You say “Buy cheap buy twice” but even two Mavic Minis cost less than the Mavic Air. Plus if you purchase the DJI Care Refresh for $39 (US dollars) then you can actually purchase two replacement drones (within a year) if the Mini is damaged (even covers pilot error). First replacement cost of $40 and second replacement cost of $49. So one could actually purchase THREE Mavic Minis for roughly $400 LESS than the Mavic Air.
Great idea... thanks
Yes but you wont have all the features and better video/image quality, obstacle detection and so on if you have the mini for all that time. Plus, you have to go through the buying process and waiting etc all over again
T D you did see the entire vid and the part where he stated that the Mini has better video quality than the Air, right?
Did you guys even read the comment? It had nothing to do with features, only in regard to the "cheap quality" of the Mini.
DanJ the “cheap quality” of the Mini is still a better buy than the Air. Better quality video than the Air. The only reason it is less expensive is due to obstacle avoidance detection. So IMO the Mini is a better buy.
The Mavic Mini has really impressed me with its video quality.
I've been flying multirotors since 2013 and just bought a mini. It's pretty incredible. I'm always blown away with how simple these ready-made quads are. If you already know how to fly nose-in with a manual unstablized multirotor, piloting the mini will seem like baytown frolics. It doesn't have obstacle avoidance, but for an RC guy, it's not really needed or expected.
thanx for the Mavic Mini line i was able to buy it and enter in the DJI world after 2 years of cheap drones fly i finally got DJI product.
Great video, i've bought the Mini based on lots of reviews including yours. The battery life & picture quality was the game changer for me.
the fact that it feels a little "flexing/giving" is precisely what will distribute the stresses and together with the 250g weight keep it from taking much damage when crashed. (source: experience in not breaking it when crashing + phd in mechanical engineering)
That's what I'm hoping too :-)
Crashed my mini 2 from 70m freewill (birdstrike) It broke the propellers and small cracks in the chassi. Rest survived :D
Thank you for all the great advice and the PDF ebook!
I have them both and a 1st Gen Mavic Pro. I love them all. Your videos are some of the best in their topics. Thanks.
His office must be very cold, since he's always wearing a jacket.. Great Video as always though ;)
If it’s Scotland it’s cold as shit there
I was just thinking the same... :))
And he films in his garage I believe. I remember seeing a bts in one of his videos. Great stuff regardless.
He lives in Scotland.
That's how you can afford both drones by turning the heaters off LOL
Interesting review, bought the Mavic Mini myself. Based on lightweight I can take it abroad easier without registration hassle for many countries. Coming from a Spark I know all about short battery life.
I bought a MM last year I fly every week, for a beginner it’s been brilliant I had never Previously flown a a drone but have a need for aerial photography for my job and since starting to use it ( I am registered for pfco ) I find it a super bit of kit I am becoming more adventurous and competent the different fly modes are great and camera and video are enough for me at this stage - and flight time per battery is good big thumbs up for the mini ,
I’ve found the Mavic Mini to be quite durable, Ive dropped it in a pond, dried it out as best I could then left it to dry over 2 days and surprisingly it worked just fine when I started it up again. It took another swim in a pool last week and I did the same thing, I dried it best could and left it for 2 days, still works! Also has some light run ins with some walls and some decent falls. Still flying like a champ. I got the care refresh just in case tho!
I pulled the trigger after I sold my Phantom 3 standard and bought the mini. Love it. I shot a 7 minute light show video, and for most of it I had a wind warning. The video was rock solid. You’d think I had it strapped to a post.
I bought a Mavic Mini based on watching your videos and reviews. I am so very happy with this drone! :) much love, from Australia!
Was expecting to contest with you that your points were off center, but having heard your entire argument, I'm agreeing. Thanks for the comparison. Excellent review!
Great video, thank you. Still have not had the chance to fly my Mavic Mini that I treated myself to and looking forward to flying it after watching a few of your tutorials. Best drone channel I’ve seen so far, concise, to the point, really useful information, keep up the good work,
I have the Mavic Mini and am new to flying drones. Live in Canada where it's cold now so haven't had much time to fly it yet. But the little that I have flown, it's absolutely amazing!
Great video as always :) this is one of the best channel on youtube. Good luck
Thank you, nice of you to put up the time of the comparison, class act. Thanks again.
I bought the Mini already, just came for the video review. Fantastic review and very in depth, thanks.
