DJI Mini 2 High Wind Test!

[@mattg8888]

Only thing I worried about with this drone was wind and you posted exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.

[@Dcrainmaker]

No problem 👍

[@anthonyp2312]

Excellent test

Wow, perfect scenario for a disaster hehehe. Small drone with lots of wind, salt water, almost no land to land, Seagulls flying around, lost stick on the controller, starting with 89% battery, landing with 13% power. Big balls you got there!

It’s got that level 5 wind resistance

[@shivsparkky]

Appreciate the energy and risk you took for this wonderful review. That last minute landing was insane , caught on hand.

[@AdamBoltGoldCoast]

Well having owned the Mavic Mini I can see that the Mini 2 is a massive upgrade for wind resistance.

[@MikeFyxdt]

I’m thinking about purchasing my first drone and I have to admit, that was very impressive! I love how this was an actual test, and not just regurgitating the factory specs.

[@bjarnibaldursson6455]

Thanks for risking your drone for us! It's good to see what it can do in this wind. This video is not too shabby at all!

Just ordered the mini 2 yesterday and I thought it wouldn’t hold up in 10mph wind I’m so happy to se it could stand this. AWESOME VIDEO 🙌

Fantastic video & I subscribed after seeing this. Ordered my Mini 2 this morning and I’m feeling more comfortable and confident after seeing this wind test. This delivery can’t come fast enough!

[@Dcrainmaker]

Thanks for the sub!

[@RealLifesJourneyBecomingPinoy]

I have been using a triple blade kit from Amazon. I've been using it for over 3 years now and I found out that my drone was handling sudden wind gusts of over 75 km/hr so it doesn't mean to go fly it in high winds purposely either,

[@lensofthenorth42]

Sir, your video convinced me to get the mavic mini 2! Thanks! I live in Canada and we get some awful winter weather here. I was a tad worried about what it can take but this is plenty of legroom for me. Tomorrow will be my first test. Cheers!

[@alans2850]

The best wind test I have seen, handled it way better than I would have thought possible.

[@thomaskolb8785]

Wow, you were definitely on the edge of losing this thing to the water! Thanks for doing it for us!

[@JuganautTimelapse]

That's actually a really good test. That wind was really howling there soI was really impressed what that little Mini2 could do. Looks good...so does the quality of the video :-)

[@Dcrainmaker]

Thanks - appreciate it!!!

[@knowthyself1981]

@@Dcrainmaker how did you record your voice audio while operating the mini 2?

[@AndysEastCoastAdventures]

Considering the strong wind and tiny size of this model it coped remarkably well. The final footage was also very smooth considering the conditions. Lets face it, a sensible user wouldn't normally fly in these conditions so this was a great test.

[@Matte9]

I watched this becuase my biggest fear was a big gush of wind flip my drone upside down

[@Matte9]

Btw its the same model as this (but its the se version)

[@EdHecht]

Commendable job on getting usable audio. Well done, all around, sir!

[@ManMang0]

Great test, I am a new pilot with a mini 2 and I lack the trust it needs in the equipment, it still amazes me how incredible this tech is in such a small package. I'm glad it comes up with strong wind warning as I haven't seen that yet.

[@alancarter8396]

I fly a Mavic Pro. To see this tiny drone in wind like that is truly amazing. Good job.

[@vwbeetleb0b]

that's given me a lot more confidence with what these little drones can handle. thanks

[@Xbot4Life]

Perfect demonstration of the drones capabilities.

[@DNH17]

Just bought it a week ago still studing... This video is top. Respect, fly safe, take care thanks for the risky test Protect your eyes u cant change them no refund

[@465932465932]

I would not even think of flying in such a strong wind, cleverly done by you to cope with mini 2 in the storm wind !!!

[@imagesbydavide]

Wellington NZ here... one of windiest city in the world... great to see the capability of this little thing

[@169494]

I brought the Mavic Air 2 after I saw your wind test on it!! Love your wind tests!!!

[@davepearse4326]

A braver man than me. Really interesting to see how well the mini coped with that. Thanks for showing that.

[@lumbarsupport]

As a Mini 2 owner I appreciate the effort and risk put into making this video and it is useful however the biggest and most important lesson is that one more step backwards while distracted by the drone could have led to death or serious injury by skull cracking on rocks. So far I have been lucky with two narrow escapes, once with steps behind me and once with a low wall. Incredibly important to be aware of your 360 degree space if you must walk around while flying.

[@smooth_ops2942]

For such a smaller light little drone this thing is amazing really. DJI def has the drone market conquered at this point.

