@@mysiph .. The Mini 2 is well worth it... It's awesome, much, MUCH better than the Mini 1.. if they ever come out with the Mini 2 / smart controller combo pack, they will sell bunches of these...
My pleasure you have a great channel here, keep up the great work you do! People can learn a lot here, even as an experienced UAV and Helicopter pilot I had learned something too. I look forward to more content. 😎
@@Quadcopterguide The precise strength of Earth's gravity varies depending on location. The nominal "average" value at Earth's surface, known as standard gravity is, by definition, 9.80665 m/s^2. (though this sometimes means the normal equatorial value on Earth is 9.78033 m/s^2 (which is used in physics)) but in Denmark the value of gravity is 9,815 m/s^2, while it in the us can be down to 9,781 m/s^2. (Which is a pretty huge difference) Which means DJI makes sure the DJI mini 2 is max 249 grams in the country with the highest value of gravity. Pretty cool if you ask me 😎
@@Quadcopterguide I read the forum, where owners of mini 2 complained that direct file transfer was not working on the new firmware. Try it. I take my drone month later, just ordered.
I’m sincerely hoping for compatibility with the smart controller! I have both drones and would love just needing the single controller. The smart controller makes for a far quicker/easier set up.
Hey! Great video, I have the 2 pro with smart controller and I can’t wait to get the mini 2! It’s so versatile, especially with the new uk laws. However I have promised myself that I will not get one until DJI give us smart controller compatibility... Hurry up DJI!!!
Hi David, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! Of course it works with Android. Check the link in the video description. DJI has a page where they list all compatible devices. Hope that helps!
That the transfer is Wireless-#5.... was the coolest new thing for me...I used my Legal Cannabis scale, my mini 2 comes in at 234 grams, without the folding legs i ordered...i am gonna Wrap mine for visibility reasons.. Going VFR....LOL
Two things I didn't know before I bought my Mini 2.. 1) the DJI Fly app is not compatible with all smart phones & tablets. 2) I can't fly it near my home because of dumb flight zone restrictions
I would also like smart control as my samsung tablet A8 2019 doesn't fit in the cel phone holder. And also the usb cable from the remote controller to cell / tablet is to short.
Hey there thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! That's a great question. If I need to charge quickly I will use a high rate wallplug on the drone and charge the multi-combo charger seperately. Will work better than daisy-chaining.
A gram is technically not a measure of weight, but of mass. Weights will vary at different altitudes, thus that might explain why your measurements and others will vary. Grams are to be "weighed" on a balance, and in this way the measurement will be consistent. A balance requires a certified "weight" on one side and it will balance when the mass of the other side is equal. But I enjoyed your video.
Hey JP, thanks for taking the time to comment and watch, it is much appreciated! Appreciate you deciding to subscribe to the channel. Would this Mini 2 be your first DJI drone?
@@Quadcopterguide no, I started with a Spark and flew that for a while-hated the battery life, so I sold it to buy an Autel Evo. The mini 2 will be a back up, travel type drone, I think. I wish it had obstacle avoidance sensors, but oh well...it will be here soon! Hope I like it.
Felix - I’m tempted to buy a backup but my Mavic 2 Pro does so well in dealing with the higher, swirling winds at my favorite mountaintop flying site. Hopefully a Mavic 3 will be equally robust. Just not ready to throw dice using such a lightweight aircraft.
Hey John, thanks for tuning in again! I can totally understand what you mean. The Mavic 2 Pro is my go-to when it comes for capturing the highest quality I can. In terms of a backup, maybe the Mavic Air 2 is a bit better suited due to the higher mass? I am hoping we will see a new Mavic 3 in the first half of next year. I guess it's a matter of deciding of how long to potentially wait :D. What do you use your Mavic 2 Pro for mostly?
@@Quadcopterguide Felix - Thanks for the note - I love doing landscape stills (my much needed to be updated website - Wetlandsplendors.com). Never had the skills to do video, and currently, I’m troubled by an issue with my smart controller. Last summer I brushed against a wire in a landing, and the M2P fell about 10 feet. Cracked a forward prop housing, and believed it would fly just fine. I sent it to DJI since I had refresh, and they sent me a brand new M2P. Problem is, I have all these images on the drone/smart controller - but can’t get them out - whereas before, I believe, all I had to do was insert the chip (either from the aircraft or the controller) into a microSD reader/iPad and I was able to download. Any thoughts? Many thanks, and keep up the great work.
