    Billy, thanks for the review. I watched this after i got my SE. Purpose for the drone is why i bought this one. Im a gold prospecter in Australia, i use it to look for good ground. Park the car on a track surrounded by trees. Lift off above the tree line camera pointing down. Fly around till i see good ground then bring it home.

    I think the price is right in that sweet spot where beginners who just want a stable camera in the air can justify the purchase, and if the lower performance increases the life of the motors that could be a bonus to some.

    This a really helpful comparison! Thanks! I had already bought a refurbed Mini off eBay for $199, arrived a couple days ago, haven't opened it yet (and wanted to hear your review before I opened the package). Main reason for purchasing: taking drone pics and video for real estate. Another review on UA-cam of the Mini options (Stewart and Alina) suggested that the Mini was adequate for real estate. The Mini was less than half the cost of a Mini 2 so I decided to start cheaper and try things out. Yeah, the Mini 2 sounds like it has some nice additional capabilities. I may not need them to take property photos and videos at close range.

    Good review and good points as always. I still have the original Mini and use it for close flying like roof inspections but not on windy days and not very far away lol. I use the Air 2S for cinematic and professional grade footage. I think that DJI had a bunch of spare Mini parts and decided to put them together and as you say we have the "Frankenstein" Mini SE. The SE wasn't supposed to be sold in the US but the price made it an affordable option.

  • @scratchmyitchytesticles7844
    @scratchmyitchytesticles7844 2 роки тому +6

    I think the SE had one purpose. Market share Everything was in place to produce the SE, development was paid for and it really didn't need any marketing. If you put out the most reliable drone for a very low price you get the new buyers that might go for a Fimi or Hubson. I know if I was getting my first quad I would go for the SE just for the reliability. Why take a chance on a quad that was released but not fully developed (Hubson Zino pro) or a Fimi x8 which you have a 75% chance it having issues when you can get a very dependable DJI for $300 and some change? And yes, DJI did intentionally hold back on features. If it performed like a Mini 2 even though it's capable nobody would buy the Mini 2.

Going to jump off topic here - Question: the camera on the Spark, is it the same that is on the mini series? There are times I feel like the photos/footage look better coming from the Spark. Anyway great videos! Thanks.

    Pretty sure the mini SE is about getting more people to buy one of their drones.
    All the big electronics stores sell drones around here.
    But I've only ever seen 3 drones fly around. And two of those where those professional big ass drones. One from some tourist company, and the other was the water and heating company, flying around at night, looking for leaks with thermal.
    The last was some elderly dude, just wushing about on a field. Drones haven't really caught on in my part of the world.
    So I'm guessing they need some cheaper alternatives, that's still better than those really cheap toys.
