I tested the new DJI Flip drone and you can read what I think about it's design, functionality, performance and more.

At $439, the DJI Flip could be a good starting point for people who don’t typically buy drones. You can unfold it, launch it from your hand with a single button, land it on your hand again, or optionally use joysticks, all while capturing higher-quality photos and video than the immediate competition.

DJI Flip combines advanced imaging technology with user-friendly features and safety innovations, positioning itself as an ideal choice for content creators looking for a reliable and versatile drone.

For over a decade, you couldn’t easily fly a DJI drone over restricted areas in the United States. DJI’s software would automatically stop you from flying over runways, power plants, public emergencies like wildfires,
