I will talk to Potensic and try to get this rectified.
3 axis gimbal version pre order from 17/9/23
I've wanted a drone for some time. I started doing commercial field inspections and decided now was the time to get a drone for roof inspections. I found the Atom at a reasonable price and jumped on it. It's been way too much fun. And the photos that it takes are very high quality. Super happy with the product.
That is awesome to hear. Thank you for sharing. My review on the Atom is coming early next week.
Thanks for the review, Dan! Used your code to order it and I was impressed how quickly it got to me (shipped from within Germany). I have plenty of RC models incl. several helis and planes but never really tried a drone (outside of some micro toys). I absolutely love the Atom SE and I personally do not miss a "proper" gimble (much) - I just take videos and shots for fun and enjoy the very solid sensor quality, especially considering the price I paid for it. I am sure that plenty of drone enthusiasts would never consider this instead of a DJI but for any "demanding drone beginner" this is just about perfect. Without a doubt 5/5 stars! 😅
Awesome! I’m glad to hear, thank you for sharing 👍
Just used your code and ordered one! Super excited going to be my first drone!
Awesome 🙌 🤩
Good tutorial. Thanks for the code. Makes getting my first drone affordable 👍🏻
Awesome! Glad that I could help 👍
@@DansTubeTV ordered with your link. Now I wait😄
Cheers for the great review!!!
No worries at all, I’m glad that I could help. Connect with me here: linktr.ee/danstubetv
Just bought mine using your code! Thank you for sharing!
Awesome! I’m glad to hear, I can’t wait to hear about your experiences with the drone.
Where can you use the code, is it Amazon?
Quite the offering. How would you compare it to the Mini2SE and3?
Flight performance is similar, but the stabilisation and camera quality is a lot better on the Mini 2 SE and 3.
Wow, this budget drone actually looks pretty good. And with your discount code, this night finally be the first real competition with DJI for a first-time starter drone. Do you know what the sensor size is?
The sensor is a CMOS 1/3”. Find more details here: www.potensic.com/atom-se-specs
A great review, it was so clear and easy to understand but have you done one on the 3 axis model yet.
I will be testing the new Atom 3-axis model when they can send me one to review 👌
Thanks a lot for sharing. The horizon is terrible, I would go for a beginner drone that has a 3 axis gimbal, like the dji mini 2 se or the fimi x8 mini v2.
That is completely understandable.
Hi. I see that the new version, have 3 axis gimbal.
Big price difference thou .. you wanna pay a few hundred more $$ just for a 3 axis gimble
The drone flies better than my mavic mini ill say that.also,my mavic mini stopped working so i have to send it in one of these days.
@@superbert35how’s the camera
Does this drone have a “find my drone” option where you can locate it on a map if it goes down?
I don’t remember seeing this feature but I might be wrong 🤔
@@DansTubeTV well I’ve just ordered the Atom (not the SE) so if it doesn’t have it, I’ll just have to be extra careful. 😅
When is Potensic going to get their act together and offer HDR or at least AEB (auto exposure bracketing) on their drones?
One day 🤞
Would this be a good starter option to use for real estate photography in your opinion?
Go with a know brand like DJI. The mini 3 is perfect for real estate photography and you’ll have the comfort of knowing you own a good brand. Just my two cents
@darkside-ck6mp that's actually what I decided on yesterday. Thanks I feel better about spending more more hearing it from someone else! 🙂
DJI is the brand to go for, especially if you’re doing paid real estate work. You want the reliability of a trusted drone, and a stable camera. Check out these combos and deals if you’re looking to upgrade: linktr.ee/danstubetv
I comparison shopped, learning and losing other drones for months. I fly in the city.
Does what I need and want. Resolution is excellent. Stop nit-picking. For about 200 dollars, this is it! You'll never remake Gone With the Wind. Get real.
DJI can go scratch.
The Potensic SE doesn't crash. Controller is perfect for me. I'll get a 3 axis model soon.
The Potensic Atom SE is a great drone. I will be releasing my review of the Atom soon.
@@DansTubeTV Upgraded to the Atom. No SE. Highly pleased.
@@HarryHamsterChannel - great to hear! 🚀
how is it in the wind? my holy stone 120ds can’t handle the wind well at all
It is great, it has a level 5 wind rating. It can handle strong winds 💨
I own 2 Potensic atom se drones. And I'm disappointed at how fast they go into Attie mode. WAY too soon and close to the controller. Ive had mine 75' high, 20' to the side and Attie mode would kick in. Not good
Hmmm, that is weird 🤔
Could this be due to antenna direction?
