You guys have built a nice unit with the atom 3 axis…not once in even high winds have I had a horizon issue… keep up the great work and keep adding cool features in the updates… keeps it fresh
I have bought two Atom drones I absolutely love them. So I decided to try the A20 it absolutely exceeds all of my expectations I’m a member of Potensic Drone world Atom series. A man named David Weikel took me under his advice. He taught me every thing I needed to know about the Atom with three access gimble. I’m sure he taught many people.I believe that he is an asset to your company. It would be great if you could give him some sort of compensation. He is a great asset to your company. I just bought the updated A20 I have had many drones and the A20 is awesome. If you come out with a new model let me know. I’m definitely a Potensic fan. Keep up the great work. 👍
I want the latest update for the firmware and the one that makes the sound work and a few other new features thanks
These are some great improvements! I am especially happy about the gimbal calibration as that’s something I’d written to Potensic about in the past. Can’t wait to go out and check out some of these improvements. Zoom on the camera is another fantastic enhancement all ATOM pilots are going to love. Take that, DJI! :)
