I always like it when people actually use the product for a reasonable time before they give a review. I hate the "unbox, use it once, review as great" – I think obviously paid reviews. Fair and honest is always worth it. Thanks for your opinion on this product.
That was a great review. It's given me a bit of confidence to try some winter flying. I've been chicken to try up to now.
Very thorough and helpful review, thankyou
Is it still in 2021 a good drone, because I want to buy it for christmas
In the U.S., you not only need to be Part 107 certificated to use the drone for NON-recreational use (as others have stated in the comments), but many don't realize that you still must register this drone with the FAA if it is being used for non-recreational use. Registration is NOT required ONLY for recreational use — as long as you keep the drone under the weight requirement. All other FAA rules/laws still apply to the drone and it's use.
As for the recording failure on mine if I don’t turn the Record off before Turning the Mini off this have an effect on the recording so when you enter it into your MacBook it says something like it’s corrupted or cannot read the file ! I then try the same mini sd card with the film on it a few days later and it works !
I’m no expert but I’ve found this works! Stop the Recording before turning off the drone and controller etc! and hopefully this may solve your problem. Also with the props I had it tell me that the left rear wasn’t ok and I couldn’t see anything wrong with them, but changed them anyway and hey presto I was back flying again! Great little drone, and now I’ve just purchased the mini 2, like your channel so will be subbing! 👍🇬🇧
Great video. Found answers Tommy questions here. Thanks for the upload.
So if you want to be a Professional Aerial Photographer and work for Hollywood or National Geographic …. Don't get the Mini ! … Buy a Bigger More Expensive drone , that you have to Register , Pass a Test to Fly and Know how to do all the Technical Skills of a Professional Photographer ….. Hmmmm ….. But the Mini gives you some Fantastic stabilized Pictures , Costs less than a DIY Drone and comes with everything You Need to get Started ! …. Plus you can stick it in your Pocket and take it anywhere ! ….. Basically a Go Pro that Flies for 25 minutes , up to a mile away and for the same Price ! ….. When you think about it ….. the Mavic Mini or Mini 2 is the Best Bang for your Buck going !
Bravo, 👏👏👏👏👍👌🤫 I like your honesty review very different from other sources 😘🙏I just bought mine from Costco maybe I will fly in spring time.
Hej from Denmark , love you crontri 😊
i wont be using this for range or in extreme weather conditions.
mainly just filming cars, do you think this was a smart purchase? or should i have waited?
👍
Simply letting you know, the footage is pretty affected by the youtube compression. I have seen much high quality image coming out of this little drone im other reviews. You should try to upscale you videos to 4k and upload after. Usually will not compress as much 😁
People keep getting one thing wrong. The only thing the mavic mini relieves you from is registering it with the FAA. However rules and regulations governing operations still apply. And the license refers to if you want to use the drone for commercial use. The drone only weighing 249 only relates to registering it with the FAA.
I bought mine in Switzerland and the European version is not going more than 300 meters, a huge disappointment. The camera quality is pretty good, specially if you have some ND filters. Beyond that, birds don't respect it's size and try to attack it. It's weight is very light and strong winds can make the mini's life very hard.
Very cool photography!! I wish DJI would have developed for a 32 bit phone.
Thank you for the informative review. Very straight forward and thourough. Thank you.
Thank you for this review. Very practical and honest. Your location looks great for filming. Im interested in your cold weather experience. While where I am i don't get a lot of cold days, we do usually have a few days with snow and i normally do a lot of photography of nearby farmlands etc. Knowing what to expect when flying in cold weather is helpful indeed. Looking forward to more of your videos.
Love ❤ from India🇮🇳
Love my Mini as well. Such a great drone. Nice video.
