DJI Mini 4 Pro Flight Test of ActiveTrack and APAS Obstacle Avoidance
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 окт 2023
- Wow! The DJI Mini 4 Pro is really an excellent achievement in engineering. In the video I put the little drone's tracking ability to the test. I fly the drone and using ActiveTrack and POI mode and use it to follow my E-bike. obstacle avoidance and APAS are off the hook! This was a great test of the drone's tracking and OA capabilities.

Great job may the Lord Jesus bless u for not cursing but being a gentleman in your videos which are all great and fun and interesting to watch
Thank you so much!
'Nuther great video, Marcus! I am always blown away by the capabilities of DJI drones. That 360 obstacle avoidance is truly amazing. I especially love that artificial drone shadow that it superimposes on the screen. A very nice feature.
Keep'em coming!
Thank you for watching Fred! DJI hit another homerun with this drone! 🙂
Top man Marcus, great test and keeps you fit. Many thanks for sharing how good this Mini 4 Pro is
Thank you! I'm really enjoying the Mini 4 Pro Shaun! I know you are too!
Excellent! Thanks for sharing.
I'm glad you enjoyed it Del! Thank you.
Your excitement is infectious. Enjoyed watching this nail biter. M4P held it's own.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thank you! 🙂
Great Job, Marcus!!! Loving the Mini 4
Me too! DJI gave us a good one!
Fun test and demonstration. Thanks for the Mini 4 Pro content.
It is absolutely my pleasure George! Thank you!
Wowsers! I'd say it passed with flying colors. Oh and that battery is like the Energiser Bunny!
Thank you John. I was happy with the result.
Very well done Marcus. Thanks for the video. I see that you are enjoying your Mini 4 Pro as much as I am enjoying mine.
I love it Bob! 😀
Thank you for the words of encouragement Marcus@@IdahoQuadcopter
Very nice. Towards the beginning when you were going in circles I thought the glare from the sun would throw it off but it didn't. Very nice
I agree, I was impressed with this little drone!
Hi Marcus my friend 👋😀.
Impressive drone. The DJI mini 4 Pro is great 💯👍. And the beautiful Fall colors amazing 💯.
Hope you had a great day today and thank you so much for sharing this wonderful video and God bless you all everyday 🙏.
Thank you Shane! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. 🙂
Great video, Marcus!
Thank you Capt. Ray!
Pop a wheelie next time, Marcus.
Ha! Smart a$$. 😂🤣
.... or pop a prop in sport mode
The way it lost you was very interesting. Reflections on those big windows. You were chatting away saying how perfect it was, abd it damn near went to school... the hard way, lol.
I think it was headed for the lunch room. 🤣
Great job
Thank you!
Awesome video, thanks. But it's super anxiety inducing watching it around those trees. Awesome little drone.
Thank you! The Mini 4 Pro did quite well staying out of trouble. 🙂
I really enjoyed that Marcus. The challenges you gave it were realistic, and when the drone lost you, it was in situations where there was a lot to contend with.
I have seen tracking challenges that were far to extreme and totally unrealistic, and I don’t think you learn anything from them. The Mini 4 Pro is clearly an impressive bit of kit
I agree Pete! DJI has really stepped up their tracking, especially in combination with APAS. It's really fun watching the AI at work. Thank you for stopping by!
Very good test, mini 4 Pro looks awesome 👌
Thank you! This one is a keeper!
A great enjoyable video to watch and now I'm even more torn between the air 3 and the mp4.
I would love to see you doing a speed and distance flight within safe limits of course.
Have fun with your drone 🤪
Thank you so much! Both of them are great drones.
ActiveTrack seems to get better with each drone release. But I still say if you had the option of using GPS tracking to your controller, it would never loose you. I think activetrack was invented so you could follow someone/something besides yourself. Great testing, and thanks for sharing Marcus.
Yes, this is next level tech Ron! We're going to have a lot of fun with this one! Thank you for watching!
It was cool to see you flying around on the bike with the little Mini 4 Pro chasing you. The tracking isn't perfect, but it's pretty dam close 👍
Thank you, Alan! DJI is getting better at tracking with each iteration.
I put up a video on my channel of my Mini 4 Pro using active track to track me as I walked my dog. It did a really good job.
Excellent! Yes, the tracking is quite good!
Great stuff Marcus..never knew you were training for Le Tour de France🤣🤣🤣
Ha! 🙂 I've friends tell me that they got some exercise on their ebike. 😀 That's some easy exercise!
*It seems that Dji has done a good job with this Mini 4, congratulations on the video mate, greetings 😊🫶*
Yes, thank you, they have done a bang-up job with the Mini 4 Pro.
Down the wrong rabbit hole buddy.. This drone is not all what youtubers claim it is.
Great review Marcus! Jeff/Annapolis
Hey, thank you very much Jeff!
Wao this is exactly what I was expecting from m3 as a next video.
Is there anyway you will bring 360 way point as your next video.
Welbeck here.
Stay safe bro.
My regards to your family and your subscribes.❤
Thank you, Welbeck! That one is coming soon!
cool test on your ebike
Thank you, Eddie! I need a Super73, like another RUclipsr friend has. 😀
Hi Marcus, a very nice video showing APAS while tracking, thank you for sharing. Tracking was 100% perfect when the drone had line of sight. It would have needed x-ray vision when obscured. IMO if DJI offered the ability to GPS track the controller, the drone would never lose tracking.
Thank you! I'll bet we see an enhanced version one of these days Richard. 👍
Nice demonstration of APAS and tracking. Next time you need to try it on your motorized skateboard Bill Kyle style!😂
Ha! I'll leave that to you John! 🤣
Hi Marcus.....Boy that Mini 4 is about 90% of skydio. Great job.......👍
DJI keeps improving! Thank you Jim!
