DJI has thus far been able to hold off the competition for the most part in just about every corner of the drone market. With the Mavic Mini offering, it seems they want to bridge the gap between small size and ultra light weight while achieving maximum flight time and range. They are on their way.

Hey Dustin just wanted to say thanks for all of your highly informative, helpful, understandable and most of all UNBIASED reviews and just to encourage you to keep them coming because it’s a great way to keep the rest of us from making the expensive mistakes....mostly......anyway thanks and mahalo👍
Thank you for not screaming "WHATS UP GUYS" while flailing your hands around like the robot from the old Lost in Space tv series. You earned my sub bc of that and the excellent content of your work. Carry on!
You mean "PWHATS UP!"?
Sounds like milhouse to me
Awesome videos on the Mavic Mini. Learning so much! Keep them coming. Cheers! Happy holidays!
Thank you for your videos on the mavic mini, I really appreciate it. Have a great day and Merry Christmas!
There's always some dude walking up lol
One of your videos came across my feed, I watched it and fell in love with the drone... a few videos later and I purchased one!! Keep up the good work!!!
Cool, I like the experimenting you did with this. Learned some good things from this video. Thanks!
Thanks Dustin...always a fan of your reviews. I watch them constantly. You inspired me to start my own channel.
Thanks for talking about the mavic mini. I’m getting it for Christmas and now I know exactly what to do when I get it.
love your flight test videos, I can't wait to get a drone. Thanks !!
Definitely enjoyed the video Dustin!! Merry Christmas to you & your family 🎅🎄
I just recently found your channel and I'm really digging your videos man. I personally don't own a drone yet ; But your videos are inspiring.
When you purchase a drone be aware the technology is changing almost every week so try not to blow your budget on the first one you see.
Dji is currently the market leader and from my experience the best there is but the drones are expensive and so to are the accessories,bye the time you fill all the accessorie compartments in your case you'll see an add for a new release that makes your current drone seem like a dinosaur
@@mancavecreations6535 Not necessarily correct.
The M2P is in my opinion the best on the market at the moment and with all the tech it boasts its is fairly future proof for a while.
@@mancavecreations6535 I wish there was an American Alternative to DJI. China sucks
Love the video, I'm thinking of buying it. These videos really help. Thank you.
Just bought this drone, your videos really helped me make my mind up in getting one.
Good videos ... thanks
Merry christmas !!
thanks for the good review. you deserve more subs!
There we go, I’ve seen other videos regarding this little experimenting to uncover this ability, thank you for not jumping on the “It’s gimped!” Bandwagon a certain someone started.
Mini 2 is out with still no active tracking
Great video. I’ve just ordered one of these. I’m in the U.K but will be taking the little fella to Portugal in April. Can’t wait! Thanks as always.
i still learning and learning alot from you thank you so much
What's up man love the vids found u cus I'm actually getting one here soon but did u do a video on like how high it can go?
Dustin love the video ! You realize that it’s using just the GPS tracking to land ! If it gets into 2 ft of where it took off I think it’s doing great ! Keep up the good work !
As always great videos dustin, I'm sure tracking function will appear on the dji litchi app when they have it ready for the mini as well as way points etc.esp if dji don't update the firmware to include them.
Very good series. Thanks for all the info. Just ordered one today
6:20 You can even take picture or record internally on the SD card using the dedicated buttons! However they will use the last configured settings for video or photo.
Thanks for the review of Quick Shots 👍
Thanks, this video is very helpful
Great test indeed. Thank you. I reckon for the budget this is up there - is there anything better?? It's just in my budget. The picture quality although not 4K, it seems is still excellent.
Dustin...great vids! Hey how do you record the dji screen real time? Basically what is your setup...if you do not mind? Thanks!
Thanks for great videos, your videos made my choice easier, I'm going to buy my first drone 😁 Dji Mavic Mini Fly more combo ! So looking forward to this. Thanks again for your great work 👍 Best regards from Norway 🇧🇻
Just got mine thanks for your reviews
Hey Dustin! I wanted to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas from Santa Fe!!
Thanks. My other home 🙂🎄
I’m so jealous with the weather your having. I live in the Evergreen State of Washington and it’s been miserable. It’s been raining for almost 5 day’s. All I’m doing is flying my mini in my garage! LOL.
