I just bought this drone as a beginner and was nervous about whether I would enjoy flying it. The price point seemed perfect for testing the waters. Let me tell you, I love it! I'm still learning and getting comfortable with it, researching and being extra careful. Yesterday, I flew the furthest I have so far. As the battery began to die, the drone automatically went into return-to-home mode and made it back with 10% battery left. I was nervous because it looked like the battery was depleting fast. I already know I'll upgrade in the future, but for now, I'm just enjoying the experience and learning. Worth every penny. I will say, I had alittle bit of trouble with the DJI fly app, as it it not in the android store, only for apple. They have it to download for Android on their website. I have the Samsung s24ultra.
@@BikrameshSarkar Honestly, I'm not sure. It's something I should've paid more attention to. It wasn't too far, but it was my furthest. I flew it over water to a lighthouse. I have the DJI Mini 4 Pro now, so if I get the chance, I'll fly it to the same spot and measure the distance in meters.
@nathanieltillman2355 Five months later, and now I have a DJI Mini 4 Pro! I gave my Mini 4K to my brother. If you're on a budget, the 4K is absolutely worth it. If you're on the fence like I was about buying a drone, the 4K is a great entry point. That said, in hindsight, I regret not saving up and getting the DJI Mini 4 Pro from the start. Now, I'm even considering taking the Part 107 license exam so I can buy something bigger, like the Mavic 3. In short, the Mini 4K is an awesome beginner drone-affordable, great quality, and perfect for figuring out if flying drones is for you.
@@BlueDroneBlues Yes, it's a machine that has most of what you can wish for. Especially for recon / SAR type of work. But it's HUGE and noisy compared to the Mavic 2 EA - with which I have sort of a love-hate relationship... 😅 The thermal imagery from the M2EA is the same quality as the M30T but it's severely lacking in firmware development and functionality. Form factor and speed of deployment makes me keep it Now let me wish for a Mini 2T. 👍😅
I have used Autel drones for years and my older one, I'm not able to get battery replacement which really ticks me off. I'm hoping this will take its place and maybe the batteries will stay around for a few years for this unit. Thank you so much for the video, very informative. JC.
Would be nice if DJI or someone would make strobe lights built into the drone. On top and bottom for us lets say older drone flyers to help us see the drone better and not loose VLOS. I think it is possible to put built in strobe light on the rear of the batter with a small push button to turn it on and off. This would also help with VLOS.
Hey all. Well, I couldn't resist. I registered with Drone Pilot Ground School, paid $239, (hundred dollar discount through today. Whew..), and I'm goin' back to school. 😢
Ya had me paused for a second when I saw the Scandinavian Heritage pop up as the example video! Grew up down the street from it and moving back soon. Just ordered this model for checking crops at the farm.
My first drone was a Mavic Pro 1 when it came out. It was a good unit, and still is, but I upgraded to the Mini 4 Pro. Both drones hit the sweet spot for price/performance when they were released. Hopefully I’ll have the Mini 4 Pro for 8 more years too!
@ I’m sure the Mini 4K is a good unit. It just won’t have the more advanced features of the Mini 4 Pro. I do love having the software and screen built into the controller but I do miss not using my iPad mini for a larger screen. The Mini 4 Pro has been great, but I found t won’t buck wind as well as the larger Mavic 1. I don’t have any issues with GPS lock and stability issues I sometimes had with the Mavic. Been a great unit!
As a pilot for many years I could never get used to pushing forward on the little "stick" to go up and pulling back to go down. Opposite of what you do in a real plane! I asked DJI to make a software option where a user could change/reverse the up/down but never happened. Does the software in the DJI Mini 4K allow you to do that?
I just Got this drone amazing , if you want to get into the hobby i started with dji phantom 3 adv then fpv freestyle drones now the mini 4k i Don't feel like it as good as the phantom 3 adv but much easier than freestyle drone very easy end safe to fly
My Mini 2 which is my first drone I bought from Costco 4 years ago has 4K at 30fps. Which is great. This is just the Mini 2 in the same wrapper which is good at a lower price. Would be a huge bonus for some of us that need RID in a small package. Mini 2 opened the door to drones for me 4 years ago like I am sure it did for so many others that brought so many of us into the hobby! I will always keep my little Mini 2 close by.
Hi everyone, I’m looking to buy my first drone and have two offers to consider: the DJI Mini 3 for 369 EUR or the new DJI Mini 4K for 299 EUR. What are your thoughts? Is it worth spending an extra 70 EUR for the DJI Mini 3? Thanks for your advice!
I would be a first time drone owner, I am a photographer and would like to get some unusual images while out using my cameras. What about the Neo as a first time drone user?
2:25 Share drone video on ALL social media, except on TH-cam, right? With the possibility of monetization (even if that’s not the intention of the drone pilot), I thought it’s commercial to post drone footages on TH-cam.
The 44809 exception is for "recreational purposes" only. If you are only flying and posting video for recreational purposes, you can post it wherever you'd like. The challenge comes when you post it to a platform that pays you for that posting. If you have a personal youtube channel that is just a video platform for you to share with friends, that's fine. Anything else (for your church, to promote your business or your kid's school/team/etc) is not recreational. If you're literally only posting it for your friends and family to enjoy, that's recreational use.
I’m a mapper, typically I use a M3E and Pix4D. Just wondering, if I want to throw a mini in the mix for hard to reach places or maybe indoors, what mini would you recommend? I don’t think price really matters much at this point.
Good video. Thanks for the info. What’s your thoughts about purchasing the Assurion insurance when purchasing on Amazon? Thanks for your time and reply! 😎🙏🏼
I recently purchased the Mini 4K base package, but in hindsight wish I would have purchased the Fly More combo. Which batteries should I be searching for to purchase? Are the Mini 4K batteries different or better than previous Mini batteries? I have a similar question about the recharger. Basically I'm trying to buy the fly more package without the drone and controller lol. Thanks for the help