I took the body of my Mini 2 and drilled the plastic body full of holes.......it is now 217 grams. It now flies longer and faster. I can now fly for 36 minutes and it is faster by 3 mph.
Haha hey Steve, thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment! Awesome! Would be funny if they drilled a bunch of holes. Need someone to take theirs completely apart and compare side by side.
Been dilling with stuff it's been a while but, I just learned 5 thing I didn't have a clue about! Thanks Felix! hope that's spelled at least you're name correctly!
Thank you for this video, very informative, once it can connect to smart controller, I would definitely purchase. Dont need to roll with two controllers. Didn’t know about the Quick transfer and the different battery size for the Japanese market.
Hey Steven, Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! check out the dji sites, there is a list of compatible devices, www.quadcopterguide.com/djisupport
Why would I want smart controller support on the mini? That is to say, why would I, a person buying a budget drone, want a controller that costs almost twice as much as aforementioned drone?
Hey Gene awesome you took the time to watch and comment! Much appreciated! From someone who doesn’t have a smart controller already I totally see your point. However there are many out there who already have a smart controller and those would love support. One remote to fly then all.
haha hey Antonio, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! The full SD card may weight .00000000001g more :D thanks for letting me know!
What's your thoughts on charging the batteries in the power bank, should I use the dji charger and cable or would I be safe to use my Samsung charger and cable?
Hey there thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Much appreciated! The cable and adapter dont matter that much. Just make sure its rated at least the same as the dji one otherwise it may load slower.
I’ve used active track with this drone, it worked just like my osmo 3. Now it won’t work, did some google searches and apparently this drone “isn’t” capable of doing it. Which I swear it has done it before and now it won’t so did it glitch somehow and let me do it. If so it must just be locked to not let you, anyway to unlock it?
Great vid! Thanks for the shout out Felix! Happy to help. Love the content and the channel! I was surprised at the gps capabilities. Had no idea it was supported on 3 different systems. That makes a lot of sense. Seen another reviewer that resides in Canada and he pointed out he had 4 more satellites connected than he ever has with his mini 1. Didnt know why, but I would assume this could explain it?
Hey Eric 👋🏼! Glad you stopped by :). It would make sense if that was the reason he saw more satellites. Props to him for noticing. Should make it quicker to aquire satellites in a new location when flying for the first time too. Who was it?
I didn't know just the 1, that the charging hub from the mini 2 can charge 5 different batteries, and I didn't know the Japanese use lighter batteries, ty 4 the info
Great info ,,, I’m a newbie to drones,,,, the Mini2 appears to be a very popular choice for many reasons,,,, my question is ,,,,, will I loose control of my unit if other people with the same drone are flying near me ,,, cheers
hey Steve, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! You will not have issues with others flying their drones around you. The technology shifts signals around to ensure the best signal. I'm sure there is some limit but I doubt you will see that in casual flying.
Stop telling everyone how much better it is i still need to sell my og mini lol thanks again for the great information. Finally got rid of the smoke but got replaced by snow really hope to get out and fly soon
238.9 gr. personaly the best of the best since its the mini 2 , not controller support lol , only the phone or tablet ! no? from south side quebec ! take care !
HELP#. Hi Drone Masters!. Can I effectively use the "RTH" on a Mavic Mini-2 using a (WI-FI ONLY iPad), or Do I need to buy the (WI-FI + CELLULAR iPad)?
Wasn’t planning on buying another DJI drone as I already have the platinum which suits my needs....That being said I just ordered the Mini 2 Combo this morning 😂
hey Gabriel thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! Haha.. I know how that goes sometimes. Glad you will be enjoying the Mini 2. I have a feeling you will be using the MPP even less ;).
Hey Felix! First, thanks for the shout out! It's really a pleasure to help the channel. WOW Cool feature about the battery hub ! Thanks for all the infos!
Hey Charlie, thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment! Awesome! Maybe he looks like me? ok ok he was here first lol.. How did you come across the channel?
Hey there awesome you took the time to watch and comment! Much appreciated! Had to look that one up. I betcha the deviation of the scales is larger than the gravity difference around the world which looks to be 0.7%. Whatcha flying these days?