[@joelreyessv]

Thank you for this video, I am downgrading from the Air 2 to the Mini 2 and wind was one of my concerns but this video gave me confidence on the Mini 2. I damaged my air 2 and it was cheaper to get the mini 2 than repair it

[@sergeantbilko7070]

It has been a toss up between the Mavic Air 2 and the Mavic Mini 2 even before it was released to the public but one of the things holding me back on the Mini 2 was the wind problem but because of your video I know I have nothing to worry about there so it looks like the Mini 2 is going to win. I am perfectly happy with the 4k 30fps and have never cared much for obstacle avoidance. Awesome Possum, I'm gonna get a Mini 2!

[@Dcrainmaker]

Nice, enjoy!

[@bobbyd.6186]

I am wondering between MA2 and Mini 2. MA2 still has its advantages - shooting video in row and HDR video mode as well.

[@danjiles]

that was incredible!!! The mini survives to fly another day. Great test run in extreme conditions. Thanks for risking the drone for me to make up my mind to buy. Good Video!!!!!

[@Dcrainmaker]

Thanks!!!

[@MrKoesis]

Thank you! I already own this drone, but your video gave me a boost of confidence in unruly winds. Much appreciated!

[@johnsoncityaerialphotograp7201]

I may actually pickup a Mini 2.. I use my inspire for all the paid work and I have a Air 2 that I use for the higher bit rate 4K at times. I said previously that an Air 2, my Sony Rx100 V, and a iPad Pro were the perfect travel setup but a Mini 2 may work its way into that equation. Cheers man! I always enjoy the wind test videos. I wish I had a cool lighthouse in my area 😀

[@chantzsgarage]

This is a great video. I have a mavic mini 1 and i'm positive it would not have handled that wind nearly as good. I have had so many close calls with wind and losing connection with my mini, but I still think it is a great drone. If you want combine the better stability with Occusinc 2.0, the mini 2 is all you need if you are a novist. This video is impressive and has convinced me to upgrade.

[@bugatti314159]

Pretty impressive for a drone only slightly larger than a Tello! I think the Mini 2 will be my next drone.

[@vismaior9061]

This is exactly what I was looking for, wind resistance. Greetings from Serbia!

[@kevinshettle6007]

What an amazing drone....you pushed to its limit. Landing a helicopter with a strong tail wind can keep you very focused .....much prefer landing in to wind...the weather cock thing. Great vid...keep it up

[@jeremykamel9655]

Definitely useful. My wife is getting me the Mini 2 for Christmas. So knowing it’s capabilities are important.

[@prkchp1020]

Sitting here in the Smokey mountain mountains with about 20MPH wind gusts watching this video. Thanks. About to send it!

[@styrofoamx229]

Nice review, I got mine recently and just got my first strong wind warning and brought it back and the wind was just about 12km/h so good knowing it can handle that and much more 👍

[@thecolofthewild]

Wow. Both you and the drone did so well in those conditions. It just shows what you can do even when the wind warnings show. Useful tips on mode selection as well.

[@becksvideoproductions]

This did soooooo much better than what I expected!

[@Mounta1nKing]

I'm getting this to film adventures on my sailboat down in the Caribbean. My only worry was wind. It sort of goes with sailing. Thanks so much for doing the real tests!

Impressed by not only how well the drone flew, but that much of what you shot still looked like usable footage, which also shows how impressive the gimbal is. Oh, great piloting too!

[@paulsmyth497]

Awwww mate - that was superb. I have been dragging my heels on a starter drone, and believing (and worrying / terrified) that this drone was no good in wind, so I have been thinking about a cheapy Chinese drone (SJRC F11 4K / Holy Stone 720E) and THEN a DJI Mavic Air 2 as my final drone. This video has really created a re-think. I'm a retiring Engineer, and born again motorcyclist wanting to shoot decent footage for personal and family consumption. Now I am genuinely thinking that on a bike with the size "Packability" - THIS could be my first AND final drone in the same package. Would love your, and your viewers thoughts. Thank you mate / guys. Cheers. Paul

[@joeshmoe7967]

This is a year later but curious about your decision. I bought my Mini 2 for similar reasons, hiker, biker, motorcycler, and portability was a must. I also wanted a good stable drone that wasn't breaking the bank for a first try. My own early experience impressed me in high winds although it also frazzled my nerves!! I am no where near ready to fly under conditions as seen in this video, but it does boost confidence in the Mini 2. - Cheers
