New Mavic Mini flyer

[Tolly]

Hi, just bought a mini today because I have an old Parrot Bebop and wanted a less expensive drone with a better camera and read some good things about the mini.
What I'm immediately a little disappointed with though is the lack of follow me and flight plan in the firmware/software. I had both on the Bebop and that's 4 years old!
Am I missing something or is it that DJI don't want to incorporate these features on their cheaper drones?
Looking forward to joining the conversations

Welcome to the forum. I fly a Mavic Mini too and love it. For only $400US MORE you could fly the new Mavic Air 2 that has those things...
Happy Flying

Welcome to the forum from the woods of Maine!
The Mini is really fun to fly and the controls are identical on the Mavic Air 2!

Thanks, this is my latest video and my last with the Parrot Bebop so not h mini yet. However I want to share it because it would have been impossible if not for the lockdown as it is in the airport restricted zone and i got permission.

Hi, and welcome.

I think you answered your own question! DJI are always going to try and upsell by limiting features on the cheaper drones.
