Landing the drone is a matter of holding the descent lever down or pressing the land button. There are no collision sensors per-se, but the drone’s landing sensors do kick in if you fly a bit too hard at the ground, even in Sport mode, and the drone switches into its automated landing mode.

Live video preview is 720p and easy to fly with. Realistically I doubt many users will be troubled by the slower speeds, but with a descent speed capped at 3 meters/second (compared to the Mini 3 Pro’s 5 m/s) it is apparent that there isn’t the same power or processing performance to match pricier siblings. (This means the camera doesn’t try to stay horizontal, so flying feels faster and more fun, and footage looks dramatic.) Nonetheless I still enjoyed flaying, and liked the ability to switch the gimbal to FPV mode. The Cine mode is deliberately slow, but both Normal and Sport also felt a bit slower than pricier drones to me, though that isn’t surprising.

There are three different flight modes, easily switched by an on-screen button: Cine, P (Normal) and Sport. That means you’ll be up in the air and testing the drone’s limits very soon.

It’s not over-the-top or boring, and leaves you far equipped to fly further than a simple video would. The app is equipped with a useful tutorial – made of clear animated graphics and on-screen instructions. The experience of getting started and into the air with the Mini SE is very similar to other DJI aircraft (like the Mavic 3 or Mini 3 Pro) because they all use the app DJI Fly. There is no on-board memory so you’ll need to supply one. The drone batteries can be charged in the charging hub, if you have it, or using the aircraft itself at the rear is a USB-C socket for that purpose and a slot for a MicroSD card. Midships is the power button and 4 lights to check the charge. These help the drone land, and “see” the ground so it can compensate for drift. Seen from underneath, the Mini SE / Mini 2 SE has vents at the front above the gimbal, and vision sensors at the rear flanking an IR sensor. Losing them is always a worry, but the fact the controller can be so compact for travel The sticks are hard plastic, not metallic like others from DJI, but feel okay. When collapsing the controller for packing, the antenna fold down and the sticks needs to be unscrewed and tucked into clips under the phone grips. (The Mini 2 SE's controller charges via a USB-C port).

Oddly Android phones draw a charge from the controller, so it lasts abit under 2 hours, while the iPhone I tested with didn't, leaving up to 4.5 hours charge in the controller. There is a Micro-USB socket on the left which serves as charging port for the 2,600mAh battery or phone connection using one of the perfect supplied connectors (no dangling cables here).

The phone grips which emerge from the bottom can still handle the latest big phones (I tested it with my iPhone 13 Pro Max). While the Mini SE’s controller might not have the latest tech, it beats its successors on size and weight, folding down to a compact size. Again I find it a lot easier to leave three charging themselves sequentially in the hub than have to remember to switch any batteries I have every 90 minutes. My advice to people facing this choice is to think about how long they're likely to be flying and how far from home if you've gone on a long walk (easy enough with a drone so compact) it might well be worth having all those batteries, and charging one does take about 90 minutes.

In both cases you’ll find the fold-out drone, a controller which has fold-out arms to grip a phone (which serves as monitor) and three connection cables for iPhone Lightning port, MicroUSB, or USB-C, which covers the majority of phones (you’ll need to download the free DJI Fly app). A charging hub is a box which can sequence the charging of power-intensive batteries so the second one is charged the next starts, a very useful time saver.

The former includes three batteries to the standard one, plus a case and a three-battery charging hub. This is actually a big choice depending on whether you opt for the “Fly More Kit” or the standard package. The DJI Mini SE Fly More kit in the box (Image credit: Adam Juniper/Digital Camera World)