Try living near London rain rain rain
LIKE A T6 I’m sure if I lived there I would also fly my Mavic Mini in my garage! 😂
i feel u bro. i just got one and the weather is shit
With those long shadows cast on the field when the gimble's pointed straight down, making giant silhouettes on the ground, you could do some sweet formations/animations... hmm. Maybe I'll try that.
dope vid brother. 🙏🏽
as useal always super info , love it...
Great tutorials Dustin, Thanks. I'm waiting for delivery of a dji mini in a couple of days.
Can you explain more about return to home - and how to set that so my drone doesn't fly away - as I read about.
Leave the settings default for now and test it from 100 feet or more. Only reason it wouldn't return is if wind is too strong, crashes into something is in front of it or runs out of power. I've never has an issue otherwise 🍻
Nice video, where are you located? Looks awesome.
The thing I want to know is, did you ever get any work out of that guy who interrupted the early testing video? 😄
Yeah good point, did you make any bank off that guy Dustin? Curious future pilots are rubbing their paws in anticipation! 🤭
Yeah what about Hans??
I went over to his place afterwards and advised the best times of day to shoot but he never called me.. lol
@@DustinDunnill Thanks for the update! Stay safe my friend.
He didn’t call because he wanted you to film for free..... People always want it for free.
Merry Christmas Dustin🎄🎄🎄🎄
🎄⛄
hey Dustin, what drone do you think is comparable with the new Skydio 2 in active tracking and following for sports?
Will you ever do a giveaway for the mavic mini.? Been watching a lot of your videos. They’re awesome man !
Hi Justin, I have a theory on how to get the drone to land bang on the H in RTH. I don't know if you notice but when you took off the drone moved slightly then said the home oint has been updated. That's point is the same spot where the drone landed so I would suggest moving the drone slightly off the H so when it takes off and moves hopefully over the H it will map that down as the home point. Again it's only a theory.
Happy holidays pal
Gorgeous shots of Maui!
Hey Dustin Dunnill, caught your videos while researching what camera drone to get. One thing that did come to light is that the camera actually tracked you while performing the dronie manoeuvre which suggests that the active track is just a software omission to make you buy a more expensive drone, what do you think?
Ah Question answered! LOL. Still a great drone and a great review! just bought it! Thanks Again!
Hi, I was wondering how you take care of your mavic mini batteries and what you would suggest doing with them for storage even if it's just for a short time like overnight or 2 days I know for 10 days You're supposed to keep the battery at around 40 to 60%.
This is very informative and shows stage by stage on how to fly the drone , has a novice I do enjoy rhese videos and hope to get mine up flying soon.
Thanks Mark. Glad they help 🍻
Great video brother. I hear that some people had wind fly aways because it's very light in weight. Happy Christmas from ireland. 👏🙌👍✋❤☘☘🎄🎄
It's not weight, it's airspeed.
The weight is an issue in gusty conditions because the lack of inertia means it'll accelerate up to wind speed faster than a heavier drone, giving you less time to react. On the plus side, it'll also decelerate faster when the wind drops, or accelerate faster into the slower air between gusts. In a steady wind it it's just like any other drone, it's just a matter of whether your max speed is faster than the wind and whether you have the juice to get back at a much slower ground speed.
This could all come back to bite me because I'm about to order one. Overall I think it is a slight 'con', but more something to be aware of than an actual 'issue'. I don't imagine a situation where I'd ever HAVE to fly, and I wouldn't choose to fly any size drone in the conditions Dustin tested his in, so hopefully...
DJI should do paid update for active track. i'd pay like $20-25 for active track on the mini
There's an idea. Kind of like what Parrot did 🤔
That would add to the weight :D
@@coryzirk5299 what would add weight? It's just a software update. It obviously has the capability to track you during quick shots.
Lol. No weight addition from a software update 😂
@@stevehansen266 clearly I was joking haha
I still love it Dustin. Definitely want one lol. I'm sure your next video you do will convince me to buy it. Hey have you thought about doing a range test of the mountain with the parabolic dishes? Be cool and interesting. Happy Christmas to you and your family buddy. Cheers :)
Wet informative man, thanks. I have to say I was getting a bit ‘dizzy’ watching this on my iPhone w your 3 views going on one screen fyi
With RTH I usually hand catch anyway, so if its 1-3ft out its no issue. The main thing is that is come back :-)
So I just got to Maui and want to fly but it is pretty windy. Do you have any recommendations?
Do you know of or do you feel like this could be adapted to land on water as in you're mavic pro video?
