DJI, the global leader in civilian drones, introduces DJI Mini 2. This is the second generation of the quadcopter, which thanks to its weight reduced to under 250 grams, avoids the necessary registration (this obligation will also apply to the Czech Republic in a matter of months). Although it is the lightest and cheapest aircraft from DJI, it has a rich set of sensors and technologies on board.
Evolution and sophisticated onboard systems
A priority in the development of DJI drones Mini 2 was safetyThanks to an advanced image capture system and integrated GPS, it can return to its launch site – whether when the signal is lost or when the onboard computer Based on the weather situation, it calculates that the battery is running low and it is time to head back.
Compared to the first generation, the "Two" is better in every way. The wireless technology used in the controller-aircraft communication has changed from Wi-Fi to OcuSync 2.0. This is a standard created specifically for drones and means a more stable connection, higher video transfer speeds, but also doubles the maxmaximum range of up to 10 kilometers (however, it should be remembered that the law requires the pilot not to let the drone out of sight).
MaxThe maximum flight duration jumped to a great 31 minutes, the speed from 47 to 58 km/h, maxminimum flight altitude to 4 km and wind resistance from level 4 to level 5. A completely new dimension is opened by the gimbal-stabilized on-board camera. One thing is the intergenerational shift in video resolution from 2,7K to full 4K. However, the developers emphasize that the image quality has also improved in the same way. You will also like the new ability to save photos in the format RAW, which will allow advanced editing.

Even a beginner needn't be afraid
The features that make flying drones accessible are great.onefor complete beginners. Mobile application DJI Fly (compatible with both iPhonem, and iPad) contains the function Flight Tutorialwhich will explain the very basics of working with dronem. DJI Flight Simulator Instead, it teaches you to fly in a virtual environment. The advantages are clear – crashes on the computer screen nestIt doesn't cost a penny, while the physics and reactions are completely accurate, so you can then switch to a real drone with a clear conscience.
Apphunting excellence and Czech awards
A certain inspiration can be seen in the products of the DJI brand, with the qualities that are typical for Apple. Whether it's a clean design, uncompromising functionality, or perfect reliability. And it's not just an impression, after all DJI and Apple they are partners. This collaboration also means perfect compatibility with iPhones and iPads.
Right after Thursday's premiere, the news starts selling in the Czech Republic as well. Basic DJI Mini 2 with one battery and a pair of spare propellers costs 12 CZK. However, more experienced pilots are used to the richer Fly More Combo from DJI. For an additional 999 CZK, you get three batteries, three pairs of spare propellers, a 4° cage that protects the rotating propellers during flight, a charging hub, a powerful charger, a practical backpack and many other small things.

How do they avoid registration? They won't avoid anything. If the drone is recording, it will have to be registered and its owner must pass a basic test on the rules for flying drones.
That will be the case in the EU. In the USA it is (probably still will be) - without registration. Anyway, from what I read, the C0 category under 250g can fly over non-participating persons without their consent. C1 that is over 250g already needs approval.
From 31.12.2020, you will need registration for everything that has a camera and is not registered as a toy by the manufacturer.
The EU should come up with different bullshit.
