About the product
Yuneec Mantis G - a modified version of the portable selfie drone Mantis Q, which was released last August. The predecessor quickly gained popularity, having established itself exclusively from the best side as an easy-to-use drone adapted for the implementation of aerial photography in the selfie format. The drone's potential was praised in almost every aspect, with the exception of image stabilization, for which the Mantis Q was solely responsible for electronics, which ultimately did not allow it to fully compete with such drones as DJI Spark and Parrot Anafi. In the revised Mantis G, this unforgivable disadvantage has finally been corrected. The selfie drone has slightly increased in weight, size, and the overall functionality of the device has been expanded, which undoubtedly made the product even better. By tradition, let's start with the features of the novelty.
