@area57drone74 2 года назад

Thanks for another great video! As the owner of the original Mavic Mini, I feel DJI has "neutered" the Mini 1 since it was introduced. Myself and others online have noticed that with firmware updates that the Mini 1 doesn't handle as much wind anymore. I used to be able to put it up in some pretty strong wind before any alerts would pop up on the screen and it handled fine. Now it doesn't seem to take much wind for the warnings to pop up and doesn't seem as stable as it used to be.

@rogerthat9174 2 года назад

Agree...... we dish out the big money 💰. BUT the almighty Dji pulls all the strings.....

@CAPTAINDRONE798 2 года назад

Fly RC.... I'll let you in on a DJI Secret. DJI places those wind warnings so that they are recorded in the telemetry for the sole reason that if you damage your drone and blame it on the drone itself, DJI will tell you that you were flying in unsafe wind and probably deny your claim for free repairs or replacement... unless of course you have their insurance. With that said, there is no change to how the MINI 1 handles the wind, but now the drone is more sensitive to wind in the prompts it provides back to you.

@photoklarno Год назад

LiPo and Li-Ion use the same battery chemistry, just packaged differently. With Li-Ion the electrolyte is inside a metal cell, while for LiPo the electrolyte is inside a plastic membrane (that’s the “polymer” part.) The plastic membrane allows for more irregular and prismatic battery shapes, offering lighter weight and more efficient use of volume, but this is at the expense of energy density, lifespan, durability, and complexity of replacement. EVs use Li-Ion while phones use LiPo.

Just bought my own Mini SE and, no carrying case, but the flights I've done so far have been great! It's quiet, the range is AMAZING, and I'm glad it's under the 250 gram rule. I had to take a local UAV safety test but it was free and only lasted 20 questions. This doesn't have a place if your looking at it from a pro user ownership perspective, but if you're a first time owner it's is just perfect!

@matthewgleeson2121 2 года назад

Great video Steve! I liked how you included mention of the Spark as the genesis of this class of drones. As I own a Mini 2 (and a Spark), I'll pass on the SE, however, I'm very impressed by its specs and I've been recomending it to newbies. It's certainly worth paying what is just a little bit more for the SE over any budget drone.

@s1dew1nd3r4 2 года назад

How does the spark compare to say the mini-2?

@matthewgleeson2121 2 года назад

@@s1dew1nd3r4 It doesn't! The Mini 2 is the newer technology and so is superior in terms of flight, radio transmission and camera characteristics. This is a great question though and the Spark was a very impressive piece of kit in its day - and still is an impressive piece of kit. Yes the Spark has the obsticle avoidance and active track features that the Mini lacks, but I use a Air 2 now for these anyway. The Spark will complete most missions acceptably. I've had it out over the past week and the only issues have really been with heavy winds where it gets blow off course and terrible transmission from the drone to my remote control/phone display, where it can become hard to see what you're doing. Despite this, it's still a lot of fun to fly!

Hi Captain, love your videos. You are always very thorough and easy to understand! Can you recommend a good place to buy extra batteries for the Mini SE ? The one I'm looking at on amazon is $299 but it only comes with 1 battery. Your package came with 3. Better deal somewhere else for the 3 battery kit? Is there any reason to pick the mini 2 over this one outside of 4K capability? (The mini SE is half the price). Thanks!

@CAPTAINDRONE798 2 года назад

People who are new to drones would not notice a difference between the SE or Mini 2. Range is what you get with the Mini 2. As for more batteries, I think you are stuck with the DJI STORE or do like me and order from CANADA.

I love the OG mini as it’s lithium iron batteries stay charged for weeks unlike the lipos which self discharge after only a few days. Still imo they are great drones,you can’t go wrong with any of them 👍🏻🙏

@Chimera_Photography 2 года назад

They only self discharge to 75 percent after a week. Also, Li-ion batteries? Are supposed to be stored with a charge between 30-50 percent. Soo, yeah. You’re mistreating your batteries. That’s why the new ones self discharge, because people don’t know how to treat batteries.

