Who knew one could get so stressed from watching someone ELSES drone video! lol! This is the thing I love about your channel, you push the envelope and in so doing answer a LOT of questions that people might have about the product. This flight answered ALL of my remaining questions about this drone. THANK YOU!
You've achieved a pinned comment for understanding the reasons I do these tests. Not to show off but to disseminate information 👍
Great comment 👍👍
Dustin Dunnill you help people see/understand how those devices will behave in extreme conditions... which should reduce a lot the number of flyaways...
Your videos are very long, but you are explaining why/how you proceed and it is very didactic... actually they are not long at all, they are filled with knowledge, good practices, nice experiments which made them very interesting. Simple advices to always going away against the winds, or to avoid WiFi interferences from populated areas have probably avoided hundreds of dangerous situations... they made me fly my own Disco (first thing I fly besides planes) safely enough to avoid losing it or endanger anyone, while enjoying the actual pleasure of the freedom you feel while flying...
Thank you mate.
I was screaming! lol
@@DustinDunnill this is why ive subbed :D
As soon as that battery hit 49% and he hadn't turned home yet, I started to panic
Goldenhalk Same!
Goldenhalk when he didn’t RTH when the damn thing told him to turn around
When every milliamp counts, I think I would have turned off video recording, at least -- no point in having video if you lose the drone.
I was yelling at my screen "STOP MOVING THE DAMN GIMBLE"!! LOL
😂🧟♂️
That little drone is a real soldier for returning from that misión on his last leg !!! 🎖
Ik right
Perfectly said .
I bought the SE which is the Mavic mini with mini two motors
The most epic range test with the Mini ever.
I have watched this more than 10 times over the past year.
Tried this myself...and got 3.06 miles.💪💪
Pretty impressive. That it made it back to its home location after 6+ miles and got to within a few feet is amazing.
I was sat watching thinking "Oh no, I hope he doesn't lose it!" While clearly watching footage recovered on the memory card. -_-
?
Froobyone you’re not alone brother we all think that
Hahaha I didnt know that until I read your comment :D
Well it could have been a WiFi recording so I can see why u thought that
@@drones101gaming4 footage from the SD is previewed on the bottom right window.
Blimey how on earth do you have the confidence and self belief to fly it beyond it perimeters and return it home is amazing. I'm not letting mine out as long as I can see it. Full respect my man 🤣👍
This was one of the most anxiety ridden videos I've ever watched! Cool stuff, thanks for pushing your gear to the limits so I don't have to. Great video!
I almost had a heart attack when the drone came too close to power cables at the end.
I think we all did. 😅
I was a nervous wreck. I had to hang up on my meeting at work and just stare at my screen...lol
Though its final resting place was gonna be in that wall 🤣
The only range tests where popcorn and a sofa to hide behind are mandatory.
?
When he got below 60% battery while being 3 miles out.. I knew he was in trouble.
That's the best part of doing anything with RC's - car, planes, and drones. Some random quest giver always shows up just when you're in the middle of needing to stay focused.
Long story short. When your drone says it wants to come back, let it come back.
Hello Goodbye 🤣🤣🤣👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
That was Drone abuse..lol
If you have tail wind on return trip I highly disagree, its calculations are based on zero wind, not calculating head or tail wind. A safety margin is programmed for a light headwind back to home when 67%is reached on battery remaining.
This video was more exciting than any of the last 6 or 7 Star Wars movies!
And Captain Marvel....
The prequels were exciting...
What a random and entirely useless thing to say.
^ queue the butthurt SW fanboy comments :)
@@MadfugginMax cringe.
This was phenomenally emotional!
Feels like a little friend hanging out for his life man
The distance! the beeping! The power lines the crash landing!!!! I was like” omg what else is gonna happen?! You even had an extra with the guy about his house. Well done sir! This has to be the most “by accident “ action packed home made video ever!!!! I was even off work but sitting in my car watching this because of the intensity building up 😂 😂😂😂
I’ve been searching for 3 days looking for a drone to by for my son as a Christmas gift. It was between this and the holy stone hs720e
And my decision is clear now. Definitely going with the dji. Thank you for helping me FINALLY decide!!!
I'd get a Mini 1 or 2 🍻
I got mine Mavic Mini for $229.99 refurb fly more combo. Best 200 bucks ever spent 👍
I paid for the whole seat but only used the edge on this one 👍🏼
@Tuho SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY!
