I have enjoyed my DJI Mini 2 far more than I expected. Drones over 250g need registration/certification in many places (including the US). The Mini 2 weighs 249g and has a 4k camera.

You do mostly get the same shots in one area so if you don't move around much it might get boring quickly. If you take weekend trips, or are nomadic, it will be a lot of fun.

I believe that DJI just opened up their developer API for it, so some third-party apps (or maybe your own, if you're technically inclined?) will hopefully start offering things like waypoint missions as well!

Yes the Litchi app already takes advantage of this on Android. Seems DJI will make the iOS apis available at the end of March and then there will be waypoint modes and tracking features on iOS as well.
