DJI Mini 3 Series 360° Propeller Guard — Lightweight Safety Shield for Mini 3 Pro & Mini 3

Introducing the DJI Mini 3 Series 360° Propeller Guard

Designed to shield the propellers with a lightweight, breathable framework, this guard adds a practical layer of protection for beginners practicing in indoor spaces or cluttered rooms. The fully wraparound design keeps blades within a defined boundary, which can help reduce the likelihood of accidental contact with walls, furniture, or curious hands during early flights. Real-world use often feels calmer and more controlled when practicing around obstacles or in tighter spaces.

Key benefits at a glance

• 360° protection around the propellers helps create a more controlled learning environment.
• The guard is lightweight, with a per-side weight of 42 g and a compact footprint that minimizes bulk.
• Proximity shield with a 94 mm radius and installation dimensions of 416×334×89 mm (L×W×H) support stable maneuvering in tighter spaces.
• Compatibility with DJI Mini 3 Pro and DJI Mini 3 broadens the range of drones you can equip with this guard.

What changes when you install it

Before mounting, make sure the drone runs firmware v01.00.0450 or later to help maintain flight stability. After installation, obstacle avoidance is not active, and intelligent flight features may not detour or brake for obstacles.

• The total aircraft weight increases; you should verify local regulations and obtain any required approvals for flights exceeding 250 g.
• Do not use the Intelligent Flight Battery Plus after installation to avoid overloading the drone’s capacity.
• The guard’s addition can alter handling slightly, so plan flights in open spaces first, then gradually explore tighter environments.

Practical scenarios and setup tips

Indoors, off-center rooms, or spaces with furniture edges are common test grounds for the 360° guard. The design helps you maintain a defined space around the drone, making practice sessions calmer and more predictable while you focus on basic control and framing.

For safe storage and transport, the guard stays attached, reducing the chance of accidental blade exposure during handling or transit. Always confirm that your flight plan aligns with local rules, especially if you anticipate flying in public or shared spaces.