I was on the edge of my seat too, lol.
hahahahahaha
this kinds of comments are my goals.
That was awesome! You flew over 3 miles out and back, expended 100% of your charge and made it back to within 50 feet of your start. Couldn't have done much better!
damn, what a spoiler. haha.xD
Perfect weather conditions allowed for this extreme test to an awesome drone...I was not so lucky!!
CZcams needs a spoiler alert.
He could have at least got it over the brick wall.. disappointing. Only joking.
32 feet
I don’t push my Mini that hard, but thank you so much for showing us just what it’s capable of. Of course, it was interesting to see warnings and prompts that most of us will (hopefully) never see!
Have to admit, I was chewing my own nails watching your Mavic dive in just over those power lines... but then that crash aaaahhh! So surprised absolutely no damage, and pushed the envelope past 4 kms (I'm over hear in Ontario Canada so we're stuck with metric, but ya my stock DJI Mavic Mini user manual states it'll fly out to 4 kms (or) 2.48 miles, you managed 5.48 kms (or) 3.4 miles! Well done, great flight path chosen, absolutely no cross roads or dwellings, overall a 5-star video IMO. Five thumbs up bud!
PS: I do have one suggestion however, not sure if the RTH mode was part of your distance test, but cancelling it out using the round red X icon on your mobile screen and manually RTH would stop that annoying beeping you'd mentioned, also you might have used that same red X icon to cancel the forced landing mode I believe (it still would've crashed mind you) but the close call with the power lines may have been avoided. All in all still AWESOME work, well done!
👍👍👍👍👍
I crashed my mini into a tree at 29 meters high (95 feet). The only thing that broke was 1 of the 4 arms. Everything else was fine. They are very resilient small things (probably because of the light weight).
My heart was beating quicker than those beeps watching that drone return to home
That's love is in e air
3:35 Guys to be honest, this looks absolutely amazing for a 399$ drone.. Well done DJI!
Matteo Lo Sardo i got it for $149
@@Kayshots how?
@@Kayshots how?
Ugh?
@@Kayshots How? XD
That........ was so enjoyable! The ending, wow, edge of my seat. I can't recall the last block buster movie that had me this glued to the screen. A++
I was already sold on this drone and am planning on getting it now but damn! You pushed this thing to its “limit” and still went above and beyond. Plus you answered some questions I had about it too all while I was rooting for it to come back safely lol. Thanks for making this video bro!
Watching this..
My mac: "Low Battery"
Me: -.- you're already home, chill out
I see your issue, you have a Mac.
Daniel shut up Mac hater
@@milvoid7287 Grow up kiddo
@@milvoid7287 he is not smart enough to understand the joke.
@@laurenpeters1542 Same as you it seems
Whoa wasn't expecting a crash landing !!! That was actually intense to watch lol.
Yooooo its baker! Weird finding you here. Hope all it well!
Damn I come to look at drones and find my homie 👌👌👌
I actually got some popcorn and started watching on the top of my seat like a action movie!
LooOoool
Im looking at getting one of these little guys and as far as "pushing it to the limit" that was incredible! I'm impressed and I was starting to panic when the battery percentage was getting lower and lower.. this definitely helped me want to get one even more!! Thanks dude 👌🏻
That was epic. You couldn’t have planned just how close that was going to be.
I didn’t know I needed one of these...but this was cool to watch.
Now I want one.
To be honest who doesn't want one
I feel the same way!
Got mine today! Only flown it inside so far though...
I just ordered one! This video with range test really gave me the last bit of extra confidence so I ordered one. I can't wait!
Stigstigster flew mine and have had it for about 5 days now, the range is no joke.
This little drone went that far amazing i,m sold.
I have the mavic pro platinum and it goes 4 times further 7 miles
If you can afford I recommend the mavic pro platinum
@@smartflightphotography1366 hi I went for the mini and it's a great drone I'm thinking for my second the Mavic pro maybe
@@smartflightphotography1366 why?
WHAT DID THE OLD GUY WANT YOU TO DO WITH YOUR DRONE??????????
I have watched hundreds if not thousands of CZcams videos in the history of CZcams, but this one REALLY IS a nail biter!!!!