Love the way you catch your drones. I’m afraid to shut the motors off that way by flipping it. Could damage the gimbal with G force. Like always love your videos.
Hi. This drone have the quick transfer feature? I’m interested in buying it as my first drone but I want the possibility to transfer my videos and photos to my phone to share directo to social media. Don’t want to always go to my computer, specially when I’m traveling. Thanks for your content 👍🏻
You speak highly of both the Mini 4K and Mini 3 as beginner drones (we're talking absolute beginner here). Are these still valid choices for 2025? What is your recommendation for a beginner drone this year ear?
But I don't use a SD card in my mini mavic and everything is record on the gallery of my phone, so 🤷 I don't think that the SD card os needed at all times ?
are you allowed to say DJI Mini 2 in this video? seems all the early reviewers are pretending that this drone wasn't released already 3 years ago under the name DJI Mini 2
Hi Russ, if I understand correctly, we have to purchase the SD card to get 4K videos, can you recommend what card, and how to transfer videos to a computer? Please? Thanks, Rich
Will the RC or RC2 “I think those are the ones with built in screens” controllers work with this drone. Also what happens if you get a call while using the remote it comes with.
Would you still buy that drone today? I bought a holy Stone 720 r that I was very dissatisfied with and will be returning and I'd really like to get something awesome like this little guy but I'm a little worried about the ban?
i just bought this drone 3 weeks ago but im scared to use because theres alot of regulations so my my question is do we need to take a trust exam at this drone?? i read on website it said all drone owners need to take a trust exam
What is its behavior with respect to RID broadcast? Is it like the Mini 4 pro and Mini 3 where with the sub 250 batteries it does not broadcast rid, or is it like the the mini 3 pro where it always broadcasts rid? You state that if you want to use it for commercial purposes you need to register it, true, but then it needs to broadcast rid, so either you need to add a module at that point or, it broadcasts rid (which for many of us is undesirable) as a sub250 drone. I suspect this drone does not broadcast rid, but interested in confirmation.
I would assume there is no RID capabilities on this drone. If you need them, you'll need to add a module, like you do with the Mini 3/4 Pro using the sub-250 batteries. Since there is no concept of extended-flight battery for this airframe, there's no way to signal the drone to switch to broadcasting RID.
Just picked up thje mini 3 fly more combo for 499, kinda hard to pass up since it has a better camera and several possible upgrades the mini 4k doesnt have
They've pushed 5 versions of the mini 2....wow. they won't ever end that production line. I remember qhen the minor came out I grabbed 1 and I felt amazing. Now they r known as the throwaway drone and to me alot like a toy. Anyways what's that Chinese looking building called?
If I’m not mistaken if you fly for commercial purposes the drone needs to be registered and the pilot needs part 107 certification regardless of the weight of the drone.
I see they got rid of the 5.8 Ghz radio due to the mini 2 debacle with the firmware burning out the 5.8 Ghz radio for folks!!! This is clearly a mini 2 in my mind with this removal.... lol I bought one because it is still awesome. Just wish they'd fix the firmware on the mini 2 to remove it as well.
Thanks for the video. As for beginers side, excelent drone. Mine was Mini 2 and it's incredible. As a DJI user with Mini 2 and Air 3, one question rise for me. Why this unit? Only because of 4k? There is no sense, for me, the road of new products DJI are launching does not have any sense. if we take a look for Mini series: Mini, Mini Se, Mini 2, Mini 2 SE, Mini 4K, 5 models of the same drone with only difference of the front light, or the camera, and of course, Mini 3, Mini 4, Air 2, what next, Air 3S, Pro, Cine, Tango, .......... whatever they name it. By the way, excellent catch of drone🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just an observation, wouldn't new drone enthusiasts benefit from collision protection? Isn't that the one thing that new drone pilots are worried about? but hey, if they get the DJI Cover plan or alternative insurances then they are good. However this looks a fun drone, and thank for the great video
I just bought my first drone. I have tried several times to just get it in the air and hover. Is there a best video for real basic pointers? It’s a black falcon drone? Once I learn to fly I plan to invest in a better drone. Right now I’m just frustrated.
DJI keeps on raising the bar! This is a great entry level choice. I do lament their business decision to stop creating iOS SDK kits. I’ll keep my Mini 2 as I can use iOS Litchi to do Waypoint planning on either my desktop (I love having the bigger screen and the stress-free setting of my computer station) or in the field with my controller/phone and use iOS Maven for GPS Follow Me while also offering grand kids a safe training environment with Maven's Geofencing feature.. Hope all is well with you and yours. Take care!
Has anyone successfully been able to get the Google Pixel 7 Pro to work with the Mini 4K ? When connecting the cable to the controller the phone constantly switches between charging and not charging. I updated the FW on both controller and Mini 4K temporarily using an iphone.
Would i need a license if im using the drone to make a TH-cam/tiktok video ? Would I need a license if I wanted to record myself showcasing painting the outside of a home or pressure washing a home or doing any exterior jobs ? Or would I just need to register it?
Get the Mini 4k here: amzn.to/3QppTcG
I just bought this drone as a beginner and was nervous about whether I would enjoy flying it. The price point seemed perfect for testing the waters. Let me tell you, I love it! I'm still learning and getting comfortable with it, researching and being extra careful. Yesterday, I flew the furthest I have so far. As the battery began to die, the drone automatically went into return-to-home mode and made it back with 10% battery left. I was nervous because it looked like the battery was depleting fast. I already know I'll upgrade in the future, but for now, I'm just enjoying the experience and learning. Worth every penny. I will say, I had alittle bit of trouble with the DJI fly app, as it it not in the android store, only for apple. They have it to download for Android on their website. I have the Samsung s24ultra.
how far did you sent the drone in meters?
How about 5 months later? are you still enjoying it? would recommend it? or buy it again?

