DJI has published a firmware update for the Mavic 3 that fully unlocks all of the drone’s capabilities. DJI’s new firmware update gives the Mavic 3 drone more of its missing features, including panorama mode and more.
DJI released its highly-anticipated Mavic 3 drone in November, over 3 years after the Mavic 2. One of the biggest complaints was that many of the features it boasted in the press materials weren’t yet available. Promised update has finally arrived.
DJI has issued Aircraft Firmware v01.00.0500 and Remote Controller v04.13.0500 that can be installed through the DJI Fly App on iOS or Android (version 1.5.8 on both is required). It adds the last few features that bring the drone up to the full capabilities that were advertised at launch.
(The US price is $2,199 and it is now in stock at major US stores: Amazon, B&H, Adorama)
