The DJI Mavic Mini 2 is an excellent drone with new upgrades and features included in the Mini 2.
In addition, the size still weighs at 250g, and the good news is that you won’t have to register your DJI drone to the FAA because anything less than 250g is not considered register-able.
The controller is different and is similar to the DJI Mavis Air 2 controller, which is larger and bulkier.
Also, compared to the old Mavic Mini, which used a wifi connection, the Mavic Mini 2 uses Ocusync, and radiofrequency is used, which is very reliable compared to the old Mavic Mini.

Drone Design
The DJI Mavic Mini 2 has a lightweight build, weighing 249g. Also, compared to the previous Mavic Mini 1, the Mini 2 has upgraded its motors which allows the drone to sustain certain weather conditions and strong winds.
This is all thanks to the 5-levels of wind-resistant technology that the Mavic Mini 2 incorporates.
With upgraded motors, the Mini 2 is quite faster as well.
In addition, the Mavic Mini 2’s design has the same light gray build, along with its high-quality plastic finish, which still looks aesthetically pleasing.
The drone’s noise isn’t too significantly loud, so you won’t hear that loud buzz noise that smaller drones produce.
The Mavic Mini 2 doesn’t come with an automated obstacle sensor, so you’ll need to be extra careful when flying through tight spaces and environments where lots of obstacles are present.
Compared to the new Mavic Air series, the Mini 2 won’t have certain features, such as the Active Tracker, which shouldn’t be an issue if you don’t mind not having a drone following you.
The Mini 2 will have its same four propellers, which can fold, making the drone very portable, making it great if you’re always on the go and traveling, which I like because I’m always traveling to different places with my Mavic Mini.
In addition, the battery packs are included with the bundle, which includes three extra batteries total. With an operating time of 31 minutes, a minute upgrade from the original Mavic Mini drone.
Also, the charger uses USB-C to charge, which the USB-C cables come along with the bundle.