What an absolute champion! I can't believe how good these units are, getting THAT far, plus the 2.7k video recording the entire time which looked fantastic by the way.
One of the coolest Drone vids on youtube! This video made me buy a DJI Mavic MIni. I will get it tuesday :)
Got it yet bro? Hahah
@ Pablo Luis Lopez how is it?
I got it too, just an hour ago 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 cycling and droning myself
@@3plehappy89 Yeah, I have been flying it over a month now, I crashed it twice and still no problem, this is a good drone, but I get about 1,500ft distance range.
Still I recommend this drone.
@@boosted_brody5474 its awesome get one bro!
Can't believe I got the same amount of thrill as I would watching an action movie lol
lol I 've recently found your channel, watched the Avata range test, then I was hooked and started watching the other range videos. This one, totally a nail biter! Glad it made it back, I'd say that was literally pushed to the max and the drone still made it back, close enough to the OG takeoff spot, I'd say this was as good as it''ll get for this drone. Thank you, sir!
I watched your videos this winter and i found this mavic mini locally.
You give a very good demonstration on what this drone is all about.
This is going to be a great retirement toy.
It’s actually done 7 miles because it had to come back. Amazing off that tiny battery.
Gareth 6.86 but who’s counting?
Prairie Climber actually 6.852 (feet converted into miles) but who's counting
That's what I was thinking too!
Including a ascending and descending? :)
Distance travelled, yeah. But this was a range test. (The range from the controller to the drone)
I've got to admit, that was nerve racking... I was like yelling at the screen (stop moving the camera you're wasting energy!) and somehow you pulled it off.... pretty amazing.....
Moving the camera would probably be the least power consuming part.
@John Freeman me too :-)
@@kerigancreighton2351 still something. recording also takes quite a bit of power. also I dont think 18mph is the most efficient speed
@@kerigancreighton2351 When one is trying to conserve power and squeeze every micro bit of juice left, then you dont use power systems. I too was scream. Don't use the gimble, stop recording, and dont push the motors. every bit of juice counts
@@jollyrogerhobbies2386 You should stop recording, but I am just saying, moving the camera takes as much energy as turning the drone left or right. probably less than .3 percent
That was great! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. Thank you.
I realize this is an old video, but when the video is good, it's just good.
Great video. I was sweating the fly back as much as you were, but was happy to see it make it home. Thanks for making an entertaining as well as informative video.
This was more gripping than a lot of movies that I've seen lately. Great stuff man.
I'll watch this over a movie any day.
This is the best range test i ever seen.. 👍🏻👍🏻
AMEN!
Priyank Baruah you should watch the Mavic 2 test as well.
Amen with that.
I couldn't believe it, it seems you have planned everything before hand because you've managed to land just few yards away in a dramatic way. It was nail biting video at the end but it was so nice to see and learn what I was looking for. I watched few others your video as well and thank you for this wonderful test flights.
Your thumbs are adrenaline junkies! Loving your playlist on this dynamite drone. Recently purchased one after being impressed by your previous video. Great stuff. Thanks man!
Through the whole thing I was like “Stop moving the camera, yer wasting power”! 😬
The gimbal uses just as much power to hold its position and counter the motion of the drone. Moving the camera will not make any difference.
geoffschulz
I did not know that! Thanks! 👍🏻
harleyrdr1 he also moved it to make sure he had good connection
Festus when I first read what you said I was like “whaaat”? But yeah I see what you’re saying. You may get some vid, but if you can’t move the camera then there’s a problem. Good point!
Good point. When you think about it.... It totally makes sense 👍
“Just one more beer”!!! Just one more beer. The guy is like Kramer seeing how many miles he can go once the “low fuel” light comes on.
lol...that's what i was thinking also
@@ekrieves Except it's not someone else's demo model :D
Have you ever done it? It is exhilarating! 😉
When I've bought every DJI product I've reviewed... they are not demo's 🍻
That was fun to watch man!! just ordered this Drone and I'm excited to get it. Thanks for the videos!
That was crazy. 1 mile out is nerve wracking enough for me.
That was great. 2 thumbs up bro. 👍🏼 👍🏼
Dude, that was legendary as far as “pushing it to the limit” absolutely incredible lol. I just purchased this little guy and am waiting for it. Glad to find out I now know it’s absolute limit. Well done sir.. 👌🏻
Mine is coming tomorrow. Great videos! 3.4 miles is crazy far.
