This is indeed a great drone ! I started off with a toy drone very hard to control always had to keep adjusting to keep it in one place. But once you master that and get on one of these drones it's like heaven this drone can fly itself or almost . I tried it in my basement the first time and was able to fly it up the stairs no problem . You can let it hover in one spot put the controller down and leave it for 25 to 30 minutes won't move from that spot . Camera is also amazing video is so steady you won't believe it. It's also got GPS so you can follow on the map and lots more technology. Do your homework before you buy , check out others and I'm sure you'll be back looking at the mini Mavic , $599 is still a lot of money but well worth it .

I had a test run with the dji mavic mini and it was my first time flying. I launched it from the fourth floor of my apartment and there were no winds. The drone unfortunately started moving towards the right side on its own as it kept going, I immediately pressed the return to home button as it took off on it’s own so that it would come back to me. Unfortunately it did not respond and kept swaying and flew away as I saw it going. The drone lost connection and eventually landed in a bush slightly far away from the apartment block. I tried tracking the find drone function by checking on the map but it wasn’t accurate. I scouted the area and found it. I hope future updates will fix this, the drone camera isn’t that clear and night visibility is completely shabby. I’m saying to buy other series hopefully the experience will be better.

I've owned five or six drones over the years, but this is the best. It does everything my Phantom 3 did (well, except 2.7K video instead of 4K, but that's plenty good enough for me, and the stills are the same 12 megapixels) and more. But unlike my bigger drones, the Mavic Mini is super-compact and lightweight--easy to store and easy to carry. It's a pleasure to fly, as long as you don't try to buck winds above 10-15 mph. I usually fly in the early morning, when the light is best and the wind is low or nonexistent. I'm very happy with this drone, especially at the affordable price for the refurbished "Fly More" kit. The kit, by the way, looked and worked like a brand new unit--shrink-wrapped, with all accessories down to spare cables and joysticks. The only way you could tell it wasn't brand new was the small "refurbished" sticker. All in all, a great drone at a great price.Read full review

This is my first drone, and from all the research that I've done, it's a great starter drone. Very intuitive controls, the Fly More set is great, with 3 batteries to start, case, and controller. This was a refurb, but it must have been returned "brand new", as everything was new. What a blast! Can't wait to fly again. It's not the latest and greatest, nor does it have 4k video, but it's an incredible little 249 g drone that punches above its weight. At 249 g in weight, you're not required to register with the FAA. If you want a good deal to start your drone career, this is a great drone to pick.

This is the best drone in this price range for beginners and experienced pilots! It may be a little short on certain features but it's a quality reliable drone which is very important!, nice to know that your drone will return to u 99.9% of the time. It flies in nearly all conditions that you'd want to fly in and feel confident.