Dang I wish I saw this video. I just ordered the Fimi x8 mini v2 a day or 2 before this video was released. I like how they both have a controller that's like a Nintendo Switch, it makes it easier to touch the phones screen. The controllers both look the same but they are different brands. I wonder if they both have the same 3rd party company make them?
Hmmm, they might have similar companies making parts or supplying parts. Thanks for watching, I’m sure that you’ll enjoy the Fimi x8.
Indeed, the atom is a copy design of fimi X8 mini, you got the better original one:)
The Fimi Mini v2 is far more capable and alot better than the Potensic Mini.
Sorry if you said but when you want to transfer videos and pics from drone to laptop or pc do you have to remove the micro SD card and put it in the lap top or can you simply plug in the drone to laptop via usb
Many thanks mark uk
I actually never tested that, I don’t have the drone anymore so I can’t test it. Sorry!
@@DansTubeTV no worries Dan. ..I think you do have to take the SD card out ...it's all good 💯 I'm going to buy one black Friday deal
Cheers mark
@@markpulling12hello, did you buy it, I just wonder same question, do you have an answer ?
@@mustafaenesyaldiz yes I bought one....yes you have to put the SD card into the computer....it works well cheers mark
You have come a long way since them days of the Orig Mavic Pro. Looks like a cool little drone for its price :)
Yes, it has been an interesting journey. I’m pretty impressed with the flight performance and camera quality. I’m hoping for a 3-axis version.
Great review. Question: Does it determine where you can and cannot fly? I have a DJI Mini 2 and live 4.99 miles from a small airport and I am unable to fly in my own backyard due to DJIs limitations.
I don’t know, I never tested this. Check the link in my description. It will tell you if the Atom SE has geofencing restrictions. You might want to reach out to Potensic directly.
@@DansTubeTV Thanks for the reply. I will reach out to them. And now I know it's called "geofencing restrictions."
just ordered one. with the code. was in doubht with the dji mini 2 se. hope i made a good choice
I’m sure that you’ll enjoy it. Thanks for watching 👀
Thank you sir for your great review
Thank you for watching!
That's a hell of a deal. Cheaper than Amazon even with their coupon. Thanks!!
No worries! Enjoy your new drone. Did you use my code?
Absolutely. It's the best deal on a new Potensic. Better than Amazon and there is no charged taxes for those that don't know! So for 210 a brand new drone!! Thanks again!!
@@DansTubeTV
No worries at all 🤩
You can get this drone for free. So the deal isn’t that great tbh. I ordered my for no cash
Oh yeah, how'd you manage that?
@@BenutzernameXY
Which is better they do have the 3 axis potensic mini now but out of the this one and the fimi mini who wins?
I will be getting the 3-axis drone from Potensic soon and then I can tell you 😉
Sorry if I missed this but if I use an SD card is the only way to transfer the footage to my iPhone is Via an external card reader?
That is what I do, I believe that you can plug the drone into your computer as well.
Can you overlay street names on the gps map that is in the bottom left hand corner, to help better orient your drone's position?
I believe that you can change the map view, I did not thoroughly test it and I don’t own the drone anymore so I can’t comment.
DO YOUJ THINK THIS IS BETTER THAN THE DJI Mini 2 SE?
No, the Mini 2 SE or Mini 3 are the drones to get. I’ve got some deals here: linktr.ee/danstubetv
Should I go for the potensic atom se fly more bundle or just the potensic atom
The Potensic Atom has a 3-axis gimbal. You want the one with the better gimbal system. The SE does not completely stabilise the footage or level out the horizon.
@@DansTubeTV yeah I know but equally I won't be able to get a bag and will only have 30 minutes if that flight time, is the potensic atom se really that much worse?
Watch my video again, the footage is not entirely stable and the horizon is on a tilt. Do you mind what your video footage looks like?
@@DansTubeTV true tbf but it's not unusable, have you flown and used the potensic atom at all yourself
Not yet, waiting for them to send me one 🚀
good review i salute u
Thank you for watching, I salute you 🫡
Should i get this one or DJI mini 2 SE?
I would suggest the Mini 2 SE for the 3 axis gimbal. Check out my drone deals here: linktr.ee/danstubetv
what drone blades are compatible with the potensic atom se
Go to their website, they should sell accessories.
Great video thanks for sharing only problemi have with mine is i carnt find any video on how to format the SD card ive asked someone else and they just sent me a link to 1 of there videos which did not tell me how to format the SD card so i was wondering if u could help me with this has my videos are watery and choppy please can u help me as i dont know how to format the Sd card for this drone many thanks.
You should be able to format the card through the settings?
Can the videos and photos be easily downloaded to my iPhone or iPad?
Good question, I did not test this. I just copied the footage from the Micro SD to my computer.
great coverage Dan. i want one of these drones. how long will the 30% off last. i wont be home to get the delivery till september 11th. so i cant order it till the 7th. think this is ok in time?
