After years of flying drones and RC models it's nice to find such an amazing drone without all the hype. Some characteristics: 1) calm. Given the size, it's amazing 2) Simplicity. For several minutes I was on reconnaissance missions over the stability of farmland3). Once the GPS is locked it's going nowhere. The Return Home feature worked flawlessly even after a 30 minute mission. 4) Delete management is a dream. Very handy, just remember to reorient the antennas from time to time so you don't lose connection because the drone flies home when it's flying manually or alternatively when it's on a mission. 5) The build quality is amazing. The case also allowed me to store a charge from multiple batteries that I ordered separately without having to cut additional holes. 6) I ordered the 8k version and using the digital zoom I was able to zoom in on a full frame human from 400ft and still maintain high quality images. I look forward to seeing what else Autel has to offer. It's far superior to DJI in my opinion, and the interchangeable attachments that you can buy separately make it a great multipurpose platform.