Very Nice Marcus ! I am on the fence here , i am thinking of this one or the Air-3 ! Basic straight foward Flying and Filming is what i do but this is still good to know what this Bird can do .
If price is not a consideration, for me it would be the Air 3 for sure. 👍
@@IdahoQuadcopter, that's what I am thinking !
Nice job! Wish they would have put the aircraft sensing feature on the Mini 4 Pro that they have on the air 3.
It doesn't always work. Probably 85% of time it does
Thank you! I agree, I like the ADSB system too.
Always enjoy your videos sir! Great demonstration. I just purchased my mini 4 pro today and cannot wait to fly. I think the drone lost you due to the reflection on the windows there.
Thank you! You will really love your new Mini 4 Pro!
How can I get information on the next Florida drone meet?
@@coni6573 Search So. Florida Drone Meetup on Facebook. All the info should be there. 👍
Thank you!
i think in few aspects (tracking from behind) its even a smal step back from the mini 3 Pro. The problem is that the obstical avoidance sensors dont see as far as on the Mini 3 Pro because of its Fisheye lenses (18m vs. 25m). You can realy see that it reacts a few meters too late on obsticals and get too close on it. if you are walking thats fine- if you are on a Bike you get problems. Without waypoints i would have not upgraded to the Mini 4 Pro.
I like both drones. 👍
For it to track you higher or lower you would need to use the 360 inner and out circle. You can set height for inner and outer circle with other focus track settings that are new. The exact landing works and well but you gotta have your compass calibrated. In fact it out performs my Mavic 3 Pro every time eveyway. My landing is flawless everytime with m4p best yet in experience. Also I think it's a glitch, not recognizing you. I don't think it's the bike. My m4p does that with me if I look at it wrong just with me no bike. I hope you are enjoying your m4p.
Thank you. I agree, it's a wonderful drone!
Can you turn down the beep beep beep sound
I currently own the Mini 1 Mini 2 MA2 and air2s really thinking about this one because its so quiet and the 360 obstacle avoidance
You can lower the volume on the RC. 👍
I believe this is more a function of Active Track 360 than the actual hardware (mostly) Here is why Action Track 360 has the others beat: You can run it effectively at MUCH LOWER. Flying the drone above or THROUGH the tree canopy presents more issues than it solves. Keep the drone UNDER that csnopy and suddenly all you have to contrnd with is tree trunks and the occasional low branch. This will not be quite so good mid-winter when the sun is low, and bare thin branches await the little Mini 4 - ready to reach out and SWAT IT. Like a bug. But for now... its the Active Track Champion. No time for losers, cause Mini 4's the champion. Of the World. Now sing with me:
We Will We Will TRACK YOU.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You're right John! I would not do that same flight without leaves on the trees!
What more issues are there flying above the trees?? Air molecules?
at 20:36 did you have subject scanning turned on?
No, there would have been a + on the screen. Normally you can simply draw a box, and it will recognize the subject.
a great drone tracking is great,,went on windswept roberts video last night all he did was slag off the air 3 and the mini 4 pro how can you do that if you dont own them he has neither of them lol
Ha! I love Robert's channel! I do understand your point though. 🙂
why not try getting off the bike then choose to track yourself then climb back on the bike
Yep, didn't think of it. 👍
My apologies sir I mean m4
I knew what you meant. 🙂
Didn't you have the other drones up higher? Seems to me like they were about 25' to 30' high. This flight you only have it about seven to eight feet high. Not a fair test in my opinion.
Ha! I do my best. 🙂 Thank you very much!
No-one uses drones in the real world. I wonder how it would go down flying in the city around the people and cars etc and not just empty or vacant lots ???
The tech will continue to improve. 👍
It DOES NOT miss all branches.. Why don't you guys tell the absolute truth.. Jeeeez, I reccomend some of you watch other youtubers videos on this rushed out problem filled drone.. And as negative as I sound.. Find out for yourselves. Leaves are not branches.
I call'em as I see'em. Thank you.
@@IdahoQuadcopter methinks you call em as you please em ( DJI I mean.. chuckles)
It´s all your fault if I´m soon going to spend 1000.- € ... 😡
Ha! 😀 That's part of the DJI magic.
Not interested in this drone at all... And buddy the obstacle avoidance sucks. Have a look at all the steadily building complaints as DJI quick cash grab mini drone b4 the regs get stricter gets pushed out.. Quite amusing to see youtubers cringing now as less clicks for revenue.. Happy flying.
It's the best Mini drone ever produced. 👍
@@IdahoQuadcopter nope.. You obviously have not seen all the complaints yet.. I know you guys will say anything to suck in as much likes for ad revenue... Oh well. Mini 3Pro and Mavic 3 CLASSIC are both very capable machines and no need for this quick cash grab mini drone from DJI... Bet you will say the same for a mini 5/6/7 etc etc it's becoming nauseating now with some youtubers that are so under DJI's thumb.
Why are you so mad at a drone video 😂😂
@@IdahoQuadcopterI love DJI drones great video
Do your telemetry in Imperial SAE not metric we are in the United States 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Love me some metric! 🙂 We need to switch.
I did a similar video yesterday and I crashed my Mini 4 Pro. @marionappa.
Congratulations! If you can't trust obstacle avoidance 100%, you can't trust it at all. DJI's active--track sucks. It's a gimmick. Nobody uses it in real life.
I'm so sorry to hear it. Hopefully you had care refresh.
It was only three props so it wsa no that bad. I tried to have it lead me on the bike and that was not a good idea.@@IdahoQuadcopter
