Flexify drone best pocket drone under5/17/2023 This is the loveliest, most desirable little camera-equipped drone ever to snap from the air. "DJI Mavic Mini is yet another example of DJI's mastery of the drone market. At just $100 (or $160 for the Elite Combo with three batteries and more), this little sky star is a steal. This is a great educational feature because it teaches kids (and adults) the basics of robotics in an easy and fun way. Simply drag a series of named color-coded ‘blocks’ (‘take off’, fly forward’, ‘land) into a specific order and the Tello will follow the commands. You can also program this drone to perform a series of maneuvers with no real-time input from the pilot. The Tello has a 100-meter range and is capable of performing aerobatic stunts. The app also comes with a few pre-programmed ‘EZ Shots’ including circle (the drone flies around the user with the camera pointing inwards) and dronie (the drone flies away from the pilot while automatically filming at the same time). Everything the camera sees is streamed to the phone and, because it has digital stabilization, the footage it shoots is surprisingly smooth. To fly it, simply launch the Tello app on your phone, select hand launch, throw it into the air and steer it using the virtual joysticks on the screen. Although ostensibly designed for indoor flying, this little craft is also adept at flying outdoors, as long as it’s not too windy (without GPS on board, it could drift with the breeze and may not make it back to you). In other words, it’s small enough to tuck in a jacket pocket despite not being foldable like the DJI Mavic range. The Tello weighs just 2.82 ounces and measures 3.85 inches at its widest point. It stays in the air for 13 minutes at a time, comes with digital image stabilization, shoots video in pretty decent 720p, snaps 5mp stills and hovers on the spot without the aid of GPS. If you’re looking for a small but exceedingly well equipped ‘selfie’-type drone then consider this remarkable little contender from Ryze, which is equipped with a lot of DJI-sourced tech.
