DJI Mini 4 Pro Budget Accessories - Are They Actually Good?

[@BIGPAPAFOOT]

That megaphone is EXTREMELY fun. I flew it around on my DJI Mini 4 pro. I have MANY items from StartRc. I've been very happy overall with the quality and fun of the items. The LED props are fun, I had them on for a week or so. Only 1 drawback is that you can not fold your mini 4 down for storage. The air drop kit is really cool! Btw funny thing was . You put triple props in the dji case 😂😂😂

[@baronlund9725]

Ah, but the message came across.

[@51Drones]

Winner winner chicken dinner! 😂

[@BIGPAPAFOOT]

@@51Drones I'm excited to rock my new 51 drones hat. 😀

[@CheeseheadMedia]

At 3:55 when you are talking about adding extra propellers to the hard case for the Mini 3/Mini 3 Pro/Mini 4 Pro the extra propellers you are putting in the case are for the Avata 2. What I enjoy about your videos is that you are not afraid to tell the bad things along with the good. Way too many people who do product reviews will never criticize a product with a fear they won't get anymore "free stuff". You're honest and that means a lot to me as a viewer.

[@PatricksDIY]

Lol the triple propellors HAS to be the funny thing you did. Great Video!

[@RONALDSCHULTE]

I have been using the startrc case since the mini 4 came on the market and am still very satisfied. The drone and controller is well protected and all the necessary accessories fit in it perfectly. The case also regularly goes with me in my bicycle bag and I've never had any problems with it. For the money, a top product.

[@openskyphotography]

I think the storage underneath the drone is for props, etc., and that longer, thinner space is for your filters case.

[@LarryChase-of8fx]

Will the Sun Hood fit in the Simic Hard-side Waterproof Case? The propeller you put in @ the 4:13 mark seems a bit wonky? I am building a checklist as I brought a full SanDisk last week.

[@jasonk9779]

I actually prefer the soft foam on the StartRC cases, have a couple now, including this one. I have no fears of anything getting damaged :)

[@RonaldBrown59]

Most of the StartRC products that I have tried are well worth the money spent. Especially there hard cases, for the low price you pay for them, there pretty hard to beat. Great video Russ, and thanks for sharing.

[@theoh6260]

Great video. Thanks. Just quick question, how to you feel about buying direct from DJI or from outside dealers? The wait time from DJI can be long.

[@TheRickyFleming]

Hi, Great video as usual. Will the remote sun shade cover fit ion the SYMIK P330 case?

[@RobsTubeTV]

I actually just got the sun shade cover for the DJI RC. The only grip I have is that the hinge feels cheap and probably will fail or at least wear out and stop clicking into positions.

[@Viper1171]

Thank you for sharing with us the correct Sandisk micro card to use for 4k 60/100 & hyper lapse usage, much appreciated since I just bought my drone 2 days ago and ran to see what Sandisk micro card I got. Thank God it was the Sandisk Extreme Pro 512GB as you mentioned. 👍

[@eptexan915]

Does the strobe effect the video please post video 3:20

[@thatsaloadofcrap]

Thanks, I've watched several of you videos. BUT! please add Chapter markers. Especially on vids like this with multiple items of discussion.

[@haikalazhar9539]

Great vid. I think there are few things I caught you did: 1. You used a wrong prop for the demo, shown is the Mini 4/3 drone but put a 3 bladed prop 2. Fumbled whilst folding the RC2 antenna (Not sure) 3. Inserted the SD card wrong way around the first time

[@mfekeza]

Nice videos, as usual, man! You helped me alot starting my drone journey! 💪

[@FujiboHeavy]

Thanks for the review! I was eyeing up the Startrc case as well, but ended up going with Symik based off your recommendation

[@Diantane]

I bought that case right after getting the Mini 4 Pro. It took about 3 weeks to get it as everything was new. Also ordered the case for the Avata 2 (again 3 weeks). I prefer cases to those DJI bags

[@TheFandangovideoguy]

Is the strobe light for low light flying the best solution? I don't fly it at night but sometimes it's hard to see the drone against a grey sky...I saw a landing gear with lights and I guess if I aim the camera straight down then it will catch some of the light? Not sure if there is something newer now. I have the MIni 4 pro drone.

