This review will be a bit long and a little all over but I’ll try to touch on as many points as possible. At first I purchased the much less expensive Mavic Mini November 2019 as my introduction into the hobby. I Wanted to make sure I’d enjoy it before I purchased something much more expensive and it end up in the corner of the garage collecting dust all its life. Not even 3 weeks later I purchased the Mavic 2 Pro and am itching every day to go out and fly. Can’t say enough about this awesome piece of equipment . The picture & video quality is stunning Right out of the box on auto and as I learn a little more every day how to adjust the camera and video settings, both are getting even better! Even in the high winds, the 3 axis gimbal with Hasselblad Camera keeps the videos smooth as ever. You would never even know I’m flying in 20+ mph winds comparing different videos. I don’t recommend flying in those conditions but I couldn’t help knowing how it would perform and it doesn’t disappoint. It is stable as ever. The gps will have this thing hover in the same spot for the entire battery if you like and the prediction landing hits it’s mark every time on the dot. The Digital telemetry readout on the controller and screen is very nice & helpful to have. It monitors everything you can think of from rotor speed, battery voltage of each individual cell & temperature, actual craft speed, altitude, distance, you name it and it tells you everything and anything. If you are flying and run out of battery and crash, it’s your own fault. The 360 degree sensors for accident avoidance work flawlessly. You would really have to try and crash this thing to have an accident when the avoidance system is turned on as I have tried and is undoubtably, smarter then I. I would like to see this feature work in sport mode as well but then again, who really needs to fly 45-50 mph to get video and camera footage. All the smart fly features such as active track work very well. Anything I’ve tracked from cars to people on quads and motorcycles works awesome. The active track was a big selling point for me as I wanted to track myself at the track on my quad and again, it works wonderfully. I’ve read some negative comments about the stated battery life from DJI. They state 31 mins of run time which I could see in windless perfect conditions but we are Flying outside in the elements and wind speed and things like that will
Make the drone work harder obviously changing the flight time. On average I get 25 mins every time out and I don’t completely drain my
Batteries, no reason to stress them like that. I do recommend buying the separate fly more combo for the extra batteries and other dji products it comes with. Lastly I’d like to talk about the range on the Mavic 2 Pro. I live in a heavy interference area. Meaning a lot of WiFi and Radio interference that messes with the range of R/C products. I’ve flown a few miles out in my heavy interference area and had no issues. To have building, houses, trees and a whole mess of other obstructions in the way and not have to worry about my expensive flight camera equipment is very reassuring. Now get out in an open area with nothing in the way like a lake or acres of farming fields and it will go for Miles. Just messing around I’ve easily
Gotten 5 miles of distance out of the Mavic 2 pro before turning around. I don’t need to fly that far but the claims made by DJI and my shear curiosity made me do it. Again, it didn’t disappoint. I believe it his is the best Quadcopter out there for us the consumer who doesn’t do professional work. Even if you require something like this for your job, the Mavic 2 Pro provides professional results.
