ATOM 3-Axis Gimbal 4K GPS Drone, Under 249g, 96 Mins Flight, Max 6KM Transmission, Visual Tracking, 4K/30FPS QuickShots, Lightweight for Adults and Beginners, Fly More Combo

Purchased the Atom 3 axis gimble fly more kit in February 2024. I have only put maybe 2 hours of flight time on this Drone as I have been busy with outdoor projects. Today I had some free time and thought I would get some Drone time in. When I powered on the Drone and entered the Potensic app, there was a Firmware update notice to version 3.4.5. I decided to go ahead with the update since I had a fully charged Batteries and Controller. After the update I noticed my Gimble would not stay in the neutral position and would drift all the way up on its own. So I powered everything off, exited the App and tried again with same issue. I tried calibrating the Gimble but it did not fix the issue. Tried calibrating the remote control and was not able to complete the process because the Gimble control did not respond correctly. Powered off everything again, this time I could complete the remote control calibration but the Gimble still would pan up all the way and would not hold the position set. Ok, I give up and try contacting Potensic support, we will see how good the Customer service is at Potensic. Everything else works like it should, just the Gimble issue. This a deal breaker for me because I bought this for the great reviews and image quality at the price I really hope Potensic will stand behind their product. I will update this review when/if I get a response from Potensic. After working with Potensic I decided this drone may be defective and returned it for a refund and went back to the drawing board to research another sub 249g Drone to purchase. UPDATE - Potensic reached out to me and offered to send me a new drone Kit with single battery to give the Potensic another try. Sure glad theyHorizoe received the new drone today 7/24/2024 and immediately started charging the Battery and Remote control. After a full charge I went thru and loaded the Potensic app, calibrated everything and went out to do some test flying. WOW! The Camera Gimble worked flawlessly, it did not move up or down by itself and the Horizon was dead flat. The video looked great, smooth and seemless. Battery life is very good and charges quickly. I went thru all the preconfigured quick shots, tried the GPS mapping, RTH feature, shot video at 4K 30fps, took pictures and I have to say this Drone really performs extremely well for the price paid. I am extremely glad Potensic reached out to me and asked me to give them another chance. So in conclusion, I would like to give a much deserved shout out to Potensic customer service for making EVERY EFFORT to add another happy customer to the ever expanding number of people who are flying Potensic Atom Drones, and thank you for not giving up on me! I would recommend this Atom Drone to family and friends and to anyone who is looking for a really fun quality Drone to fly!

The video is of my second day flying the drone (and I only used two batteries to film that) in Korea. I had never flown a drone before, not even a toy drone, so I was quite nervous despite having watched some youtube tutorials. Wow, it is SO EASY to fly!! Even on my first flight, after about 20 minutes I felt confident using it. Also, I was surprised by how tiny it is, haha. It's literally about the size of my hand. The plus side is it's lightweight and compact enough to carry around anywhere, but it's hard to keep an eye on it in the sky, especially at a distance. On my first day, I spotted some deer running in a field. It was late afternoon and I was so thrilled to get footage of deer prancing along. Luckily I stopped and hovered for a second, moved the camera angle up, and saw I was just feet away from a smashing into bridge! Please check your surroundings!! It has so many perks. The customer service team is very responsive and helpful. The quality of the footage is fantastic at the price point. Quickshots and tracking are great, especially for a beginner like myself. The "fly more" package you get around 90 minutes of flight time, and can charge the other batteries via USB C while you're flying. Again, it's really easy to use... the controls are sensitive enough that you can pan/turn/lift, etc. as slowly or quickly as you'd like. The only negative is it doesn't have obstacle avoidance. Of course, that would make it more expensive, but just be careful of all the surrounding and play it safe. If you can't see the drone yourself, then please use caution and plan the route carefully. It can be hard to judge how close things are. I'm glad the company regularly takes feedback from customers and makes updates. I'm particularly happy about the option to cancel the automatic return to home and do it manually. I would highly recommend this for anyone wanting to get into drone photography or video, if you have no experience, and are on a budget. This is the one for you! Do not hesitate, just get it!!