That M30T is a Boss! Wish I could afford it!

Hey all. Well, I couldn't resist. I registered with Drone Pilot Ground School, paid $239, (hundred dollar discount through today. Whew..), and I'm goin' back to school. 😢
How about the low light quality ?
would you like to shot at night to let us see the mini 4k at low light quality ?
Ya had me paused for a second when I saw the Scandinavian Heritage pop up as the example video! Grew up down the street from it and moving back soon. Just ordered this model for checking crops at the farm.
Sold! Heading over to Amazon now… thanks for the recommendation. I did some research and came to the same conclusion!
The DJI MIni 4K is now available at DJI website. Just picked one up a few days ago from DJI.

It should in the app. Does on all my phantom series.
@@davidthom279 really!
@@davidthom279 Not sure, but the Phantom series may utilize different software.

I was thinking the same thing.
Have you tested the new dji googles 3 with this is it compatible with this drone or more geared towards the higher end ones
Great review, thanks very much.
Answer the question we all want - Compared to Mini2 ...
@cigarbearreviews False... the original Mini 2 can do 2x zoom at 4k. See page 36 of the Mini 2 user manual.
Does the extended 2 year warranty cover fly aways, crashes etc? Is it worth it?
Hello Russ, do the batteries of the Mini SE (Not the Mini 2SE) fit? TY I hope all in your family are doing well!
Just do a comparison with the Mini 2!
Russ you never mentioned what RID module you were using on your DJI Mini 3K Drone.
Hi Russ, if I understand correctly, we have to purchase the SD card to get 4K videos, can you recommend what card, and how to transfer videos to a computer? Please?
Thanks, Rich
You can use a microSD adapter (like 5 bucks) and just plug it into your computer
Will the RC or RC2 “I think those are the ones with built in screens” controllers work with this drone. Also what happens if you get a call while using the remote it comes with.
no it does not
Its a mini 2.

Do u think it's worth upgrading to this if u have the mini se
Can you review the Limitless 5 drone and gives us your thoughts about it? It just landed in the market about 4 weeks ago so it's their newest drone
Where do I get drone only. I have mini se 2 so I don't need the remote or batteries.

Does that drone have GPS? I believe that a drone needs GPS to be able to hover.....
I do wish they’d release a non Mini Pro that is RID compatible that has a good price tag like this, but say $350 area.
DJI keeps on raising the bar! This is a great entry level choice.
I do lament their business decision to stop creating iOS SDK kits.

Hope all is well with you and yours. Take care!
will the batteries from a DJI Mini 2 fit the new DJI Mini 4K?

Newbie question, I saw you impressively catch the drone. For us mere mortals, is this actually dangerous, i.e. can the rotors cut our fingers?

No SDK no LED don't bother gorillaman
Should I get a mini 2 se £250
Or mini 4k £270
(I have the original se but I’m getting a new one
mini 4k 100% 20 pounds for 4k 30fps 2.7k 60fps whereas the mini 2se is 2.7k 30fps
@@a.xdenn_ I have been watching vids and I rlly can’t tell the difference
What happens if you don’t register
3:47 I see what you did there 😂
😂
Is it the same exact thing as a mini 2?
Yes minus the SDK and the nice little LED light at the front
the link does not take you to the mini 4k
Would i need a license if im using the drone to make a TH-cam/tiktok video ?
Would I need a license if I wanted to record myself showcasing painting the outside of a home or pressure washing a home or doing any exterior jobs ? Or would I just need to register it?
Only differens with remote controller rc-n1c shorter battery life 4hours vs 6hours with rc-n1
Waypoints?
Nice
