    DJI has released Mavic Pro RC Drone on September 27 with 743g weight for more portability. The difference between DJI Phantom 4 and Mavic Pro is not big, even we can consider DJI Mavic Pro as the foldable version of Phantom 4. So we will make review about DJI Mavic Pro.

    Design

    f67000a8b7ea4eb1227_%e5%89%af%e6%9c%ac

    If you experience DJI Phantom series, you must be surprised about Mavic Pro compact design. Because it can be packed in the bag which other can’t  realize, so we experience DJI Mavic Pro very easily, especially for those drone lovers.

    As a pocket rc drone, Mavic Pro uses foldable design, after folding completely, four arms will be very close to body, it looks like defensive state and very compact. Meanwhile, this drone is as large as water bottle which can be put in the bag without pressure. Most importantly, it doesn’t need container, which is good news for outdoor lovers.

    f65000eb1b5c877f484_%e5%89%af%e6%9c%ac f67000a8b7fe7646773_%e5%89%af%e6%9c%ac

    DJI Mavic Pro foldable design has the other advantage that when every flight ends, only fold the arms and then you can take it, there is no need to remove the blades. When you fly it again, only need to fold the arms to fly. The propeller will start to fly after the motor starts, which can let players finish flying preparation in short time.

    DJI Mavic Pro uses plastic material. After it folds completely, we can find Mavic Pro has longer front arms than the latter arm, and the motor place is higher. The two frame of the motor supports the body lifting to avoid gimbal to touch the ground, and there is a orange red signal light under every motor.

    f64000547aa44ece63e_%e5%89%af%e6%9c%ac

    In order to meet users’ need, Mavic Pro rc drone is also equipped with the newly-designed foldable remote control, which is very compact and exquisite, but also comes with display itself to show the height, distance, GPS signal and other information of RC drone in numbers, users can control the remote control, smartphone, and the combination of smartphone fixing the bottom of remote control to operate which can not only meet the needs of new players quick learning, but also meet higher needs of professional players. In the drone, there is back button, smart flying mode in pause button to keep flight safe.

    Mavic Pro has 12MP camera for JPG and RAW format shooting, and it supports 4k video of 30FPS and 1080p video taking of 96FPS. The three- axis stable gimbal that is the smallest one for DJI can ensure the stability of aerial photographing, and is better than electronic image stable system. The aerial camera can flip 90 degrees to take photos vertically, combining with the auto focus camera of the focus distance, 0.5m, DJI Mavic Pro can take selfies

    f64000547ab182586cb_%e5%89%af%e6%9c%ac

    There is stent and shielding protection when you don’t use Mavic Pro camera and gimbal , but when you use, you need to take the stent and shielding off. When flying, if it has shielding protection, it will affect the picture image to take seriously.

    There is visual system under the rc drone, which is the data feedback of FlightAutonomy OS to detect speed, height, and accurate hovering, etc. There are two ultrasonic sensor at the middle bottom of the drone, and there are two optical flow sensors outside to reach cm level error  for landing.

    Trial Flying

    Although this UAV is very compact in design, but you need to be careful about choosing the flying place.

    1018000798ac2c0f6721_%e5%89%af%e6%9c%ac

    f6b0006a91b80dd3eeb_%e5%89%af%e6%9c%ac

    Compared with other DJI Phantom products,when Mavic Pro lost touch with the ground or is under low power, it will return to us automatically to keep the drone safe. Mavic Pro also has the other function like accurate landing. To be specified, two camera under the drone will take sets of photos when flying every time. During the returning and landing , it can realize more accurate landing operation by matching the vision and flying record.

    Smart Operation Experience

    In interaction of human and the drone, the smart visual technology can let the Mavic to achieve touching flying, users can touch the phone screen gently, it will change the direction according to your requirement and it will avoid obstacle objects automatically.
