I love my lil drone and I take it everywhere I go!
It's quite compact and very practical. I'm even able to carry it in that small gray bag around my belt while riding a motorcycle (with 4 extra batteries). I can be lunched from hand and follow person / vehicle up to 25mph.
Image quality and stabilization is quite impressive, and it's quite easy to fly it.
Tracking and quick shots are really awesome and easy to use.
And it's quite resilient lil bastard: I crashed it multiple times, broke (and replaced) gimbal, ,flew it over active volcano, jungle, beaches, desert, mountains, etc.. and it's still alive and flying!
Few smaller comments / complaints:
- I've replaced broken gimbal myself (very picky process), but I wasn't able to calibrate new gimbal, and I had to take it to service eventually, I wish DJI was more transparent about that process (apparently they have a proprietary calibration software).
- Pay attention to description: charge hub charging 4 batteries in 'SEQUENCE' - it means: one by one, not all at the same time! Also charger comes with AC adapter, and you can't charge it on the road from power bank without DC/AC inverter or DJI DC adapter (not included in this bundle).
- Be careful if you launch it from vehicle (car/boat): by default, if the drone loses connection, it will go back to original 'home' point, which is where you launched it from. 'Home' point can be modified, but it's not so obvious and quick thing to do.
- Keep in mind that this drone does NOT have side sensors, so some of the quick shot modes like HELIX or BOOMERANG, can be quite dangerous!
- Finally, these bundles are awesome and come with lots of goodies, but none of them includes multiple MicroSD cards, which are must if you are going to use this drone while traveling.
