Sub 250g Category


The DJI Mini 2 weighs in at an astonishingly light ~242 grams, almost as light as the average smartphone which you might be reading this blog on. For example, it is more than half the weight of the Mavic Air 2. Because the DJI Mini 2 is so lightweight, it benefits from being in the Open A1 category as it is under 250 grams. The category was created for basic and low risk flying meaning it is the best class for a starter drone to be in and help you spread your wings as a drone operator! Remember - "Even small drones and model aircraft could injure people if you don’t fly them safely."

Safe Flying

Being in the Open A1 category this means that the DJI Mini 2 is able to be flown closer to people than 50 metres and you can fly above people; as long as you are not putting them in danger. It is a bit of common sense that is needed to ensure you are not putting anyone in the public into danger. An example of this is not flying over crowds that cannot disperse if your drone malfunctioned and fell from the sky. More information about the flying categories and rules can be found on our blog.