I just ordered one today. How do you guys like yours?
Crazy!
@@Skeletor4ever love it!
how is it ?? i have the mavic mini 2 and its insane!!! hows yours?
Holy shit dude that drone is incredible, it went more then 3 miles out and was able to return just off a full charge, god damn that’s a 6 mile trip
With eeuu mode I think has more power signal
My wife bought me one for Chrismas. Im just flippin loving it. Its an awesome bit of kit. Dont think about buying one, just buy it you will not be disappointed.
Great video....This had more suspense than the last major movie I watched. Glad you got it back...that power line though...wow.
Best DJI Mavic MINI video by far. I'm buying this drone because of you. I will subscribe your channel. Thanks for the good video.
I just bought one today. My first drone. And this video was bad ass! Who thought I’d be smiling and nervous from a drone video. At one so far.
@@RVingTheCountry mee too, mm just come today, can't wait flying
I love to have one.its so amazing.but sadly i cant afford it :(
@@christiancasas1132 save hard 👍🏼
Might order mine soon should I buy the fly more combo?
He sounds like the kind of guy who keeps saying “just one more beer” haha. Great video thank you!
What made you think that
Lol
I bout the mini 3 weeks ago and I love it! It have awsome quality of videos and photos! Its handling the wind just fine. Thanks for inspiring me to buy it!👊
I just bought this drone and want to see all your videos before even breaking it out of the box. Great Job!
Someone give this drone a medal!
I ordered my mini a couple of days ago, it still hasn’t arrived, but after watching this video I’m freakin stoked!!

It is such an OUTSTANDING & WELL DESERVED presentation sir!
This is one of the best range tests out of all of the ones you have done
First youtuber doing this THX now we know how far we can send this drone,
Yes, but only the "FCC-model", how it's sold in the US. In most other continents they follow different regulations and send with less power, for example the model sold in most European countries goes considerably less far.
@@KurterinoVD It is not so true, since both are using same hardware it is just software issue which is already solved for those who knows how to tweak it
YES, and NOT over water :)
Remember he is in the wide open..I doubt you’d go this far in the city.
And it's way too far for me to ever need to now go.
That was intense! Like watching a movie and rooting for the drone. "Go drone! Come on drone!" Thanks for being brave enough to push the limits. It truly helps those of us researching drones to know what the DJI Mini is capable of.
Wow! I loved that video.
I am just starting to use my Mavic Pro that I had locked away for a few years and this issue has had me worried for a long time.
It was amazing how it almost made it home but a few meters! That is one hell of a good little robot!
That's got to be the best flight test I've watched so far. Brilliant video Dustin. 👍😊
I have been looking for an entry-level drone and wondered about range even though my intended use would be much shorter, you convinced me I have nothing to worry about. For the price and image quality, I don't see anyone beating the Mini for a while. As a pilot of general aviation aircraft, it comes with the territory to have range anxiety. It brings back memories, I used to have a house on the water's edge in Makena in the 1980s. My home was on the northern California coast and did not get back to Maui often enough to justify the cost of it sitting unused 90% of the time. Now I live in St Petersburg Russia, a beautiful city that is perfect for drone footage.
Thanks for the very informative video!
Luckily I watched this in the bathroom or I would have crapped my pants a lot
Jordan Drones i was like make it com back please
enterment fun same here! He was sooooo close I’ll count it but dang
@@JordanHandwerker Bro i am in the bathroom also
Michael O. Haha nice dude🤘🏻
Apeman Commeth que?
That was awesome how close that was! Pushed it right to the limit! Good to know its limitations... Amazing little drone!
Great video! Thank you so very much Dustin to give a guide to to the Mavic Mini capabilities extreme. I have one on order for a few days now. Thank you so much showing the Mavic Mini capabilities to the limits! Cheers, Neil
Best drone flight vid. EVER. Would also be interesting to hear your conversation with the guy wanting to hire you.
DJI Mavic mini range test results: *YES*
Watching this video kept me on the edge of my seat! Glad it returned back to you!
Amazing! Very self-explanatory video showing the capabilities and technology of this little machine!
LMFAO. I was like "He's not gonna make it, he's not gonna make it! She's goin down!" Damn close though man. Awesome video.
