Lets start with the weight because this is the important bit. In the UK, drones less than 250g can be flown in recreational areas, residential areas, industrial areas and close and over people not involved in your flight. You still need to respect people's privacy and fly safely but so much less restricted than >250g drones. You do need to get an operator ID which costs £9 a year. You don't need a flyers ID but it is a free online exam which isn't rocket science just to ensure you fly safely. Size. It is slightly too big to just put in your pocket but will fit in a jacket pocket or cargo-pants which means you can literally take it with you without the need of a cumbersome bag. It should be noted that under UK law, you have to keep it in line of sight. As soon as you get any great distance, bexause of it's size, it can be a real bugger to keep your eye on it. Just glancing at the phone on the controller and looking back up, might take a moment to get visual eyes on again. Battery. You get about 23minutes flight time. Occasionally, I think I should have gone for the fly more combo set with the extra batteries but my wife knows that if I'm popping out to do some recording, I generally won't be long. I can imagine that if you have travelled to some remote location for filming, you will want the extra batteries, especially if you are going to make a day of it. That said, a third party charger that will charge more than one battery at a time may be better than the DJI which charges sequentially. Photo and video quality. Being able to shoot raw is awesome and the film quality is very good. I've yet to purchase any ND filters so the 180degree rule is pretty much out of the window in bright conditions. Take off and landing. This really needs a nice flat surface but as long as you don't face into the wind, you can take off and land by hand. Take off from grass or sand is generally a no no but you can take off and land on a book or magazine until you get the confidence to do it by hand. Sound. It does not record sound but then, it sounds like a swarm of hornets when close. As soon as you get some height, you can no longer hear it. Wind tolerance. This handles wind really quite well. When it encounters wind that pushes it's tolerance, it will warn you. I've not done anything stupid with it but at 14mph winds, it's quite steady . Controls. Whilst you can tweak the settings for exactly what you are trying to achieve, even on cine mode, it really is quite sensitive, requiring only the slightest movement on the controller. There is a "normal" mode and a sports mode that I have not even tried yet. Whilst it has a downward crash avoidance system, in sport mode, the stopping distance will be further than the system can accommodate so you could theoretically slam it into the ground if you're not careful. Overall, I'm very impressed with this drone. There is a return to home feature and it will try to return to home if the batteries are running low. That said, I noticed on the drone lost and found site that these drones do get reported missing which means that this feature is not infallible. I think that as long as you are sensible, this drone will pose you no issues. If you take it out in a hurricane or fly it out of your visual line of sight, you may run into problems. I also not that the US drone authority are actively monitoring Youtube for drone footage that breaks their rules and I do not know if the UK aviation authority are doing the same. It's just easier to follow the rules.

Let's start with the make of the drone DJI, they are the premium brand when talking about drones. I had my first drone in 2014 which was a DJi Phantom F40. This mini 2 has absolutely blown me away with its features. It's a powerful and capable little drone with an excellent 3 way gimble, ensuring your video is rock solid stable. The drone has lots of safely features like return to home if it loses single (or you panic your gonna lose it) It doesn't however have obstacle avoidance so be careful and fly safely. It is a perfect drone for the beginner who wants a little more than a £100 toy. On that note, it's not cheap at £420 but worth every penny in my opinion. I would advise you take out the care refresh package (you don't need to) if recommended in case you crash, you can get the drone repaired or replaced for a very small cost. Also, think about third party insurance (your choice not required). Overall the drone is fantastic and great fun, plus the video footage is like a professional has recorded it. Spend the extra money is my advice don't buy cheap. The mini 2 SE is a great buy to, however it lacks 4K recording and the camera zoom, having said that it's cheaper.

This is a great drone. It's tough and I've put it through it's paces. It' also a brand that can be trusted with quality and cost. You get what you paid for, it's small and powerful, easy to use although drone flying takes time and practice.

I had a Mini 2 for a year and a half but it crashed beyond repair, so I bought this one despite the Mini 3 having been released. The Mini 2 has a much better value for money than the Mini 3 because they have pretty much no difference when it comes to features, battery life, video quality, etc. but the Mini 2 is about half the price of the Mini 3

This DJI Mini 2 is the best beginner drone you can get for the price, compared to other DJI drones this is much cheaper but it is still very good. The drone can go very far, I have gone up to 600 meters before it loses connection, if it does lose connection it will automatically return to the start location so it is hard to loose it. The drone also has a sport mode which is quick, it can get around very fast and its a lot of fun! The quality of the videos are up to 4K and they look clear, but you have to have a high capacity SD card to store the 4k videos, it does not come with a sd card. It folds up and you can fit the drone and controller in a small bag easily, the controller has a grippy texture and its good to hold, you connect your phone using the included cables which gives it a stronger connection, the controller can also charger your phone which is handy. It takes me around 1 hour to charge the drone and 1 hour to charge the controller which is a fast charge time for the drone, also you can get extra battery's and swap them. The drone lasts around 20-30 minuets from full depending on the speed you are flying at. If the drone detects you have flown it too far with not enough battery to return it will automatically come back. You will need to get a licence to fly it though since the rules have changed, this is something you can do online.

