Deal Details
Specta are DJI drones made out of the DJI factory to bypass upcoming US restrictions.

I have purchased this drone and it is exactly the same as a DJI Mini 4K. There are no equivalent drones regarding quality and camera as this drone for $209.

The only differences are:
1) Specta/DJI batteries are not cross-compatible.
2) Specta uses a cloned DJI app.
3) Specta has no brand markings on their drone.
4) No warranty beyond Amazon or purchased Allstate warranty.

Community Reviews

This is essentially a DJI Mini 4K style drone with a lighter, non DJI ecosystem and no geofencing, making it appealing for travel and first time flying. The camera and flight performance draw the strongest praise, with reports of sharp footage, responsive controls, and solid results on trips. Battery availability is the main drawback, since only one battery is included and extras can be hard to find or costly. It feels like a capable compact drone if camera quality matters most.

Common Questions (5)

  • Only one battery is included, and an extra battery can add about $100. Specta-branded replacement batteries have also been bought separately for about $59 each, but availability can be limited by production backlogs.

  • It is effectively a DJI Mini 4K clone for most practical purposes, but it is not bound by DJI geofencing. That makes it a similar-size, similar-use drone with fewer location restrictions.

  • The camera is the main reason to buy this class of drone, so the better camera option is usually the better long-term choice. On range, it is described as 4 km versus 10 km for competing models, so the transmission distance is notably shorter.

  • It has been used successfully as a first real drone and can produce impressive travel footage, including in Bali. It is also described as responsive and easy to live with for the price.

  • No. Its stabilization is single-axis with electronic image stabilization, not a 3-axis gimbal.

So, back on topic, what WOULD be a good adult drone in this price range with these kinds of specs?
plenty of DJI sales today on SD, No reason to buy this.

Lots of good comments. I wound up buying the Potensic Atom SE refurb for $94 with 3 batteries and 1 yr warranty from eBay's Potensic store.

I just ordered a Potensic ATOM 2... Should I get this instead?
I'm wondering also. I don't know much about these drones but I ordered the ATOM 2 yesterday also for $240. I want to have the AI (?) follow feature and the atom has that from my understanding.

It was the "Costco" combo. I think it's the same as the fly more combo but comes with lanyard and SD card. It was eBay refurbished from the manufacturer. Their sale price, with the current eBay discount code brought it down a lot. I can get item number if you'd like it!

Specta does indeed have a clone for the Air 3S. And it might shock you but "Skyranger" has a Mini 4k knockoff with front obstacle sensing and better range than the Mini 4k."
Can you post the link for the Mini 4k with obstacle sensing?

$231.92 + tax through Potensic on eBay. Mine came in generic box, but it looks brand new.

Oh just search skyrover s1 on Amazon. It only has sensors on the front and bottom, and it won't go around obstacles, it will just stop. Will shoot 4k60. I think this is the best economy drone out there.
