I have this exact outfit. VERY, easy to fly. All u have to do is let go of the controls and the drone will stop and just hover. If it loses radio signal, it comes back to you. If u lose track of it and panic????......push one button and it comes back to you. 3 batteries and an awesome drone that takes nice pics and video for $167???!!..... this is a STEAL.

Edit: it also handles gusty winds with ease. It is a very stable drone.

In for one. Need something basic to scope out the property and check the roof/gutters on our 2 story house.

The refurbished Potensic Atom Fly More combo stands out as an easy, stable beginner drone with strong video quality, a 3 axis gimbal, return to home, and three batteries. It is described as very simple to fly, able to hover when controls are released, and steady in gusty wind. The main tradeoff is that it lacks collision avoidance sensors, so obstacle awareness is limited. Refurbished units have also arrived looking new, though the battery and charger contents should be checked carefully. A solid compact flyer if you want value and stability more than sensor protection.

  • The Atom models can be very easy to fly because releasing controls makes the drone hover.

    vmax84

  • The Atom setup can return to home on signal loss and supports one-button return if needed.

    vmax84

  • The Atom SE and LT models reportedly delivered stable flight with excellent range for earlier buyers.

    1CaesaR1

  • The Atom 2 can add 4K HDR, AI tracking for circling or following, and Cruise Control in the Fly More combo.

    Relik

  • The Atom drone lacks collision avoidance, so beginners may need to pass if they want that safety feature.

    Mikster1

  • Refurbished shipments can arrive as brand-new or overstock, but bundle battery counts may be wrong and require extra shipping.

    1CaesaR1

  • The battery charger power adapter cord can look previously used, and the adapter may get pretty warm during charging.

    IN41INXS

  • Cross-shopping Atom 2 combos can be confusing because the $480 bundle is clarified as including one battery while other combos include three.

Watching reviews on this now, seems like a good alternative to dji 4k mini?

Is this a good price for refurb?

Tempting price but I'm a beginner and it doesn't have collision avoidance so I would have to pass personally.

Potensic Atom are great drones. I have had the SE and LT models and they were all great. I am currently using Mini 3 and the two Atom models I had didn't have 3-axis gimbal so that was the only drawback on those. This model posted here does have the 3-axis gimbal. Other than that, great stable drones with excellent range.
The seller says refurbished, but both (SE and LT) I bought were brand new. Seemed more like overstock items. Do pay attention to what was shipped as the LT bundle I bought was supposed to have two batteries, but came with just one (standard). So I reached out and the seller did ship the extra battery separately to me.

I don't think the Neo has obstacle avoidance either. The controller is another $200 or something too

No, the Neo doesn't have collision avoidance sensors, but it's so light weight and durable that I've smacked into trees and it's fine. The newly released Neo 2 does have sensors, but it's only sold in China and no word if it'll be sold in the US, due to um circumstances. The cheapest dedicated controller for the Neo or Neo 2 is like $140. Otherwise you can fly it short range with a phone app or in follow-me mode.

I would spend a bit more on the Atom 2. It's every bit as good as my DJI mini 2 and it has a lot more smart features plus Potensic has a new controller with a built-in screen that is releasing tomorrow for $280 or you can buy it with the Atom 2 for $480. I'm releasing a video review of the new controller at midnight tonight central time on my channel.

A comparable Atom 2 combo costs double ($340): https://www.ebay.com/itm/286887964527

Does the $480 combo with the new controller come with one battery or three batteries?

The price brackets are so far apart that it doesn't make sense to cross-shop. I wouldn't call it spending "a bit more".


UPDATE: Found cheaper Atom 2 combo for $264: https://www.ebay.com/itm/286790941731

That's with one battery. The fly more combo with the new PTD1 controller will be $599. These are the prices the Potensic told me. The listings are on Amazon but are not available yet. I was told they would be available at 8pm Pacific time tomorrow Nov 5th.

My coworker bought this exact model and showed me the video it produced and I was shocked, it was really good quality. He said he loves it.

Costco Drone Alert: Are they a real threat to DJI? User reviews needed! I saw a ($369) bundle at Costco with 3 batteries and then some for Atom 2.
