Flying over Fall

[JimFox]

I think I am currently only using my drone for fall colors! I am down to 2 battery's as 2 of them have expanded and don't fit anymore. I tried to buy a new battery and it seems like DJI no longer sells new batteries for the Mini 2.

So hopefully I can get another year out of my mini 2!

This is from somewhere in Minnesota! I love the top down views.

All comments are welcome,

Jim

Not surprised the batteries are starting to fail on that drone - its hardly young anymore. Nice overhead of the fall colors.

It certainly is visually striking!

Hollywood has taken to using these kind of straight down shots over forests to introduce murder-mysteries!

Thanks so much Trent! I enjoy seeing the fall colors from that perspective.

Thanks Alan.

Yep, the Mini 2 is getting long in the tooth. DJI is only selling Renewed batteries, and I am not sure what goes into renewing a battery.

The clone ones, get great reviews except about 1 out of 5 reviews will be that they were flying the drone and the battery went from 70% to 0% instantly. Which causes me to say no to the clone battery.

Thanks Michael! I didn't know that. I guess I could have shot a Whodunnit mystery, about who killed the fallen leaf?

I am a sucker for overhead view of fall colors and this is a nice example.

A new drone is calling your name.

LOL Yep, maybe one day. The problem is I can't justify $2500 for a better drone, and then all of the mini's to be honest are not all that different. The Mini 5 doesn't seem like hardly an improvement over the Mini 2. So I have just stuck with it. I probably need to try those refurbed battery's from DJI one day.
