DJI Mini 4K, Drone with Camera 4K Professional, Under 249 g, 3-Axis Gimbal Stabilization, 10km Video Transmission, Auto Return, Wind Resistance, 31-Min Max Flight Time, Intelligent Flight

My first drone. Very impressed. Video footage is amazing quality. Doesn’t go anywhere near the distance claimed, though there are plenty of trees where I am. I guess this blocks the signal earlier but really I’m not even getting 1km before it loses contact with controller. I suppose the real test would be sending it out to sea while standing on beach. In reality there will always be serious obstructions on land. So claims of 10km to 20km seem ridiculous to me. Also be aware, you need a memory card (the tiny one). It doesn’t come with one which seems a bit mean. I also recommend paying the extra and getting the three-battery charger etc (the extra £99 accessory package). The battery does not last long. Incredibly still no memory card included in this. Again even if you could fly it 10km +, it’s gonna run out of battery probably well before getting back. That said, this is excellent. Easier to get going from zero knowledge than anticipated though I did watch a couple of vids of guys flying this drone. If you’re a newbie, take it steady and fly it quite high. If it crashes into anything you aren’t getting it back!

Over the years I’ve had cheap model aircraft including helicopters and found them frustratingly difficult to fly. I looked at various drones on YouTube and it was clear that cheaper drones all seem to have ‘issues’ such as poor stability or mediocre cameras. The DJI Mini 4k seemed to be the exception.I’ve now flown mine several times over the past few weeks clocking up approximately 10 miles flown, and have been amazed. The drone is well built and so easy to fly. The video and photo quality is simply unsurpassed for the price. The controller is solid and precise, and the built in safety features (ability to set height and distance, return to home) just provides an overall confidence boost in the equipment.Although the Mini 4k is under 250g you must obtain an Operator ID from the CAA (£11.13 in 2025 and renewable annually) or you risk prosecution .The CAA also advise getting a Flyer ID which is free valid for 5 years. This involves a short course and a test requiring an 80% scores (it’s pretty basic stuff and you can retake as often as needed). There are proposals to make Operator and Flyer IDs mandatory and the introduction of Remote ID for all drones over 100g from Jan 2026 - the CAA website has more information.Overall, a great piece of kit and highly recommended.

I Was between this one and a rival companies drone when researching which was the best to get and I absolutely made the right choice with the Mini 4K. Perfect for either a first time flyer or an intermediate user and super easy to get up and running and control in the air. Was surprised how small it was when I first saw it, but that’s a real advantage. Build quality is exceptional and if you can stretch to the flymore kit, then do it. It’s extremely good value for money. Bonus that it’s lightweight, as under 249 grams has less restriction for use. Would 100% recommend this drone. I really can’t find negatives with it.

This drone exemplifies the advances that have been made in tech over the past few years. Relatively inexpensive, light (less than the regulatory 250g for registration), and oh, so stable. Controls are simple to learn and configurable to your preference, and the app is fairly intuitive. Works well with Samsung S22 Ultra attached.Picture quality is superb. Battery life more than adequate, shame they are quite expensive though. Overall, this does exactly what I need it to do, which is a little bit of everything.I've had one scare with it. Taking an extended family outdoor photo, I ascended the drone above the treeline, not realising how windy itwas. The wind caught the drone and I began to lose control. The display warned me to lose altitude in order to regain control, which I duly did. After a few tense moments, the drone managed to make some headway back to where we were and landed safely. I reckon the wind was approaching 20kts, so well outside its design limits. Lesson learnt!

It's a great drone for a beginner, but the advertising is a bit misleading - the EU and UK are subject to CE standards as opposed to FCC, and transmission strength is much lower, so there's no way it can achieve the advertised range in the UK. Slightly disappointing it starts to lose signal at 600m in a clear area. Other than that, it's simple to operate and the camera is really good for an amateur/beginner.

Really fun and great experience. Would purchase a more premium model if I knew that double the money would buy a much better item from DJI. Still, Great Quality and solid build! Good for beginners!

Very Good! Bought it for recreational use but I don't see why this would not be able to be used for professional purposesIt has Ground avoidance so you don't accidently fly into a tree underneath you its easy to control and does not fly/drift away in the wind it charges from 0 to full in about 1.2 hours with a flight time of about 18 minuets depending on the quality you are filming in another plus is the drone is sturdy and includes a new set of propellers

“The DJI Mini 4K drone is an absolute delight! With its compact design and impressive 4K video capabilities, it’s perfect for capturing stunning aerial footage on the go. The drone’s stability, ease of use, and intelligent features make it an excellent choice for both beginners and seasoned drone enthusiasts.”
