Once upon a time (okay, last year), I met my new best mate: a tiny flying robot called Zoom.

Not just any drone — Zoom is my DJI Mini 4 Pro Fly More Combo drone, aka the ultimate sky companion, aka the pocket-sized legend that makes people stop mid-sentence and say, ā€œWait, YOU filmed that?!ā€ šŸ˜²šŸ‘

Whether you’re a gadget geek or someone who still thinks Wi-Fi works by magic šŸŖ„šŸ“¶, I’m here to tell you: the DJI Mini 4 Pro Fly More Combo is one of the best buys you’ll ever make.Let me take you on the journey… strap in! šŸŽ’āš”

šŸ“¦ What’s in the Fly More Combo? (aka The Smart Person’s Bundle)

Ah yes — the Fly More Combo. This is not ā€œjust a droneā€ box. This is the ā€œI’m ready for adventureā€ pack.

Inside mine, I got:

āœ… DJI Mini 4 Pro (aka Zoom!) šŸ›øāœ… DJI RC 2 controller (with a built-in screen) šŸŽ®āœ… Three intelligent flight batteries šŸ”‹šŸ”‹šŸ”‹ (not just one — because who flies for only 30 minutes?!)āœ… Two-way charging hub šŸ”Œ (charges all the batteries and acts as a power bank!)āœ… Spare propellers & screws (because mistakes happen, especially after cider) šŸ»āœ… Propeller holder šŸ›”ļø (keeps it snug when folded)āœ… Carrying bag šŸŽ’ (classy, compact, and fits perfectly in Vanilla’s glove box)

That’s adventure-in-a-box, ready to chuck into the campervan or take on a road trip. šŸŒāœØ

šŸ›« Why Fly More is a Total Game-Changer

Here’s why having the Fly More Combo is next-level:

šŸš€ Longer flight time — Three batteries = 100+ minutes of fun, not just one short burst.šŸ’Ø Rapid recharge — That hub is a genius little gadget. Plug it in at the campsite or charge off a power bank.šŸŽ’ Stay organised — The bag keeps Zoom safe, clean, and looking professional — no ā€œmessy gear guyā€ here!⚔ On-the-go charging — That hub doubles as a power bank, topping up your phone, GoPro, or even the controller.

For me, flying Zoom at places like Barmouth, Llangollen, or the Great Orme? Fly More means no limits. I can fly, land, swap batteries, fly again, and keep the magic rolling. šŸŒ…šŸŽ¬

✨ Zoom + Vanilla = A Love Story

For those who don’t know, Vanilla is my pride-and-joy campervan 🚐 — and Zoom is like her techy little brother.

Together, they’re unstoppable:

āœ… I launch Zoom from quiet campsites, capturing sweeping aerial views.āœ… I shoot Vanilla parked up against golden sunsets šŸŒ„, next to misty forests 🌲, or overlooking dramatic cliffs šŸžļø.āœ… I edit footage at night using CapCut or Pixelmator Pro on my MacBook, with Sonos music humming in the background šŸŽ¶.āœ… I post videos that make people say, ā€œWhere IS that? I want to go there!ā€ šŸŒšŸ“²

With the Fly More Combo, I don’t worry about running out of battery halfway through the good stuff. I’m fully equipped, every time.

šŸ“± The App, The Controller, and The Feeling of Flight

The DJI Fly app + RC 2 controller = smooth, fun, and surprisingly easy.

The built-in screen is bright (no faffing with your phone), the app layout is friendly (no engineering degree required), and the live footage is so good it’ll make you want to show strangers in the pub. šŸ»

You can:

  • See where Zoom’s going

  • Switch camera modes on the fly

  • Check battery levels

  • Set automated flight patterns

  • AND — my personal fave — hit Return to Home when you want Zoom to come back like a good little robot dog šŸ•āš”

šŸ”„ Top 5 Reasons I LOVE My Zoom (Fly More Style)

1ļøāƒ£ Freedom to film ANYWHERE.From campervan adventures to country hikes, Zoom is ready. Vanilla + Zoom = unbeatable duo.

2ļøāƒ£ No battery stress.Three batteries = all-day filming. Plus, the charging hub is pure genius. šŸ”Œ

5ļøāƒ£ Memories in motion.I’m not just taking photos — I’m capturing memories, places, moments, and moods. And with Zoom, they look epic.

šŸŒ Zoom Around the UK (and Beyond)

Zoom’s been with me at:

šŸ‡¬šŸ‡§ Shugborough Estate — golden fields, winding rivers, majestic bridges.šŸ–ļø Barmouth Beach — soft dunes, crashing waves, Vanilla parked perfectly.🌁 Pontcysyllte Aqueduct — soaring heights, water reflections, drone chills!ā›°ļø Great Orme — dramatic cliffs, sweeping sea views, and sheep looking suspiciously up. šŸ‘šŸ‘€

Next? Maybe Scotland, Cornwall, or even Europe. With the Fly More Combo, I can go bigger, fly longer, and capture it all.

šŸ’¬ Final Thoughts: Should YOU Get the Fly More Combo?

Short answer? YES.

Long answer?If you’re even thinking about a drone, and you want:

āœ… More flight timeāœ… Less fussāœ… Maximum funāœ… Gorgeous footage

…then the DJI Mini 4 Pro Fly More Combo is 100% worth it.

It’s not just a gadget; it’s an experience. A hobby. A passport to new perspectives.

And if you’re like me, you’ll name yours, too — because once you start flying Zoom, it’s not just a drone. It’s a travel buddy, an artist, a storyteller, and a very clever little friend.
