DJI Mavic MINI Flight Test Review IN-DEPTH - How good is it...REALLY!?

[@mhobson1126]

Out of the many reviews on The Mavic Mini, this is by far the best . The reason being is that he is very clear and informative, no overload of information and he reviews the drone in the same way that most of us would use it, showing clearly the options it has and how to use them. I learned more with this review then any other, simple and to the point, no bells and whistles . Thanks a lot.

[@DustinDunnill]

This is a great comment Michael. Congrats on getting it pinned to the top of the list. 🍻

[@mhobson1126]

No worries Dunstin, keep up the great work.

[@mhobson1126]

Sorry Dustin

[@anonymous1943]

Yep, after watching his review I just bought a combo. Btw his daughter seemed like: come on dad ... don’t be childish... 😂

[@uravggamer4620]

If you are planning on buying this drone or you just picked one up, I would recommend using 1080p 60fps for almost all of your videos. The 60fps drastically improves the fluidity of the shot when rotating.

[@adamnevinsftw]

Thank you for this!

[@austinkirk8709]

Thanks for showing the controls and the interface in realtime. There's a lot of value in field testing these things and giving us the true user experience. Thank you.

[@noracline8624]

By far my favorite in testing and showing. Down to earth and LOVE the location

[@TheBranchez]

I can't believe how amazingly simple and effective this video is. You talk loud and clear and slow which is very important. Unlike a lot of people reviewing stuff on YT. You share and show important info and features, pretty much everything that matters. I like how you show the controls, what the camera is filming, the pictures, everything. I must say that the quality looks very good considering. I've never flown a drone before and want to buy this one to try it out. Has anything changed about since you've made a video? Thank you for this, a big like from me. Keep up the good work. P.S. Nice scenery and some great shots. Wish the weather was better.

[@neptunevibe]

Finally a decent review! No heavy metal intros, "buy my shitty shirt" or "this video was brought to you by cancer".. Thank you man! I'm gonna get one. The kit with 2 batteries! Cheers!

[@chris-un4rm]

Dustin keep up the excellent work .. your tutorials are probably the best out there... most guys talk about it for a minute then just fly it.. I can watch people fly anywhere... I want a true and total tutorial and that's what you provide... So don't feel bad about how long it takes because you do a true and advanced tutorial of the drone and controller which helps you not crash, lose, or destroy your drone.. if people don't mind throwing away hundreds of not thousands of dollars go ahead and watch another channel because your channel is the best I've found for drone tutorials... thank you for being so detailed in your video tutorials. 😊

[@ednolan5754]

This is probably the best beginners tutorial video I have found! I am totally new to flying drones and have had my bumps and bruises. Mostly because I tried to fly it before I educated myself. I lost my drone while flying at home ant it took me three days of looking in a tree with binoculars to locate it and finally retrieve it. After watching this video I have learned to take this more serious. This video is awesome and I will play it over and over a few more times to get used to all of the things that are needed to fly properly and then move on to more advanced flying. A must for new pilots to watch! Thank you ! ! ! !

[@nestornazario_]

Sold me on the drone. Can’t wait to buy it!

[@RealityCS]

This is the video I’ve been waiting for! Love watching these videos of yours when a new drone is out

[@knightrider3766]

NICE PRESENTATIONS, TWO YEARS AGO I PURCHASED THE MAVIC PRO , PAID $1,000, SINCE THEN, STILL HASN'T FLOWN IT, IM ANGRY BECAUSE NOW THEY DECIDED TO COME OUT WITH THIS ONE, WHICH COST MUCH LESS,I WILL GET THE MINI, HOW EVER WITH THE BULLCRAP RESTRICTIONS IN NYC, ILL PROBABLY END UP SELLING THE MAVIC PRO.....

[@logitr6000]

I love when he walks in front of the camera and goes "hey thanks guys for watching the videos I really appreciate it" that melted my heart for some reason :(

[@showmeahouse]

I'm about to buy my first drone and have been watching vids about the DJI MM for ages. I've learned more about its functionality and how to get what I'm gonna want form Dustin's film than any of the others I've watched. Well done Dustin, you're really good at this - you explain things slowly and clearly and make me feel confident that I can get my head round it. Hope DJI are looking after you, they should. Brilliant, thanks.

[@vtrmcs]

Appreciate the fact that this is a well put together review. No silly shouty voice, information presented is clear and concise. Subscribed.

