    Fantastic review...and drone! Another great thing is that unlike the DJI Mini drones, there is no "big-brother" geofencing to deal with that can very quickly lock down your drone. You really do the best drone reviews, it's nice to see you enjoy your work.
  • @kpmac1
    Great video, thanks. Just a quick note. I received my Atom today and they’ve fixed the glue issue on the gimbal cover. It only had a very small sticker that did not leave any residue. I guess they’re listening and fixing stuff 👍
  • @DyingRetail
    I got the Atom from Amazon yesterday. I’m so glad I’m returning the SE for this one. The gimbal is a game changer. Thanks for this review again bro!!! Next I want to look into getting 107 certified :)
  • @Hatleyrocket
    You’re my favorite drone review guy. Thanks for all the work you put in.
  • @frankmoreau8847
    That looks like a really good drone. It's good the DJI will have some serious competition in the small camera drone market. The real plus for many is that it doesn't appear to have onboard RID like most of the DJI sub-250 drones. I think the Mini 2SE is the only one without RID in the DJI line-up.
  • @user-kt1dn6zi4d
    Keep it up, you do a fantastic job on reviews. Lots of information.
  • @shawncandler1960
    The SE was my first drone and I still fly it. Along with a mini3p. And I am so excited to finally get this little guy. Thanks for the great review.
  • @randydue7993
    This is now on my want list. I have the original Atom so am really glad to see this uses the same batteries, hub etc. Priced right too.
  • @user-du2of3lh1g
    I've been looking and comparing the different drones and this is by far the best drone for the$!!! Sooooooo glad I waited to get this one looks like it's a winner for sure thanks for the video been waiting to confirm that it's really as good as it says THANKS!!!!!
  • @r3ady150
    Thank you for this. I was looking for a good drone to buy to get back into flying
  • @Flash-FX
    Just received one yesterday. They LISTENED TO YOU and ditched the gummy sticker and replaced it with a smaller "way less sticky" label!! Good tips! thanks!
  • @samholdsworth420
    I just ordered one today. Hopefully flying it tomorrow...thanks for the review
  • @kodak_jack
    The field of view is less than 1/2 of what it was. For those who like doing landscape videos, that's a big change. A firmware change they can do is a pan and 180 mode like the Mini2 SE has. It can stitch 6 pan shots together or do 9 shots stitched together in the 180 mode.
  • @Kerry-zs7dl
    Thanks for sharing. I heard they copied fimi's remote design. Their remotes are very similar in design.
  • @scotty2553
    Could you make a video adding RID modules so we could see where the best placement is for flight characteristics as well as not blocking the GPS signals? Great video!
  • @SW-Video
    With Autel done with the Nano and Lite consumer level drones, it's nice to see another option without geofencing. The video looks pretty good. Some minor adjustments in post wouldn't hurt.
  • @WiganDroneFlyer
    I have the Atom SE but this drone looks really good with the upgrades Potensic have done, especially that 3 gimbal axis. Will be buying this asap! Great review too btw :)
  • @queirozdrone
    Thanks for your tips, great I bought one and I'm waiting for it. I'm new in this hobby, so, I have a kf106 max
  • @AlAponte
    Sold! Thank you for the awesome review.
  • @JustinDavito
    This was really impressive. Shoutout to them on this drone. My only concern is that the video quality may not be up to par verse DJI for real estate aerial videos. What do you think? I very well could be wrong but that was my concern. Overall though, this looks like a drone I would have considered for business purposes if it came out only a few months earlier.
