DJI Mavic Pro Drone Fly More Bundle

This thing is fantastic. Being a seasoned quad pilot, I've owned several older Phantoms and have several self-built quads and nothing compares to this in terms of complexity and technology in a small package. The build quality is immaculate. The amount of engineering that must have gone into this quad is very impressive. All moving parts have tight tolerances and feel good to operate. There is a lot of aluminum on this quad. Working in the sheet metal industry, I can immediately tell all four arms are made of aluminum, which explains their stiffness despite being so thin. Much of the hull is also aluminum and there is a large heat sink along the bottom of the craft which can get relatively hot. There are internal fans that kick in to cool down the SoC and radios and lots of vents in the largely aluminum hull also. This Platinum version is unbelievably quiet compared to my other quads. No loud shrieks or high pitched buzzing normally associated with brushless motors and the ESCs that run them. Only the soft beating of the props, which are the quietest props with the most unique design I've ever come across. There are youtube videos that illustrate this better than I can explain with words. I get about 26+ minutes in the air with slow flying, which is better than my other quads also. The thing practically flies itself if you want it to. The quality and range of its video feed (Occusync) is what sets it apart from any of its competitors and nothing else really compares at this time to be honest. There is a (very) slight lag compared to purely analog signals so I don't recommend racing with it (which is not its primary purpose), but for the trade off you get no static in your video feed and anywhere from a 720p to 1080p resolution (your choice) at up to 4+ miles away with no interference or obstructions. Having always flown with analog signals prior, this is almost unheard of. As a very portable flying camera platform that folds up and fits into a small camera shoulder bag, it's pretty hard to beat. The Mavic has its own on-board black box for recording flight data (which you have access to) in case something goes awry in flight. I have pulled several flights worth of data from it just out of the box, before I even charged up a single battery, which means that the manufacturer has flown my quad many times for testing and QA purposes before I even received it. This gives me piece of mind that my quad is a quality piece of kit and should be air worthy the moment I need it to be. The software it interfaces with on your PC can calibrate every on board sensor including the main flight control unit and gives you access to firmware upgrades. The DJI Go 4 software works well on my Galaxy S7 and personally I haven't had any real issues with it despite what other reviewers have mentioned. No app crashing or disconnections so far. Despite being easy enough to fly, I absolutely do NOT recommend this quad to straight beginners. This is a PROsumer product (it's even in the name - Mavic Pro), meaning it is very much meant for the enthusiast who already has lots of knowledge on flying expensive camera platforms. There are hundreds of different settings to learn and tinker with and if you are not detail oriented and technical, some of those settings can cause a VERY expensive mishap to occur. Even the camera gimbal is extremely sensitive and a tiny, fragile piece of machinery that needs to be taken care of. I can see it being the first thing to break in the wrong hands. My opinion: Learn to fly with cheaper, less complicated quads first. Learn to take control and get used to flying and adjusting the orientation of a quad in flight without the aid of GPS and hand holding. Learn about how quads work and the technology behind them so you can quickly recover from any situations that may occur in flight. You will thank me later, believe me.
