I found my wife's food scale and was able to measure. My drone stock with battery weight was 240 grams. When I added my gimbal protector, both strobes with mounts and leg extensions, it was 292 grams.

Great info, thank you!

Wanted to do some night flying, I bought 2 Firehouse Arc V strobes and found some neat mounts for them online that doubles as extended landing gear. Anyways, I couldn't find the weight of the strobes online, any idea of the Mini 2 will be able to handle the added weight ok? Maybe anyone who...

Around 1pm in afternoon, sunny but with overcast. I've noticed the mini 2 will do okay when hovering near the ground, say 5 to 10 ft, but when you get to around 50-100ft, after hovering for maybe 30 seconds it could be 10-15ft away from the takeoff point, almost always drifting left.

New Pilot here from North Texas. Starting out my journey with a DJI Mini SE. Only been flying for 2 days, just got my drone up to 265ft today above my house, little scary, but first day. Anyways, just joining to get more knowledge, thank you.
