DJI Mini 2 SE Fly More Combo, Mini Drone with 10km Video Transmission, 3 Batteries for 93 Mins Max Flight Time, Under 249 g, QHD Video, Auto Return to Home, QuickShots, Drone with Camera for Beginners

The DJI Mini 2 SE is an excellent entry-level drone with impressive features for its size. It’s lightweight, easy to fly, and has a solid 2.7K camera that captures sharp photos and smooth videos. The 31-minute flight time and reliable OcuSync 2.0 transmission provide a stable flying experience, even at longer distances.I love how beginner-friendly it is, with smart features like QuickShots and automatic return-to-home for added safety. The compact design makes it perfect for travel, and the battery life is surprisingly good. For anyone looking for an affordable yet high-quality drone, the Mini 2 SE is a fantastic choice!

This drone works as it says and the company that sells it is phenomenal! Of course this is an entry level drone so there are a few things about it that let it down a bit, but for the price I have NO complaints. For example, since the drone is so small and light, if there is a medium amount of wind it tells you to bring it back and you can tell it starts shaking a lot. However, even on cloudy days, it is still very stable with some wind! The picture and video quality is phenomenal, especially again for the price. I found myself filming the highway by where I live, something so mundane, and yet the drone and some beginner skills made it look almost like a movie scene. As for the safety of this drone, it is one of the safest and most intuitive experiences I've ever had. The instructions in the box help you set everything up, and the app helps you with everything before, during, and after flying! Obviously this thing has propellers that spin God knows how fast, so be careful getting it close to yourself, other people, and other things, but that's just a given. My first flight didn't go so well as it was my first drone flight ever, not the drone's fault at all, but after that it was slow but smooth progress into being confident with it. Would definitely recommend.

I concur that DJI makes great drones at many price points, and for many skill levels. Every one of the dozens of articles I read before purchase had DJI at the top of the recommended list. My only problem was deciding which drone to buy as a novice. I didn’t want to buy a >$1K package and have the drone fly off into the sunset, never to be seen again, on my first flight. So, I split the difference on risk vs. cost/performance. I bought a DJI, but not the newest model. The better, but still very similar, model 4 would have cost more than twice as much for a similar package as this model 2.I’m happy to report that this drone is a great choice for adult beginners. It does not have the collision avoidance or 4k camera of the newest model, but it is essentially the same for basic setup and flight control and its camera performance is adequate. It really is a very nice drone, and I’m very happy I bought the DJI. It is relatively easy to set up and very easy to learn to fly. I really like the Mini2 SE and I’m glad I bought it.One thing I didn’t know about drones before researching is that all drones above 250 grams must be registered with the FAA, and some drones must initialize a flight approval each time they are used. So, if you buy a drone that weighs over 250 grams, be sure you understand what you are buying. It’s one thing to have to pay $5 and register once online, it’s another to have to be within cellphone signal range to initialize flight. With the latter type you could be miles into a hike and not be able to use your drone at all due to no cell signal for flight authorization. The DJI Mini 2 SE is not either of those.Two things you will need, which are not included in this kit, are a charger plug adapter and a mini SD type memory card. It’s absolutely ridiculous that a $500 package, that includes everything else, does not include the plug adapter. DJI’s >$1K packages don’t either. You need an 18 Watt or greater plug, such as the newer Apple devices use. Yes, most of us already have one, but that’s not the point. DJI should just charge $5 more and include one in the kit! The memory card isn’t technically necessary but the images and video will be much higher quality if you use one. The DJI Mini 2 SE supports up to a 256 gigabyte card. A high quality name brand card is only ~$25 and a 128 gigabyte is half that. If DJI had included the SD card and charger plug, they would have only had to increase the price of this package by less than $20, and the customer would not have to scramble around trying to source missing pieces of the appropriate parameters. Another issue is the formatting of the SD card… It needs to be formatted in the drone itself but I never found any mention of this in DJI’s instructions. Query YouTube for a quick tutorial, it’s less than a 30 second process once someone walks you through the appropriate menus on the controller app.In summary, I have no real complaints just suggestions, this is a great drone made by the leader in this market segment. It’s high quality, easy to fly and many of the parts are interchangeable with prior and current models. Its basic flight capability is very comparable to the more expensive DJI models, but it is edged out by them on camera resolution and advanced features like object avoidance, but it costs significantly less. If price is not a concern, I’d recommend the Mini 4 unconditionally, it is better. However, the Mini 2 is also an excellent choice and I’m glad I chose it for my first drone. I may upgrade at some point in a few years, once I have a lot more experience, but I’m completely satisfied with this drone and would recommend it or buy it again in the same circumstances.

The media could not be loaded. Pros: Amazing camera, automatic shots programmed in, simple gallery system, all program file formats supported, pretty great battery life, fun.Cons: I'm not sure how other drones do with elevation and cold, but this one seemed to struggle at 12.5k feet. It still managed to hold for awhile, but I kept this drone fairly low (in case it fell.) when I was traveling over passes in Colorado.Also, I was missing parts, and had one dud battery when I opened it, but was given a brand new battrry pack from DJI, so all was forgiven.Overall: Great drone for someone getting into it. Great price, Definitely watch the tutorials, as it had great information, and tips to fly. Can't say enough great things.
