I’ve been flying DJI drones for 8 years or so. I currently have a Mavic AIR 2 S and it is pretty good. Distance, sensors, 4K, filters for the lens of the camera—you can’t go wrong.

The bad part is the drama about them being banned from being used. I don’t know how valid these talking points are, but you may want to look into Skydio.

I would suggest you look at Skydio 2 Plus and make sure you get 3 or more batteries. They have a beacon so it’ll follow you. You can fly with your phone without a controller, or fly with controller and phone as your pov. The sensors for obstacle avoidance makes a difference. You don’t know how many trees or power lines you may hit lol.

You are looking at about $1,500-$1,600 dollars for something you’ll have for a while.

The Mavic Mini’s are okay. But after you get comfortable flying. You’ll want to fly farther away to look at cool stuff.