The code expires on the 30th of September.
How did you get one in Australia ? They told me they do not currently ship the Atom to Australia ??
They sent one to me for review purposes.
@@DansTubeTV maybe i should start reviewing . Hahahaha
Not a bad idea 😂
When ordering from the main site...Is a warranty available?
I don’t know actually, try to contact Potensic directly.
Can i buy from you drone potensuc atom 4k used is ok how much you sell
You can redeem my deal which is linked in the video description 🔗
Thank you for the review. Could you create a video comparing the Potensic Atom SE with the new Potensic Atom featuring a 3-axis gimbal? Additionally, do you happen to have another discount code for a 30% discount?
I might have a discount code when I review the new 3-axis drone. I should be reviewing it soon 🚀
Dn how long will the 30% off the Atom se last? i can not order till the 7th cause i wont be home to accept the package? think the discount code will still be good on the 7th? thanks
\
The discount code expires on the 30th of September. I appreciate the support, I hope that you enjoy your new drone 🚀
You should just order it now and have it sent to a family member so you don't miss the deal.
Are the way points greater than 1 kilometre.?
I actually don’t know. I haven’t tested the waypoints that far away.
Tried your code for the 3 axis gimble & it does not work ?? Do you have a code that works ?
It should be working, try it with the different fly more combos? If not, reach out to Potensic and mention that you want to use the DANSTUBE discount code.
@DansTubeTV tried again no luck & unavailable to ship to Australia for some reason ? Have sent an email to them .
The discount code doesnt work on any kit i choose
Try again, if not, contact Potensic and ask them about my code. See what they say.
Can you review a 1200A drone from inspired flight? Please!!!!!
I can try 👌
How does it do on Windy conditions?
It handles the wind extremely well 💨
Thank you
Thank you for watching!
Quite honestly bro the vast majority of us new drone fliers are not interested in 'follow me' or 'way points' or 'circle me' or any of those other fly around gimmicks. We just want good photos, simple operation and some very good range. And return-to-home that works😁
Yes, great points. That is exactly what most of us want.
NAILED IT!! 👍
The majority might but I do like knowing which features it has and those he mentioned
Very true
There is an amount of beginners that are probably learning for their job in which waypoints makes it SO EASY to learn/teach to get required pictures that phones cant take
What is the video bitrate on the 4K videos on this drone?
The max video bitrate is 40Mbps. Thanks for watching 👀
3 axis gimbal version pre order from 17/9/23
Awesome!
Do you need a license for this?
It depends on your country but it weighs under 250g so you should be fine. Check out my drone resources here: linktr.ee/danstubetv
Were you able to test the return to home? you would certainly like it to do so on a low battery or signal loss situation.
I did not have to test the return to home feature as I flew back when I was at 30%. It did force itself in to return to home at one point but I cancelled it and landed manually 🛬
Great beginner drone 😊
Agreed!
Stopped at 02:38 , since there was no need to waste more time. If this company paid him for this review/commercial does anyone believe it was going to be a negative review? He put all that time in learning about the drone, flying it, then the time to edit and upload, all while only getting a $299 item and nothing else 😂
Not true. This drone is great, people seem to love it. The only major issue is the lack of a 3-axis gimbal which is being fixed with the latest version.
How is this vs the hs720r?
I have not tested the HS720R so I can’t comment.
Nice review, but the tilted horizon is horrible and a 100% deal breaker.
Fair enough 😁
Honest review. I used your code and just bought one on the official store. Very reasonable price, another € 40 reduction! I hope it will arrive soon. I have experience with RC flight, but I'm a novice when it comes to drones. At a price of € 256 delivery included, having a 4k drone that apparently has all the feautures you summed up, is a bargain I presume. :-)
Got one love its
That’s great! Thanks for watching 👀
I just ordered mine on eBay for 160$ let’s see what we got
Great deal, I’m sure that you’ll enjoy it.
What’s your update on it?
Still an awesome drone. I’m testing the 3-axis version over the coming weeks. The video will go live on my channel soon 👌
Looking at your footage, the horizon on this drone is consistently crooked. And crooked by a big margin.
That's a mega fail.
This drone is a total waste of money, its rubbish.
For only a $100 more in price, the Fimi Mini v2 is vastly capable & feature packed mini drone.
Fair enough, the 3-axis version of the Potensic Atom is the one to get. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Discount not working
I believe that they are having stock issues and had to stop the discount code for the time being. Reach out to them directly and mention DANSTUBE to see if they will honour the discount.
Your code didnt work
Weird, reach out to them via email and mention my channel/video. They should be able to help you out.