Já usei, recomendo. É um drone valente, aguenta vento e tem uma estabilidade maravilhosa. Com muito vento a bateria não dura muito, mas em condições meteorológicas boa, dá pra chegar a uns 18 minutos de voo. Chegou muito rápido e vale a pena a compra. O lado ruim é pq não tem nota fiscal.

El DJI mini 2 es un buen dron lo recomiendo para principiantes pero ojo, no tiene sensores de colisión asi que recomiendo tenerlo siempre a la vista nunca volar muy cerca de obstáculos ni personas ya que puede chocar con todo si no se tiene cuidado lo bueno es que graba en 4k a 30 fps y hace buenas fotos, su estabilidad con el viento es bastante buena y tiene retorno a casa por si hay alguna emergencia por lo demás no esta nada mal para empezar ya que la relación calidad precio es buena pero si quieres un dron mas pro y con sistema mas avanzado este no es el tuyo.

nice drone and good service by seller

Tout d'abord je tiens à dire que c'est mon premier drone et donc ma première expérience mais qu'elle expérience et quel plaisir ! Ce drone est d'une qualité incroyable que ce soit au niveau de ses matériaux, de la conception et de l'esthétique je le trouve tout simplement parfait. Il est d'une légèreté absolue ce qui est un grand point fort pour moi qui souhaite l'amener de partout lors de toutes mes balades et mes randonnées. La prise en main est très facile mais nécessite tout de même un temps d'adaptation avant de pouvoir être serein avec et pour ça je vous conseil fortement de faire ses premiers essais dans un endroit où il n'y a aucuns obstacles ( arbres , poteaux électriques et j'en passe ) et bien-sûr le garder toujours à vue est une base à laquelle il ne faudra pas déroger car au vu de sa petite taille on le perd de vue assez rapidement. Très bonne prise en main de la télécommande, elle a été très bien conçue et l'utilisation est très agréable. Sur cette télécommande n'importe quel téléphone ( iOS comme Android ) peut être adapter via différents types de branchements. Il y a également sur celle ci plusieurs boutons qui permettent de changer de modes ( sport , cinéma ou normal ) et bien-sûr tout les autres boutons/ joysticks qui vous permettront de diriger l'appareil, changer de mode de prise de vue ( photos/vidéos ) ou encore régler l'orientation de la caméra vers le bas ou le haut grâce à la petite molette sans oublier le bouton urgence qui lui permettra de revenir à son point de départ en cas de problème ( jamais utilisé pour le moment pour ma part ). Les joysticks sont très bien , ni trop sensibles ni trop durs et facilitent énormément la bonne expérience de pilotage du drone. Le pack que j'ai pris possède qu'une seule batterie qui peut en moyenne faire une trentaine de minutes de vol ce qui est suffisant pour mon utilisation même si une deuxième batterie serait un plus. Le pilotage et l'apairage de la télécommande au drone se fait grâce à l'application DJI Fly. Cette application est très bien faite et très facile d'utilisation. On y voit bien-sûr la caméra en temps réel du drone mais on peut également faire tout les réglages de vidéos ou de photos comme le format , la résolution et beaucoup d'autres. Ce qui est bien également avec cette application est que l'on peut accéder aux médias ( photos/vidéos) pris avec le drone pour les télécharger sur les smartphones ou les partager. Mais le top est le logiciel de montage pré intégré dans cette application qui nous permet de monter nos vidéos gratuitement avec tout les outils nécessaires surtout dans la partie Pro et de les exporter aussi facilement. Les images que ce soit les photos ou bien les vidéos sont vraiment surprenantes de part leurs qualités même en Full HD et en 4K le rendu est sublime. En conclusion pour une première expérience je peux vous dire que j'ai été très content et je n'ai pas regretté mon achat bien au contraire. Il m'accompagne déjà de partout. La seule chose qui m'a manqué sur ce pack est la housse de rangement que j'ai du prendre à part.

A Very Good Drone.
