I LOVE ALL DJI PRODUCTS! I have mini 3 and min 4 pro, Avata, Pocket 3 and Action 4. I have never had any issues with any of them. DJI builds very high quality products, THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!!
Same, I have the mini 2, mini 4 pro, and action2, used DJI care on the action 2, 3 days I received a new one with all the accessories new as well, I really love DJI
I recall Gopro having a big release of their drone, and it felt like DJI released the mavic days or weeks later - the Mavic had fold away arms and blades and slipped in to a trouser pocket.
Well Done. I have the first Phantom, the second Phantom a Spark, Mini 1, 2, 3, and now the 4 pro. I have produced many videos on them when they were new up till now as well. I am quite amazed at the technology that exists in the new ones. Thanks, this was quite informative. Subscribed.
My fleet of DJI quadcopters includes the Phantom 3 Standard, the Phantom 3 Pro, the Mavic 1 Pro, the Mavic Pro Platinum, the Mavic 2 Pro, the Mavic 2 Zoom, the Air 1, and the Air 3, all bought sight unseen and used on eBay. Calibrating the IMU, compass, obstacle avoidance sensors, and camera gimbal was all it took for those vintage drones to fly and film as though they were brand new. TH-cam's algorithm surprised me today by suggesting I check out this fresh look at DJI's success story, which includes footage and photos of the surprisingly young man whose electronics engineering genius propelled DJI from humble beginnings to world market domination. Liked and subscribed.
@@RickBeacham I highly recommend buying used DJI drones, and when buying on eBay from a long-established seller gives the buyer the option to return the product for a refund.
Wow, that video brought back a memory! Back in the late 90s/early 2000s, I saw my first-ever quadcopter at the TRW swap meet in El Segundo. This thing was huge, probably 3 feet across, with wooden arms! It was mesmerizing to watch it fly, even though they kept it pretty low to the ground (around 5 feet). It drew a massive crowd. This was way before DJI was even around. I have a feeling one of the aerospace engineers from the nearby companies built it. I remember thinking how amazing it was, especially since the only other remote-controlled aircraft I knew of back then were gas and electric helicopters (which always seemed super dangerous!). I even remember asking the pilot how he was able to keep it balanced. He spoke of some technology on it that would keep it balanced for hovering on its own in one spot.
I just bought an air 3s this is my 6th DJI drone. I am so impressed by the quality of there products the attention to the details are just exceptional.
Make a video about how the Israelis and the Ukrainians discarded American military drones, and instead bought DJI drones and modify the payload for military use.
Fascinating to see the history of DJI. I have an old mini drone of theirs and it's a great little device. It's amazing how a change of perspective from the drone can change your photography and get you different results.
Nice documentary. I have seen videos of the drone based light shows held in China, where something like EIGHT THOUSAND drones fly in synchrony. Amazing stuff.! One question is HOW do they do this? The bandwidth is too limited for addressing each individually in any complex manner. Plus, in an urban environment, there is likely to be interfering noise.
I think one of the most important thing that people always overlook especially Colin, DJI base is in ShenZhen, how can you beat it in terms of pricing, development, talent, high efficiency production…😅
This was very enlightening. Thank you for making this video! I was an early fan of GoPro and thought they were very innovative. But being in the tropics I would always end up with overheating issues. With each new release GoPro would claim to have fixed overheating and improved battery life. Time after time I would pick up the new model only to realize that they overheat easily here also. So I bought a DJI Action 4 and that all changed. In over a year it has never overheated and in my opinion is a much superior product to the GoPro offerings. Now I have the DJI Action 5 (wow), DJI Gimble, DJI Mic 2, DJI Neo and will continue to use DJI products simply because they have proven time and again that they are high quality and reliable products. Oh, and because of the Neo (great fun) I see another DJI drone in my near future.
Wow! I’m glad you liked the video and shared your experience with us! It’s so nice to try many different devices, so you know all the pros and cons of them not from someone’s reviews, but your own experience. Appreciate it!
@@Anadrolus Excellent question! I haven't had it overheat yet, but my longest shot with the Action 5 is only about 10 minutes. When I get back home I'll take it on a long ride in the heat and humidity of Cambodia. Set to the highest stability and bit rate it should be a good test.
Truly inspiring, I've always wondered about the technology behind DJI. Now I understand it's because of lots of failures and research by the Wang Tao. Remarkable.
Excellent video, I absolutely love DJI, & I own 8 DJI Drones. I have the Mini 3, Mini 4 Pro, AIR 2S, AIR 3, Mavic 3 Pro, DJI FPV Drone, Avata 2, Neo, all Fly More Combo's. My wife also owns a Mini 4 Pro, I also have an Autel Evo Lite Plus Premium bundle, & Potensic Atom 3 Axis Gimbal version, but in my experience, nothing compares with DJI. Im currently studying for my Part 107 Comercial Drone License.
@@walkingwithsandels5728we seem to like the products so much that we’d rather keep an older drone than sell them at a loss, they hold value, and bring us pleasure…
I remember going to a toy and hobby show in Schaumburg way back. I remember drooling all over the Canon Rebel stuck to his helicopter. I also recall this expert pilot demo-ing the copter in a truck doc, flying inverted, stunts...pretty cool. Sounds like I saw DJI at their start.
The first widely available commercial quadcopter was the x-ufo from Silverlit in 2009, which was based on a design of Daniel Gurdan from 2003 for German competition "Jugend forscht" and commercially sold by his company UFO starting in 2006.
Just one more time, this proves that such success can only be achieved when there is drive and passion, and the final goal is not just money. This is often the case now in the US corporate world, where shareholders are driven by a thirst for money and little else.
Just when I was considering a different brand or custom drone for my 5th drone,thank you for reminding me DJI already has it down! That G.Taoh for sure is way smarter than me
Been flying for over a year now, and started with the mini 1. I want all first series of DJI as a collection, and buying them now second hand in good condition makes it possible. Always wanted to be a pilot and fly ... DJI makes me feel like i realy am flying in the air. They make alot of people happy. Free at last :)
phantom 1 price was at 530 euros,without a gibal only with a plastic case for gopro 2. the first gibals was 2 axis. zenmmuse H3-3D was the first gimbal for phantom 1 and 2.
his products saved lives during hurricane Helene. they transported food and water with DJI agra, when land vehicles couldn't reach the area that cut by broken bridge and road collapsed.
Excellent video. Can you explain or do a video on the drone brand called “ Specta”? It’s supposedly a new quadcopter startup , based in Hong Kong. The bizarre thing is that the two quads they offer the Specta Mini and Specta Air are DJI quads without the DJI markings. Even the Smart Phone App is 99% identical to that of DJI? When you open a Specta Mini and compare to an open DJI Mini 2 or 4K you’d be hard pressed to tell the difference between the two. Thanks for the video and I look forward to learning what is found regarding Specta.
Thanks for commenting and giving me idea for the next videos. I’ll try to do it after DJI series. Btw, in next episode I’ll tell more about some of DJI’s competitors in Shenzhen.
So basically DJI had a choice to choose between making drones strictly for corporations and government stuff. Or go the second route and go consumer. And this quite possibly was the best decision that they ever made. If they had gone with their first route nobody would really know who they are today. I mean people in China would. But they ended up going for the second consumer route. And this in turn caused their popularity and name to explode, now there's very few people on the planet that don't know the name DJI . Now in 2024 DJI is the dominant company for drones. Few companies can even come close. And their drones are incredibly popular among millions and millions of people. I have had three DJI drones. And my current one is the Air 3.
Good work. I've owned three DJI drones. All were excellent in their own way. My Ohantom3 went to a friend while I still have my Mavic Platinum Pro and Mini2. DJI are the best in the business.
I own a phantom 4 and mini 4 pro as well asxan autel nano plus. I have never had any problems with DJI but my autel is currently at the bottom of a pond after losing all power after only 45 seconds from takeoff and 65 feet feet away when it drop straight down into the water.
The litmus test is if DJI could create a drone which could help CARRY wounded mountaineers from Mount Everest down to safety. That would be the ultimate Showcase of it’s benefit to society. 👍🏼
The heli you showed at the beginning was $30,000. I used to own a larger Align TRex 600 and it cost around 2 grand. Were you referring to the second one?