+1 Dustin great video. I would propose you also check out other apps for controlling the drone that have follow modes
For the mini? Which ones are those friend?
Good demostration of quick shots. Someday hopefully DJI will have software updates enabling follow mode.
i think it will kill their sale on mavic air then
@@johnnyjeppesen6992 yeah it's sad but true I think
Try precision landing after being exactly over landing pad after 30 ft in air. Use camera pointing down. Works for my Air. Also, Air has a switch to pick precision landing.
I’ve loved your videos for a while and now I’m doing my own drone videos and pictures on instagram
That was a great review, it does seem that the tracking may need to be tweaked, hopefully the DJI engineers will take another look at the feature in the future, I was wondering why doesn't the Mini like the other Mavics have rear legs? I assume you have the same 400 feet FAA restrictions there just like on the mainland, how are the local PD about drones in general? Just wondering. I used to live on Maui and I"m trying to figure out what park that is? It looks like somewhere near Kehei maybe closer Kahalui, somewhere in UpCountry? Anyhow it looks like a nice big place to fly and do reviews, wish I still lived there, Now I live 7k miles give or take as the crow flies near the Oregon Coast where it's cold and rainy most of this time of year. so how's the Vog been lately? :)
No legs likely to keep under 250grams. No issues with PD as long as you stay clear of people that may complain. Kula ✌️
Hitting the power button on the mavic 2 does stop the beeping in return to home and another great upload
Really appreciate your videos as they are very informative. Sort of chapter 2 versus other reviews. As we have now concluded, unfortunately the Mavic Mini does not have a “follow me “ mode. Incredible to think such a fantastic drone is short of this feature. That said, I am very curious to see how simple or difficult it would be for you, a person with lots of drone experience, to follow say a jogger, or a cyclist or a skateboarder in action or even a motorcyclist / car with the drone. Is it possible that this Mavic mini is so easy to use that any of the tasks would be simple with excellent results ??? My main attraction to this drone is definitely the quality 3 axis gimbal video, folding compact size, simplicity and all under 249 grams so to avoid any FAA permits. Look forward to your conclusions. Thanks.
Hi mate,im having some problems getting the controller to do way-points and i wanted to ask you if theirs anything im doing wrong or need to do. I can't get the controller to do way-points with my H501S drone . I get the maps to show up no problem,but when I tried to send the way-points to the drone it says 'mission send failed'.but if i press the top icon 'focus' then press 'send to drone' it works and says 'focus sent successfully'. do you know what I can do to solve this . I also deleted the Chrome app and the Google maps App and I can't seem to download them again . when I go into the Google Play store and I tried to download the apps it keeps saying unable to download because of storage space . I have the Google Play app connected to my Google Play app on my PC which shows up the h7000 controller, and Iv have managed to add one app which is the video app onto the controller without any problems . do you know how I can get these apps back on the my controller . when I try to do Way-points I follow all of the instructions from the RUclips videos and I don't have no problem. I can get my position on the map to show up on the sunbird app .I don't have any problems connecting it to my Wi-Fi , it shows up on the screen. when I draw way-points and pressed send to drone I get a message saying unable to send . can you help me . thanks for your help . Tony
Hey Dustin, loving your vids. What mic are you using? Great Audio :)
Thanks. I think I linked my gear in description 🍻
Dustin Dunnill ok, great. Apologies, I should have checked. Thanks again Dustin. Loving your vids. As I always say, hey from Australia. 🇦🇺
I hope you and the family has an amazing Christmas and new year!
In Hawaii it's called Mele Kalikimaka
can you do the flight review of mavic pro again. kinda back from the past like
Merry Christmas
I appreciate your videos. May I ask what you are using for a hat cam
Please see my gear in description under video 👌
Hey
My dad and I were using this drone today and we couldn’t get the quick shot function to work... we have an SD card in it, but the drone doesn’t lock on to our position... any thoughts?
I saw a video, to point the camera towards the ground, when landing from RTH. It will automatically level again, just before landing. Seems to pick up the landing pad better.
Great vids man, just wondering is the landing pad has to be out, or can the return home function simply go off GPS?
Yes it can return close to this accuracy on gps only. Some identifying objects mayhelp the bottom cam to land more accurately 🍻
I'm pretty sure the tracking feature is possible, but has been disabled by DJI to make the drone less capable so it doesn't compete as much with other DJI drones...
You definitely need a mini wind sock for your helipad, itll also help with wind direction sensing :P
So in the end if i want the best DJI drone, which one is the best overall?
