Can you use the original Mini battery in the DJI Mini 2?

Фильм және анимация

Last week we tested the original DJI Mavic Mini vs the DJI Mini 2 in an endurance test and the Mini 2 came as the clear winner. We also mentioned that the original Mini batteries fit inside the Mini 2. Today we are showing you what we found when we flew the Mini vs the Mini 2, both of them fitted with the original Mini battery!

    Wonder if it would fly about less with heavier battery? More weight to accelerate and stop? Not sure if that is any different than hovering with more weight.

    So basically it's ok to save money by using the Mini batteries in the Mini 2 or SE Just a little less flight time, and registration needed? Do I stand corrected?

    I wonder if the Mini 2 will overcharge the Mini 1 batteries to 3.7V? Very interesting because the low cutoff voltage on the mini 2 is slightly higher which is better for the mini 1 battery. It would be hard to cycle out these batteries but its good to know.

    @@AtortAerials Well the low battery warning happens with any battery once you deplete it enough. It showed at the same time for both drones actually. It showed in the other battery test I made too with the battery it came with. That's normal. If you get it on take off, that's an issue, but it really shouldn't be unless your batteries are depleted before you put them in.

    It’s worth pointing out that the Mini 2 has LiPo batteries as opposed to the older tech Li-ion batteries in the original Magic Mini - the two chemistries offer differing performance and are designed for the needs of the drone they’re being used in. Don’t mess around with using incorrect batteries - just use what’s designed for the drone you’re flying!
