Nice. I will be definitely looking at these drones if the ban goes through. I was trying to see where you can purchase additional batteries but I didn’t see a battery only option on Amazon or the companies website. Any insight on this?
Specta tells me more batteries for both the Specta Air and Specta Mini will be available soon - most likely July.
Hi Bill, nice review of the Specta Mini, thanks for sharing. However, a DJI drone by any other name is still a DJI. vbg
Thank you.
Hi Bill. Very good showing here. You moved the gimble during RTH that's why it stopped. Even with DJI if you move the gimble it affects the RTH.
Exactly. Thank you so much !
The question is... "Is SPECTA a subsidiary of DJI"? Do you think it is to close to a DJI Mini 4k to be a coincidence?
These are white label drones. Per Specta they are not a subsidiary of DJI.
nice lil camera bird bill! love to see a distance test too!
Thank you ! More videos coming very soon !
Reminds me of the DJI Mini 4K. If you're a member of Costco, they have the Mini 3 for $299 that comes with a 64G SD card and three ND filters.
Sure does. It's a great deal at $289 from Amazon.
Looks, flies & sounds just like a Mini 2. Pretty decent picture quality also.. Although I'd still probably spend the extra $10 for the Mini 2 (with the CareRefresh option ..etc) Walmart still advertising the Mini 2 for $299... Great review Bill! Thanks for the insight 👍
Than you so much. I'm very impressed with it !
The Specta Mini is now available on Amazon for only $289 ! amzn.to/4eRpFpf Thank you for smashing that like button, your great comments, and incredible support !

Is anyone having charging issues for this remote??I have same problem just today 062924. Air 3 fly more combo. Less then 3 weeks old. Rc2 Charged one time. Now it won't charge, lights don't come on indicating any charge is occurring and I have tried different plugs and cables. Nothing. This is very unacceptable for a drone that I saved for and had to pay so much money for.
Check the battery status of the RC 2 in the upper right hand corner. More than likely it may be fully charged.
If the FAA/Government wants to ban DJI drones which is total BS I might add OK then they should have to buy your drone for what you paid for it if you have your receipts and come pick it up because you bought something that was legal to fly but now it's not so buy my drone back FAA or eat SHT !!!
Suppose we are alway from drone or drone are at low level like 20ft in garden or under tress.sudenly we need RTH but if i had set RTH HEIGHT AT 200 feets.. My question is that when my dji air 3 prepear him for goto 200 feets (for set RTH position but drone are at under tress so what will b happened.. They did or not colapsed with tress..? Pls clear my confusion
For clarification purposes I would email your question to DJI Support - Support@DJI.com Thank you.
@@BillTheDroneReviewer thanks
@SyedUmar-th2sr Your welcome
Can the drone mechanically fly over 400 ft? Or is it programmed to not go over 400 ft to stay legal?
It is set to 400 feet by DJI. In the United States "The maximum allowable altitude is 400 feet above the ground" . This is per the FAA. www.faa.gov/newsroom/small-unmanned-aircraft-systems-uas-regulations-part-107
Bill! I am currently with my drone in the PHILIPPINES . I Did alot of footage eg Waterfalls, mountains etc. Unfortunately, while doing a Lake footage Inlost my drone. Here in the Manila you can not buy just the drone. Any recommendations where I can buy to replace my lost drone. Shipping and all. I know ita a long shot question. Thank you!
If your looking to get another DJI Air 2S I would suggest eBay. The DJI Air is currently on sale right now direct from DJI or amazon. Not sure if that would work for you.
This was a really interesting Q&A. I'm excited to see what Anzu Robotics does in the future
Randall is doing a great job. The future looks bright for Anzu Robotics.
I don't uderstand how do reach the zoom option
You use the FN key + camera wheel,. Here is a explanation on Zooming including the modes you can use Zoom: forum.dji.com/thread-282760-1-1.html
It's "Thunderbirds" green, I think it's a great choice
I like it as well.
Obviously an accident that you are taking advantage of. People like you only increase inflation, as stores have to charge more and more for items to make up for these kinds of losses.
Thanks for everything guys
Your welcome !
knowledge is a wonderful thing, thanks dude.
Your welcome !
Thank you for smashing that like button, your great comments, and incredible support !
I believe the US sees that DJI isca major technology provider to the Chineese CCP military. The US is seeing DJI assisting the CCP in doing bad things globaly. The US wants to "financially" hurt DJI and punish them in that way. This is not about US dangers with consumer products...its about hurting DJI's ability to grow and become a stronger "military" technology provider. I dunno...just my theory. The US wants to hurt a powerful CCP military defense contractor.
great show Bill !!! Felt good you noticed the PDP 11, I have work for DEC,Compaq and HP. It was terrible when we became Compaq and later HP. The last two companies has killed a lot of good products. I'm proud that I was with DEC.
Thank you ! That was perfect for a college environment.
Hi Bill, good show. Randall was an interesting guest. Seems his original intent was to supply DJI equivalent drones to states that banned DJI. If a total US DJI ban occurs, Anzu will be in the Cat Birds Seat. Not having the DJI 25% tariff should offset some of his licensing costs. If Anzu does become the main supplier for enterprise drones in the US, those drones because of the economy of scale, could end up lower cost than DJI enterprise drones.
Thank you Richard. Great comment.

What is the battery life, how much for a spare battery and distance the drone can operate drone the controller? Someone below stated a $799 price but whaen I search for a Mavic 3 pro Iget all kinds of prices, models, etc. What is yours exacrly (before the government bans them !!!!!!!!!!)
The cost of a Mavic 3 OEM battery from DJI is $209. Here is a link to specs from DJI for the Mavic 3 Pro including battery life and range www.dji.com/mavic-3-pro/specs The $799 price was a mistake that Amazon made and did honor in my case (it was several months agon) and here is a video I did on that experience ua-cam.com/video/XQA2K4sNGDM/v-deo.htmlsi=2OhkCO5US3YsfMJD Current prices: DJI Mavic 3 Pro with the DJI RC is $2,199. This only comes with one battery.
If Gov can ban one product it can ban anything the Gov wants.
