DJI Mavic Pro

DJI’s Mavic Pro is an interesting departure from the company’s usual offerings which catered to professional environments. It’s a prosumer product built for the enthusiast that’s designed for portability – it can actually be folded into your pocket (albeit a large one).

When the Mavic Pro arrived in our offices, the reaction was unanimous: holy ♥♥♥♥, it's small. The folding drone is roughly the size and weight of a hefty Italian sandwich. This compact form factor, I'd come to learn, is a blessing and a curse for the Mavic Pro — emphasis on the blessing.

This drone practically flies itself. The stability is top notch. Has a phenomenal "return to home" function, if it loses signal it will return to where you took off automatically. I use it with my 7+ and Mini4, both will fit directly into the remote with no additional hardware needed.

My interest is primarily photography, if you want a drone to just fly there are cheaper options. The Mavic pretty much flies itself, so you donu2019t need experience to use it. The set up and operation are straightforward, however the instructions provided and on their website are limited.

Great bit of kit and so user friendly compared to other flying machines and drones,This has a quality about it that leaves the rest behind,Up and flying in 1 min from taking out the box,And lifts off the ground and stays there like a hawk,Flys around so smooth and battery life is 25 mins depends...
