Join Jack from Half Chrome as he gives you a first look at the most anticipated sub-250g drone upgrade. We're diving into the massive 1-inch camera sensor, the new Lidar obstacle avoidance system, the dynamic 180° rotating gimbal, and the improved O4+ transmission. Learn exactly how to import the Mini 5 Pro, what to expect from flight time, and whether this new travel companion is worth the premium and the hassle. (Key Features & Highlights) This is more than just a minor update. The Mini 5 Pro brings high-end features to the mini class: 1-Inch CMOS Sensor: Delivers truly dynamic and vibrant video quality. Lidar Technology: Next-level obstacle avoidance (though we test where it fails). 180° Rotating Gimbal: Allows for unique, vertically-oriented quick shots.
