  • I flew the DJI Mini SE, and the DJI Mini 2 at the Snake River Canyon to get a side by side comparison. The DJI Mini siblings did not disappoint, and I can wholeheartedly recommend both of them. The Mini SE is just a steal at $299. However if you want more features, like 4K video, faster flight, and digital zoom, the Mini 2 is not much more at $449. I had a great time flying both of these drones. Don't forget the bonus content at the end of the video.

      Screen dimming - is this just not the result of the controller arms blocking the ambient light sensor, making the phone think it’s in a dark room and dimming the screen?

    I didn't realize that the Mini SE was slower than the Mini 2, I thought they had the same shell and motors. That's great information Marcus, and thanks for sharing. The Mini SE is a great bargain at $299, and perfect for a casual flyer. But for anyone else I'd recommend saving up the extra $150 and getting the Mini 2. Great review and test flight.

    Great video Marcus! With regards to the screen dimming issue on iPhone, I have seen some videos here in the UK that suggest putting the iPhone into Low Power mode on the battery, and switch the phone to Do Not Disturb. This seems to cure the overheating problem and screen dimming issue with iPhone following the DJI Fly App update 1.4.8. I have tried these two settings on my iPhone when flying with my Mavic Air 2 and have not yet experienced any performance issues with the screen or any overheating. Maybe worth a try?

    Hello Marcus Nice comparison and both Mini's have a good visual camera but a difference in the color grading and sharpness his noticeable. If I was standing by the cliff I would never get has close like you did. You never know when the rock will break loose. The rocks on the bottom definitely come from above, I would not get close to the edge just for a video. Stay safe and enjoy flying your drones. From Quebec Canada

    I definitely agree with your frustration regarding seeing a black phone screen during flight. It is difficult to see a phone screen on a sunny day, even if the phone is not overheating. I tried a sun shade a while back, but that was almost worthless. I still had to find shade to see the screen. I hope the drone industry can solve this problem without requiring the pilot to buy a $700 remote controller.

    I got so tired of iPhones black screen that instead of buying another drone, I bought the high end Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. Then I discovered that the new phone was not compatible with my dji drones. However after doing some research, I found an APK file that made it all work. So now I have a very bright phone that never dims down or even gets hot. As a responsible pilot, I think safety sometimes requires upgrades. My S22 Ultra was expensive but well worth it. I can fly with confidence and the phone has some amazing cameras built in as well. I've made up my mind not to buy iPhones anymore. At least not for drone flying. I have flown out 6km and back with no problems at all because I can see a nice bright screen on my S22 Ultra. The Mini 2's range is it's best feature. The SE is alright too for those short range, line of sight flights. Thanks for the comparison. It all depends on what you need in a drone. For most people, the SE is fine and cheaper. But for me, range is my desired feature. Cheers!

      A DJI mini 3 with all that, plus the sensors? That's a drone no company will beat. At an affordable price of course? I think Autel would probably close their doors for good, but I like Autel also. It's just that I don't think they're reliable? I just don't trust them drones.

      I'd take the Mini SE over the Mini 2 anyday, due to SE's better command stability after it's given an input from the remote or whatever device you use to fly the drone! I don't know if y'all noticed from other videos on youtube, but the mini 2 has a problem with wind resistance whenever it's given a command. The mini SE however, after it's given a command from the controller it stops right after the command has been performed it doesn't move an inch or two to the left or to the right up or down. The mini 2, has some difficulty that's clearly noticeable after a remote command has been given, it still moves an inch or two in the same direction where the command has been given, before it stabilizes itself!!

    I loved this video on the DJIs and the scenery is spectacular. I just purchased the Mini SE and have only done one short "get the feel of it" flight and will be doing some more later today when it warms up a bit. My impression so far of the SE is the video is superb, but the stills, not so much. (I use a 24mp DSLR for still photography)
    One suggestion though for when your phone starts getting too hot; If had your vehicle positioned, you could raise the hatch and stand or sit under it to get the phone out of direct sunlight. Add a lawn chair and a cold beverage, and you are all set.

    I've owned the Mini 2. In your side by side, and to my surprise, I noticed more detail and a clearer image in the Mini SE.
    Did you guys noticed the same? Where the video settings identical in your test?
    One important difference for those that take aerial photos, is the ability of the Mini 2 to record photos in RAW format, more info with minimal sensor processing in your photos gives you more flexibility to edit.

    • @IdahoQuadcopter

  • @asdaven1
    @asdaven1 Місяць тому +1

    I think Mini 2 is only more powerful because it pitches forward and back at more of a angle. Wonder of some of third party apps can "unlock" that for the Mini SE owners.
    Also the motors might have more power due to the slightly higher voltage Li-PO battery in the Mini 2. The Mini SE uses a standard Li-Ion battery. Li-PO batteries are better with sudden bursts of power unlike standard Li-Ion. So I know the Mini 1 /SE battery can be used in the Mini 2 but dunno if higher performing Mini 2 battery can be used in the older Mini 1/SE. The 1st generation battery will give the Mini 2 slightly longer flight time but supposedly puts it over 250 grams. So another advantage being lighter with the Mini 2 batteries.

    I hooked up a Lenovo M10.1 HD tablet to my mini 2 controller and got a cable FINALLY that worked from Rick at Drone Valley. He is a great fellow and posts good info on his videos as well. I saw you at Jensen Beach in Florida and saw a friend (Dawn) my friend's wife's daughter sitting there enjoying the place exactly where you were. Dawn is a great friend and a lovely woman as well. She lives right there in Jensen Beach on the east coast there. I know her from living in St. Pete near me on the west coast side. Your step daughter is a doll and I liked her video. I also saw you at the Snake River again just today with 2 friends enjoying the air 2 S again. I wanted to mention to you about perfect landings no one knows much about. If you launch and allow the drone to rise then it stops, then go up to 30 feet or exactly 10 meters as you say and wait a few seconds still and then go fly the drone should land exactly on a pin prick of a spot as mine does every single time and it even states Compensating for a landing in a few words if it is windy. All of this always begins at the 30 foot height on return (RTH). The Minis except for the three will not do that. But all other drones have it including Mavic 1 pro, Mavic 2 pro, Mavic 1 Platinum, and Mavic 3 and 2 S as well. You have to go to that height and allow it to see the pad because if you do not it will not look for it when dropping to a 'FINAL' as it starts really looking at that 30 foot or 10 meter level. If not is is too late to adjust perfectly and will go by GPS only. When I first got my new Mavics all of them I had to select a box to do a exact landing several times and then it went away and does it all the time as long as I rise on take off and then after a second or two go up to that 30 foot or 10 meter height and pause again for a few seconds.. If you only go to 20 feet as you did it is too late when returning as a decision has already been made to use the GPS location. For me close is only good in horseshoes and hand grenades. LOL Ray C.

    Can mini 1 batteries be charged using the mini 2 battery charger port thing? I’ve been looking for a flymore combo kit for the mini se here in the US. The only one I can find is one on eBay, but it’s like a mix and match unofficial flymore kit. It comes with the one mini 2 battery that comes in the standard mini se box, but the two extra batteries the fly more includes are mini 1 batteries. And the kit doesn’t include a three battery charger port, keep in mind the combo is $100 more rather than $150 like the usual fly more combo. It’s a mini se combo for $400 minus the charger port and with two mini 1 batteries instead of 3 mini 2 batteries.
