Now that I've read your "Article" I guess I'll add my two-cents. I am a current
Mini 2 caretaker (you can never really "own" a
Mini 2) and I've written how s/he comes to "life" when you power your
Mini 2 on; watching the Gimbal go through its self-check is almost like watching a kitten or puppy opening its eyes for the first time… So you can probably say that I've amorphized my Mini into a living, breathing thing… And yes, he has a name. When my first
Mini 2 was "taken" from me (she was taken out by a heartless tree branch) and I received this replacement from DJI, I told my wife I did not know what to name it, and my wife said, "it's a he" and she gave him his name…
So, you can see I'm a bit prejudiced and I think that the
Mini 2 has the nicest, cleanest lines of all Drones, everywhere… There is another survey asking if you would buy a US made Drone of equal quality and I think all of the US Drones look like flying Bricks; square, boxy and about as aerodynamic as a Flying Trashcan… I will not even address the firmware sophistication.
Also, so many of our brethren flyers are jumping into the
Mini 3, It may be faster, it may be more sophisticated, and it may have so much better optics, but it is one ugly bird… All the "more this or more that" don't change the fact that not even a "mother" could love that much ugly…
