Da-Jiang Innovations, better known as DJI, is the world-leading manufacturer of aerial robotics technology for commercial as well as personal use.
That said, DJI recently introduced the Mini Pro 3, a small yet powerful and extremely portable drone. It weighs less than 249g, is regulation friendly, and is also the safest in the series.
While the hardware is impressive, in the last few weeks, DJI Mini Pro 3 owners seem to be facing an issue where the remote control screen is crashing or freezing (1, 2, 3).
The issue usually arises 2-4 minutes after the drone is airborne. The app starts locking, then totally freezes and becomes unresponsive. The video recording continues till the drone lands back home.
There seem to be no issues with the original firmware release as the issue only started since 01.00.0201 was installed.
Unfortunately, DJI is yet to acknowledge the Mini 3 Pro RC crashing or screen freezing issue, but here’s a word from one of their moderators.
Potential workaround
One member of the official DJI community forum suggested a potential workaround that fixed the issue for them. Feel free to give it a try and see if it solves the issue for you.
