Those two things don’t really go together well, unfortunately.
If you’re dead set on only buying one, go with a durable “cinewhoop” like a Diatone Taycan. It’ll likely survive the abuses can carry a GoPro or RunCam, and will be useful if you decide to go deeper in the hobby. Otherwise I recommend starting with a “mini whoop” like a BetaFPV 2S Pro or a Mobula8.
Realize that you also need goggles and a radio (controller). Those will set you back $400 and $200 respectively if you’re trying to “buy once cry once”. If you’re seeing if you’re into it, the BetaFPV 2S Pro “RTF” (ready to fly) kit is a good introduction, as is the Emax Tiny Hawk 2.
If you’re interested in getting into the hobby, let me know and I’ll get you my contact information so we can chat.
- ghostly_s 5y agoI’m not interested in FPV/goggles, just aerial photography. Looks like one of the cheaper DJIs probably makes more sense for me.
- Ancapistani 5y agoAh, for sure. In that case, I recommend the DJI Mini2 if you’re going with new. If you want to save a few bucks, the DJI Mavic Mini “Fly More kit” can be had for ~$300 used. It includes three batteries, a charging bank, and everything you need except a cellphone to use for a screen. I took this with a Mavic Mini when I was just getting started with it: https://youtu.be/-uZYxg8FmY8 https://youtu.be/-uZYxg8FmY8
- ghostly_s 5y agoVery nice, thanks.