huge respect for Wang Tao, people like this make the world a better place and our lives nor boring.
I believe when DJI came out with the DJI Mavic Pro is when DJI sold more drones than any drone on the market today.
Yeah, kind of. I’ll give more details in the next episode 🙌🏻
I recall Gopro having a big release of their drone, and it felt like DJI released the mavic days or weeks later - the Mavic had fold away arms and blades and slipped in to a trouser pocket.
@@showpicsthe Avata 2 is really opening up FPV to a lot of new pilots. It's definitely changing the game.
wow some REALLY early DJI footage there. Crazy to see how far they have come in such a short time!
This is called China speed, actually Shengzheng speed, for which prototype to production can happen in a week.
So well done, been flying DJI for years, found the history fascinating.

A "wealth" of information. Excellent graphics. Fun learning tool. Thank You. Great effort. Well worth watching. Greetings from Ontario, Canada.
It's interesting to see the Align T Rex 600 involved in the early prototypes. It's become a bit of a classic itself.
The biggest driver of their sucess is that they are vertically integrated, developing every part of their desings.

The heli you showed at the beginning was $30,000. I used to own a larger Align TRex 600 and it cost around 2 grand. Were you referring to the second one?
And don't forget probably the most important item is to look after the consumer, which, from what I've seen, DJI does an amazing job doing it quickly with a minimum of fuss and trying to fix it so it doesn't happen again by update of product hardware and/or software.
Striving to make new exciting products keeps people interested.

I owned the phantom crazy how much smaller they are now
IMO Dji is the best Tech company coming from China, apart from their automotive companies like BYD.
This is the one that is similar to Sony, that they innovate, and make great build quality.
Dji did do other 3rd party agreements with its cameras, Hasselblad.
A huge factor is that DJI is a privately held company and so need to put money into stock buybacks as with companies like Apple and TI and so more is spent on R&D and this shows with the new drone models introduced every year. In the USA the managers are focused on short term profits and their bonuses and so there is much less innovation as we see with Boeing and so many other American companies.
