Whether you’re looking for a drone that can fly around your backyard or one that can be used for competitive gaming, we’ve got you covered. So, let’s dive in and see what gaming drones are worth checking out!
DJI Mini 3
The DJI Mini 3 Pro is an exceptional compact drone that is perfect for those looking for a powerful and feature-packed option. Despite its small size, this drone packs a punch and is a significant upgrade over its predecessor, the Mini 2. With a premium price tag, the Mini 3 Pro offers users a superior camera, obstacle avoidance sensors, and a range of advanced features that are typically only found on larger drones. The camera on the Mini 3 Pro is capable of capturing stunning 4K video and 12MP stills, making it perfect for photographers and videographers.
The DJI Mavic 3
The DJI Mavic 3 is the ultimate compact drone for those who are looking for power and versatility. This drone is equipped with a dual-camera system that combines a large 20MP Four Thirds sensor with a convenient 162mm telephoto lens. This setup allows for high-quality photos and videos. The Mavic 3 is designed to be portable and lightweight, and it is surprisingly lighter than its predecessor, the Mavic 2 Pro. The Mavic 3 also offers a long flight time and a range of intelligent flight modes such as ActiveTrack, Point of Interest, and more, which allows users to capture stunning shots with ease. With its powerful camera and advanced features, the DJI Mavic 3 is the perfect compact drone for anyone looking for a powerful and versatile aerial photography and videography solution.
DJI Mini 3 Pro
The DJI Air 2S is a great option for those who prioritize image quality over size. It features a 20MP 1-Inch sensor, similar to the one found in the older Mavic 2 Pro, which provides better light-gathering abilities than the Mini 3 Pro. Its compact, folding design makes it easy to carry around and the Air 2S is still a top choice for hobbyists and professionals in need of a larger sensor. The drone may not be the newest in DJI’s line-up but it still offers excellent image quality and a great combination of features for photography and videography.
BetaFPV
The BetaFPV kit is a great option for beginners who want to try first-person drone flight at an affordable price. The bundle includes goggles, batteries, and a console-style controller, allowing you to practice in simulators. The drone itself is lightweight and ready to fly right out of the box. FPV flight can be prone to crashes, but the BetaFPV drone is built to withstand most impacts. It also has Turtle Mode, which allows it to right itself remotely. Three speed settings and three flight modes offer flexibility for learners to improve their skills. The Normal mode is easiest to fly, while the Manual/Acro mode requires more precise control and throttle regulation.
Evo Lite+
The Evo Lite+ is a flagship drone from Autel’s line-up, directly competing with the DJI Air 2S. It has a similar spec sheet, with the capability of shooting 5.4K footage at 30fps using a 1-inch sensor. However, it surpasses the Air 2S and Mavic Pro 2 with its 40-minute flight time and adjustable aperture (ranging from f/2.8 to f/11). The Lite+ model doesn’t have the fourth-axis stabilization of its Evo Lite sibling but its larger pixels on the sensor give it better low-light performance. This drone is a great option for those looking for a powerful, capable and high-performance drone for aerial photography and videography.
FPV (or first-person view) drones
The DJI Avata FPV drone is a great option for beginners looking to try out the exciting world of first-person view (FPV) aerial filmmaking. It’s a niche product but offers a fun and unique flying experience. The drone is operated using a combination of DJI’s Motion Controller and one of the two versions of the DJI Goggles, which allows for indoor and outdoor flight. The Avata is capable of capturing impressive 4K/60p video footage making it a great option for those who want to try their hand at FPV videography. It’s a fun, easy-to-use drone that is perfect for beginners looking to get into the exciting world of FPV flying.
Mavic Air 2
The Mavic Air 2 may no longer be the number one drone, but it’s still a great option for those looking for an affordable all-around drone. It’s less expensive than the Air 2S and the Autel Evo Lite+ and may be a better fit for those who don’t need the larger 1-inch sensor of the newer models. We called it the “sweet spot” of drones in our review, making it a great option for those who want a balance of features and price. It’s still a great drone for photography and videography, and its compact size and excellent features make it a great option for those looking for a versatile drone.
