DJI Mini 2 First Flight & First Impressions

In this video, I am taking the new DJI Mini 2 out for my first flight and offer some of my first opinions of the drone. This is not a full review video, that will come once I have had more time testing it and flying it. This drone is pretty incredible for the size and price, during my first flight I could really see the performance boost as it handled the wind much better, and what can I say about Ocusync 2.0, it's amazing. The 4K video with a higher bitrate is pretty good, sharp with a lot of detail.

As someone completely new to the drone world (no purchase yet) I really appreciate that you do not overload us with too much information all at once. Kudos

It just amazes me what you get from dji for your bucks. I'm sold.

Great Videos on the DJI Mini 2. I have been researching buying a first drone for a first go around. Your videos have shown excellent information/tutorials on how they in models, etc. Thank you.

Two words.. Thank You! Drone was delivered last night and excited for my first flight. Wanted to do some research before I take off, stumbled across your videos and now a lil more comfortable and excited to get out there own my own.

These drones are just amazing I watch my drone videos on my new 4K 48 inch TV and it's unbelievable, it's the only true 4K you can watch practically

I was looking to purchase the DJI mini 2 and I'm so happy I came across your videos. I'm definitely going to get one after watching what this beast can do. Thank you for what you do.

The Mini 2 is my *second* drone; I bought the much cheaper Holystone HS510 first just in case the learning curve proved to be steeper than expected, and that proved to be a prescient decision because I did indeed crash the HS510 several times on the first few flights, and even managed to lose visual contact with it twice while zipping around a large vacant field. I also learned that relying on WiFi for the camera means you really only have about a 100m / 300' range if you want to actually monitor what is being recorded and that a motorized gimbal is a necessity, not a luxury, as it is needed to cancel out almost all of the disturbances from wind gusts and maneuvering. Still, I don't regret the purchase of the HS510 at all because if any of the crashes had rendered it lost or beyond repair I would've only been out $160, rather than $500. Also, I managed to sell it to someone else just getting started with drones for a modest discount so I consider it a win-win for all involved. That said, the Mini 2 is definitely worth the extra money, and I now know this from experience, rather than conjecture or assumption.

Yeah this is unreal. I remember when the Mavic 2 Pro seemed like the perfect drone. It’s close, but the size of this for travel is just amazing. the quality is amazing. Everyone always talking about the 1 inch sensor on the Pro. But my eyes can’t tell. I’m not pro so this is a no=-brainer! I was waiting for Ocusync. Thank you for the video.

Thanks for doing these reviews. They are really helpful. 👍🙂

[davidanderson]

Great video! This is really helpful for someone like me who has never used a drone but really fancy getting their first one (I’m a photographer) thinking I might go for this when I have a little money, cheers

Hidden in the specs- The Mini 2 supports the Galileo satellite system in addition to GPS and GLONASS from before. That's why more satellites sensed. By the way, I'm wondering how this will affect the precision of the non-precision Mini series auto-landings... (The Mavic Air 2 etc are so amazing as you know, once you let them get a reading around 7m altitude.)
Thank you for all your drone and GoPro videos. You were my first subscription on these topics!

Now that you’ve flown the mini 2, is there a big difference in flying experience between the air 2 and mini 2, is it worth double the price, does it give you a lot of joy 🤩

[tenncutt]

Good video as usual. I had 24 satellites yesterday. The Mini 2 is my first real drone. Guess I'm going to be spoiled! I felt quite confident after a couple minutes in the air on my first flight. Have flown it twice now and it is amazing!

[petersterling]

Great Video. I like the Real time genuine first impressions. Good job.

[PhillyDroneLife]

I really enjoyed this buddy! I love this flying videos.... Sean I agree that this guy does just like the bigger drones. I just flew mine around the top of a sky scraper 😱😱😱 how's that for some resistance. Of course the camera almost popped off...😱😱👋👋lol lol. No kidding though. It's a fine deal and your right.. it's a lot of drone for the money. hey when the drones in the air you really don't know what it looks like it's in the air nobody could see it so all that matters is performance the pictures and the video.. it does all them almost perfect! I'm looking forward to some updates.. 🤟🤟 thx for sharing buddy..

Another Excellent Presentation, Clear, Concise & Coherent throughout, very professional.

Watching all your videos, I’m new to all this, just received my Mini SE and can’t wait to learn !

[pitbullrcltd]

Just charged up my Mini II for my first flight Ever… I bought the Mini II because I’m a first time drone pilot trainee and it seem to be a decent entry level aircraft….I have a few ground RCs and have been in the hobby a few years but I never flew anything.., lol glad I found your channel…. I’m looking forward to your series on the mini II I have a lot to learn … thanks for sharing……☮️~~~out!!

Use the Yagi-uda antenna to help with that signal loss in that particular area.
