This lightweight little drone includes a 3 axis gimbal, 4K camera, electronic image stabilization, 6Km range, and does not require registration in most countries. Upgrades over the previous Atom SE include greater range, new optical quickshot modes, and a 3 axis stabilized gimbal.

- Small folding drone 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 very 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 2230mah Li Ion battery provides up to 31 minutes of flight time (I got 24 minutes).
- Three axis stabilized gimbal, along with Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) provides very stable video.
- 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.
- 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 6 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 optical quick shot modes of circle, follow, boomerang, pull away, rocket, and spiral. Also include GPS waypoints flight capability. Potensic Pro is available on Google Play here bit.ly/PotensicPro and the Apple App Store here bit.ly/Potensic-Pro
