I decided to mix & match various video clips, mostly made during POTA activations over the last two years. The Mini 4 Pro has been my constant companion during that time, whether POTA-traveling or just being a tourist.
It is the smallest, lightest and cheapest full-featured drone made by DJI and I may be selling it soon. We are sailing to Tokyo in a few weeks and the cruise line won't allow me to bring a drone onboard, even if I offer to let them keep it in storage until we disembark.
After Tokyo, we fly to Vietnam and the plan is to buy either a Mini 5 Pro (due to be released in September) or the foldable DJI Flip at DJI's local store in Hanoi. There's no way I'm gonna be in Vietnam (and later, Thailand) without being able to make drone video!
If I buy a drone in Vietnam, the Mini 4 Pro will be for sale when I return in November.
And yes, I am pursuing the possibility of ham radio operation in these countries with my new 15-60m QMX (thanks, Hans!). Thailand is looking more do-able than Vietnam...

There are a lot of drone/videographer YouTubers who unknowingly put me in my place every time I think I have a good bit of footage, but they do provide inspiration to try harder! Thanks for the comment Dave. Your QRZ.COM profile is amazing - I urge others to take a look!