Have a Phantom 4 but that thing is so huge, I can't take that out of my house most of the time because of the size. The Mavic Mini fly more pack can fit everything in the case it comes in even with my old iphone, except for the propeller guards. Man I love this thing.
Great video. I love my mini! Much better then the air I sold last year. I have been flying in Canada winter's for many years and have never had a problem like I did two days ago. I was flying in -4 Celsius over a creek and my mini just dropped and I was extremely lucky it landed on an island of snow. I had an IMU error on my screen. I guess the mini is more sensitive to cold then most bigger drones. Just thought I would share ! Keep up the great work with these videos! My favorite drone channel for sure👌
You do us newbies a great service with this video... I for one am now going to hotfoot over to my favorite on-line store and get a Mini before they're gone. Your newest subscriber here!!!
Thanks. I could listen to your voice all day long. Love the accent! The videos and content at not too shabby either ;-)
The Mini is my 1st drone.. And despite the UK weather having kept me grounded most of January.. I'm getting more & more impressed .. But i do need the better weather, so i can brush up on my flying & videography skills.. Roll on Spring!
Get prop guards and fly indoor. That's a good way to improve your skills without waiting for weather
Timon Stemberg what about gps? It’ll be really unstable for a beginner
@@ricardot3763 If you have guards it doesn't matter If you crash at low ypeed indoor (no trees). It's easy to control without GPS IT think of you don't fly to fast maybe in C mode
@@limonscore - LOL, thanks for the suggestion, but i do have flying indoors already 'mastered' ... I'm keen on stretching my legs properly more outdoors. :-)
@@ricardot3763 The Mavic Mini doesn't need GPS for indoors. Just make sure the well room is well lit and it can use the bottom photo sensors to keep stable and hover.
Excellent video, Stewart!
Many thanks for all the work that you did to produce it.
I bought Luminar 4 through your link recently. Very impressed by what it can do - and so easily! Thank you.
Great comparison thanks.
I sold my Phantom 3 Pro to buy the Mini as soon as it was released and I have zero regrets. I flew the P3P less and less due to the size. Lugging it around and being very conspicuous when using it just made flying a special occasion. Now with the mini I take it almost everywhere with me. The video quality is great and the stability and control is absolutely fantastic.
Hi how are you finding the mini now. I am thinking of buying the mini but here in Ireland I am concerned it may be too light in wind and at hight.
@@fradrake11 I still love it, and still take it almost everywhere I go (which isn't far at the moment!). I've seen some videos where people complain that it isn't good in the wind, but I haven't had any issues at all, even in moderate wind.
@@LeightonGill thanks for the info good luck in the future
Great video, Stewart. Always enjoy them and learn things. I love my mini but my P4 is still my favorite.
Great insight on both drones, thanks for posting this comparison. Both are really good drones.
The Mavic mini is a cheaper lighter option. If you want the extras you go up a level and buy more expensive product (Although , being two years older than the mini, the advances in tech have put it on its metal a bit.) ... the Mavic air. On a personal note. I prefer the MA precisely BECAUSE it’s noisier, and easier to find again if you loose sight of it while flying. Which often means not having to stop everything to return until you can see it again.
Image quality is everything at the end of the day. And my P4(a) kicks the MAs bum. BUT, for MOST applications and for most clients. I have found that the Mavic Air is good enough for their requirements. So, I still use it, and it’s a great little aircraft.
Because of its portability it is the one we take on holiday with us. And we enjoy the results. So. I think that in spite of it being much older tech, it is still relevant today.
Excellent. Thanks for what you bring to the community.
Excellent video! Loving my Mavic Mini !!! you are spot on - love your Chanel
Great video! Just traded in my mavic pro 1 for the Mavic mini and I am veryy happy. Also excited to see an updated review after the latest update with manual video mode. Thanx
Great video - very insightful! I definitely agree with the destruction of detail in the shadows on the Air.
Haven’t known about auto WB on Mivic Mini. Really glad that I watched your video:)
thanks for taking the time to compare and make this video
Very good presentation. The way you explain is very clear and straight to the point. Btw nice jacket. I need one..lol
Superb comparison! 👏 it really does boil down to what you want and how much you are prepared to spend getting it. You could throw a spanner in the works by getting a second hand mavic pro, other than its size would be like having the best bits of both worlds...
At 9:54 on timeline.. I guess this is the honest moment of truth from a fantastic comparison video.
Awesome insight Brother.
Great informative video 👏👏 Thanks!
I own a Mavic Mini, I have crashed it into the window of my house at full speed in sport mode and I promise it hardly had a scratch. I just had to recalibrate and all was fine. It really is pretty strong.
