Once upon a time (okay, last year), I met my new best mate: a tiny flying robot called Zoom.
Not just any drone ā 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, āWait, YOU filmed that?!ā š²š
Whether youāre a gadget geek or someone who still thinks Wi-Fi works by magic šŖš¶, Iām here to tell you: the DJI Mini 4 Pro Fly More Combo is one of the best buys youāll ever make.Let me take you on the journey⦠strap in! šā”
š¦ Whatās in the Fly More Combo? (aka The Smart Personās Bundle)
Ah yes ā the Fly More Combo. This is not ājust a droneā box. This is the āIām ready for adventureā pack.
Inside mine, I got:
ā DJI Mini 4 Pro (aka Zoom!) šøā DJI RC 2 controller (with a built-in screen) š®ā Three intelligent flight batteries ššš (not just one ā because who flies for only 30 minutes?!)ā Two-way charging hub š (charges all the batteries and acts as a power bank!)ā Spare propellers & screws (because mistakes happen, especially after cider) š»ā Propeller holder š”ļø (keeps it snug when folded)ā Carrying bag š (classy, compact, and fits perfectly in Vanillaās glove box)
Thatās adventure-in-a-box, ready to chuck into the campervan or take on a road trip. šāØ
š« Why Fly More is a Total Game-Changer
Hereās why having the Fly More Combo is next-level:
š Longer flight time ā Three batteries = 100+ minutes of fun, not just one short burst.šØ Rapid recharge ā That hub is a genius little gadget. Plug it in at the campsite or charge off a power bank.š Stay organised ā The bag keeps Zoom safe, clean, and looking professional ā no āmessy gear guyā here!ā” On-the-go charging ā 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. š š¬
⨠Zoom + Vanilla = A Love Story
For those who donāt know, Vanilla is my pride-and-joy campervan š ā and Zoom is like her techy little brother.
Together, theyāre unstoppable:
ā I launch Zoom from quiet campsites, capturing sweeping aerial views.ā I shoot Vanilla parked up against golden sunsets š, next to misty forests š², or overlooking dramatic cliffs šļø.ā I edit footage at night using CapCut or Pixelmator Pro on my MacBook, with Sonos music humming in the background š¶.ā I post videos that make people say, āWhere IS that? I want to go there!ā šš²
With the Fly More Combo, I donāt worry about running out of battery halfway through the good stuff. Iām fully equipped, every time.
š± 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 itāll make you want to show strangers in the pub. š»