[@symbiogenic]

I had no idea I needed one of these drones until I watched your review here. Also, your daughter's shyness is pretty hilarious. Good video!

[@abrahamweiss5827]

She clearly kind of likes it though because she keeps grinning and then instantly makes a sour face.

[@Nelle996]

I am seriously thinking about buying one and I'm sure it is a good entry-level drone. Perfect size, perfect price range and good for beginners! I loved the video!

[@cn8299]

I have a Mini (Convince me from one of your vids) but I still come back to watch these videos from time to time. It's such a tiny beast. I flew it in a very windy day one day to film a fallen tree on my property and it was remarkable at fighting the winds to stabilize itself. You could hardly tell that it was even affected by it.

[@dpardo74]

I listened to this review twice. Then I purchased it. Your review was honest and tested the drone in real world conditions. Two thumbs up!

[@nickbrown6916]

I have watched 15 or so reviews on this drone. Trying to decide if I want to purchase this for my first one. Most where going way to in-depth to on changing shutter speeds an other numbers to make pictures better and what not. I really don’t understand any of that thinking it was too much. Your simple click here or there to change the picture pushed me over. Great review I am going to order one today. Best review on KZbin.

[@kingtungstenworldwide4472]

The best review of a product, especially a drone, that I've watched anywhere!. Thanks so much!! I hope you get many royalties from it because I want to buy one based on this alone. It looks like a decent quality video, maybe good enough for a wedding intro? Would you agree? I never had a drone yet but given the budget, how noticeable would the video quality be compared to a $1000 or $1200 drone? Could this be enough?

[@The321asdfff]

Great review bro! Can’t wait for your range test.

Aloha from Ohio. Transplanted 75yo Hawaiian Army retiree who was born and raised on Oahu. Mahalo for this video. I've had my mini since my birthday 30 June, a gift from my #3 son and his wife. This is the most in depth information I've ever seen on the capabilities and usage of the mini for a first time user. Mahalo. Appreciate the long distance shots of Kahoolawe and Lanai, as well as the views of Maui itself

[@DustinDunnill]

Aloha braddah and mahalo for your service! Enjoy your awesome drone 🍻🤙

[@superdriver777]

This is such an awesome drone. My brother got a Phantom 3 Standard when they first came out, and we have loved it. The only gripe is the range (we have taken it over 1 mile over the ocean, but in suburban areas, it loses signal quite often). This beast exceeds [almost] all specs of the Phantom 3 Standard and does it in a tiny package, all for just $500 for the FlyMore bundle! Seriously, if you just want to fly around and take cool pictures, this is all you need. It is an impressive piece of technology.

[@mygoldfishrocks]

How far can it go out? What's the furthest range you've gotten? Thanks.

[@stephenfarrell4796]

This was a lovely honest review. I’ve been trying to decide whether to get one. This would be my first drone, only thing I was unsure of is the video quality. I think you have just made my mind up!!! It looks amazing fun Thank you mate

Great review and a great drone, I'm very surprised at how good it actually is and for such a lightweight it can handle reasonable wind gusts.

[@eddieb232]

I bought the mavic mini last wk and I love it, especially wow small and light it is and I was blown away at how good it flies in the wind. I work on the soth tip of n.j. on the ocean and it's always windy. I flew my 1st 2 drones at work, the 1st 1 is now at the bottom of the ocean and 2nd one I crashed into the building. Mavic mini is what I've should of got the 1st time. Ty for your video, it helped me learn more about the drone then I knew. Also your avic mini distance test video was great. 18,000 ft distance amazing. Didnt think were making it back home!

I have been flying RC planes and helo for about 20 years now. Quadcopters for about 5. I have had many different brands, just the cheaper ones. I just bought the Mini and flew it for the first time today. I was floored at how well it flies. DJI should pay this guy for advertising because he is the reason I bought it. I could not be happier with it. If you are on the fence, get it. You will not regret it.

finally got a mavic mini about two weeks ago and I am impressed. It feels like almost the quality of 1500 dollar drones at 1/3 the price. I have only owned toy sky viper drones before the mavic mini but have flown higher end drones my friends have and even they were impressed when I showed up with the mini. Bad to fly in dark conditions though because it is very lightly lit to save weight. The battery life is great but I only get about 24 minutes instead of 27 because I like to move it at full speed a lot.
