I do. What do you want to do with it? It all depends on what you want to do with it.
Right now I just want to get used to it. I live next to cornfields and plan on doing that for my first flight. I also have a golf course nearby that would be cool to try and find my Grandpa
Besides that I plan on using it taking pictures and videos on walks. I have a large lake and state parks near me that would be cool to adventure.

Do you want 4k video? Is that important to you?
The Mini is 4k, correct? I did purchase the fly more combo so I have 3 batteries. I also got a 32 GB microSD for it. Seemed like all I needed at first, I may upgrade to a larger microSD.

Weight is another thing. Mavic Mini is cheap, but any wind and it will get knocked around. Too strong of winds and you could never see it again.
Yes, I have seen a lot of user videos on YT and I do have some strong winds where I live, just because it is a neighborhood in the middle of nowhere.

I think the Mavic Air 2 is the best all around drone. Unless you are a professional or want professional quality photos there is no need for the Pro line, and the Mavic Air 2 fixed the Air's main issue by adding Occusync. The Mini is cheaper but the Air 2 does so much more and is a better overall value
Sounds good. I only purchased the mini because it seemed like the top drone for the price point and I appreciate the 249g keeping me from registering, etc. I could learn on this and sell it for some cash if I wanted to upgrade, but right now I am more just wanting to get into the hobby use of it. I dont think that I would need one for professional use, but appreciate the information.

I have the Phantom 3 professional 4k. Love it. it has great range and camera is legit. It is also very durable and I live close to the ocean out here and the ocean breeze is no problem when flying. BTw the return to home button has saved my arse many times. Oh fuk I lost it No problem return home button and the butt unpuckers.

This is what I did, I originally bought a Spark because I wanted to get used to it, but its easy. You have to be pretty dumb to crash it or lose it. With that being said, not saying it can't happen - I've crashed mine twice, but it was crazy circumstances. Those circumstances will happen no matter how good you are. My Spark lasted about 2 weeks before I sold it and just got a Mavic Pro. You'll outgrow it fast, it doesn't take long at all to get used to flying it.

Mini maxes out at 2160 resolution. 32 GB should be fine but I like to go with 64 GB.
