Perhaps when your testing for sound, you might try not talking while taking the readings.
Fair point, but the microphone on the decibel meter has a directional pickup pattern, so us talking behind the meter has very little impact. Thanks for watching.
And, of course, *you're**
Lol
He literally watches it switch 3 times, tells what he sees, watches three more changes then speaks... 🤦🏻♂️
Would have been a better test to hold the drone in one spot and sit the mic in one spot so that the position is exactly the same. I get it, just a simple comparison and the platinum is noticeably quieter.
The Platinum puts out a lower frequency too, which is more agreeable to human ears. That makes it seem much quieter than it really is.
Ed Felty exactly, the props change the frequency more than the volume. We hear it less, as does the device.
@unrepeatable raddish YEAH I AGREE, AND THERE NOT £100 LOL around £10
11:55 " keep it facing that way and I'll do it from behind" probably the greatest line I've ever heard in a drone related video
You guys are very professional! Thanks. It is new props for my gray one.
Thanks for the good video. It would be interesting, how long the "old" Mavic flies with the new props. Did you test that?
The quality of these vids is insane
When you do a sound test, stop yapping. The viewers at home want to hear the sound difference between the two drones too.
Will do! Thanks for the comment!
Lol, seriously. "I'm going to test the decibel level by standing just as close as the sound source and shout on top of it!"
agreed, a good video spoilt by annoying verbal decibel readouts during comparison, i wanted to actually hear the drones running not the yapping
Yes, my thoughts exactly! Why shout loudly whilst doing a sound test??
Honestly I am glad your read out the decibel levels since we could not see the meter. Thank you.
you guys are the best making these vids!
11:57 B laughing at Kelly saying "I'll do it from behind" xD
So much good info packed in this video, yes it's not a scientific comparison but its a great and very honest reference!
Drone POWEEEEEEERRR... ohh yeaahh SUBSCRIBED =]
Sweet!
thanks for a great video. Wish I would have seen it before I bought my Mavic drone but I am very happy with it
Best line... "He has two balls in his mouth."
I enjoyed the "...and I'll do it from behind...", myself. :)
Get your mind out of the gutter
🤣
Great job, thanks guys.
I wonder if the lower rpm on the grey Mavic with new blades will be more demanding on the motors in the way of torque (the thrust or lift required has not changed)? If that was the case, motor life could be reduced.
You know this is an excellent video. Good job . Very insightful ,fun and informative .
Thanks! We really enjoyed making it.
+pablo9364 Your comment looks fake AF I'd say a generated...
what do you recommend for around $150? I already have GO PRO, looking for just a follow me feature so I can mount my camera
Question; Has DJI enhanced the build of the gymbal for the Mavic Pro Platinum to avoid the problems some of the standard Mavic Pro's had?
Is there any data suggesting a better gymbal on the Platinum?
Thanks for the VIDS
I love to see adult men unite in shared enthusiasm, over technological toys for big boys. 😂
Sir the camera n gmble re same or there is any difference plz tell me which one is best
Time to order some new props!!! And props to you on the awesome video!! 👍
Thanks!
You guys did a great job breaking it all down! Now I know what to buy so thanks for the effort!
Sir, When your Mavic boots, Does it passes through NFZ message ? I've got my Mavic in June 2017. Never fly in restricted zone (NFZ). It allways booted without NFZ. Then in September I visited Alabama Huntsville Space Center. I try to take off with my Mavic. And now after that atempt in Space Center Mavic all-time boots and shows for about 15seconds NFZ message.
Sweet....great review guys.....keep up the good work
This was very thorough. Thanks.
I’m reeeeallly excited to get my Mavic Platinum next week!
UnderTheLens _ lolololol
Andrew Andron how can you afford it, they’re so much money
PresGaming, I can’t actually. I’m 54 and started this hobby a couple years ago with the Phantom 3 Professional. I don’t spend really any money on myself so my wife had no troubles with me spending a little on myself for a change. I’ve come to the realization I’ll never be rich, but I’m not going to deprive myself of the thing that reeeeally enjoy. If you want something bad enough, you’ll find a way. :-)
Andrew Andron awesome, Thankyou for replying, and for the good advice😀👍
No Problem :)
This was excellent! Thank you both so much!
Great video, love the quaity and depth however when reading the DB's on the sound test, your voice wouldve increassed the sound the meter picked up so not sure how that wouldve effected the results
Is there a flight simulation / simulator for DJI Mavic Pro?
I'd like to practice before actual flying
Awesome video! I just got my Mavic Pro today after using a Spark for 3 months. This video was very informative, new platinum props already purchased and on route
Great video, thank you!
