Take-off weight decides which rules apply to you, before anything else · review
A sub-249-gram drone with a 3-axis gimbal, 4K video, GPS return and a 10 km video link. This combo includes two batteries and the RC-N1C controller for about $389.
Budget drones stabilize in software. The Mini 4K carries a 3-axis mechanical gimbal, which keeps the horizon level and the image steady without cropping. That is the main step up from everything under $200 on this shelf.
DJI rates it for level 5 wind, about 38 kph, and quotes up to 10 km of HD video transmission. In practice, US rules require you to keep the drone in sight, so the range is a measure of link strength more than distance.
Two batteries give about an hour in the air. The RC-N1C controller, a shoulder bag, a propeller holder and spare propellers are included.
This listing is sold by a third party, Hibikin-US, at about $389. And Android owners must install DJI Fly from DJI’s website, since the app is no longer on Google Play. The FAA’s rules decide where and how you may fly, whatever a listing says. Check the FAA website before your first flight.
