My EX2mini arrived today. After the normal setup, I realize that there is njo sd card slot to save pictures.
The transmitter has a picture button, but what's the point if I can't have a sd card tom save the pictures ????
I looked all over. I even open up the canopy and there is no card slot anywhere.
What am I missing ?
 
I forgot to mention...….
EX2mini has a 5.8g camera. I have the D43 monitor for the instant images.

I really really wish Eachine gave us the Wifi fpv version, particularly the EX2H which I truly love.

1. Bugs three mini clone, aka EX2 mini doesn't have an sd card slot, you'll need a separate dvr to record video. That camera button on the controller is non functional.

2. Wifi doesn't work well with FPV, the sooner you accept this fact the better lol.
 
Newbie's experience of first 2 days of "trying" to fly the Mini...….

In the other thread, I mentioned this mini and I said "It scares the dickens out of me" and that "its altitude hold is mia."
Well, it still scares the dickens out of me, but I am getting better. I don't crash it every 30 sec anymore.
Its Altitude Hold is NOT mia. It's working fine. The only mia is my "hands-eyes-brain coordination".

To be truthful, it is too fast for a newbie like me. I shouldn't have bought it. It is too small, too light and the motors too powerful.
I won't return it. I like it, but it will be quite awhile before I will be proficient piloting it.

My relative success with its big brother EX2H gave me false confidence. I over-estimated my ability to handle a "racer type" drone.
I'll keep trying to fly it. May The Crash God Be with Me. ha ha ha.
 
It's a rough start for everyone learning to fly the brushless ones that aren't jam packed with sensors so crashes shouldn't be too unexpected. Gotta break some eggs if you're gonna make an omelette. Initially it's best to just practice altitude hold/throttle control on your own

Vid there is pretty good I think with regard to getting started steps with the more manual control quads also if you can hook up your transmitter to your computer somehow (many brands sell a USB receiver that shows up as a USB joystick to your computer and can bind to the transmitter), then using a simulator is the best way to get FPV experience without actually flying and crashing your quad but hands on time in the field works too assuming you can learn to crash without breaking things (often). Even if you need to use another controller for simulator vs real flying think the sims are worth checking out FPV freerider has a free demo along with Velocidrone have also heard a lot of people are fans of "lift-off" but haven't tried that one myself yet.

Another good started vid for "manual" flight:
