that actually worked. Took 2 months to make all the exhanges. And in the end I don't enjoy flying the Mini 2, so thats why I would like to try the nano+.

    Autel: if you like windows and freedom and customized experience and not forced updates etc. (what you will lose though 4k 60 fps/ only get 30. ) not too bad
    but with DJI if you are a apple fan.. and like expensive pretty experiences but are forced to do as they say. (inaccurate GEO FENCING compared to what the FAA apps say that wont let you fly thanks DJI) and forced remote ID on drones that do not require it (sub 250gram recreationally)
    there I said it.. Autel is younger and has hickups but they are better than DJI as a company

  • @qualudia1

    I too have had problems with my nano +. Basically Autel why did he get the jump on the 250 g market before DJI released the mini 3. They rushed it, they released it before it should’ve been released. Autel has been playing catch-up ever since. Still no dynamic tracking, still a lot of bugs. They just had another firmware update yesterday. I do believe in AUTEL and do believe that their drone will be most excellent. I just wish it would have been more polished upon release. BTW, great video dude. Great delivery.

There was so much wrong with it and although it has a much better camera overall than my Mini 2 it was not worth the purchase. I believe the Mini 2 is a much better quad all in all and I was a huge fan of Autel. I have not touched an Mini 3 Pro but I can compare it to the Mini 2.

    Thanks for your comparison of these two little beasts! As much as I like the sharpness of the Nano Plus, I still think the Mini 3 is overall the best! My determination was made for me with regard to that damn Geofencing so I got the Nano Plus! I really hate that fencing! I can get LAANC authorization where I live but you have to move mountains to get the license and the authorization for DJI to open Restricted Zones! Unless you preplan in my area, forget it! You will completely miss your shot! But... I am not a big fan of Autel either! They completely failed the Evo 1 when the Evo 2 came out! They dropped it like it had COVID! In addition, for a "supposedly American Made" drone, I have had horrific experiences trying to reach Autel for ANYTHING! Bottom line, they are both out to make money! Screw the consumer is the way I see them both! We need another competitor that will crush these deficits!!! Ugh! Damn drones! LOL!

      If you can't fly enough because battery sucks, because range sucks, because software sucks.. if it is unstable.. if the controller is a pain in the ass.. then maybe it is not the winner.. there are many things to consider in a drone experience.. it is not just a flying camera.. Some people use for professional photography.. some use for social media, funny content, personal memories.. so maybe they are not concerned with ultra high quality pictures taking in low light situaitons

      Doesn’t mean you’re allowed to fly in more places… people wanting a drone for this are basically saying they just don’t care with breaking the rules… and given how loud the autel is, chances are you will get caught sooner or later if you do this often.
      In the DJI app, you most of the time get just a warning and you can click it away, but at least you know the restrictions such as in height. On the autel you need to stay under the same height, and when caught, saying you didn’t know won’t cut it. Because you are supposed to know this before taking off… Only places where the DJI actually can’t fly is forbidden area’s like airports… lets hope you don’t want to do things like that…

      @@kenweller2032 Almost all geo fence areas on DJI you can dismiss by one simple click. So it is a very small inconvenience but at least you are aware of the situation. The very few where you really can't take off is very close to an airport or so. But you have to be very close, a bit further away, you're in a geofence that gives you a warning and you can dismiss it at your own responsibility.
      And if you have permission, you can send that to DJI and they remove the geofencing completely for you. That's what firefighters and police and other professionals do.
      I can use your analogy of a car speeding too:
      Flying with an Autel is like getting a speeding ticket, while you didn't even knew you were riding too fast, because there were no speed signs along side te road. But the cop told you, you should have known them by first studying a map beforehand at home on the rules on that specific road.

    I have both the Mini3 and the Nano Pluss. Similar to you I had to send the first Nano I got back. All it would do was self check the gimbal till the Battery was dead. "But" I had to send The First Mini 3 back as it gave me every fault the DJI ever had...... Range I get the opposite results as you did. Mini 3 range is just terrible. I can always fly the Autel farther. Mini 3 definitely just fly's so much better than the Nano and Longer. Ease of used I would have to pick the Mini 3. Everything DJI promised is there where as I'm still disappointed with Missing features that Autel promised. Camera wise I would say that the Nano is better, personally in Auto I prefer the Mini 3 but photo's and low light it's the Nano hands down. DJI just gives you a little better value for your money and the DJI RC just makes it so much easier. For now since they are both so small I keep both in my camera bag.... Autel needs to do a better job to give what the promised. It took a bunch of folks complaining for them to fix the fight speed issue, the batteries not auto discharging and some other issues. Unfortunately I don't think the Obstacle sensors are good enough for Auto trac. I have to turn them off all the time due to false hits on a sunny day

    you still cannot fly these mini drones over people legally. the 250gram limit for “over people” flight applies with a prop guard of some kind. So you need to have the prop guard AND be under 250 grams for it to qualify to fly over people. Unless it is transitory.

    When a less known competitore goes toe toe with the market leader i think its a mistake to price competitively. If your product has any inferior qualities at all they will be amplified by consumers because of the price. You have to earn the right to charge a premium. And you do that with a superior product not one that has all kinds of issues.

    I think it's pretty irresponsible for you, as content creator, to make a review/comparison video that bashes a manufacturer for sending you 3 bad drones in row when the actual issue was your inability to follow instructions properly. It's literally almost 1/5 of this video's total length (1:20-4:20). That whole section should have been preceded with a disclaimer that said something to effect of in the end it was your mistake but here's how it unfolded. There's zero doubt in my mind if 100 people click on this video with the sole intention of deciding between these two drones at least 20-30 of those people would have stopped watching only to have never realized the drones were probably fine and it was YOUR fault. If you're a DJI fanboy however this makes sense. This is the first video of yours I've seen so I don't know if that's true.
