Fantastic video! I appreciate the knowledge! I’m looking to buy my first drone and it’s between the 4k pro and Air 3s.
I purchased Air3s after watching this video and its also based on my budget.
great demo i love dji https://www.youtube.com/@vegature2906
Bro. can i have one ? hehe
This is exactly what I needed to see, I am going to purchase a drone and had many questions which you answered, Thank you so much!!
Solid job! I’ve been using the same technique in Brazil – drones make everything faster and safer.
Sharing some real-world inspections too, feel free to check them out
What I’d like to know is what’s the best drone for autopilot action cam for Watersports. I just want the drone to follow me on the water and then auto fly back home when the battery runs out
Great video buddy
This video was so good. It made me understand more or more of what I want. I want the mini four pro just to learn how to fly for now and maybe I can do a business with it. I don’t know yet.
I’m looking to upgrade from my dji air 1. I’m between a used mavic 2 pro or a new mini 4 pro. About similar prices but my main concern is the reach of the signal
Autel, Yuneec and Skydio drones blow those DJI toy drones out of the water in so many ways.
Well explained and presented, thanks for the guide❤
Temu drone the best
Easier to get started than expected. The beginner mode is very user-friendly, with one-key takeoff and automatic return functions that give a strong sense of security.
Great comparison and up-to-date insights. The balance between technical details and practical advice is perfect. A must-watch for anyone buying a drone in 2025.
Good stuff 👍🏼
ty boss, amazing guide!!!
My Avata 2 does all I need plus more! Got the fly more pack its well worth it.
Made understanding my options so easy! Thanks man!
Thanks for breaking this down Brother. gonna give you a sub and a like
Could you update your list with DJI flip? Really love your work
Thanks! Tried to buy the Air 3S but sold out everywhere. Found and purchased Mini 4 Pro with C2, Charging Hub, 2 extra batteries at B&H.
Anyone with Dji flip
What would you recommend for surveillance excursion of 15 KM perimeter of a lake?
Thank you for the information!! Great show !!
You rapidly brushed over that range department and moved along as quickly as possible. Thumbs down . One thumb only because you " mentioned" it. Otherwise, fail.
If you are a beginner get a cheap drone under $400 because you will crash it and if you are advanced then you wouldn’t need to be watching these videos you will already know what to get.
Can you update the spreadsheet to include the DJI Flip?
So its now July and the 04 Air Unit Pro home built is the best way to go with DJI drones for professionals. For non-Pros Trumps import tariffs chilled DJI Avanta3 and Neo2, The 5 series is also on hold. So the Mini 3/4 and Air 3/4 are best. The Neo has been given a huge update. I use a Neo with RC+iPad and Goggle + Controller. Its the best for small fun, the Avanta2 is a bit better with Goggles + controller. The RC+iPad is by far better than DJI RC2 because you get a bigger screen.
"DJI really outdid themselves in 2025! 😮 The innovation this year is on another level — from insane camera quality to flight stability, it’s wild how far drones have come. Can’t believe some of these made the list 👀🔥 Which one’s your favorite? #DroneGoals #DJI2025"
Easier to get started than expected. The beginner mode is very user-friendly, with one-key takeoff and automatic return functions that give a strong sense of security.
What about the Air 2s?
I have a old DJI Mini gen 1 with fly more combo. The controller uses your phone and I doubt the app is even supported anymore. I still fly the shit out of it. Camera isnt bad.
Dji inspire scares me for some reason🪑🪑🪑
Which one will you buy in 26?
Great review, really helped out me as a total newbie to drones
So manY… pausES… in.. the things… you sAAY
You need to do a new video, for anyone in America, that wants to purchase a drone, and not one of your drones are now available in America, so what do you purchase if dji drones are fully banned?
thx for this great vid. Very well strutured 👍
DJI gave you that BAG. Great video tho.
Just tell what drone I need for tracking cattle with the drone? Need RF tracking and Rf Drone. Need rechargeable extra battery and charging station. Thanks.
If you’re in the USA you’re getting nothing. Not from DJI anyway 😂
So basically this video should be titles "Which DJI Drone should I buy".
Very good, clear definitions and we’ll spoken! Explained in terms even I understood!
Thanks for a really well made video!
Thanks. I’m a newbie wannabe so really helpful and I subbed. I just saw a Mini 4 Pro deal in UK and I’m tempted. Cash cost isn’t really an issue for me, since as a serious hobby photographer I usually spend more than this on any camera or top quality lens I buy. Motivation is100% photo and video use.
Longer term I’d consider learning to fly at a high skill level, getting certified for heavier drones (best video and stills quality etc). But to start feel a 249g drone like a Mini 4 Pro ‘fly-more’ package is a great way to get started.
BUT, I’m really busy right now, with many priories so don’t have a lot of spare time to learn more than the basics. I guess, metaphorically, I’m trying to run, before learning how to walk. Also, critically, I’m hearing rumours of a Mini Pro 5 with usefully improvements and bigger sensor. All for similar cost (albeit no ‘come on’ deal), for potential launch within a few weeks!! Maybe that’s why I’m being offered a serious discount today??
It’s a dilemma do I buy today or wait 4-8 weeks and buy an upgraded model at start of it’s life cycle rather than at end? Then again,, delay and procrastination is a good way to put off forever!. Also I’d likely get ‘grief from my partner, who’d rather I spent less time on indulgent photography and did more domestic chores (gardening and house painting etc etc). On balance I’m minded to delay, turn down my ‘Godfather’ deal, make a point to ‘wife’s that I’m forgoing the opportunity today, so as to clear way for a soonish future ‘investment’ in drone kit. Pay a bit more and get better kit later. That’s probably my best move, considering all my options and circumstances.
In some ways I’d like to just buy a top end drone now (cost isn’t my issue) but can see merits of a sub 250g drone as a starter to learn with – smaller, quieter, less regulatory issues on where, how to fly, less cost if I ‘crash & burn’, more discrete, easier travel etc etc. Anyway you helped confirm my DJI acquisition path….
Watching this video from a country that bans drones 🙂
Do you know why my DJI mini 4 pro will only fly about 3 km and then wants to return home?
Dji neo all the way cheap but amazing
when using your phone you can set up shortcuts so that your phone goes into do not disturb when you open the dji app, it makes it a lot more reliable if the n2 is not an option for you (like myself)