Great video, simple, direct and very useful
Battery test, on a camera drone, without running the camera?
I'm a realtor who wants to use my mavic for photos only. Will one of these stay more stable in the wind vs the other or do they have the same stability and object detection?
thank you for the great video guys! Really informative and helpful.
Thanks!
One more point is that the Platinum runs at lower RPM because my guess is the props have a steeper pitch. With that in mind, I would not run the props on the old one because it might damage the ESC with a load they are not designed for.
hi can I use battery mavic pro in to mavic platinum
Greatest drone comparison video i've every seen. So funny and interesting to watch! You guys were a great team in this one :) Thank you all for the info and the final test at the end. Answered all my questions!
great vid! Want to get a platinum but don't know how to fly! what toy drone should I practice with?
That is AWESOME! I love the MAVIC PRO so much we had to go get one ourselves.
Are prop diameters and pitch the same? It may be a lower rpm because the pitch is higher. The new esc may be tuned for a higher pitch? Are the motors identical? Are the KV ratings on the motors the same?
Excellent review Kelly & B!!
Yeah, great video!! Thanks for the info!!!
Great test guys!!! Thanks for the comparison.
such a good quality video gj
the forward movement you speak of is called translational lift effect TLE which happens around 11-15 kts
great job thanks
Hey! Wich camera was used in the right side? Whats the model?
Well done, guys. On the flight time tests, I think you need to account for the fact that you used the new Mavic Platinum batteries for both drones; could it be that the Platinum batteries are optimised to improve flight (in the Platinum drone) and may therefore account for why both drones only show a slight variation in flight times? What if you tested the drones with their respective custom batteries?
Thanks again Kelly for another great review! And don´t forget to test which has better maneuverability and acceleration (for instance in the time necessary to get to 400 ft of height). Cheers from Argentina!
Thanks! I'm going to do more comparisons (like you mentioned), but this video was already pretty long, so saving it for the next video! Thanks for the comment!
Were you also getting wind noise from the down draft of the props during your sound test ... Could you redo with the sound meter next to the drone, vs under the drone.
Thanks for the video. Great comparison. Is it possible the dB was increasing as you we speaking the numbers? When you started speaking, you literally counted up, 89, 90, 91.... I have no idea. Just wondering if those meters are omni-directional?
Really great video! Helped a lot
Interesting video guys. I am seriously looking at a Mavic to add to my collection. The differences seem a little subtle but for only an additional 100.00 I would just shoot for the platinum.
Cheers

Do we have to register/license these MAVIC Pros with any of the local agencies? Thanks, I really enjoy your videos, thanks for sharing.
That was an awesome and so interesting review...I have a Spark and also the P4P+ just got a few weeks ago and really trying to hold back on another drone since I’m scared of my wife! Lol.
That's cool test...very informative updates i need.
I would have liked to see the Platinum props on the Mavic Pro for the sound test. Would there be a big noise difference between them? Would it be better to sell the Pro and get the Platinum or just upgrade to the Platinum props?
best review video i love how the dog came back haha
Very informative.
Great vid . I currently own the Platinum and couldn't be happier. Quick question...What model Oakley sunglasses are those ? I currently have the turbines but really like the look of those.
Thanks guys
So glad you did the penultimate test with the later props on the Mavic Pro 1. I have the MP1, with later style props and was willing you, from my sofa, to do the test.
Looking at getting my first drone this Christmas. Looking at the mavic pro versus the mavic 2 Pro. Not sure if I should spend that much money on the mavic 2 Pro as my first drone. What would you recommend? We actually have three weddings coming up this year oh, and I thought it would be cool to use the Drone to video and take photos.
great video Sir! why did it keep drifting? i thought the Mavic is rock steady! i dont understand why it will last longer in forward flight then hovering
What camera are you using to film ?
Where is the best places you recommend to buy dji marvic pro or platinum ? I’m thinking to buy one at Walmart because there a lot cheaper and no cost for restocking fee but I saw couple bad reviews there . I’m so confusing .need your help please!
I buy them directly from DJI. There is a link in the description of my video.
Do you know how long dose warranty cover with out protection plan?
Great video (great info + well produced + great sound), thanks!! (liked, subscribed, already bought my Mavic, so 2 out of 3 :)
Thanks!
Great info guys!
Thanks!
That was a great review!
Awesome video 🤙🏽
also, why have it below the rotters when the wind is blowing on the meter itself, even if it has a wind muff on it
Great comparison. One thing I have noticed is that since adding the low noise props to my Mavic Pro, birds (specificly Swallows) don't seem as aggressive dive bombing the drone. Has anyone else noticed this?
