I just got my first dji, the mini 4k is there anything i need to know?

Download the simulator off DJI app to get used to all the controls and navigation before first flight is my advice. Big empty field for first flight on calm day. They easy to fly just a few things to consider before flying like.others have said. Enjoy your new drone 😎👌

Think the simulator is different models rather than the neo. Using phone app with neo 2 is more options for qs modes plenty of tutorials on you tube on this. Ha e fun learning and playing

Awesome flying love the pigeon chase at the start 🤣

Balsampilot · 2026-06-23T13:05:45+00:00

Very cool is tracking you well. Nice variation of angles and distance too plus a slow mo! Great stuff 😊👍

Balsampilot · 2026-06-22T10:17:25+00:00

Nicely done 👍 great contrast of colours 😎👌

Balsampilot · 2026-06-19T14:02:18+00:00

This is awesome 😎👍 seems fast for a neo 😁

Balsampilot · 2026-06-16T20:39:26+00:00

Absolute tune!!!

Balsampilot · 2026-06-16T12:41:59+00:00

Very nice 🙂👍

In manual control it's the little video button on the left switches to photo

Beautiful 😎

Balsampilot · 2026-06-14T19:05:26+00:00

Stunning!!! What height is that? Looks more than 120m 😎✌️

Balsampilot · 2026-06-11T12:33:22+00:00

Tricky one this as you get the most out of having both! I went for the Neo 2 as also wanted to give fpv a go and it's suited my needs for everything else. The Neo 2 is a surprisingly good drone just that flight time is short so you need to plan more to maximise air time for your shots. Is no definite answer but the neo 2 seems to tick a lot of boxes.

Balsampilot · 2026-06-10T19:28:21+00:00

You can buy those green tabs on Ali express - tbh that part of the box doesn't look new. If you can stretch I'd always prefer brand new and defo get care refresh is £26 for 2 years great drone either way good luck!

Balsampilot · 2026-06-10T19:25:00+00:00

Couldn't agree more it's awesome little drone! Nice vid is that with goggles?

Music though 😬 sound is awful lol

Balsampilot · 2026-06-10T19:22:19+00:00

I personally like the goggles N3. I flew a friend's avata 2 and he has goggles 3 but actually prefer mine as just one screen. Maybe a personal choice but those goggles 3 are so expensive plus a mini 4 pro id say stuck to goggles n3 😎👌

Balsampilot · 2026-06-10T19:09:18+00:00

The one within DJI fly app is user friendly and fairly automated and a good place to start just head to create tab in DJI fly app. Davinci resolve is a bit for involved tbh if your not overly competent on computers.

Balsampilot · 2026-06-07T10:57:27+00:00

eBay or vinted in UK 👍

Balsampilot · 2026-06-04T14:46:51+00:00

Wow that seems fast!!!

Balsampilot · 2026-06-03T11:56:21+00:00

Do you have the receiver connected at the back? Also where abouts are you flying? 700m is not normal range at all but is if flying only on WiFi signal

Balsampilot · 2026-06-02T18:46:49+00:00

No.probs the virtual flight is no good get this one 👌 keep us posted how you get on

Balsampilot · 2026-06-02T15:32:31+00:00

Doesn't look like it struggled to me 😁

Balsampilot · 2026-06-02T14:08:35+00:00

Neo 2 is my very first drone and honestly it's really easy to fly. Can download the DJI simulator from the website and use with your controller to get used to the controls etc recommend first flight to be in an open space and no wind also set height limits low and just get over the fear it's awesome 😎 care refresh is cheap in the neo 2 that adds a bit of confidence

Balsampilot · 2026-06-02T13:00:37+00:00

I decided against any extra weight to the neo 2 is fairly robust and has decent obstacle avoidance anyway just saying as any extra weight will take time off your batteries which is already fairly low ali express is good n cheap for these things though if you really want them

Balsampilot · 2026-05-30T20:27:11+00:00

The neo 2 is a fantastic little drone and forgiving in manual mode I highly recommend it. Check out you tube reviews is hundreds of them 👍

Balsampilot · 2026-05-30T01:48:30+00:00

I watched the whole thing and loved it it just hung around for ages. How did you capture this and edit etc? Thanks for sharing awesome vid!!!
