So what do we think of the video quality of the DJI Mini 4K drone????

[zaneromitassietrippers]

Is that the DJI mini 2 drone?? I still have mine, saving to get mini 4pro or air 3

[veganwarrior]

Is it possible to use letchi as it’s a mini 2se with a 4K camera

[Xenoose]

Did you color correct the footages? Tbh i can see mini 4k better than mini 2. The color processing also nice

[ricardogoldsztein]

What are the uk regulations to comply in order to fly this drone?

[fredyrodriguez]

Hi everyone, I’m looking to buy my first drone and have two offers to consider: the DJI Mini 3 for 369 EUR or the new DJI Mini 4K for 299 EUR. What are your thoughts? Is it worth spending an extra 70 EUR for the DJI Mini 3?

Thanks for your advice!

[ricardogoldsztein]

What are the regulations to comply in the uk to fly this drone?

[theashleynez]

It doesn’t shoot vertical tho . Like it says it will but then when you check the video it’s still horizontal

[johnny--dollar]

With the cheaper Potensic ATOM being released with all of the features like tracking. I feel DJI will have to update the firmware to include these features to stay competitive.

may i know whether the battery of dji mini 4k is compatible with other dji mini series?

[LeerroyyJankins]

Wondering if I should get this just for fun and because of the camera. I have the original Mini and fly that for fun. I also own the Mini 3 Pro but am less reckless with that one lol.

[samhillyersh]

Does anyone know if you can shoot vertically on the Mini 4K as I havent worked it out yet?

[davidbarrett]

Thanks Sid I just admire your videos 🙏🏾

[nmeister]

I like the controller. I just have my old Samsung S21 Ultra permanently installed. Screen is bigger, higher res, and considerably brighter than the model with the built in screen, also has never overheated on me 😅

[PaulFeinberg]

You know all about flying over water with drones! RIP DJI Air! Camera Camp Memories! Great video….donuts did look good…..last time I had just 1 was at NAB. Good job and nice haircut!

[TheDroneCreative]

This is the best intro for any drone video I have ever seen! 🤣

[youkrag]

Thanks for the video... Nice to get a Pro's opinion on the first drone I've bought (might upgrade if I get really bitten by the bug).

Regards your dislike of the remote. I've not used any other controller so can't comment too much except to say a/ if it's made the package more affordable for a first timer like me then I'm happy with that and b/ I've had no problems with my pixel phone overheating (UK based so maybe just not that hot) or activating any buttons on the phone. Maybe it's more of an iPhone problem than controller.

Thanks again for confirming the drone and image quality should be good enough for me to get a taste of the hobby! Andrew

I prefer the size of the Mini 4k compared to the pro Mini models more compact arms and props are shorter can handle a crash better I feel what's missing is the screen controller come on DJI add this drone to your screen controller alot of people are wanting this for their Mini 2 2se and the Mini 4k you can do it and Thanks for your video !

[sosaix]

Sooo...can't you just turn the phone the other way?

[Abtech]

Whatever Dji is thinking let me just shut my Basket Mouth 😂