[@iverhaug8031]

Hey, i have a question for you. Last year I got my hands on the mini 2 se and it’s been great. But I am thinking of upgrading to a more capable/more fun drone. The options I am considering right now are between the Air 3/mini 4 pro, Avata 2 or wait for the Air 3s. I have had some fun with the mini but it looks so fun to fly and fpv drone. I would like to get your opinion on which drone you would recommend😄

[@LouisD2023]

Great video. Lots of cool accessories. Not something you did, but was still funny to see your cat peak in the door @8:03

[@51Drones]

😅

[@billrenfro2790]

I picked up the sun hood for my air3, works and looks good. 😎

[@Diantane]

Buying the goggles and motion controller for the Mini 4 Pro isn’t exactly budget @ $800, but there is a much better way. I bought the Xreal Air 2 Pro AR glasses. They plug directly into your RC 2 controller and you see a 200 inch screen with incredible detail. You can also use it for watching movies or playing games on the pc. Can also connect to smartphone and iPad

[@PortugalCarp]

@51Drones Another great video, thanks for posting. I have a question, with that sunshade fitted, will the controller fit into the Symik P330 case?

[@RVingwithG]

I think the true shenanigans was you put the strobe light on the back of the drone…? I thought it needed to be on top of the Drone😮 And of course the tri-props that you stuck in the case. 😊💚💚💚💚💚💚

[@stuartmeek763]

Great video again, i actually already purchased the case.. as you said the foam isn’t the best, which is why for my other drones i went with Lekeufee cases which have the best foam and the prices are really competitive….. i will be purchasing the screen cover for my screen displays… like you tho i use a screen with my mini 4(iPad mini)… I haven’t found issue with the cards as you have tho, but have gone to the extreme pro cards.. offer was buy 4 get 5% off for me..

[@seanr10]

Love your videos. I did the same wirh my Mavic 3. Had the wrong SD card in the machine and it sure didn't like it!

[@wildlifesnapper1]

I use the ViFly which is an excellent quality strobe, not sure of its avaiability in the USA but its very popular here in England. The startRc case is identical to other cases from other brands so I'm guessing that StartRc do not manufacture them but simply add their name to the product?

[@OVRCOME]

Picked me up a Memory card from your link! Thanks man!!

[@peterjb49]

Very interesting products, glad I checked in today!

[@karlbecker8775]

I have that case, and it is amazing for the money! I paid $35 for mine a few months ago.

[@techlifebio]

Thanks for the info about the card speeds. Funny thing, I just upgraded from my Mavic Mini to Mini 4 Pro, and according to DJI, Samsung Evo Plus which I have, is fast enough, and I have Sandisk Extreme (not pro) is faster so I figured the Extreme would be suitable, but going by your test it's not. So to be on the safe side I will get the Extreme Pro instead. Mini 4 Pro max video bitrate is 150MB/s which is still faster than the Extreme Pro write speed but not by much and probably buffering will be enough to even out the write.

[@Roys_Drones]

thanks for the informative video...

[@Jbrooks585]

[@shsechas]

Sup Russ. Don't have the M4P, but the M3P with the RC. Like your videos, so here for support.

[@judgehastheword9069]

Captain drone had Master Airscrew Props on his channel like 2 weeks ago I ordered them for my DJI Mini 3 Pro different colors. I tried them I was amazed with the sound how much quit they are. They are not high priced. I like the bright colors you can see the drone so much better. I am going to check on the carrying case for the mini 3 pro. An the sun visor to. I wish the remote for the mini 3 pro had Antenna's for it. Wouldn't that make it go out farther with out losing signal with the antennas? I wanted to ask to the goggles for the mini 3 pro with the antennas would help with getting a better signal at a farther distance?? Hope you can help me with this??

[@51Drones]

Not any better signal.

[@judithwebber2102]

Great video with great info. Thx

[@DeltaMartian]

I don’t see your hat on your website. Do you sell them individually?

[@Zimmir]

great video, I can't wait to buy a triple blade for my dji mini 4 pro hahaha!

[@LIVINGINFARGO]

You stick the strobe light under or above a mini 4 pro?

[@marcopolozx11]

Bought the hard case for my Mini 3. Awesome case, but kind of cumbersome compared to the original fly more soft bag.

[@Magic4drone]

Love your videos. Interesting

[@jimwilliams7136]

The sun hood won't fit if you have the silicone protective cover on your RC controller.

[@CaliforniaPhantom]

What about the year of free DJI refresh Russ? For Anker you said 45 buck instead of 45 water, but corrected yourself.