Maybe I'm unlucky, I completely destroyed mines from a simple crash
Excellent review, straight to the point.
Great video! Very helpful for those people who are looking to purchase but still on the fence.
First class information thanks. Your experience certainly shows in your review.
Very good comparison. Thanks.
This is a great comparison of the two. Thanks for the video. I’m still on the fence. I’m a Realtor and would use it primarily for videos for my listings. But would sometimes use it for fun with my children too. I think the budget I’d like to spend will win in the end.
Did you buy the Mavic mini? If so, how are you finding it?
Excellent as usual - Great comparison - Mavic Mini is so good and although it was a long wait it was well worth the wait - I bought this rather than the Mavic Air after watching all your video's on the Mavic Mini. I'm so glad i did and Luminar 4 is awesome also.
I just opened youtube on my phone looking for Mavic Mini content. Boom I get your notification.
Great comparison, Stewart. I love my Mavic Air, but have considered going mini for its fewer regs here in Canada, but, the Mavic Air’s high wind performance is going to keep me in that cockpit. Alba Gu Brath!
for me, i wanted a drone to travel with. Im new to drones, but i love the mini so far. It fits in my coat pocket, side pouch on my back pack and the price is right. I really hope they add RAW in a future update and tracking. Tracking is probably the thing i would like the most. Seems crazy to have it on big drones, but not on one where the target audience is probably adventurists....or people out hiking for the day.
Really informative, and very easy to watch, I bet you have video retention rates other only dream of!
Great video.. thanks its helped me decide that im still undecided...
Great video, I perfectly agree with the astonish video quality of the Mini.
Could it be due to the Allbarella H22 video processor?
Yeah, spot on video! I have a Mini and I can say that the number one drawback is the wind resistance. I was in the Dolomites last week and almost all the time the drone was up in the air, it displayed the "wind warning" on the screen. Luckily for some shots, I used the Mavic Air, that a friend of mine had with him and that one had no problem handling the weather, but for 12-13 min of flight/battery...for me, that's a big No-No. What can I say...it's always pros and cons... Cheers from Romania!
Cam la asta incerc si eu sa ma decid. Timp de zbor mai lung sau rezistenta mai buna la vant.
@@sickboyXme destul de ciudata chestie. Bine, pe langa toate mie-mi convine foarte mult mini-ul tocmai din cauza marimii reduse la maxim (de unde vin si anumite dezavantaje implicit) pentru ca in principal am luat-o pt calatoriile cu motocicleta. Cand plec asa pe 2 saptamani cu mobra, chiar imi trebuie spatiu pentru toate lucrurile (mai ales ca suntem 2). Mna...de atunci am mai ridicat-o de cateva ori si nu pot sa zic ca am avut probleme. Acuma nici sa nu te gandesti ca mi-a dus-o vantu...atata ca era afisat mesajul pt vant si cam atat...dar ca "pilot" incepator, imi era greu sa apreciez daca atunci, concomitent cu afisarea mesajului de atentionare, drona va avea si probleme reale de a opune rezistenta la vant. In fine...cu 2 baterii am timp de zbor de aprox 50 de minute ceea ce e arhisuficient pt o zi, respectiv pt cateva locatii bune...
Great Points, Thank You !
Great comparison! I've been waiting MM last year and since shops do not have in stock, I got Mavic Air instead 🤦🏻♂️😂 But I still love to fly the spark 😂 I'm a lil bit hesitant in using Mavic Air 😆
Thanks great job I have both and agree fully!
Very fair review, thank you!
My Mavic Mini was was playing arcade flippers in the forest and survived well. It is surprisingly sturdy. I also suggest to get the Dji refresh care if you are afraid it can't take a beating (it can!)
Nice video...talk about dji upcoming drones, whether mavic air 2 coming or not what's new in evo2.
what are your thoughts on the mini now that video can be controlled manually with the latest update?
Really do enjoy your videos 🙂🙂always so well made 👍🏻🙂
Hi Steward, greetings from South Africa, thank you for this video it certainly helped me decide what my next drone will be as I am now in the market for another, mostly I need portability with good video capabilities, I am not one for automated flight modes as I prefer manual flight control. Once again thanks and all the best for 2020.
