      @TheVerge  6 лет назад +4

      That's what you get with the Air. Still, I wish the camera was a bit better... but it's hard to beat how compact this drone is. So easy to carry around. - Vjeran P.

  • @mitchelronaldfilms5590
    @mitchelronaldfilms5590 6 лет назад

    I bought one last week, I wish I didn’t.
    The most distance I manage to get was on a beach flying out to sea was 250 meters before it lost rc signal, image went shocky and blurry with delay after 80 meters allready.
    Why I don’t know all is up to date, I have to keep using my P4 as my magic air is 1 big disappointment.
    I hope this gets fixed soon.

  • @xxFusilado
    @xxFusilado 6 лет назад

    What's that about the wifi connection as opposed to the radio one? I live in a country with awful internet connections so I don't know if the air is right for me. Care to explain? (sorry if it's a noob question).

    • @CalvinHodgson
      @CalvinHodgson 6 лет назад

      The WiFi comes from the controller itself and has nothing to do with internet speeds. This makes the controller a mini router, so to speak, between you and the drone.
      Between the two, enhanced WiFi and radio, there isn't much difference aside from the transmission technology built-in.

  • @mcauleyrj
    @mcauleyrj 6 лет назад

    Mavic Pro and the Mavic Air both connect to the remote via RF (radio frequency). Occusync (Mavic Pro) uses radio frequencies at 1.4mhz, 10mhz, or 20mhz. The Mavic Air (Enhanced WiFi) uses radio frequencies at 2.4ghz or 5.8ghz.

  • @bobuk5722
    @bobuk5722 6 лет назад +2

    Hi, thanks. Well balanced review. Every drone has pro'sand con's, it's a question of balancing out what's best for the application in mind. I hope that the necessary regulatory envirionment can keep up with the rate of autonomous development, there's a lot of good stuff that can come from the evolving drone tecchnolgy. Bob.

  • @BDrones
    @BDrones 6 лет назад

    Great video as always personally I think the Mavic air is only meant for adventure people who don’t need a long range or a lot of my time frankly from a personal or aerial photographer snap. I think for $200 you are getting a better drown by going with the Mavic pro or just get the new inspire I’ve got rumor that a announcement will be made end of March for the Mavic number two

    While talking frame rates you say, "you can also do slow motion up to 120 frames per second, of course that one's 1080p" ` 1:26
    There is nothing of course about that at all. 1080p at 120fps is rarefied territory and demands complete absence of phrases like "of course".

    I want to buy one of the Mavics but I don’t have any hobbies that justifies the price. For those of you who’ve purchased a drone, if you’re not a content creator what activities are you using your drone for? Once the novelty wears off, I tend to place my toys and gadgets on the shelf where they collect dust 😒
