Autel EVO II Pro is a bit large for a small drone, coming in at 4.5 by 4.3 by 9.0 inches (HWD) and a 2.6-pound takeoff weight. It's highly visible, too, with a bright orange finish. The orange pops against blue skies and green fields, making it just a bit easier to spot than drones with duller finishes.

In its standard flight mode, the EVO II tops out at 22mph and offers all-around obstacle detection. It's very useful for working lower to the ground, where trees or other obstructions may be an issue. When you're flying higher, above the trees, switching to the Ludicrous mode gives footage more sense of motion.
EVO II Pro drone lets you set restrictions on how far away it can fly, but there's no enforced geofence around airports and other restricted flight zones. That puts the onus on you to know if you're allowed to take off from your current location.
