Welcome to the Beta Preview of Maven EVO, our latest and most ambitious app designed for drone enthusiasts. If you’re flying a DJI Mini 3 or Mini 3 Pro, this update is tailored to unlock new possibilities and elevate your piloting experience. 🚁
Why Maven EVO?
When DJI released the SDK 5.x for the Mini 3 and Mini 3 Pro, it marked a major technological leap. However, this also came with a significant limitation: the 5.x SDK is not compatible with the older 4.x SDK used in our previous app. This incompatibility meant that simply updating the existing app was not an option.
To support these new drones, we had to start from scratch and build an entirely new app. While this was a challenging process, it also gave us the opportunity to rethink and improve many features, ensuring that Maven EVO is tailored to meet the needs of modern drone pilots.
Maven EVO is the result of months of hard work, learning, and innovation, and we’re excited to finally share a glimpse of what’s to come.
Key Features to Look Out For
Maven EVO introduces a suite of powerful tools, including:
- Waypoint Navigation: Plan and execute precise flight paths with customizable waypoints. Perfect for capturing cinematic shots or automating survey missions.
- Advanced Mission Planner: Take full control of your flight missions with an intuitive interface to configure complex routes effortlessly.
- VR Mode: Immerse yourself in a first-person view experience, bringing a whole new level of excitement to your flights.
- Virtual Copilot: Enable collaborative piloting or let the app assist you in controlling your drone for smoother, more efficient flights.
These features are crafted to maximize the potential of your DJI Mini 3 and Mini 3 Pro, ensuring seamless integration with your drone’s capabilities.
Release Timeline
We’re excited to bring Maven EVO to life, but we’ve encountered some delays in development. While we’re a few months behind our original schedule, the new ETA for the full release is before 2025. Thank you for your patience and continued support—it means the world to us.
Requirements
To use Maven EVO with your DJI Mini 3 or Mini 3 Pro, you will need:
- DJI RC-N1 Remote Controller
- Android 8.0 or higher
Note: Performance may depend on your device’s processing power and current system load. For the best experience, ensure your device has adequate resources available and limit background apps during use
Beta Preview Disclaimer
This is an early release, and some functionalities are still being fine-tuned. We’re committed to delivering a polished and user-friendly product
Hi, what is missing from Maven is a web interface like Litchi’s Mission Hub synchronized with the flying app. Maybe Advanced Mission Planner is something similar so that we could prepare the missions in our PC instead of our mobiles 6inc screen.
I assume that we could use the new mission planer for Maven too.
Import fails when I try to import CSV files exported from Litchi Hub. They “don’t look like standard mission files”. I don’t understand why it is not working any more.
Hi there,
Thank you for this I’ve been waiting for this update.
I do have dji mini 3 pro with DJI RC. Can I use this app with that controller or do I have to buy DJI RC-N1 ?
All the Best
Hi there,
Thanks for your question! The DJI RC doesn’t support third-party apps like Maven. For now, you’ll need the DJI RC-N1 (with a smartphone).
