Potensic Atom SE Lightweight 4K EIS Drone Flight Test Review
This fast and lightweight little drone includes electronic image stabilization, a true 4K camera, and does not require registration in most countries.. Find it here on Amazon https://amzn.to/3ZfGzWT or here for international customers https://store.potensic.com/products/atom-se.
Pros:
- Small folding drone with carrying case for maximum portability.
- Weighs only 244 grams with battery. Does not require registration in most countries.
- Video signal is very strong and clear, with minimal lag. It's easy to fly this drone FPV with your phone. Can also fly very fast in Sport mode (up to 16 m/s, 36mph), and almost feels like you're flying a FPV racer.
- Highly accurate GPS/GLONASS/BeiDou system, provides rapid/accurate satellite lock-on. Drone will automatically return and land where it took off from on command, or loss of signal, or low battery.
- Optical flow system for indoor stabilized flight.
- Belly Time of Flight (ToF) sensors for very stable altitude hold hovering.
- Brushless motors for durability.
- 7.2V 2500mah Li Ion battery provides up to 31 minutes of flight time (I got 25 minutes with high speed flying).
- Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) provides electronically stabilized video without the need for a multi axis stabilized gimbal. This provides weight savings, along with improved flight time as the battery does not need to power a gimbal.
- True 4K camera with video resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels at 30 fps. 1/3" 13MP camera takes still photos at 4608 x 2592 pixel resolution.
- High resolution video and photos are recorded to an onboard TF card. Video and photos are also recorded to your phone, at lower 1080p resolution.
- Controller does not utilize WiFi. Connection to your phone is through provided on the go (OTG) cables. The controller includes a built-in signal amplifier/relay that provides up to 4 Km control and FPV range. But remember that most countries do not allow you to fly at such ranges. In reality, this feature is meant to provide for strong control and FPV signals in areas of high clutter or interference.
- "Potensic Pro" app provides FPV views, telemetry information, camera options control, and advanced flight control modes of follow me, orbit position, waypoints, and headless mode. Potensic Pro is available on Google Play here https://bit.ly/PotensicPro and the Apple App Store here https://bit.ly/Potensic-Pro
Cons:
- The drone only has electronic image stabilization, and does not have mechanical leveling of the camera (as with a multi axis stabilized gimbal). If flown on a windy day, the video may be tilted as the drone tilts to fight the wind. Unfortunately, EIS alone is unable to correct this tilt.
- The drone's follow me feature would point the camera in my direction, but the drone would not follow. Potensic is aware of this issue, and may correct with a future firmware update.
