DJI Mini 4 Pro - This Drone is Incredible

Today we're checking out the brand new DJI Mini 4 Pro. In this DJI Mini 4 Pro review, I'll be covering the Mini 4 Pro photo and video quality, the incredible features of the DJI Mini 4 Pro, the Mini 4 Pro's vertical shooting, and then I'll cover exactly who the DJI Mini 4 Pro is for. As this is a small, beginner-friendly drone it doesn't have every professional feature you might be able to find on DJI's other drones but, with that said, the Mini 4 Pro is packing loads of great features along with a wild 30-minute plus of flight time.

Just had mine flying today in 25-30 kts with gust up to 40kts and she obviously flopped around in the wind a little but the video was pretty solid. This will handle more wind than most would think. After today my confidence in this drone increased a whole bunch. Super easy and smooth to fly don’t hesitate to buy this just Because of the size

I'm considering buying the Mini 4 Pro, it will be my first drone ever. Your review was awesome and nailed the real strengths of this compact overachieving drone. I was always a fan of the mini lineups but the other models just didn't have what I needed. As a beginner, obstacle avoidance was a core feature I wanted and to finally have full 360 degree sensors, this is the first time the mini line has ticked all the boxes for me. As I am in Canada, the 249g is a must for me because I don't want to have to get a drone pilot license, I just wanna take it out and capture some amazing footage and pictures within legal operation. I think I've waited long enough and they have finally reached the point where they meet and exceed all my expectations.

04, Waypoints - which tou can set ginmbal angle, heading and zoom to manual, simulating dual operator mode and change heading during mission, better position accuracy x3 - outside of heavy winds its superb. Oh, and the Backward/Upward sensors allow it to find its way out from under a canopy or obstruction to fly home.

I have one…just bought it a month ago. I’ve only had one afternoon flying with it because the weather hasn’t been working out. I will say that the one afternoon that I flew it, I was incredibly impressed. It was so easy to fly it was ridiculous! Also the footage was drop dead beautiful. This is a tremendous drone. I also bought the DJI Avata 2 package with goggles and motion controller. I haven’t flown with any of that kit yet but look forward to it. I know it will be a lot of fun as well. Peace!

I'm still trying to figure out why people keep talking about this not being a PROFESSIONAL drone because of its size. What does the size of the drone has to do with its capabilities?

Love this video and the energy you bring to the table for this product! For people that are looking to buy or have already purchased and just looking for reassurance, this is the video for you! Lots of great information for beginners and even those that have owned a drone before. I also agree when it comes to DJI you aren't just paying for the brand name, like Nike. DJI is one brand that never ceases to amaze me. They go above and beyond with their product control, quality control, and combo kits. Yes the price of these drones are high but I have never felt I wasn't getting my moneys worth when it comes to any DJI Drone. I started with the mini 4k and have waited for a product like this one here. Mine will be here tomorrow!

Agree with everything you said about this little drone which I own, except one thing.... the batteries never last anywhere close to 30 minutes. I mean maybe if you just took off and let it hover for 30 minutes without moving it. But if your fly it around at all your actual battery life is about 15-20 minutes maximum. I ended up buying six batteries for this little guy so I could go out and fly it for about 90 minutes at a time. The battery will not last more than 15-20 minutes if you're moving around. Otherwise super, super impressed with it.

[alvintelin]

just bought it now, like literally right now. excited to test it out

[BlairAir]

Your describing Spotlight @9:00 - just to nitpick. I agree Spotlight mode is superb- we have it on all 3 caneras on Mavic 3 Pro, and paralax on a subject miles away on the 166mm equivalent 7x is otherworldly!

I just got mine and it's nice get if if you can make sure u get the rc2 remote. Price in us is around 1.2k

[Stealth-flash]

What video editing software should I choose? I'm a complete beginner but will put in the time to learn it. I don't want to choose and waste time when I could have gotten an educated recommendation. Thank YOU.

[brandon]

I'm ready to take the plunge and get A Mini 4 for my first drone. I've wanted one since the days of the original Mavic. You can get so much bang for your buck, at a much lower price point today. I can't wait to get one!

[johancabrerao]

Serious question. I do a ton of traveling and have bought a drone to capture some more videos of the landscape. How do i know if i can record or not? Or where are considered no fly zones?

[niv]

Hi, would I be able to use all the possible features on RC N2 that RC 2 offers along with the mini pro 4? For eg: would I be able to use active 360 tracking on N2 controller, etc? Thanks in advance!

[naturalLin]

I’m buying this for off-roading. Scouting trails ahead

[barrett]

I’m a drone newbie and just picked this up. At 1:30 you mention you need the filters. What is the need for the filters? What is the comparison without them?

[Hat_Uncle]

I got the Plus batteries, so it was 270g. That meant I had to get the Remote ID (from Holystone because it was cheap), so I also added a landing leg harness to mount RID under, night strobes(red, green, and white), and a gopro mount. Kitted out it's about 400g, I still get 35 minutes flight time AND I no longer have "wind issues" up to 15 mph with 20 mpg gusts.
For me that was counter intuitive, I expected the added weight to worsen the flight characteristics. The only thing I can figure is torque is much higher than needed and added weight means wind effects it less.

0:24 Please see the scene between 0:24 - 0:27 and please look at the bottom of the screen. What is this intermittent jumping called, and how to avoid this? I can understand low fps in high resolution but this looks like a jerky movement and it’s not constant. Does it happen because of drone, or is it settings, editing or uploading?

[digeratimaster]

I just picked up the Mini 4 Pro fly more drone today. I haven't flown it yet. I will have to confirm all of the wind issues by testing its stability. I purchased ND filters, landing legs. I own 2 other drones the Air 2S and the Zoom both I love and needed a super light weight one I that's easy to pack and travel overseas. I'll come back and report about the wind issue. I'm going to go out on a limb and say stabilization have to do with the motors that are being used in propeller blades. I'm sure the Mini 4 is using smaller blades and motor. It's not fair to expect the drone to hold his own in strong winds DUH...

[mdezi]

Great video. Will be purchasing. As a beginner do you recommend I purchase any filters with this for photos and videos?
