DJI Mini 4 Pro Fly More Combo with DJI RC 2 (screen remote controller), Folding Mini-Drone with 4K HDR Video Camera for Adults, Under 0.549 lbs/249 g, 34-Min Flight Time, 2 Extra Batteries

I started with a Ryze Tello tiny drone and then bought one of the £200 bigger nondescript brand ones to give me more options in wind. That drone was decent but I did crash it a few times which was annoying. The controller was my mobile and the range was limited.I am heading abroad so I decided to take the plunge with a 'proper' entry model. This has the benefit of being <249g using stock batteries so doesn't need to get involved with complicated rules and regs, easy to transport being folded up to the size of a small fist. The controller is brilliant with no need for a phone to run, and no interruptions from calls or messages. I have tested it and so far in our confined space it works well. On take-off it rises and stays still, when you release the joysticks it stays still and it has obstacle avoidance which works very well (apart from telephone lines!).I will hopefully get lots of hassle-free footage from my holiday which will justify the price. The test footage I have so far is excellent, 4k 60fps video and 48Mp stills. It's mostly avoiding crashing and the controls seem very intuitive. I have watched lots of beginner videos and now will get lots of real-world practice.I'm taking 2 x 256Gb SD cards which should hold around 8 hours plus of footage, and transfer to my phone or tablet is relatively painless. The 3 batteries should give me enough for each trip out, and I have the phone and GoPro to play with as well.Despite the class C0 small restrictions (keep in sight, not > 120m away, not over crowds etc..) I have done the CAA flight test and got my operator ID which I recommend. Insurance for such a pricy 'toy' isn't that expensive either for when you aren't in familiar surroundings.

Just starting out, I did loads of research to make sure to get the best drone for me. This is absolutely the one any body should have. Seemed a bit small and flimsy at first but it is robust under normal conditions.Good looking. Good battery life and you can purchase more. Really good omni directional sensors to help avoid collisions. Lots of extras you can buy too if you really need them.I was impressed with the image quality and the frame size can be adjusted from wider angle 16:9 or 4:3 etc. I like that you can take both stills and video. Very stable in flight when its not too windy. It's pretty easy to use and there's a flight simulation app available to help you learn.Easily portable and can put it in the shoulder bag provided. Less than 250g so fewer restrictions, but you need to read the rules and register first with CAA anyway. Can be used for fun or more seriouslyand glad I bought it.

Mind blowing device. Very easy to use. Fantastic resolution video and images. Amazing anti-crash facility. Delicate device. 30min or so flight time per battery can be an inconvenience. Love it.

DJI showed again they can build great drone that is easy to fly and has many many useful features. Clear instructions and application to download helps a lot. Really good quality. So easy to transfer files to your phone and to share . The best drone under 249g , video quality is outstanding, same with pictures. Control pad very easy to operate and you can change the modes. With combo you get 3 batteries altogether, one on the drone and two spare ones with a charger. Plus you get a bag to carry. Good value.

It's a fantastic drone, probably the best one for the money.,but the first time I did the follow me function it crashed into a lamp post due to the ambiont light but it states that the drone can fly in day or night. So Ave now got a broken drone that cost nearly £1000, dji have offered me to send the drone to them and they will fix it for me. Don't know if they will charge me or not, but if they do I garentee it won't be cheap....!
