DJI Mavic 3 firmware update is finally here to unlock long-awaited features – v01.00.0500
Finally! Today, the Chinese dronemaker DJI released the new DJI Mavic 3 Firmware Update we have all been waiting for. This firmware update unlocks all of the features we have been waiting for since the launch of the flagship DJI drone. Let’s jump in.
When the DJI Mavic 3 was launched right before the holiday shopping season, many drone pilots were very excited. After all, this was the new flagship DJI drone that came to the market after three years of waiting. You can imagine the disappointment when we found out that many of the important features of this drone would not be available for months. No, DJI told us we had to wait until January of 2022, to see these missing features made available through a firmware update.
Well, we are happy to inform you that the day has finally arrived and you can now update your new DJI Mavic 3 with DJI’s latest firmware. BTW, be sure to update the DJI Fly App as well.
