1. The Potensic Atom 2 is a much better drone than the Specta Mini

3. That comparison photo from all 4 drones of the garage at night is useful.
   Note which garage is properly exposed without blowing out the neon light…
   DJI Air 3S wasn't the same zoom, but the Mini 4 Pro actually did outstanding.

4. I want to use a drone to drop a foam golf ball payload at golf charity events. If my top priorities is safety of people at event, ease adding a new golf ball for the payload, and battery life (events are 6ish hours), is the air 3s the way to go?

5. Currently have a air 3s i had the 4k mini i still think the best value atm is the air3.

6. Good day Chrome. I just wondering is the battery of specta mini work with DJI mini 3way charging hub? Thanks.

7. Excellent review! Can you recommend a good & affordable drone for the beach (wind) that takes great video & pictures?

8. Great video and very informative mate. You know your drones. One thing try working on that pretty awful toad croaking voice. God Bless .

9. Didn't dji actually get rid of the geofence feature at the end of last month

10. How long does the motors last?
    Also, like how old is your drone (s), any of those motors gone south?

11. Update, as of January 15th, DJI dropped Geo fencing.

12. I'd love a channel that talks about anything but DJI in the drone world.

13. Ppl complain about registering. Its only $5 for 3 years. If u cant afford that idk what to say lmao. If you want the best but on a budget get the mini 4 pro. If u want the best and can afford it, get the mavic 3 pro.

14. As of today U.S. Customs is not allowing my drone to be delivered to me (DJI Air 3s). I called Cincinnati, Ohio Customs-Hub and they are citing the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) which means they're blocking imports of some DJI drones. Unfortunately the DJI Air 3s drone is on that list. I had to request a refund through the DJI website.

15. Never aGAIN DJI.

    Too much geofencing

16. Heads up i just tried to fly my Specta Mini at an RC Airfield classified as uncontrolled airspace and was in fact Geolocked out saying I needed to unlock the zone and request permission to fly but the app never unlocked as I never got the message or the phone call, I tried both, to get the unlock code. Haven't seen anyone else talk about this but wanted to get it out there and see if anyone else has seen this happen yet. Flew in the same place last week no issues, then today completely grounded

17. Waiting for next generations. In love with the Neos durability and the specs of the Air 3 … hopefully they do a new Neo with Air 3 specs or new Neo batteries with higher capacity.

18. Would you be willing to go deeper into this like if this is legal why is specta cheaper if its the same drone? Who are the allowed to sell it? Are they just copying it or are the buying dji in bulk and rebranding it? Teardown comparison? Software comparison?

19. Dji Air 3s for sure

20. I just bought a DJI neo, in my country it cost 380$ without the controller. (with local taxes)

21. Wieso sprichst du nicht deutsch, wenn du schon einen deutschen Videotitel hast? "Welche Drohne sollten Sie 2025 kaufen? | DJI vs. Specta" Das nervt.

22. I just ordered the Specta Mini from your link.

    Plus two batteries.

    I'm wondering where to order extra propellers?

    Can't wait to fly my first drone here in Branson MO.

    I live on the lake at Clevenger cove. Near Rocky Shores developments.

    Thank you for your great reviews.

    I wouldn't be buying without your advice.

23. Question. When you did compare the Mavic 3 to the Air 3S, did you use 'Auto' mode, 'Manual' mode at 4K @ 60 fps or 'Night Mode' on the Mavic 3?

    I just recently did record a firework at night on my 'DJI Mavic 3 Pro' drone with 'Night mode' (4K @ 30 fps) and with 'D-Log' as color profile. The footages look absolutely incredible after using a really great LUT on it.

24. I would go for a DJI, because Specta is not available in Europe, would like to try one out, to test.

25. Do you do fpv? I’m trying to get into it but I don’t know what to get to take good video as a beginner

26. i hear that dji requires some sort of sign in every three months, do the spectra have the same nonsense?

27. you start out the video talking about using drones to take pics for a business then you proceed to say there are two drones that don't need to be FAA registered…. hmmmm – OK at 2:28 you re-deem yourself…. lol

28. Is DJI really ceasing drone export to the USA? Is it changing the market there yet?

29. Mini 3 pro and Air 3s have the best obstacle avoidance to date out of all dji drones ever made. Tested and proven by Rain Maker.

30. Happy New Year. All the best, from Brazil

31. I am rolling with the neo for content creator and self videoing

32. Good evening. Sorry to disturb you.

    I have been doing a lot of YouTubing looking up different models and available features and searching Amazon for prices.

    I have now experience but am looking to get into drone flying

    As of now, my birthday is in April and my kids and wife have agreed to buy me whatever I want. However, I don’t wanna buy a sports car just to crash and go broke

    With that being said, i wanted to ask you or any other commenters a couple of questions, if I could

    Would you recommend me just buy something cheap with just enough technology to get familiar with flying, recording, and landing? If so could you recommend anything?

    Do you mind sharing a little on how you started or what drone(s) you started with?

33. I just purchased the mini4pro. Awesome little drone. I went a registered with the FAA. Trouble we don't need. Thanks for sharing. My year's goal now air3s. Happy new year to you and family. Keep on flying my friend

34. I want a Specta air badly but I'm gonna hold out until there is more accessory support

35. I bought a Mini 2SE then immediately ordered the Mini 4 Pro. Such fun drones, very impressive.

36. Specta air is 1k right now on Amazon

37. I’ve watched all of your videos for the mini drones, and FIMI, Ruko, Bwine and many others. I disagree the sub $400 drones are usable. They are junk. I went through Bwine, Fimi, Ruko F7 & F11 Pro–all sent back due to failure (not the F11 Pro (never opened). I’m waiting for the Specta Air to arrive. I’m hoping, based on your review, this is the one.

38. Is the remote compatible with the Dji neon

39. Happy New Year!

    Curious about your take on the Hover Pro/Pro Max as the price points seem similar when adding it all up? I have the X1 and I’m considering getting the Pro for kayak and fishing/nature videos.

    Thanks and keep up the great content!

40. I have never seen what is truly "two", cameras … in my mind two cameras would be two cameras that could work at the same time, with the same specs … otherwise you have one camera and an auxillary camera …

41. The Mavic 3 Pro is all I need. Best drone I’ve owned to date

42. Agree on all points. Do you think Specta will release an (S) model with the 1" sensor this year? Cheers and Happy New Year!

43. Happy New Year. I just got my Specta Air waiting for Bday to open :). I am still thinking about the mini 4 pro fly more instead. Mostly for the batteries and carrying case. Any guidance? Thanks

44. Happy New Year wishing you all the best for the new year
