WHAT A YEAR!!!  This is a compilation edit of footage captured exclusively on the Mavic Mini in Montauk, Long Island, NY over all 4 seasons of 2020.

I am typically operating in an extremely challenging environment, and when I look back now I am absolutely stunned by what this little drone can do... and as you can see I fly around water SOOOO much, having an "inexpensive" drone allows me (now) to feel surprisingly comfortable when risking it out over the open water. Yes, I have to pick my days and times.... No, the MM is NOT able to handle as wide a range of conditions as many more expensive drones, but I think of it like the way Han Solo described the Millenium Falcon to Luke Skywalker, "She's got it where it counts, kid."


What an amazing little piece of tech! Thank you DJI for making the MM!! It was EXACTLY what I was waiting for!!!


I do look forward to getting a Mini 2 at some point, when I retire one of the 2 MM's I have in service now... but given how reliable and resilient they have been, it may be some time! ;-)

Thanks to everyone here for your guidance, support and encouragement over the last year... that has been truly appreciated.


Hope everyone enjoys the video!

Amazing footage.