Not sure if you remember me but it me heavens eye official
That name does ring a bell 🔔 Thanks for the ongoing support, how are you?

I was hoping to win the drone give away but I guess it was not my time still is not
I still wish to own one tho I'm not giving up on my dream
Looks like there is room to pack a lunch in tbe carey bag l. Very nice 👍
Yes, you could easily take some snacks 👌
Heyyyy Big fann
Thank you for the support, I’m a big fan of this comment 🤩
Looks like the DJI mini but a little cheaper price wise
Yes 🙌
@@DansTubeTV what's the price of this drone? I'm looking to get one
Check the link in my video description.
Oh that horizon so bad....
The horizon is leaning 😅
poor review no real critical look at this so i am off it
I made comments about the limitations of the gimbal… otherwise, this a great drone. A lot of people are happy with it.
they had a gun to his head for this one
Not at all. The drone is fine, the main problem is the 2-axis gimbal.
video quality no good. terrible
I don’t agree, the stability of the footage is not good but the video quality is great.
WOW, a drone video that's not DJI!! The only thing I don't like about it right off the top is the removable controller sticks! It's a really stupid idea and it is NOT a plus! It makes them easy to loose in the field and you will be surprised how hard it is to find them in the gravel, grass or weeds! This tread of drone makers needs to stop!
I don’t mind it, it just requires a little more attention to detail and patience.
Again another experienced expert reviewer who doesn't know how the follow-me should work to be usable in real life. Do you want me to explain?
Do you want to explain to everyone else reading this what exactly you're talking about?
@@DanielCrist Certainly. Follow-me is kinda my thing. Many don't understand the feature.
First, there are basically two types of follow-me: 'Sting' and 'Compass'. Only the last type is usable like when you're on a bike trip. It means you can position the drone north south east west of you and it will stay there. Of course without obstacle avoidance you want to see what it is doing. Watching the phone screen is not possible riding a bike, in the Sun, looking at where you're going. But it is easy to watch the drone if it flies in front/next of you in view. So you can steer it around a tree or something.
The Atom SE, as many other drones, has 'String' type. It will slide to the side and only follow from behind. Most people were born with their eyes in front of their head. So you can't see the drone. Unless you are walking slowly watching the phone screen. You have to fly the drone very high to avoid hazards. And you won't see much of the landscape with you in it.
Secondly. You didn't mention if you can use the sticks to position the drone where you want, and while in follow-me mode. I bough a C-Fly Faith Mini and it disables stick input in follow-me mode!!! That makes the feature useless. I have to go in the app, press the follow-me stop button, and take over control, then fly it around a tree, go in the app again......
Lastly, very important!! Does it .update homepoint??? Belive it or not, when you move you are no longer at the spot where it took off! Imagine riding down a pass in the mountains, and having to race up again like an idiot before a truck runs over you beautiful quadcopter! I had a F11 4k Pro. The video was good, the follow-me worked, but it flew back without any warning! So I sold it again. It was also hard to fly smooth manually at the right pace.
Now before you say you need to spend more money, my LYZRC L109 Pro does everything right. Compass type, I an use the sticks anytime and it will immediately follow again, and it automatically updates homepoint where I am, or stopped follow-me. It will hover for a while and very slowly come down giving me all the time to take over control and land it where I want. And the funny drone keeps me very nicely in view! It is not as responsive as the Fimi A3 ( best GPS follow-me drone ever made), but it does a great job following the phone. I just wish the video was better! The lens is fish-eye, and the cheap 2-axis gimbal very shaky. If it had EIS like the Atom SE I would buy one right away. Without a fragile gimbal it is much easier to carry in your pocket or bike bag.
So hopefully I have explained how follow-me should work. Trust me, I know what i'm talking about. Most reviewers don't. It ain't their thing. They stand in a field and are only interested in pure video quality. For me the video quality comes second. I want a small reliable easy to fly drone manually, with a proper programmed follow-me. It's all in the app! Maybe a DJI Mini 2 with Litchi or Maven would make me happy?
@@DanielCrist and you're right about DJI's Active-Track. It's a great feature with many advantages. But nobody uses it on a bike tour where you don't have time for all the trial and error. They all fly it manually. But I'm sure they would use follow-me if it worked as simple as on my L109 Pro drone.
@@driewiel I'm not sure why you keep addressing me as if it is my video, I just wanted to know what you were trying to say, and I'm sure anyone else reading your comment also was wondering, because you made it sound as if he said something that was incorrect about this drone's follow me feature.
And to be honest, I'm still not sure what you were trying to say, other than that your drone has a superior follow-me mode, but it's not like he was saying this was the best follow-me mode on the market or anything, the only statement he really made about it was that he felt that this signal-based follow me was better than a visual-based follow me.