@@Quadcopterguide I'm now flying the mini1 and thinking about upgrading to mini2 or air2. I like the size of mini2 also being less than 250g may be a game changer since the RemoteID is coming soon. on the other hand, I want the active tracking and flat color video on air2. What do you think?
I gotcha. I guess if you can wait and see if the air 2 will get remoteID once all that is final it would make the choice easier. Otherwise if you want flatter color profile you could just get the air 2 now, and live with a bit of risk.
Hey Kris, great question. Will have to test. One reviewer mentioned he got way more satellites on his mini 2 than mini 1. So maybe speed will also come with more satellites.
Hey Titan, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! Exciting times ;). Enjoy and stay tuned for more on the mini 2. Make sure you checkout the dji mini guide linked in the description.
Hey Jasper thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment! Awesome! I know it’s compatible but rumors point both ways. I hope we will see smart controller support on the mini 2!
While I didnt technically KNOW that the drone could use more than just (US) GPS, I did see that it saw more satellites than actually exist in the US system, so I extrapolated that to mean it could use other systems as well. I was wondering what the button did, I keep accidentally pushing it and hearing it click.
I'm bummed out there is no support for the DJI goggles Racing Edition. kind of a deal killer for me. This mini2 would be so cool in high-def goggles. Especially with the ocusync 2.0.
Hey Scott, thanks for tuning in! Who knows maybe they will bring support later. But the Mini 2 being the beginner quad, I don't see that as much of a selling point so maybe they won't do it.
@@Quadcopterguide The mavic Air 2 is not a beginner quad I think it's more DJI is phasing out DJI goggles in general because of connection issues and glitches. About a week ago I lost my mavic Pro Platinum I suspect it was because of the goggles. I reloaded the firmware in the goggles and everything is been working great since then. I guess we'll see when they release the mavic 3 Pro.
@@scotthines5834 hey just to clarify i never said the mavic air 2 is a beginner quad.. the mini 2 is ;). But I hear rumors of a new FPV goggle coming out, maybe just the fpv quad.. guess we will see if the camera drone product line will be supported or not.
@@Quadcopterguide I guess I inferred from your message that you thought that because the mini2 was a beginner quad it would not be supported by the goggles.
@@Quadcopterguide oh and I guess so I just realized that I lost my Platinum because I flew at 40 miles an hour into a no-fly zone and it auto- landed into the Columbia River. Bummer..
I actually don't own a drone but I might get the air 2s this fall anyways the first note is that the dji rcn1 is compatible with the mini 2 air 2 and air 2s and mavic 3 but THE FIRMWARE IS NOT THE SAME this means that you NEED TO UPGRADE YOUR MINI 2 CONTROLLER TO WORK ON THE MAVIC 3 OR AIR 2S although it's the same firmware used for mini 2 and mavic air 2 that is because the mini 2 and mavic air 2 uses ocusync 2.0 whereas the air 2s uses ocusync 3.0 and mavic uses O3+ THERE IS ONE EXCLUSIVE FEATURE ONLY IN THE MINI 2 THAT WHILE YOUR TAKING OFF YOU CAN ARM THE MOTORS BY PUSHING IN THE RC STICKS AND THROWING UP YOUR DRONE
I have both MM and the Mini 2 but dont have a scale ,but from the information i got the MM battery in the Mini 1 should be around 251g to 253g, if anyone knows ,let us no
i think i did enough research before bying this drone, because i knew every single one of those five things and didnt even buy it yet xD still waiting for mini 3 thoguh and as its now getting colder i think a little wait cant be hurtful
hey there thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! The dji mini 2 comes in at well under 250 grams so in most countries it does not have to be registered. Make sure you check with your countries air authority.
238gr here in München incl a very heavy Extreme pro 128GB SD card.... :-) Didn’t know the japanese battery Didn’t know about the QuickTransfer function ...and I’m just realizing how hard it is to find a flyable spot here in Bavaria....
