DJI Mini 4K Introduction and Unboxing Plus a look at previous DJI Mini Drones - Part 1

[@Abdssmd_15]

Im watching Drone Videos since quite a few weeks. Stumbled upon your Channel some 30 Minutes ago. Youre a very sympatic guy. Wish you the best, greetings from Germany

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you so much!

[@OriginalSniperLol]

just ordered it 😊 i used to own the SE but I sold it a while ago and I regret it. so now i’m ordering the mini 4K WOOHOO. good vid

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

You're going to love it! Have fun!

[@johnk7649]

Very nice, Marcus! Damn, you certainly do have the "complete" arsenal of DJI Mini drones!!!!

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Oh yes, we need our drones! 🙂

[@jrdc6603]

I just purchased the single battery versión, the toys for my old days, i`m in my 62 now. I will regret have a single battery, since in my country the customs don't allow enter batteries. If it cames with the device since to be no problem (hope so), but i think a sole battery will be a problem, and i can´t purchase some extra with the customs regulations. Thank you for be so instructive, i will learn everthing about this new drone by you and others videos untill i got mine. I can´t wait (at least 25 days from now). Greetings from Santa Rosa-La Pampa-Argentina.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I'll bet there are some wonderful places to fly in the La Pampa Province. Yes, you'll want more batteries. 😄

[@exploringwithjohnny6947]

thank you marcus .in joy watching .wish good weekend

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Johnny!

[@larryhammelman3424]

Nice video Marcus, and perfect timing. I was flying the other day and neighbor dropped by and wanted me to help him get him started in drones. This looks like a good starting point. Thanks for the info.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you, I'm glad I could help! The Mini 4K is a great way to get started in the hobby.

[@philipchura7139]

Great video, as usual. Very informative. Thanks for all your great learning tools.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thanks again Phil! I so appreciate it.

[@derekpask3633]

I hope you enjoyed doing that mini 4 review, you should! I know now that that will be my recommendation, in future. The mini 4 sounds a nice one. Thank you.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Derek! The Mini 4K is a winner!

[@JohnnieDroneFlyer]

Looks like another great drone from DJI. Good Job Marcus.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

DJI builds a great drone Mr. Johnnie!

[@RonaldBrown59]

Great first look and unboxing of the new Mini 4k drone, I mean the Ron Mini 4k drone. And I'm looking forward to the test flight video. I believe the MIni 2 was a standard kit price was $449 on release date. Thanks for sharing, and naming the new drone after me.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Ron! The little drone flew great, and the video quality was really good!

[@treynolds94]

Never fails just got the 2 se last week and of course a 4k version of it comes out a week later at the same price. 😅 Thats okay absolutely lovin it. Just about to take some videos of spots around my city here in a few minutes.

[@dakundi]

i bought my mini 2 se in 28.03.2024 ... :)

[@treynolds94]

@@dakundi such a cool piece of tech. Have flown everyday multiple times since getting her. Have some amazing shots but still working on controls and video moves since Iam still a new flyer I alway hesitate when trying to circle something screws me up and have to move on. Still scared to lolse it since it has been exactly one week. I have had it out 2 kms at 500m with no issue watching over the city from my backyard. After 2km with all the houses building signal gets low I knkw it will return to home but still working on that trust.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I hear you! The Mini 2 SE is still a great drone! 🙂

[@montezchaseparker]

Same here... I got my 2 se and then this happens, no matter I am loving my bird

[@dakundi]

the difference is only in the camera. And it is not very big!

[@georgekelly1948]

Thanks for the intro, Marcus.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

It's my pleasure George!

[@julianperry1406]

Thanks for the detailed description. Can you please tell me if my Mini 1 batteries will fit the Mini 4K? I have four of them I don’t wan to scrap.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you! Yes, you can use your Mavic Mini batteries in the Mini 4K, but the Mini 4K batteries will not fit the Mavic Mini. You will see marginally less performance. 👍

[@stevealbin8257]

Great video Marcus. Very cool drone.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you! I agree, it's a good one!

[@tabadrone]

Very nice. Complete. Liked

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@hamradiobasics]

Well done Marcus ! Introducing the "Ron Mini 4K". Best drone one the market. Heard it does exceptionally well on sunsets lol !

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Ha! True enough Bill! It excels at sunsets! 🙂

[@sxmindian]

Was waiting for your review of the Mini 4K.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I hope to get out and fly it today.

[@SleekHobbies88]

Awesome review Marcus, definitely Kool new Ron 4k Mini absolute epic

great footage Sir.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thanks for the visit Henry!

[@Randomentertainmentz]

Nice unboxing review. I'm waiting for the full flight review to get one as my backup drone. As promised I'm waiting. Nice information at it best. Stay strong and safe all the time sir

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Welbeck! I'll post the flight video soon!

Hi Marcus I want you to try this pairing with RC controller if it will work Welbeck here again Thanks Sir

[@JohnAbbottinkettering]

mine came from Amazon yesterday, and..could't wait to have a go,......so 3 visits to car park to get the feel, then went into some fields today, very nervous though, so stupidly took it up high, so high i couldn't see it, panick sets in.......oh god ive lost it, but then i thought, press the return button......phew......that was lucky,.......then, took some 100 mt high photos of the valley i live by, then tried the video,.....but......when home the photos turned out fantastic, BUT no video,.....god knows what i did wrong, Will have to read up tonight before i drive to London. thanks for your video sir

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

That's odd that you didn't get any video. It's a great little drone! Enjoy it!

