I am looking for an alternative to a DJI Mini 3. I would like to take photos and videos. Unfortunately, I haven't found a real alternative yet. Do you have any recommendations?

I hear that Ukraine is a good manufacturer of drones now. I think they mainly ship to Russia though.

...sorry.

One way and the arrival of the delivery is rarely a happy date

Are you looking for European made drone? Cause I'm sure those do not exist (outside of Ukraine). Even European designed might be hard to find, if that exists at all.

Sorry I can't give a recommendation, I only fly self built drones for fun (aerobatics, freestyle), and have been out of the hobby for a little while, too. Even in the diy space, DJI is a powerhouse with their air unit providing control and live video. There are some alternatives these days, at least.

At least from a European manufacturer would be great. But all I could find was way to expensive for me (Parrot). I'm not paying several thousand Euros for a drone.
