Unremovable camera and gimbal

Compact legs mean being more choosy with take-off and landing zones

Lighter body means high winds make flying trickier than with a Phantom
Abstract: When I was researching where I could get the best Neutral Density filters to accommodate my newly acquired Mavic Pro quadcopter from DJI, I came across PolarPro in the forums.People recommended them and their great customer service so I reached out to the...
In the United States, the Mavic retails for US$999 – some US$200 cheaper than the Phantom 4. In Australia, for some reason, both cost the same AU$1699. Both drones are outstanding all-in-one midrange camera drone options, and each offers its own advantage...

So, er, yeah: price. The DJI Mavic Pro isn't a cheap toy – but then that's because it's not really a toy. DJI positions the model rather eccentrically, describing it as a consumer model but sticking ‘Pro' in the name. The reality is that plenty of videogr...

I said recently that I thought the DJI Mavic is one of the most impressive pieces of consumer tech out there, and that's 100% true. It's @#$#@ brilliant. When you hold it in your hand (because, literally, it fits on your hand) you can't help but marvel at...

Abstract: When the Mavic Pro arrived in our offices, the reaction was unanimous: holy shit, its small. The folding drone is roughly the size and weight of a hefty Italian sandwich. This compact form factor, Id come to learn, is a blessing and a curse for the Mavi...

Folds into very small space for storage, Easy to fly, Takes great quality video, Long wireless range
Some glitches in video, Controller too small to hold tablets
The DJI Mavic Pro pretty much ticks all of the boxes that drone pilots look for. It is small, portable, easy to use, easy to fly and takes good video. More important, though, it doesn't compromise much on these features. It flies like a larger drone, with...

Excellent flight speed, Great flight time, Superbly maneuverable and easy to fly, Awesome tracking and following features, Very decent video and photo recording, Very compact folding design, Easy to set up
4K camera can't be removed or swapped, 4K video quality and bitrate could be better, Tap autofocus buggy
All things considered, we consider the Mavic Pro to be one of the best consumer hobby drones with 4K video recording that we've yet reviewed. We absolutely recommend this drone for users who want a powerful UAV for playing around with. However, if you're...
