Fellow mini 2 SE owner... impressive shots. I'm always amazed at what can come out of this ~$300 drone.
The Mini4k has much better specs as compared to the Mini2 SE โ and if you compare MSRP, itโs cheaper by about $15 USD. For my money, those inferior SE features are just not worth it
I used to have a DJI Mini 2 SE, but when I was trying to get action shots of my buddies boat in the ocean I had forgot to switch from cinema to sport and hit the bow of the boat and it ricochet into t

Mini 2 se is a great drone even if itโs old. I still have a mini 2 I fly occasionally. There is also a way to flash the mini 2 se to the mini 2 firmware and it will do 4k.
Hey man I had the same DJI mini 2 se. Itโs a great drone and the photos look very nice!
I do t think the mini 2 se is underrated! I love mine. That is a cool pic by the way.
Mini2โs rock!
No, unfortunelly the mini 2 se doesnt shoot uhd photos!
Just to confirm: You're using the Mini 2 SE? The say "Mini SE (version 1 only)" on their app listing.
Can't use third party apps with the Mini 2 SE, they dropped the MSDK support before moving on to the new version of the SDK, Mini 2 SE never made it into the SDK , so only the DJI Fly app can be used.
Litchi is NOT compatible with the Mini 2 SE.
the Mini 2 SE was a rather crippled revision to the Mini 2, especially without being able to use any third party apps. To clarify, it's just not possible, the third party apps rely on the SDK provided