That's one of the most tense things I've ever watched, to go that far and then it nearly drops at your feet. Man thanks for the video... Loved it
I just received mavic mini and I'm super impressed with the video !
Details you gave are excellent and I'm now really exited to fly this myself. Thank you
Blimey that was a hairy flight pushing it beyond its perimeters up most respect you are a experienced drone flyer and having the confidence to return it home too, that's an amazing flyte time 😊👍
Rarely do I find a video I want to stick around for the full half hour! That was awesome, I just subscribed.:)
bought a 40 dollar drone on wish, lost connection on second flight and it flew away. now i'm looking into a 400 dollar dji. makes sense right? haha
I’m on the same boat as u 😅😂
Maybe you can send it to find your first drone you lost 😂
Definitely a good choice mate! Had this drone 1 year no problems
Yeah
Ok been nine months, did you make that purchase? I bought a mini last fall ( my first) and have been flying in -15 degree weather, high winds, over ice,snow and now water and have had no issues. 70 km flight distance logged already NO issues (other than a prop overspeed warning that was fixed by replacing a warped prop from storage I believe). BUY THIS DRONE.
I was clenching my jaw the whole way back lol. Glad it made it. Heading to the park now to learn how to fly mine. Wish me luck.
that was brilliant to watch, totally captivated and thanks for testing it and pushing it as you have, awesome.
I can’t believe that’s where it landed. Definitely had me puckered up
Dude. You are a rockstar. Me and my buddy were watching this last night begging you to turn it around. When you were at 9% I thought it was a goner. Great video
Man that was pretty cool. Was txting the wife your progress (she's not at home) and the suspense was terrific. Just got a Mini 1 and absolutely love your reviews on this thing. I thought it was pretty neat and after watching your video's I don't regret purchasing it at all for $338 (fly more refurbished). Thank you, and you've got a new subscriber.
Great video... i had to watch to see if it made it into your hands again. Very informative and very entertaining, beautiful footage, ... well done.
Amazing! Almost had a heart attack when it came dropping fast over those power lines!!! Definitely the best drone related content creator around. Thanks for sharing.
The best review ever! Great video! You really pushed and got away with it with lots of luck: missing telephone/power lines, soft grass for crash. I got all the information I needed and much more! Thank you soo much, you are a brave pilot and aware about other people to fly safe avoiding possible damage. You got a new fan/subscriber.
Holy cow! You NAILED that. I mean, to fly that far, and have it run completely out of power that close to where you took off is pretty amazing.
And I havr been seeing people saying the range on this drone sucks. Haha! Seriously impressed!
Just received a mavic mini which is my first drone and your videos have been great but this has really reassured me about range , the range on this is crazy!! I’ll never have it that far away but its good to know
Dustin man you pushed it there bud, when you got it to 60% I was saying to the tv RTH RTH lol..
The time I starting to panic a bit was where you was very close to hitting power lines.
A good range test mate and showing everyone how NOT to push your drone.
Happy rcing, marc
One of the most thrilling videos Ive watched for years. TY Dustin
You increased my heart beat. Awesome video. Kudos Dustin!!!
Awesome flight man! I was curious about the distance on that sucker, so thank you! One is on the way for my first drone.
No one will ever accuse you of not pushing the limits of a drone Dustin!
I've been researching this drone and I have to say you have done an amazing job here! So informative and helpful. I was blown away on the range test, 3 miles that is unreal. Really super, I'm a beginner and this drone seems perfect.
Omg i was panicking. Glad that tiny drone made it home and gave it all! What a trooper tiny guy! ♥️
Amazing! Simply amazing! Well done sir! I doubt I will ever go beyond 1 mile with my little mini but you give me more confidence to try. Thanks for the thrill!
I started holding my breath at 1 percent battery life, I can’t believe how close you got it.
Look how Mavic mini dropped out of the sky when it reached 0 percent batt.
Man seriously, this was so cool. I just bought a Mavic mini today, so nervous about using it so I’ve been watching how to videos and this was rad. I watched the whole thing. It made me excited annnnnnd nervous but confident. Thank you mate for sharing and for pushing this little beast. Happy flying man.
Great flight Dustin, pushing it to the limit ( and not above people ) is great, greetings from Holland.
New to the channel and to the drone family. I have a DJI mini 3 and this video was awesome to see how far it could be pushed. I look forward to watching the other videos now 💯
