This is the the complete beginner’s guide to the DJI Mini 4k drone - the latest entry level release from DJI. It films at 4k@30fps and is sub-249 grams, making it a top light travel drone for 2024. In this drone tutorial, I’ll be unboxing and testing the DJI Mini 4k and putting the starter camera drone through its paces. I’ll also cover how to use the DJI Fly App, DJI Mini 4k setup and show how to fly a DJI Mini 4k drone, in this unbiased DJI drone review.

In this ultimate drone buying guide, you'll see that the DJI Mini 4k video drone is much the same as DJI’s Mini 2 SE, except it films in ultra HD 4k at 30 frames per second, instead of 2.7k at 30 frames per second or quad HD on the Mini 2 SE. It is not a 60fpos drone but it does has some of the best drone image quality of an entry level drone under £300.
It also boasts 3-Axis Gimbal Stabilization, 31 minutes of filming which is more like like 18 to 22 when you factor in wind and how fast you’re flying, 10km Video Transmission, level 5 wind resistance, which is a maximum 19 to 24 miles per hour, and auto return to home.
Why is the DJI Mini 4k not on the DJI website? There is no answer from DJI, however it is only available from Amazon for £269 or $299. (links above)
There are features this best beginner drone doesn’t have. There are no sensors for obstacle avoidance, the gimbal doesn’t rotate to vertical & only shoots horizontal footage & there’s no tracking or following either, though there are QuickShots such as Dronie, Rocket, Circle, Helix and Boomerang, for getting tracking shots. I''ll show how to use QuickShots using the DJI Fly App and a DJI drone.
The DJI Mini 4k uses the RC- N1c remote control and here and it connects to a phone. Extra batteries for the DJI MIni 2, Mini 2 SE of the Mini 4k can be purchase for around £60 or $80.
Press the H or pause button once and it will pause the drone in flight whilst a long press will initiate RTH or return to home button. If the drone is more than 20 metres away, pressing it will bring the drone back to where it started.
There are 3 fl;ying modes: Sports mode is the fastest, with Normal in the middle and Cine the slowest speed.
At 20% battery the remote control will start to beep loudly letting you know you’re low on power and at 10% battery the drone will return to home and land.
One really interesting setting is the ability to switch the gimbal from Follow Mode to FPV in the DJI Fly App. First Person View mode will unlock the gimbal axis to move with the drone.
You can take 12mp, in JPEG and RAW and you can capture single shots, 3 bracketed photos for HDR images and timed photos between 2 and 60 seconds.
In the UK, if your drone isn’t a toy and has a camera then you’ll need an annual Operator ID from the CAA which costs £11.13 per year and it’s recommended you get a free Flyer ID at the same time. There’s a 40 question online test.
The DJI Mini 4k truly is one of the best budget starter drones. I hope this ultimate drone buying guide has been useful to choose the cheapest 4k drones.
So what’s next from DJI drones? There will be a number of drones to be released in 2024 including the DJI Mini 5 Pro and DJI Mavic 4 which look to offer the best 4k at 60fps and top video quality.