[@whitewaterrockhoppingnorwa9602]

I think you need more avata props in that case, just in case you bring it along. Two is not enough.

[@OTPFrodo]

I have the sun hood, excellent product for the $$. Especially the fact that I don't need to drop, I mean, unscrew and store the joysticks. 😂

[@LIVINGINFARGO]

Where should I install the strobe light on a mini 4 pro? Is it for a manned aircraft above to see , or for other drone operators on the ground to see?

[@51Drones]

It’s for manned aircraft. It’s best to place it on top.

[@nickrich710]

Would you recommend the battery for the DJI mini 4 pro the battery 51 minutes

[@RRRobbie-ee9dw]

Why did U put a 3 way prop in your box lol 😆💚🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@BAMDrones-MichaelBelshe]

You put the drone down with the camera lens facing down! What are you doing? 😂 Your videos are always very informative, thank you for all you do!

[@davidward1224]

You put 3 bladed props into the slot when descirbing the case while suggesting the slot was to store props for the Mini 3 Pro.

[@nuthn2do]

You need to be careful selecting a charger, it needs to have oem data on outputs if it has more than one. Some multi ports are only about 70% PD usb-c and 30% usb-a output of claimed watts and that's if you only use one at a time

[@wingrovedl]

Three bladed props into a two bladed drone box. Not really gonna work for backups. I'm not the first, but I deserve a hat too ! lol lol lol 🤓

[@gordonbarbay750]

This is not an endorsement or anything, but just a FYI, StartRC does also have a dual layer hard case. It is the exact same price as the Symic.

[@51Drones]

Thanks for the info. I will check it out!

[@possumlips]

Anybody know where I can get a hard case for my M4P that has a spot for my Integra goggles and RC2 motion controller also?

[@wembley636]

Anything that adds weight to the Mini 4 Pro could push it over the sub 250g weight, meaning here in the UK you would need a CAA license and be restricted on where you can fly (dramatically), you need to state this.

[@thecorporategypsy]

I don’t fly at night but do need help finding the drone in the sky. The belly light on the mini 4 pro is ok but not sufficient once up at 150+ feet. Does this strobe make it more visible in the day?

[@51Drones]

Not really. You almost need like 4 of them to really make a difference in daytime visibility.

[@thecorporategypsy]

@@51Drones thank you thats helpful

[@OpsPt5]

You put the antennas on the RC3 down in the wrong order.

[@pslaathaug]

you tied to fold the RC2 antennas the wrong way lol. (thats my guess)

[@alexanderdavis8691]

Bought a DJI drone after your previous video haha

[@jonahkaiguam]

You put the Mini 4 pro down and the gimbal is facing downward at the table....could possibly scratch the lens

[@stewcoil2481]

I accidently did an intersection on slow-motion instead of hyper-lapse. Not very interesting. I would think hyper-lapse would have no problem saving a frame every couple seconds or so with a slower SD card.

[@bentonthurmond8609]

Need a 100 watt charger for dji air 3

[@jonahkaiguam]

I use the Anker 737...it's 120W and it charges my Mavic 3 batts fast as heck

[@w.e.s.]

Anker 30 bucks

[@classicroger]

It's good, but I just ordered the Power 1000. As soon as the Mavic 3 cable is back in stock, I'll order a couple of them.

[@irvingbergeron991]

U said 1006 instead of 1066 on the learning card

[@skycam509]

So, Russ... the primary message about StartRC is that they make cut-rate gear that is just now becoming somewhat usable, and you're going to put their props on your drone? Borrow a drone from Ken and try them on on his first. I'd recommend flying over water. Be sure to get video! Thanks for this video. 😉

Hey Russ, Great video! I've recently started selling a 3D printed DJI Mini 2 handheld gimbal converter (The most recent upload on my channel), and I was wondering if you would be interested in trying it out. It's designed to convert your drone into a handheld camera effortlessly. If you're up for it, I'd be happy to send one over for you to test and give your opinion on. Let me know if you're interested!😀

[@brandon9689]

NGL I kind of regret spending the extra money on the RC2. I've had my Mini 4 barely 2 months and already it's getting pretty slow. I've had a few times that it takes literal minutes to boot up and other times I'm in camera view in 30-45 seconds. Unless your phone is broken or horribly outdated just save yourself the money and use the RC-N2 with your phone.