I have Two Mini 2's. With the 6 grams of Landing Gear, Both Mini 2's come in at 239 grams. With Battery and SD card. And I have a Digital Gem Scale and it was calibrated last year. So yeah...I can STILL add filters and be under 250...the Only issue is the best I get is 1080@50fps. After I did the first Firmware Update on Mini 2.1, it killed my first Mini 2. So I went and got another one just to make sure I'm not an idiot since I've been doing this rc thing for 50 years...and yeah, it's Both Mini 2's. Some programmer sitting in a dark cube will get his ass chewed out and get on a fix for Android. No biggie. I need two because I fly day and night and tend to go through 6-8 batteries at a time. 25 minutes in Wind. Great Drones. I have a monster that carries 3lbs. of very expensive stuff...so I need the Mini 2's for FUN and they are perfect. If you wreck this thing then don't ride a bike either. I'm addicted to them for sure....
I’ll be honest, i feel like the old Mavic Mini 1 hub and batteries charge faster than the new Mavic mini. Unless it has to go through a few cycles first.
Hey Beloved Lion awesome you took the time to watch and comment! Much appreciated! Interesting. I haven’t timed this. Would be surprising though. Historically you can charge lipo faster than li ion. But who knows how dji does their thing in this case.
Don't know why DJI doesn't have all batteries in the charging hub charge at the same time. Just need a higher wattage charging block. Of course that's their history.
Hey Big Jim, awesome you took the time to watch and comment! Much appreciated! I have wondered that myself, I assume it’s so they can just use a regular usb power adapter and not have to come up with a 60-80w MacBook style adapter. Maybe the circuitry in the hubs would need a major change as well. We can only speculate.
Which of those things were new to you about the DJI Mini 2? Let me know:
Getting mine on Wednesday hopefully! So excited, it will be my first drone!
Hey Julius thanks for tuning in again! The excitement :). Enjoy man!

HELP#.
Hi Drone Masters!.
Can I effectively use the "RTH" on a Mavic Mini-2 using a (WI-FI ONLY iPad), or Do I need to buy the (WI-FI + CELLULAR iPad)?
thx for watching!
240g with SD card and battery. UK spec!
Hey Rob, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! Very good weight!
DJI Mini 2 (w/card and battery and props): 236g on an Oxo kitchen scale.
thx for watching!
My Tello batteries have almost the same capacity as the Japanese market version of the batteries for the Mini 2. 13 to 15 minutes of flight time.
thx for watching!
Good video.
How about the fact that it does NOT work with the DJI flight simulator.
That's good info to put out as well don't ya think?
thx for watching!
Nice! Thanks
hey Joao thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated!
Thanks for the info! Enjoyed the video.
Hey Lady Angler, thanks for tuning in again! Nice to see you in the comments, appreciate your kind words.
That new weights impressive. Thanks for the info, Felix 👍
No problem thanks for being here!
It would be nice if we could use the DJI goggles
Hey Micah, I suppose if/when we get Smart Controller support, the goggles will work no matter what :). Which goggles do you have?
Wasn’t planning on buying another DJI drone as I already have the platinum which suits my needs....That being said I just ordered the Mini 2 Combo this morning 😂
hey Gabriel thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! Haha.. I know how that goes sometimes. Glad you will be enjoying the Mini 2. I have a feeling you will be using the MPP even less ;).
Hey Felix! First, thanks for the shout out! It's really a pleasure to help the channel. WOW Cool feature about the battery hub ! Thanks for all the infos!
Hey Mychelle-Anne :). I was hoping you would see this one haha. The honor is all mine. When is yours arriving?
@@Quadcopterguide Arriving on the 18th by the end of day!!! Yayyyyyyy haha
Niiiice! Where did it ship from?
@@Quadcopterguide looks like SHENZHEN - CHINA MAINLAND sorry for the caps I copied and pasted from shipping info lol
Haha no worries. Very cool. Sounds like it will be there before you know it.
Got mine yesterday
very cool! I will maiden mine tomorrow!
Just stumbled across your channel. Great stuff! Why do you look like Jason Sudeikis??
Hey Charlie, thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment! Awesome! Maybe he looks like me? ok ok he was here first lol.. How did you come across the channel?
@@Quadcopterguide I been looking at mini 2 videos because I'm prepping to buy one. Then Mr. Sudeikis showed up in my stream!
I have DJI mini 2 with battery and sd card. weight of 240 grams
thx for watching!
It also depends on where you weigh it, since the gravity constant isn't the same everywhere on earth.
Hey there awesome you took the time to watch and comment! Much appreciated! Had to look that one up. I betcha the deviation of the scales is larger than the gravity difference around the world which looks to be 0.7%. Whatcha flying these days?
