    I had the Potensic SE and I believe this is the same drone plus the gimbal. After trying professional level and the most expensive mini drones... I appreciated what a Beast Potensic was. So fast, so strong and so durable! I believe that at this price point, no one can compete. If you don't use the drone for professional shooting, this must be the perfect drone.

    • @DwayneLasaga
      @DwayneLasaga Місяць тому

      I have a way to fix the atom se and it's better on the horizon than the new one the Gimbel is not the problem the new drone ain't worth the upgrade note how the drone is not flying straight there the same problem and the 3 axle Gimbel was not the right fix . The only thing that's better is the 20 degree you can look up and the sd card that comes with it In my opinion it's not worth it they fixed nothing

  • @snapgarrett1

  • @DwayneLasaga
    @DwayneLasaga Місяць тому +2

    Id like to say the problem with atom se is not the Gimbel it the drone it don't fly straight you take it in any conditions and take off and you will see it is flying straight. I trimmed my propeller on the side that was up it took 3 attempts I got it to fly straight andd now my horizon is straighter then the 3 axle new drone .

    Get a lot of horizon tilt even when stationary. Looks like it will be a pretty good little drone once they get the gimbal figured out. As long as it remains cheaper than the DJI minis it should do well.

    • @edrone_

  • @GrumpyDrone
    @GrumpyDrone 10 місяців тому +3

    I watched another video regarding this drone and first flight did the same with the horizon view tilted. It straightened and stabilized way better after testing it through all three modes. Seems it had to work itself loose. Also another reason I'm buying this Potensic rather than the dji mini 2, is that this one has another feature that the mini 2 doesnt have. Most reviews of the SE and the 3 axis have missed in thier reviews is the waypoints feature.

    • @paulking7019
      @paulking7019 10 місяців тому +2

      Wow I didn't realize no waypoints for the mini 2. That is a deal breaker for me. I have an older Mavic Pro and even its waypoints are not really waypoints. You have to fly to each point to set it! It is more like recalling where you just flew than waypoints. This Atom has much better waypoints that allow you to set them on the map. I bought the Atom without knowing that about the Mini 2. I got my Atom yesterday afternoon and now it's raining today. I got to fly it once at almost dark. Much more power than I thought it would have being as quiet as it is. I could still see fine in the low light despite the low light warnings. I landed and It started updating so that was the only flight I got in. It is 240 grams with battery installed.

    • @GrumpyDrone
      @GrumpyDrone 10 місяців тому +2

      @paulking7019 That's great to hear, you seem to be happy with it so far. I have the Air3 and those waypoints are awesome and you can set and manipulate them to do anything one wants. I've ordered the atom as I need a smaller drone to fly in small spaces and through gaps. I think it'll do just as well as the mini 2. Also a lot cheaper than the 3 pro and 4 pro. Have fun flying...

      Und selbst wenn er sie nicht bezahlt hätte.Diese Drohne ist ihr geld wert. Auch bei DJI ist nicht alle vom gelben Ei. Man muß sie selber fliegen um sich ein Urteil leisten zu können oder dürfen.

      Hundreds if not thousands of youtube folk get sent free products. It's a mystery to me how it all works to be honest . However, How do you shoot a video to get a free drone when you need to drone prior to shooting the video? Surely that would mean that either a) you don't need to try to 'get' a free drone because you already 'have' it, or b) you're using a borrowed drone to do the video, in which case if you wanted to get a 'free' one sent to you, you would need to big up the drone so the company favours your review. But - you don't know if it's good or bad prior to reviewing it, so if the drone is not great why would then want a free one anyway? And if the drone turned out to be good, hence you wanted a free one then the review would then be truthful anyway, so the end intention of the review is valid. The original comment doesn't make sense to me.