@bikerforever68 2 года назад

@@Chimera_Photography No li-on doesn’t discharge like li-po when in storage. The fundamental point here is that li-po batteries are more volatile and when incorrectly stored & mistreated can catch fire unlike li-on batteries where this won’t happen due to the chemical structure of the cells,plus the low cost of batteries means you can leave them charged for long periods of time without safety issues so is a perfect grab n go drone unlike lipos where you need to be a pre-Meditative flyer and plan when you need to fly. My knowledge of batteries comes from flying 6ch collective pitch helicopters for over 15 years during which I manually discharged to the correct storage levels on balance chargers and obviously keeping them in fire proof bags/metal boxes.But yes some people don’t understand how batteries work or how to use them probably. So the self discharge feature is essential especially for newbies who don’t understand. Happy flying

On instinct I had random connect drop connect drop... gone lost connect. I was giving up. It had been 25 mind. And it showed up way above altitude it should be. Waited as it flew past, it was lost. As it came down I managed to connect. And brought it down with zero on the battery. Had flown many times there. First that happend. So be aware, hints of bad connection,

Love your videos, super informative!! Joined a local drone club first meetup is Friday night. Never would have gotten into it if it were not for your thorough reviews.

Lets say, something that we have to fix. Is there available spareparts from DJI? Or we had to another store?

@CAPTAINDRONE798 2 года назад

Yes, DJI has plenty of spare parts, but they want you to send it in to your local DJI authorized repair shop.

I once was flying sideways with mavic air 2, and I flew into a tree. I was able to find a new arm on Amazon for 40 usd.

I am still holding out for V2 Goggle support. Need Mini 3, under 250g, for this holiday season with Goggle support. Would sell like hot cakes! Hands down would give DJI a huge advantage in a highly competitive field. If they don’t, i fear it will be no different then all the others in this category.

@rogerthat9174 2 года назад

Highly competitive..????

@cognetic 2 года назад

@@rogerthat9174 Correct. I just counted 10 different models alone in Captain Drone's video list (in the past few months). Just click his videos and scroll through. He and all other RU-vid influencers are all making comments about how this 249g market is becoming crazy crowded, with all similar specs, cheaper pricing, better specs, etc. Hence DJI releasing the DJI Mini SE, in what I believe is an attempt to compete with the cheaper competition, offering same or better specs. Just watch Captain Drones last few videos on the other models (or any others). It will explain all.

@rogerthat9174 2 года назад

Brian Flores I have seen his and other videos..unfortunately I have to disagree with you.. I am not a Dji fanboy.but Dji does not have to be concerned about the competition.... for a long while......✌️.

@cognetic 2 года назад

@@rogerthat9174 can't argue that. But the release of the SE, does show DJI is at least a little nervous IMHO. 😜

@busterhoodstar4447 2 года назад

@@rogerthat9174 sorry, I'll have to disagree with you on that. There's a little thing called geofencing that Dji loves to utilize and restrict drone flights. The only model that can be unlocked, is the original Mavic Pro. Otherwise, best spend your money on a company that leaves the responsibility of flight to the user. The Autel Evo 1 and 2 are good examples of getting the best features for the dollar without controlling where you want to fly.

very good review! i like that you compare the drone to similar models so i know which ones is right for me (unlike other reviewers who only take in mind the drone they are reviewing) subscribed, and now i know where to come for drone reviews!

@CAPTAINDRONE798 2 года назад

Thank you and welcome to the channel.

Really 381.00 dollar with that price, I prefer the Hubsan ZINO pro plus, I'm not compare two this drone , but still much better then this one. What do you think about it? Nice video by the way.👌

@dogswhistlesharam9029 2 года назад

I often wonder the mini SE came about due to the current chip shortage affecting the mini 2. (It has different video related chips than the mini 1) It also maximises on the tooling costs for the plastics for the mini 1’s remote Plus it means DJI can sell more product..🤔

@goodtime378 Год назад

I really want this drone i am saving up for it is it a good invest ment? and is it fun to use?

@emanuelgalvez3619 Год назад

There is a newer model of this drone that can do a bit more, it’s called the DJI Mini 2 SE and I recommend that you get the new one since it has a few better features.
