Is the Mini 2 SE worth it over the Mini 3?

The Mini 3 adds 4K, a larger sensor, vertical shooting and optional obstacle avoidance. The Mini 2 SE is the simpler, lighter-featured pick for casual flyers who mainly shoot in daylight.

Do I need to register the Mini 2 SE?

At under 250g it falls under the recreational exemption in many countries, including the US and much of the EU. Rules vary, and some places require a test or app registration regardless.

How long can it fly on one battery?

DJI rates it at up to 31 minutes. Real flights with wind and hovering typically run a few minutes shorter.

Does it have obstacle avoidance?

No. The Mini 2 SE has downward vision and GPS for stable hovering and return-to-home, but no forward or side sensors to stop it hitting objects.

What comes in the box?

The standard kit includes the drone, one battery, the RC-N1 controller, spare propellers, a gimbal protector and cables. The controller holds your phone, which serves as the screen.
