DJI has launched another new drone. The Phantom 4 Advanced is an upgraded version of the original Phantom 4. The Phantom 4 Advanced comes new intelligent flight modes, including Gesture and Tripod, along with an upgraded FlightAutonomy system with five vision sensors, a forward-facing obstacle avoidance system and dual-band satellite positioning (GPS and GLONASS). As a result, the Phantom 4 Advanced is able to hover precisely in places without GPS and fly carefully in indoor and complex environments. As well as a boosted camera and more intelligent flight modes, the Phantom 4 Advanced has an increased storage capacity, using a 128GB microSD card, and a flight time extended up to 30 minutes.

Design

DJI have taken the next big step in multirotor design and development by creating the smartest flying camera on the market. The Phantom 4 Advanced. The Phantom 4 Advanced builds on the brilliant features of the Phantom 4. The Phantom 4 Advanced’s camera is equipped with 1inch 20MP sensor capable of shooting 4k/60fps video and burst mode stills at 14fps. The adoption of titanium alloy and magnesium alloy construction increases the rigidity of the airframe and reduces weight, making the Phantom 4 Advanced similar in weight to the Phantom 4. The FlightAutonomy system adds dual rear vision sensors and infrared sensing systems for a total of obstacle sensing and obstacle avoidance. If you are looking for the best aerial camera platform on the market today then you’ve just found it, the Phantom 4 Advanced by DJI.

Features

The Phantom 4 Advanced — comes with a more potent camera and precise controls for capturing aerial imagery. The device’s onboard camera is an upgrade from the first Phantom 4 drone. It touts a 1-inch, 20-megapixel sensor along with a mechanical shutter. The camera is capable of recording 4K videos at 60 fps. The Phantom 4 Advanced drone supports 30 fps H.265 4K videos and 60 fps H.264 4K videos, both at 100 Mbps bitrate.

So, regardless at what frame rate one is recording their video it should look detailed. However, in terms of sensors for obstacle identification and avoidance, the Phantom 4 Pro still has an upper hand over its successor the Phantom 4 Advanced. The Phantom 4 Advanced, despite being a new launch, comes with five obstacle sensors whereas the Phantom 4 Pro comes with six. Moreover, the base model of Phantom 4 Advanced comes only with downward and forward obstacle recognition.

Equipped with the FlightAutonomy system made up of 5 vision sensors, forward-facing obstacle avoidance system, dual-band satellite positioning (GPS and GLONASS), and ultrasonic rangefinders, the Phantom 4 Advanced is able to hover precisely in places without GPS and fly in complex environments, noted DJI.

Apart from these, there are quite a few similarities between the Phantom 4 Pro and the new Phantom 4 Advanced. Both the DJI drones comes with intelligent features such as, ActiveTrack, Gesture and Tripod, TapFly, and Draw, which enable smooth automatic flight modes. The top-end Phantom 4 Advanced+ variant comes with a 5.5-inch 1080p display, which has been incorporated into the controller. The screen brightness is twice that of mainstream smart gadgets and makes the drone ideal for outdoor aerial imaging. Additionally, Phantom 4 Advanced users can now expand the storage capacity of the drone with the help of a microSD card. The new DJI drone supports memory expansion of up to 128 GB and also comes with extended flight time of up to 30 minutes.

Conclusion

DJI has made the Phantom 4 Advanced one of the most affordable, intelligent and powerful flying cameras you can find…and an economical alternative to the Phantom 4 Professional as well. you can Buy From TOMTOP at $1349
