I was flying yesterday after work and was just thinking how amazing my little drone was. It's so relaxing flying after work, watching my phone screen with crystal clear image of something way out from where I am sitting. It's just amazing. The only drone I had before the Mini was the Tello which I loved flying. I sold that to get the Mini. I'm looking at selling my Mini to get the Mavic Air 2, a guy at work wants to buy it once he saw how it flies and the pics I was getting with it. It's just an amazing bit of technology and such a great hobby taking pics of everything from above.
Anyhow cheers DJI, your products are amazing...

It's very addictive - you're hooked and good for you. You'll be flying an Inspire 2 at this rate buddy.

Hahaha no I don't think so, but I guess anything is possible!! It's just such a cool hobby. I love it. The only problem is all you ever think about is where and when you can fly, like 24/7. It's so addictive... I see you have almost every drone they have ever made. Incredible collection!

Thats the next step - buying and selling them... My only advice I'll give you at this stage is when you get the MA2 - keep it, continue to enjoy flying with it and don't fall into the trap of chasing the latest and greatest. I only have the MA2 now - all the rest have been sold but I learnt a lot flying each one when I had it - from the Spark through to the old Inspire 1 V2.0.

Yeah that's why I decided I would sell the Mini and upgrade to the Air 2. I think with the Air 2 I doubt I would fly the Mini much anyway...

All the batteries to maintain and firmware updates and calibrations etc  - one is enough for me these days.

Nothing like the thrill & excitement of a bit of aerial action!

No risk of the Funky Chicken flying FPV either!

Nice vid. Were you following your friend? Is it common to see the props with the Phantom?

Yep, drone flying is addictive.  Going to take it up in a few minutes to see if I can get a nice sunset.  We have a brush fire about 10 miles to the northwest of me, and all that smoke sometimes makes for great sunset photos.  After it gets dark, we'll see if I can see any red glow from the fire.
A whole lot less expensive than flying a Cessna 172 too.  But I can't fly in the drone over to Catalina Island for a buffalo burger lunch...

The best photo of the fire about 10 miles away from 385 feet over my house.

Fire was about 500 acres three hours ago.

Very exciting and very additive.

Hello there. Thank you for reaching out and for these information you have shared. I hope that you will get the best information from our fellow DJI co pilots with regards to this matter in on how do they feel when they fly there DJI drones. Have a safe and a happy flying always.

I have the same feeling when flying drones.
BTW There's update for MA2 to eliminate props in view, so it is geometry thing (high pitch vs field of view)...

Yep its brilliant!!!!