I'm new to DJi drones as of yesterday. Im a freestyle/race pilot mostly. So I have to ask, can this drones software be updated? Surely there can be more quickshot presets added through those updates and also a proper follow mode, if it already has some type of basic object tracking.
Yes it can, but it's up to what DJI wants to open up.
Hi from Croatia. Great video! Looking to buy Mavic mini
im looking to buy a drone which would you recommend,??
wonder if that lack of active tracking is due to the hardware limitation or they can fix it in the future by updating firmware.
4:35 Is this the dron quality camera or is rendered video?
Hi Dustin, Happy New year.
Do you prefer mavic mini or zino pro? my purpose is to create some videos when I go vacation and start my RUclips channel. Thanks
I still need to finish the ZINO PRO review 🙂
Can you compare it with Spark?
How do you install updates. I just purchased one
When you gunna do the holy stone 720?
Dustin, it doesn't matter that people are telling you (15:09) that tapping the RTH will stop the beeping but keep coming home because those people apparently haven't read the Mavic Mini User Manual which states on p. 13, "The user can cancel RTH by pressing the RTH button on the remote controller."
I'm doing 1 more, probably 2 more. Awesome!
I wud def buy this drone cept I purchased a Mavic Air fly mor combo already. I need the obstacle avoidance cuz I'm still learning the controls.
Hey Dustin, would I have to register the Mavic mini with the FAA if I add the propeller guards when flying? Will it add weight to the drone? Going over the 250g.
I honestly wouldn't worry about it. Just keep it close until you're better at flying in beginner mode, then take them off and go for it 👍
Dustin Dunnill Ok thanks a lot!
i cant decide between base model or the combo with extra batteries etc? help
love your videos dude. i hva the mavic mini and am struggling to upload my 2.7k footage to youtube or instagram. I dont have premiere pro. any advice? how do you do it? keep up the good work
tom bishop Mrry Christmas! If you have iOS you could download an app called Videoleap and you can compress your video from a range of 360p to 4K. Happy holidays
Hello? How about on android?
The real question here is that will Litchi be able to track & follow with the new SDK released for air mini and air 2 in July 20?
But how do you fit your oneplus in there? Mines so tight.
Does this come with lights on it, so you can see it at night?
nice video
Tested mine at 8000 feet MSL, 5-15 mph winds, and two broken propeller tips. Held hover, and maneuvered well. Pretty cool 'toy'
Well my mind is made up, l will be purchasing the DJI Mavic Mini combo. My wife and l will be celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary in June 2020 and will be flying to the islands of Cape Verde off the coast of Africa, l enjoy kite flying and hopefully be able to take video of my kite and others from the mavic mini. Also ideal for my future project when l retire in less than a year, is to photograph and record video of my home town and villages where l live here on the Wirral UK and to share on RUclips for every one to see. So thank You for all the videos on the Mavic Mini
Yeh yeh yeh just an excuse to buy yourself a mavic mini 🤣 don't blame you congratulations on your 40th anniversary greetings from South West Gloucestershire, 👍👍😊
Just watchout for those kite strings!
What do you think about the drone so far?
What mode is it in if you have no phone?
To cancel the beeping noise when returning home I would think it'd be the same as the Mavic 2"s, you click the power button on the remote once it starts returning, not the home button. Please let me know if you try it. Thanks, I always watch your videos as they are so well done and informative.
Neither worked. I tried the power button in the range test to 0% video 👍
@@DustinDunnill sorry I guess I didn't catch that. That's strange huh?
What type of wire comes with it to connect to your phone? Also is there any reason why it wouldn't work with a longer wire and a tablet? The only reason I ask is because I have an galaxy S20 ultra and with the case, it's pretty large. If it doesn't fit my phone, I'd probably just use my tablet.
Do you think theyre ever gonna add active track?
Very, very curious if CAVU ( Android VR app for DJI drones ) will work with the Mini? Any chance you can give it a quick try? Know you would need a longer cable w correct ends so understand if you don't have that cable laying around but you could still just hold it outright using a short cable and boot the app to see if it starts up.. Thanks :)
First time I've heard of the app. I'll give it a try 👍
@@DustinDunnill wow, figured you were familiar with it. It works great, used the heck out of it for over a year w my mavic pro. Tons of footage on my channel using it :)
Can we easily take off and land the mavic mini without launching pad ?