Hi, I'm also from South Africa. I'm from Durban. Just wondering if you had purchased your drone and if you had any feedback? Many thanks for your time
Great comparison, thanks so much! I’ll get the Mini though do wish it had those cool auto capture features. Any chance it could be added later in an app update?
great review, thanks so much! I had my Mavic 2 zoom stolen last month and now on I am a very tight budget (as I had no insurance) trying to decide if mini is something I want to spend money on. It looks like it is considering it being a temporary drone for me and then I wait for Mavic Air 2 I think. Again thanks for sharing your view
Marcin Bilski ,Correct, temporally, in two to three years, everyone will be buying another budget drone.
Because of the rapid improvements in technology, disposable, budget drones are the future.
Great comparison.
I bought the mini as a first drone and I’m amazed. My buddy owns several dji products so I will be able to compare them this summer, but for now it’s amazing. Slowly getting braver and braver but amazed with how far I can fly and be in control. Little glitchy at further range but still really amazing. The stability in wind is awesome. Very steady video in the wind.
From what I can see and have saw online and in videos if you can afford a mavic pro or pro 2 then get that but if you want to wet your feet and get practiced up or have a smaller budget then get the mini and you most likely will be very impressed. Learn on. $650can. Drone then get a $2000 drone.
Enjoy! I know I do.
I found a Mavic mini 2 days ago, watching the video I can see this drone hit the trees HARD the battery was 15m away. One £6 arm at the rear suffered a small crack! personally I'm very impressed with the damag because if that was my p4 it would be destroyed.
Don't worry I have advertised the found device all over fb so hopefully it'll be reunited shortly
Great video explanation! Love the transition you use, can you please describe it, or share a tutorial link. THANKS
I have had a P2V+ from the time it came out. To setup for a flight was a pain what with charging phone / controller / wifi extender / remote but with the MM so so much less messing around. I love the MM only downside for me is you have to fly it when there is no wind.
beautiful Gleneagles hotel!!! great video! Scotland must be the perfect place to fly a drone.
Thank you Stuart😉👍
I got the Mavic mini and loved it. Price is amazing and always get the fly more combo. The quick shot being so basic is not deal breaker cause I like control over my footage so I do it manually. I crashed it once due to the lack of obstacle avoidance but still fly no problem though I got the bottom cover replaced just because I want it to look good (hehehe...) and the price of spare parts is really cheap so its not really a buy cheap buy twice. the only thing I would like to have is active track I know it is capable cause it can track subjects during quick shots.
Great video as always, bud! Very informative👍👍
I own a Mavic Air, Mavic Pro 2, and I just bought the Mini and I would say the Mini is a great starter drone, but I noticed in windy conditions the drone does not respond well. The another thing I personally did not like is that the Mini loses connection very quickly and the connection is very choppy. My personal opinion, I would save up and just buy the Air or save more and get the Mavic 2 Zoom
Nice Video my friend! Keep it up 👍👍👍
Great... Thank you!
I like yur video ur really professional
I own both mini and air, BUT ! although my mavic air is my baby and my 1st choice drone, i have been blown away with what my mini can get away with. I haven't flown my air in a month .so far with me the minis only downfall is, if a cow farts, i have to take that into consideration when i fly as a wind issue lol. PS great presentation and accurate
Wonderful video 👍
Ive come from flying balsa gliders through epo gliders and now ive bought a mavic mini, i absolutely adore it! Easy to fly, easy to use, superb video quality.. I just need some sunshine here on the Isle of Wight! Haha oh and can you stop it raining too please 😂🙏 Love the channel by the way ❤️😊
After watching all videos
And understanding everything
Today was my 4th ever time flying... I just took of and for no reason magic mini started like moving in short but fast jumps right... only to find a driving by truck...
I currently fly a Mavic Air and Spark. Obstacle avoidance has saved me a few times until I turned it off and tried flying through window openings. Had to try.
Excellent and thanks for sharing, had the mini a few months and as my 1st drone i think its ideal, only wish it had RAW lol
If it's the same sensor as the Air hopefully a firmware update could resolve this
ps enjoyed reading your Ebook when i got my mini
"Drunk not he who from the floor can raise his glass and ask for more".
Many thanks. good vid...
DBM. England.
looking to get into drones, air or mini? im leaning towards the air as it will grow with me, and great vid, great info!!
Thx so much for this feedback
Great comparison. I've been flying a Mavic Air for about 1 1/2 years. Great Drone. I'm getting a Mini for 2 reasons. Portability and battery life. I'll let you know if I'm happy. Again thanks and be well.
Bruce Weiner Did you ever get the mini? I’m a beginner and I’m torn. The Mavic Air fly more combo is now on sale for $700.