Potensic went above and beyond to resolve an issue I was having with my drone. They sent a new drone in less than 24 hours after diagnosing the issue and provided prepaid postage for me to return the malfunctioning drone. This was even after the 30 days return window. This company will have your back and cares about the customer experience. In terms of the product itself, I thought it was pretty good even when malfunctioning but having a fully functioning, unit I’m blown away with the performance. I can attest it can reach and sustain 36mph in sports mode which is on par if not better than most drones in this class. The camera quality is good and 3X zoom is achieved by lowering the resolution to 2.7K, which is almost telephoto. As mentioned before by others, it also charges the batteries in parallel, so you could in theory just continuously fly the drone with the three-pack combo, only stopping to swap batteries. It's an excellent starter drone. If you are considering this as your first drone, or haven't flown drones in years, line of sight is crucial for a reliable connection and to stay legal. It's an excellent flyer. If I wanted any more out of this drone it would be the option to have a larger capacity battery with a built-in remote id module and maybe beacon lights for night flying to stay compliant. The standard kit is a steal, but I guarantee you’ll be wishing you had the extra batteries in the combo package. If you have a protective case on your phone place the phone higher on the controller so the plug is protruding and not inserted into the tuck-away, or just stick something in the tuck-away area like a piece of paper. The additional thickness of a case can cause the end that plugs into the phone to be stressed at a slight angle.

Me gustó mucho el dron solo que la caja del dron venía muy maltratada y pensé que era usado y venía abierta la caja

جودتها جيده والتصوير فيها ثابت، انصح بشرائها

جيده جدا اعجبتني

This is my second drone from Potensic (had the Atom SE prior). This is the only drone you need for your professional content creation. Let me explain: Price/Quality ratio: Easily the best there is in that price range period. Remote: Simple, intuitive, natural are the qualities that comes to mind when using it. Make sure to align the drone and the antennas for best performance. The remote opens to get your phone in the middle to connect to the app/remote/drone. The controls are sensitive enough for a smooth experience and a precise one. It is reactive and the controls are easy, even for a beginner. App: A clean interface that does a really good job at guiding you when you need it and letting you be autonomous when you feel comfortable enough. A manual is included in the app so any questions you have can be answered on the spot. The app lets customize your flight experience and is easy to use while the drone is in the air. Drone: With a weight of 249g, no need for registration or anything. The level 5 wind resistance makes it easy to fly in almost every condition without the trajectory of your flight being affected. The small size of the drone makes it easy to bring along for any trip. I do recommend keeping it in the designated case to make sure you don’t damage it. The drone looks well done and professional. With a microSD card of reasonable memory size, you can take shots all day and then easily transfer to your computer or phone to then edit or just look at your footage. This drone is solid but be always mindful of your surroundings. GPS tracking will get you your drone back if you venture too far, and it will lend exactly where it started with the auto return key and auto lending feature. Camera: A 4k with 30fps and 12MP lets you make nice and clean videos and pictures. You can take your content creation to the next level with the intelligent modes, and it has never been this easy. The camera is responsive and stable. With the 3-axis gimbal, it will make your content amazing without having to edit for hours. Fly More Combo: I absolutely recommend this combo as you get a charging station, a case and three batteries of around 30 mins flight each (depending on the flight mode: sport, normal, video). The batteries hold their charges, and the flight time is decent with one battery. Customer service: Responsive and helpful, they will make every effort to help you and will stay with you until completely satisfied. Potensic is a rising company that easily sets the bar as to what a drone should be and do. I absolutely recommend this drone for beginners, all the way to professionals. This drone will get you there. Will definitely by again when new models are available !

This Potensic Atom 3 Drone is incredibly easy to set up and fly, even if you’ve never used a drone before. The controls are intuitive, and the auto-return home function ensures you don’t lose it. The camera quality is sharp, and the stability in flight is impressive for a lightweight drone. The only issue? The battery life is a bit short—you’ll want an extra battery if you plan on long flights. 🔹 Easy to use: Simple controls, great for beginners 🔹 Simple setup: Ready to go out of the box 🔹 Negative: Battery life could be longer
