I have an older Potensic drone. It's a good company -- they're gaining ground / marketshare on DJI.

This particular model is known as a good entry drone. (Though it's far more advanced -- and cheaper -- than the entry level one I got 7 years ago.)

It has zero avoidance features.

I will say I like it as a good intro drone though I wish it would let me set the joysticks the way I want them.

hey guys just dropping by to ask if there are any avoidance detection features, you know, because all consumer drones in this price range have every bell and whistle DJI offers for $4000


seriously tho, I have this whirlygig and it's pretty neat. I've used it a dozen times maybe.

Check the price and take a guess. Those sensors cost money.