@@Quadcopterguide I'm now flying the mini1 and thinking about upgrading to mini2 or air2. I like the size of mini2 also being less than 250g may be a game changer since the RemoteID is coming soon. on the other hand, I want the active tracking and flat color video on air2. What do you think?
I gotcha. I guess if you can wait and see if the air 2 will get remoteID once all that is final it would make the choice easier. Otherwise if you want flatter color profile you could just get the air 2 now, and live with a bit of risk.
Mmm, do the regulations specify mass or weight??
Ummm.. so.... where does cocaine weigh less.. you know theoretically
Interesting that they added the EU system. Do you know if the Mini 2 acquires satellites any faster than the Air 2?
Hey Kris, great question. Will have to test. One reviewer mentioned he got way more satellites on his mini 2 than mini 1. So maybe speed will also come with more satellites.
Great vid bro, im getting mine on wednesday cant wait😎🔥
Hey Titan, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! Exciting times ;). Enjoy and stay tuned for more on the mini 2. Make sure you checkout the dji mini guide linked in the description.
mine is 240g with battery and mini sd card!
thx for watching!
Smart controller will come... as they promised at release it will work with ANY Ocusync 2.0 system
Hey Jasper thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment! Awesome! I know it’s compatible but rumors point both ways. I hope we will see smart controller support on the mini 2!
Smart controller yes please 🙏🙏🙏
awesome you took the time to watch and comment! Much appreciated! I hope we will get support for the smart controller!
While I didnt technically KNOW that the drone could use more than just (US) GPS, I did see that it saw more satellites than actually exist in the US system, so I extrapolated that to mean it could use other systems as well.
I was wondering what the button did, I keep accidentally pushing it and hearing it click.
Hey Nate thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated!
My Mini 2 weights 240g with the battery and a 32gb SD Card. Strange, isn't it?
Could be a difference in the scales. thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Much appreciated!
I'm bummed out there is no support for the DJI goggles Racing Edition. kind of a deal killer for me. This mini2 would be so cool in high-def goggles. Especially with the ocusync 2.0.
Hey Scott, thanks for tuning in! Who knows maybe they will bring support later. But the Mini 2 being the beginner quad, I don't see that as much of a selling point so maybe they won't do it.
@@Quadcopterguide The mavic Air 2 is not a beginner quad I think it's more DJI is phasing out DJI goggles in general because of connection issues and glitches. About a week ago I lost my mavic Pro Platinum I suspect it was because of the goggles. I reloaded the firmware in the goggles and everything is been working great since then. I guess we'll see when they release the mavic 3 Pro.
@@scotthines5834 hey just to clarify i never said the mavic air 2 is a beginner quad.. the mini 2 is ;). But I hear rumors of a new FPV goggle coming out, maybe just the fpv quad.. guess we will see if the camera drone product line will be supported or not.
@@Quadcopterguide
I guess I inferred from your message that you thought that because the mini2 was a beginner quad it would not be supported by the goggles.
@@Quadcopterguide
oh and I guess so I just realized that I lost my Platinum because I flew at 40 miles an hour into a no-fly zone and it auto- landed into the Columbia River. Bummer..
Mine weighed in at 244g with battery & SD card.
thx for watching!
I actually don't own a drone but I might get the air 2s this fall anyways the first note is that the dji rcn1 is compatible with the mini 2 air 2 and air 2s and mavic 3 but THE FIRMWARE IS NOT THE SAME this means that you NEED TO UPGRADE YOUR MINI 2 CONTROLLER TO WORK ON THE MAVIC 3 OR AIR 2S although it's the same firmware used for mini 2 and mavic air 2 that is because the mini 2 and mavic air 2 uses ocusync 2.0 whereas the air 2s uses ocusync 3.0 and mavic uses O3+
THERE IS ONE EXCLUSIVE FEATURE ONLY IN THE MINI 2 THAT WHILE YOUR TAKING OFF YOU CAN ARM THE MOTORS BY PUSHING IN THE RC STICKS AND THROWING UP YOUR DRONE
thanks for stopping by!
@@Quadcopterguide thank you for reading this long useless comment 😂
Well, I didn't know that your drone must be lighter than 200g in Japan. Geez
that's extra light!
