The DJI Mic sounds great ✌️

I was the first one to complaint it to DJI guys officially and then have finally agreed to come up with a special adapter by DJI to fix the issue, so we don't have to attach all the complex stuff and multiple adapters to get the correct audio levels. BTW, nice video! Very nicely color corrected, loved it.

Just bought the Action 3 and the DJI Mics. Plan to try out the magnet on the chins windshield, then velcro/dual lock the mic into the inside of the helmet, and lastly, might adhesive cold-shoe the outside of the helmet and have a lav mic running in IF the dji transmitter doesnt fit inside the helmet nicely. But I have a feeling I wont need to mess with any velcro/duallock/adhesives. Gonna throw 1 transmitter in backpack and 1 in helmet to achieve engine sound + voice. Excited.

I really appreciate your video, this a very helpful and professional test of mics for the Osmo Action 3, I've had this camera for about a year, moved away from a GoPro because as you know is so unreliable, it messed up in my content a lot of times so I went for the OA3, but I also run into the audio issues, I really love the camera, video quality, battery, magnetic mount, everything. I have also tried with a lot of mics and adapters but wasn't able to crack the code as you did haha. It looks like the only way to get better audio with the OA3 is to "overwrite" the audio chip the camera has, like using the Rode AI or the DJI Wireless mic, so the audio gets recorded by an "external" hardware... Thanks again for your video, I just watched the other video you have testing the high SPL mic but that is very expensive for me, trying to find another option, I'm looking at the old Sennheiser ME2 witch has 130 max spl + Rode AI, lets see how it goes.

The upgrade is worth it, the OA4 is definitely better. Try to use an adapter and the Rode mic, works fine.

Copy and pasting this comment from a different video that mentioned the Rode AI Micro adapter: Rhönschrat 2 months ago I do like the Osmo Action 3 a lot, but still stick to my GoPro setup. Mainly as I find creative ways to deal with some of the issues. For example I developed my own GoPro remote as an iOS App (available in the App Store 😉) that allows my to control multiple GoPros at once while having a clear status on battery, free space and recording. I even got indication if the mic adapter oder Media Mod is connected correctly and show overheating message. For the Action 3 I use the AI-Micro from RODE as the microphone adapter. This allows a quite good gain control.

This is a question about the Rode mini AI, after watching your video I decided to buy it as it was the best option for me, however, you have shown that the settings in the Rode Mini AI are adjustable via the app on your phone then unplugged and plugged into the Osmo Action 3, I have found that the settings don’t save in the Mini AI device, if it is supposed to can you please do a walkthrough on this as I am not getting it, good video apart from this part not working as you have demonstrated.

hello! here I am again. Thanks to you I found the ultimate solution, I bought the Rode Ai Micro in combination with the Rode Lavalier Go and everything works great.
