Potensic Atom2 discounted to 6,709 CZK! 4K drone under 250 grams that flies for over half an hour and can track you

A 4K drone under 250 grams for less than seven thousand. The Potensic Atom2 Standard is available on Alza for 6,709 CZK with code ALZADNY20. Its exact weight of 249 grams means it falls into the A1 open category — you don’t need a pilot’s license, just online operator registration. For this price, you get 4K/30fps video, 48Mpx photos, AI tracking, automatic return home, and 32 minutes of flight. Reviewers on Alza repeatedly state that nothing better exists on the market for this price.

Quick summary:
✅ Makes sense as a first “proper” drone for beginners and advanced users alike — excellent video quality, stable flight even in wind, and intuitive controls.
⚠️ Consider that it lacks obstacle avoidance sensors (collision = your fault), the app is only in English, and the battery discharges when not used for extended periods.
💡 For 6,709 CZK, you get 4K video, 48Mpx photos, a Sony CMOS sensor, AI tracking, a 10km range, GPS with automatic return, a foldable design, and 32 minutes of flight.

Why not DJI directly

This is a question everyone asks. The answer from reviews is clear: for the same money, you get more with the Potensic Atom2. The basic version of the DJI Mini 4K costs similarly and lacks AI tracking, which automatically keeps the filmed object in frame on the Atom2. One reviewer directly compared video from the Atom2 with the DJI Mavic 3 (for 50 thousand) and writes that “the difference is not noticeable at all.” This is, of course, an enthusiast’s perspective, but it shows the quality of image the Atom2 offers.

The 1/2″ Sony CMOS sensor with an f/1.8 aperture produces good shots even in low light conditions. The gimbal stabilizes the image without shake. PixSync 4.0 technology ensures 1080p live transmission with 120ms latency over a range of up to 10 km. In winds around 5 m/s, the drone hovers stably in place. The propellers are 40% quieter than its predecessor. The SmartTransfer function downloads 4K footage to your phone via Wi-Fi at 25 MB/s — directly to Instagram or TikTok.

What to expect

The Atom2 does not have obstacle avoidance sensors — if you hit a tree, it’s your responsibility. One reviewer lost their unit this way. The Potensic Eve app is functional, but only in English — which can be a complication for beginners. The batteries have intelligent management and automatically discharge to 50–70% when not used for extended periods to protect their lifespan — but this means you have to charge before every flight, even if you fully charged the battery a week ago. The Standard version only has one battery (approx. 32 minutes of flight) — for longer shooting, consider the Fly More Combo with three batteries and a charging hub. And video is only in 4K/30fps — 60fps would be better for smoother action scenes.

Important: Even with a drone under 250g, online operator registration on the Civil Aviation Authority website and marking the drone with a registration number are required. However, you can fly without a pilot’s license.