That's an excellent observation - will check that out. I have definitely had birds dive bomb the Mavic before. Not enough flight time with the Platinum yet to see if it's less offensive to our avian friends!
thanks :) very informative video
Thanks!
How does the platinum behave during flight manoevers e.g. strong wind in opposite to the pro ?
Testing this weekend.
Good info. I'd be interested in some flight times with the Maverick Pro and the new props.
The perfect sound measurement would be if they were held in place with something and measured from exactly the same distance, because while flying it's hard to keep the same distance. A few cm makes a lot of difference. The new one is still going to be much quieter like you tested, but the exact difference may differ.
*Great comparison!*
Just ordered the platinum pro! So excited 💯💯
Carluuchio Had mine since February. Your going to love it.
These are just superb
Thanks again for a great video! I'm a pilot in training, RC plane pilot, and a photographer. I need this drone! Question- If I am flying in safe rural area away from Class B, C an D, airspace and away from ALL airports what is the max altitude for the mavic or Spark?
]\
most likely 14,500ft. class g varies depending on surroundings
When you first spoke about RPMs you said the platinum had 480 475 490. At the end of the video when you tried the low noise propellers on mavic pro you said that the platinum's were 450. So which one is correct? I have the platinum and is about 495-500 when hovering.
Did you use the original Mavic battery in the Platinium?
Yes - They are 100% cross compatible and the same.
Yes, I know ;-) The biggest challenge with a test like that is if you use a new vs. old battery, the capacity might not be the same.
Great video guys.
Great video! Very helpful thanks.
When you purchase the drone from dji, can you use my affiliate link? It's in the description of my last video. Thank you!
A great test guys I have a phantom 4 pro I will add the platinum to my fleet. Well done
AWESOME VIDEO! THANKS FOR SHARING!
I was just handed a Mavic Pro to use for work. The majority of this video is about the battery life and decibels, but what I am looking for concerns the upcoming changes to Remote ID transmission. The Pro Platinum has been updated to have a Remote ID, but my understanding is it needs an external module. I can't find anything about the Mavic Pro, it's like it's been erased from existence. If I can get a remote ID module for the Mavic Pro Platinum, will it work (and should it even be the same ID?) as the Mavic Pro?
My understanding is that when using an external RID module, it will work on any drone that you attach it to. Also, I believe it can be used on multiple drones, but one at a time, but I'll need to learn more about that.
Would of been interesting to take the temp of the motors after the flight/hover test..If one is more efficient than the other it should run cooler also i would think..
So I see that the Pro vs. Platinum has some differences. The Mavic 2 Pro is now out. Can you do a comparison between the 2 and the Platinum?
Here's something you should test for. The Mavic Platinum was slow to wind up so does that effect performance if racing. I mean does the prop response show slippage when making extreme flight changes. Is it even noticeable. I'm thinking the slow start up is slippage between the motor and the blades at first start and then they sync once the blades are in motion but I could be wrong. There could be an efficiency factor designed into how much juice is used to start up which could add a few seconds to flight time.
Nope - there is no slippage between the motors and the blades. The spin up is designed do work that way. Not sure why, but it is definitely not slippage. The Mavic is not really a racing drone, but it is super fast in Sport mode!
I need one of those for my channel
God I love them
I actually do noise metering a lot in my profession. 3dBA difference is double (or half) the noise level. In reality its a different story because noise is perceived very individually.
they produce a diffrent freq. in my opinion. the platinum props are larger too. lower rpm
cheers for the review :)
Hi! is the same sensor and the same camera? No changes about that or the quality flight?
Yes - same camera and sensors. I am planning to do some other comparisons, but as I understand the camera has not changed.
Good job, very good video - I appreciate your time and information. Thank you!
Thanks to you for watching!
Yes, excellent video!! Thanks!
Awesome works guys!! Feels like a flitetest video!😁
Thanks Casey! This is a big compliment!
How do you know that it wasn't the props alone? Other comparison videos using the new props on the non platinum are gaining 1 minute off flight time as well with the old mavic pro.
Also, some of the sound being picked up in the db meter was probably the sound generated when the air hit the microphone. Needed to keep the mike out of the slipstream to get a good reading.
2:04 Why is the image so soft?
a test of the mavic with the new propellers and the platinum with the old ones will tell you so much more
These were my thoughts also
They DID test the new props with the Pro.
you've missed the point
and the point is buying every piece of crap with little upgrades?
Great video
Didn’t know Kevin hart love drones
Very important points made and tips thank you very much👍
Awesome! Thanks.