I have both MM and the Mini 2 but dont have a scale ,but from the information i got the MM battery in the Mini 1 should be around 251g to 253g, if anyone knows ,let us no
hey Rick thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. Much appreciated!
i think i did enough research before bying this drone, because i knew every single one of those five things and didnt even buy it yet xD
still waiting for mini 3 thoguh and as its now getting colder i think a little wait cant be hurtful
thx for watching!
It is 242g with the gimbal cover on.......237g when the cover is removed....so DJI must have weighed the drone with the gimbal cover on. :)
hey Ken awesome you took the time to watch and comment! Much appreciated! 237 is crazy for the mini 2.
So you don’t have to register the mavic mini 2?
hey there thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! The dji mini 2 comes in at well under 250 grams so in most countries it does not have to be registered. Make sure you check with your countries air authority.
Where on the app can you change what it does when you loose signal, ie.. hover, RTH ...
In camera view, top right settings (three dot icon) -> safety -> advanced safety settings (last entry on the list) -> "signal lost"
Hey Maximilian, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated. Also thanks for chiming in with the help here. Awesome!
Hey Ken, thanks for tuning in again! I read that there are differences between android and iOS, see if Maximilian's steps work for ya.
238gr here in München incl a very heavy Extreme pro 128GB SD card.... :-)
Didn’t know the japanese battery
Didn’t know about the QuickTransfer function
...and I’m just realizing how hard it is to find a flyable spot here in Bavaria....
Hey Jo awesome you took the time to watch and comment! Much appreciated! I like the DFS Drohnen App. Check it out. Servus!
Erstmal feld und dann in die alpen wasserfälle filmen
I have Two Mini 2's. With the 6 grams of Landing Gear, Both Mini 2's come in at 239 grams. With Battery and SD card. And I have a Digital Gem Scale and it was calibrated last year. So yeah...I can STILL add filters and be under 250...the Only issue is the best I get is 1080@50fps. After I did the first Firmware Update on Mini 2.1, it killed my first Mini 2. So I went and got another one just to make sure I'm not an idiot since I've been doing this rc thing for 50 years...and yeah, it's Both Mini 2's. Some programmer sitting in a dark cube will get his ass chewed out and get on a fix for Android. No biggie. I need two because I fly day and night and tend to go through 6-8 batteries at a time. 25 minutes in Wind. Great Drones. I have a monster that carries 3lbs. of very expensive stuff...so I need the Mini 2's for FUN and they are perfect. If you wreck this thing then don't ride a bike either. I'm addicted to them for sure....
Oh, I'm in California and my batteries are 2250mAh...
+1 Want smart controller support!
awesome you took the time to watch and comment! Much appreciated!
I have 2 DJI Mini2 Drones - one weighs 236g and the other is 237g
Hey Chris thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! Wow how come you have 2?
RTH accuracy has improved over the Mini 2
Hey Tony awesome you took the time to watch and comment! Much appreciated! Thanks for your feedback. What else have you noticed?
I'm looking to buy a drone.. I shot music videos witch one would you recommend between mini se r the mini 2?
the latest minis are nice
I’ll be honest, i feel like the old Mavic Mini 1 hub and batteries charge faster than the new Mavic mini. Unless it has to go through a few cycles first.
Hey Beloved Lion awesome you took the time to watch and comment! Much appreciated! Interesting. I haven’t timed this. Would be surprising though. Historically you can charge lipo faster than li ion. But who knows how dji does their thing in this case.
I agree
Didn't know you live in Bayern. We are on the total other side :)
Hey Danny, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! Where are you located?
Well Im in-pressed. Thanks
thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Much appreciated!
237g incl sd card and battery 😎👍
Hey Kenneth, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It is much appreciated! Very cool!
Wow on wireless transfer learned that!
hey mike thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment! Awesome!
@@Quadcopterguide that's cool. thanks very much for your help 💯
I used the scales in the lab at work. It was 237.00 grams
Very cool thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment! Awesome! 237g seems to be the target.
Don't know why DJI doesn't have all batteries in the charging hub charge at the same time. Just need a higher wattage charging block. Of course that's their history.
Hey Big Jim, awesome you took the time to watch and comment! Much appreciated! I have wondered that myself, I assume it’s so they can just use a regular usb power adapter and not have to come up with a 60-80w MacBook style adapter. Maybe the circuitry in the hubs would need a major change as well. We can only speculate.