[@kodak_jack]

Nice intro video. Does it have the pan and 180 photo modes to do panoramic shots for you like the mini2 SE?

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Yes, it sure does!

[@chriswhite58]

Great video.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Chris!

[@Pooroljc]

I have had Autel's for years, but I get disappointed when they don't carry replacement batteries for my older models, so I'm done with them. Switching to DJI as soon as I get done with my comment. I hope I don't regret it. Thank you so much for the video. Thanks again.. JC

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

DJI does a great job, there's no question about it. 👍

[@GorillamansGarage]

You have all the DJI Mini series... Do you have a side by side chart of specs? What is the difference between the Mini 4k & the Mini 2?

[@stevesshotts]

Hey Marcus... are the Mini 4K and the Mini 2se batteries interchangeable? BTW, another GR8 vid! Looking forward to the flight footage.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Yes they are. In fact the original Mavic Mini batteries are different, but the others in the series are the same.

[@MH-5274]

Nice video. U said u have the newer iPhone does it detect for remote ID like drone scanner like a Samsung phone does?

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

The drone scanning apps only work on Android phones. 👍

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you for stopping by!

[@Birdie284]

Great videos! How many meters can it safely fly away in distance (in your line of sight of course)?

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I'm not sure, that is very subjective.

[@Birdie284]

@@IdahoQuadcopter what’s the furthest you ever went comfortably distance wise with the mini 4K?

[@B8rl1g3a]

Hey Marcus, can you please tell me if the battery from the mini 2 fits into the mini 4k? I have a mini 2 fly more combo and want to buy just the single mini 4k and was wondering if I can use the batteries from my mini 2. Thanks

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

They should interchange just fine. 👍

[@TaiKamiya101]

Does the 4K mini use the same type of batteries as the SE Mini? I lost my mini SE drone a couple of months back but I had the fly more combo for it so I assume I can use the other two batteries for the 4K mini right?

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Yes, the same batteries for both drones. You're good to go.

[@TaiKamiya101]

@@IdahoQuadcopter Thanks for letting me know. I just got my drone the other day and it is amazing. Off to London to fly it soon!

[@brucedon1951]

Marcus what is the differents on the controller is it good for 4 or 6 hours fully charged Thanks

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I'm not sure what the battery life of the controller is? I seldom let mine get down below 1/2 charge.

[@walker-snow]

They should enable 4K recording and 2.7K 60fps for Mini 2 SE too with an update. It has the same hardware and camera.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I've heard it's a different chipset.

[@brucedon1951]

Marcus What is the differents do you see on the camera housing on the Mini 4k the reason Im asking the filters that work on the Mini 2 and the Mini 2se will not work on the Mini 4k Thanks!

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

They're the same. I'm sure the Mini 2 filters will work. 👍

Is the battery for the Mini 4K compatible with any of the other mini drones?

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Yes, in the Mini 2 and Mini 2 SE. 👍

[@ThatRblxNerd1]

I wish I had a drone I’m currently saving up for one but it’ll take me a long time I’m 11 and my mom can’t afford one also I’m fond in drones and I like watching you

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you! Drones are a lot of fun!

[@shapethefuturetech6005]

What's the difference between the mini 4k and mini 2?

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

They're essentially the same. The Mini 2 has a light on the front. The big news is the price of the Mini 4K.

[@TaniaGail]

Ha! I knew you were going to pick up this drone :)

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Oh of course! 😄

[@mhmphotography400]

Marcus what transmission does this run on ?

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

It's an occusync 2 drone.

[@sxmindian]

After a firmware update the Mini 2 offered 60fps @ 2.7K.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you! I was too lazy to fire up my Mini 2 to check. 😄

[@bobshindorf5736]

Best Buy not just yet

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Yes, I just looked. It says it won't ship from Bestbuy until mid-May. 👍

[@larkinsen]

So practically they've resurected the Mini 2. :))

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

That's about right, but at a better price. 🙂

[@hoody2141]

Are you able to connect fpv googles to this drone?

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Box goggles maybe, but not DJI goggles.

Hi Marcus, nice video overview of the DJI beginner drones. I am going to name my new Fimi Mini 3 after you, Marcus. Don't hate me. vbg

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Ha! I hope that Fimi Mini 3 is the best mini drone ever. 😄

[@marcelomunoz3330]

What is the maximum altitude, I have heard that it only flies at a maximum of 120 meters

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I'll never know. I never fly above 120 meters. 🤷‍♂️

[@marcelomunoz3330]

Hello, maybe I formulated my question wrong. In the maximum altitude configuration of DJI Fly it only allows 120 meters or it can be increased to 500 meters like other DJI drone models

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

@@marcelomunoz3330 I don't know. I wonder if DJI publishes it in their specs. It would be the same as the Mini 2 SE.

Hey Marcus Crawford

[@fromabove2024]

DJI mini 4k or Potensic Atom 4k 🤔🤔

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

It depends on your use case. The Atom has more features, the Mini 4K has better video quality.

[@stevewick1]

Is the video significantly better on the DJI? I just bought the Potensic, mainly because of the possible DJI ban.

[@dronejourneynz]

My original Mini 2 shoots 2.7k 60fps

Thank you! I couldn't remember.

You cannot buy this drone …. in Canada at this point. You’ll only seen this on US Amazon and US BestBuy. And EU Amazon.