I’m getting a drone soon! The mavic mini!
i have about 15 hours of flight time on my mavic mini, have crashed it three times. First time it was a simple propeller switch, second time got lucky, third time my hind leg literally came a part, was held only by the wire but i was able to super glue it back with baking soda and have flown it many times since no issue.
they are both amazing
Very good👏
Drone Film Guide have you ever tried the Autel Evo?
I have one an I'm interested in your opinion!
thanks for the great video. im new to your page so im a subscriber now so i will watch all ur content. cheers and stay safe with covid19
Nice review.
for my first DJI DRONE IM VERY IMPRESSED …..THE MAVIC MINI PACKS A PUNCH i thinking ill get more DJI drones in the future ….good value for yr money … and thanks foir yr videos too …….
I bought a Mavic 2 zoom a while ago and I love it. I love it so much that I recently got a Mavic Mini as a travel/wear&tear drone. I'm actually going to Scotland soon and I'll bring Stan Laurel (Mavic mini).
Slowshop & Custom I live in Canada and there is no rule for sub 250 g drone, I already own dji mavic 2 zoom and it’s awesome but I think I’m gonna buy a mavic mini for the fact that I can literally fly anywhere
@@bricktown3156 I've been to 5 counties this year and the Mini is a super good travel drone. I like it alot.
Slowshop & Custom thanks for the comments about it, I guess you still use the mavic zoom for high wind and for the better connection
@@bricktown3156 NP. Yes I do. But I used the Mini as a b-roll camera in the garage on my last film. Versatile!
I appreciate your videos, and I am now a subscriber. Love your insights and film industry take on all things drone related. Question: And I ask this question with complete r.e.s.p.e.c.t., and in no way in a Trolly kinda way... So I work in television and film as well, and I will be getting either a Mavic 3Pro or and Autel Evo 2 6k when they are out,. But in thew meantime I need something between $600-$1200 to replace my out of date and defunct Phantom 2+. I have been leaning towards getting either the Mini, the Air or a refurbished Mavic Pro (especially when people start selling all their Mavics to get themselves a new Skydio/Evo2/Mavic 3. I am very surprised with your assessment of the 2 camera systems. I am wondering about those optical oddities you mentioned experiencing with your Mavic Air, like the red color phasing and red color shifts, and the noisy darks left after the color correction was done. Are those flaws that are common amongst all Mavic Air line, OR do you think you were possibly sold a Lemon? An optically defective DJI Mavic Air, that just happened to have red shift tendencies, and other wEiRd flaws ? I just would hate to purchase a new Mavic MIni, after all these months debating the pros and cons of each, because of the facts I saw in this review, then, when I decide to compare shots from my new Mavic Mini with my coworkers new Mavic Air , and find out the hard way that you DID indeed get sold a lemon, and those odd optic problems your drone is experiencing are just a fluke, and not comparable to a properly functioning 4k Mavic Air? I, like most, would ASSume from what is on paper for the Mavic Air, that a 4k cam with the optics they boast it employs, will out-perform its 2.7k competitor the Mavic Mini ? Thoughts?
Thanks!
I love your style. Agree that Mini makes the most sense. Step up to Mavic 2 Pro or Phantom 4 if you need more.
Very nice video. I have a Mavic Air that I bought not too long ago, so I do question myself sometimes, should I have waited and then I would've been able to buy a Mavic Mini? But, to be honest, considering where I live (Isle of Man) and all the reviews I've seen of how the Mavic Mini handles strong winds, I may have gone for the Mavic Mini if it had been here when I decided to buy a drone but that would've meant that I wouldn't fly it very frequently and nowhere near as often as the Mavic Air. So, at least for me, the sturdiness and the ability to handle stronger winds of the Mavic Air makes it a clear winner - but then again, as you said time and again, that's due to personal conditions.
I've really enjoyed the incredible amount of details you provided, thanks, and keep up the videos, please! :)
Great video ! ABout the video quality difference... I came from the photographer world, where underexposing was a must... then I bought a SOny a6000 and shot one month of footage underexposed... and in the dark area all looked like crap... Meanwhile my friend used a Sony a6500, and overexposed lots of shots, and I managed to get back a vast amount of picture information from the blownout parts !!! SO my question would be: did you try to record a bit overexposed on the MAvic Air ? Thatt would be interesting experiment... And definitely would help to choose between the two ! MAny thanks ! Cheers !
Love that , I have the MM and so happy with it for what I'm doing with it as it is purely for entertainment value and messing about with buddy's on the golf courses.
