◆ 1: Installation of the dedicated application 'DJI Fly'
To fly 'DJI Mavic 3', you need to install ' DJI Fly ', a drone management app made by DJI, on your smartphone. There are iOS version and Android version of 'DJI Fly', but this time I will use the Android version.
The iOS version of 'DJI Fly' is distributed on Apple's official app store, but the Android version is not distributed on Google Play and must be downloaded from the DJI download page. First, tap the link below to access the download page.

Tap 'Allow' when prompted to access the files on your device.

Now that the installation of 'DJI Fly' is complete, connect 'DJI Mavic 3' and 'DJI Fly'. Before making the connection, first charge the battery and transmitter.
You can check the connection procedure between 'DJI Mavic 3' and 'DJI Fly' by tapping 'Connection Guide' on the top screen of 'DJI Fly'.
When the model list is displayed, find and tap 'DJI Mavic 3'.
You will then be asked to turn on the transmitter and connect it to your smartphone.
Follow the instructions to turn on the transmitter. To power the transmitter, press the power button once briefly and then press and hold it for a few seconds.
When the power is turned on, connect the smartphone running 'DJI Fly' with the attached cable ...
When the dialog asking for permission is displayed, tap 'OK'.
Once the transmitter and smartphone are ready, you will be asked to turn on the DJI Mavic 3 itself ...
Attach the battery to the main unit ...
Press the power button twice, just like the transmitter, to turn it on.
When the DJI Mavic 3 main unit, transmitter, and smartphone are all ready, the images taken by the main unit camera will be displayed on the smartphone in real time. You can basically operate the takeoff and landing of 'DJI Mavic 3' and shooting movies and photos from your smartphone.
◆ 3: I checked the flight performance of DJI Mavic 3
Now that I'm ready to fly the 'DJI Mavic 3', I took it outdoors and tried it out.
To take off 'DJI Mavic 3', tap the takeoff button displayed on the left side of the smartphone, and then press and hold the button displayed in the center.
When landing, just like when taking off, press the button twice to land slowly.
You can see how the 'DJI Mavic 3' actually takes off and landing in the following movie.
'DJI Mavic 3' has three types of flight modes such as normal sports cinema, and the mode can be switched with the switch in the center of the transmitter. Obstacle detection is effective in normal mode, enabling safe flight. In sport mode, obstacle detection is disabled, but flight speed is significantly increased.
In the following movie, you can see the difference in movement between normal mode and sports mode.

In addition, the 'DJI Mavic 3' is equipped with an RTH function that automatically returns to the home point and lands. You can see how the 'DJI Mavic 3' is actually landed at the exact same location as the takeoff point using the RTH function in the following movie.

As a result of actually maneuvering the 'DJI Mavic 3', it was possible to confirm that the takeoff and landing was OK with the tap of a button on the smartphone, and that the automatic return function was also excellent. I also flew the 'DJI Mavic 3' for a total of about 30 minutes for this review, but it consumed only about 70% of the battery. The 'DJI Mavic 3 Fly More Combo' used this time comes with 3 batteries, so it seems that it will be possible to fly for a long time if all are fully charged.
