@@LensOfJames BTW your videos are quite professionally done. Lack a bit of humor perhaps. Here is an idea. Make a 'local adventure' video with the cheapest equipment you can find. Still OK for YT of course. For example my L200 Pro Max drone is €90! Not saying it is as good as the DJI Mini 4k. But the video is definitely good enough. Then cheap action cam or camera or phone. Budget vlogging for poor folks! Then compare it with more expensive cameras. Same adventure. Or you could even do a third video with total crap for the fun of it. €20 drone, €15 camera. Because if there is one thing I hate it is idiots calling a €1000 DJI Mini 4 Pro a beginner drone. This Mini 4k is amazing value for money. Keep checking when Maven, Litchi, or Dronelink will become compatible. Because in my mind a DJI with one of those third aprty apps is actually better than a Mini 4 Pro without. Especially the GPS follow-me feature is superior to DJI's optical tracking when driving a van!

Thank You James ! I had a Mini 2 a few years ago. Looking to get another Drone. Not sure if they will be banned here in the USA soon. I was looking at the Mini 4 Pro and the Air 3. I hate to spend that much on a drone since my Mini 2 was perfect for me. I don't use waypoints, tracking, or any of them options. A mini is a little to much for just a few upgrades from the Mini 2. Mini 3 Pro would be the same price as a Mini 4 Pro. I looked at this Mini 4k before but came back to it again. Would be an exact replacement for my Mini 2 which I really enjoyed and learned to fly. I don't need Obstacle avoidance or any of them features. I looked and somehow found on the DJI website here in the US the Mini 4k Fly More Kit for $289.99 ! I think for what I use the drone for and the amount of time I would use it the Mini 4k will be perfect. Thanks for showing all the options in the fly app.
