I don't know whether to thank you or hate you for the photo's. Cute little bugger..I had no interest till I saw those. What exactly does that grey gizmo do.?
Yes me too, a number of people are already reporting on DJI‘s forum
- I experience a full disconnection for 2 seconds with the aircraft 20 ft. from me, but 100ft altitude. This was a glitch. This I am pretty sure will be corrected in a near feature firmware.
That sounds concerning.
Did the drone just hover - or carry on in the direction it was going?
Do you think that was a freak one-off?
You mean MM1 and MM2 I assume.
I have already 3 flights completed with the DJI Mini 2 and here are my observations:
I will add more information as I keep testing.
- The plastic material feel much more solid and can not be bend easily like the MM1
- The Mavic Air 2 controller does not want to link with the DJI Mini 2.
- The Mavic Air 2 controller has 4 white LED (for battery levels) and the DJI Mini 2 controllers LED are green
- The DJI Mini 2 has a nose LED and you can modify the color about 8 or 10 options of colors. You can set as rainbow, Solid or blinking (that is cool)
- You can zoom the camera up to 4X zoom in 1080P, 3X in 2.7K and 2X in 4K at least in video mode. I still need to check in photo mode.
- Talking with the people of DJI, you can use the Mavic Mini Battery in the DJI Mini 2.
Also you can use the DJI Mini 2 battery in the Mavic Mini 1 but the weight will go over 249G and you will need to register the aircraft with FAA.Even when the DJI support representative told me that is not true. I have the chat log.- The video transmission seen very lag comparing with my smart controller setup even at 20FT distance. I am pretty sure this will be corrected in feature firmware's.
- I experience a full disconnection for 2 seconds with the aircraft 20 ft. from me, but 100ft altitude. This was a glitch. This I am pretty sure will be corrected in a near feature firmware.
- The DJI Mini 2 is the most quiet drone that I ever test. Is much quiet than the Mavic Air 2. Comparing with the Mavic Mini 1 does not have comparison in how much quiet is.
- Today was windy and it handle the wind very well but still I experience side drag. (was very windy)
- I tested a top speed of 36.37Mph in sport mode
- The Air Data is not reporting correctly miss reporting wrong battery levels information, distance, altitude and others. I reported already to Airdata.com
- Just find out, by uploading the Flight logs manually to Airdata.com reports correctly
- The video resolution is very good but notice some noise comparing with the Mavic Air 2
- The pictures are ok. The DMG file is very useful.
- The AEB only takes 2 pictures (I was hoping for 3)

MA2 controller will connect to Mini 2 - after you upgrade the MA2 controller's firmware. You could do this by connecting directly into your computer via USB and download/open DJI Assistant 2.0 (free app). I had to do this prior to successful pairing.I have already 3 flights completed with the DJI Mini 2 and here are my observations:
