The new criterion for user drones
DJI’s very interesting Mavic 4 Pro drone has been launched, but there are bad news. Because of Trump The tariffs And other market uncertainties (as Potential DJI ban), It is yet to be sold in the US and there is no word for when it will be, or for any price. It disappoints US buyers because the Mavic 4 Pro is a technically developed user drone.
With a triple-camera system in the wild-seen round gimbal, it can shoot with a dynamic range with up to 6K at 60 FPS, which can also defeat any drone and a lot of cameras. DJI has also increased the top speed, battery life and range, while the new lidar system improves the obstacle in low light through the system. In addition, the company has introduced a new RC Pro 2 controller with useful new foldable design.
I have had a Mavic 4 Pro for a few weeks now and it works better than the specs suggested. Although it is a little more expensive, this drone is very polished and effective, none remotely compared it to it.
DJI/Engadget
The most technically developed user Drone DJI’s Mavic 4 Pro of video quality, obstacle, tracking, battery life and improvements in range. However, it is not yet for sale in the US.
- The best video quality
- Lydar improves the detection of the night obstacle
- Activitrack produces 360 cool tracking shots
- Class-prominent battery life
- The long transmission range of any drone
- Sometimes fails to detect minor obstacles
- There is no agility
Design
Trademark feature, as we have seen from leaks and a Teaser last weekLarge round triple-camera “Infinity Gimbal” module on the front. The idea is to allow Gimbal to freely rotate for better stabilization and interesting camera angles. It increases the tilt-up angle from 60 to 70 degrees and allows the gimbal to be rotated at any angle, allowing the off-cartter “Dutch” camera angles for more interesting shots. In fact, it can rotate 90 degrees to provide a full-resolution vertical video for social media.
With that new housing and slightly large batteries, the 2.3 pounds of Mavic 4 Pro are heavy than 0.2 pounds Mavic 3 Pro. Propeller hands are updated, so they can be folded in any order, unlike the previous model. The body is more aerodynamic to increase efficiency and speed.
Putting it in the left propeller arm and forward facing lidar sensor, which helps to detect a nightly obstacle. There are also six ohmnidirectional fishy sensors in the drone, which work less than 0.1 luxes, which is equivalent to the night sky lit by the full moon.
Where the Mavic 3 Pro has just 8GB of internal memory, the Standard Mavic 4 Pro has 64GB storage (42GB of use), and comes with the creator combo version of 512GB of high-speed storage (460GB of use). Both models also have a microSD card slot.
Mavic 4 Pro Ships appear first with RC2 Screen Controller Air 3 Fly basic and more kits. However, DJI has also introduced the RC2 Pro in contrast to what I have seen earlier. The bright 7-inch HDR display folds a multi-angle view and bends 90 degrees for a vertical video (automatically rotating the Mavic 4 Pro’s camera 90 degrees).
When the screen is folded back, joysticks (though you can do it) no longer need to be placed in the body. It has full controls for flying and camera operations, including the button that jumps the camera 90 degrees. There are HDMI and USB-C port in the RC2 Pro, along with Wi-Fi 6 support for high-speed data transfers.
New 95WH batteries are rated to provide 51 minutes of flight time or in normal use for 40-45 minutes. This is a considerable OST pu from 30-35 minutes of real-world battery life in Mavic 3 Pro. Still, it is better, they charge 51 minutes (by USB-C) or a Fly More Kit Charger for 90 minutes for 90 minutes.
Performance and symptoms
The Mavic 4 Pro can now hit 56 mph (90 km/h) in Sport Mode without detecting the obstacle, from the front to the front, which is a big help to the filming of motor vehicles. The top speed in the general mode with tracking and obstacle detection is also fast at 40 mph. This is still a big SUV of drone, although it is not agility DJI’s Mini 4 Pro. And because there are no propcels, it is not advisable to do tricks around people or in tight places Open 2.
The noise from the Mavic 4 Pro does not change from Mavic 3 Pro at 83 DB. However, the frequency frequency is reduced and less embarrassed, especially when it is flying close to people – so, ER, proposals to DJI for that improvement.
With the new O4+ Transmission System, the Mavic 4 Pro now provides 18.6 miles (30 km) video transmission range, doubling the Mavic 3 Pro. Although most pilots do not go so far, I have found that the Mavic 4 Pro has less likely to interfere with the previous one. It supports the bright 10-bit HDR 1080p live video transmission for high-quality backup capture and good visibility in sunlight.
Subject Tracking Active Tracking is available through the 360 function (first seen in the Mini 4 Pro), which allows you to control the camera position when placing your subject in the frame. It is also designed to keep things in view, although it is partially obscured.
I tested it with a car, mountain bike and when it was running to see how it works at different speeds. The Mavic 4 Pro was locked up on a car driving car up to 30 mph with a complete obstacle. When filming a bike rider, Mavic chose interesting and random paths around 4 pro trees, which often gave the film a greatness. That behavior also crashed into a small tree stalk, but fortunately, it did not cause visible or functional damage. Following me on the Preset Activattrac 360 path, the drone also served as a Vlagging tool.
Next, I took the night Mavic 4 Pro to test the lidar and low-light sensors, flying around the trees and next to the buildings. It was dangerous with past models, but it successfully recognized and avoided all obstacles in my test. Low-light capacity helps you bring home a drone home safely overnight, as long as you remember that Lidar only works in the forward direction. Return-to-Home now works in enough light without GPS, as the Mavic 4 Pro can remember the flights.
Video quality
With its new camera system, Mavic 4 Pro has the best video quality I saw in any user drain. The main hastblad-branded 28 mm wide camera has a 100-megapixel, dual iso 4/3 sensor, which supports the 6K0 FPS or 4K20 FPS capture, which makes the dynamic range with DGI’s professional de-log and D-lag mode. It also offers 100MP photos. The Mavic 4 Pro is one of some of the drones with a variable aperture (F/2.0 to F/11) for better depth of field control and further consumption in sunlight.
Infinity Gimbal has a 70 mm medium telephoto lens in the mini4 pro with 1/1.3-inch sensor. In addition, there is a long 168 mm camera with a 1/1.5-inch sensor, which is ideal for wildlife tracking. Both are f/2.8 aperture, 4K 60p video and D-Log/D-Logm and HDR, Subject-Tracking AF and Dual Native ISO.
The 6K and 4K video quality on the Hasselblad camera is very sharp and color-perfect, while at the same time provides a good dynamic range, especially with the sky and cloud details. Switching to D-Log Mode will further enhance the dynamic range, but the color correction makes it slightly treated. I loved using D-Logm to get a good balance between the ease of adjustment and the dynamic range.
The Base Mavic 4 Pro captures the H.265 video up to 180 Mbps, but the creator’s combo version is supported by 1,200 Mbps H.264 for editing with its fast interior storage. However, the DJI has left the Pras 4: 2: 2 HQ option available in the movie version of the Mavic 3 Pro.
The Mavic 4 Pro really hits other drones, thanks to the local dual iso capacity. When burning the city scene during dusk at ISO 6400 and more, it is easy to reduce the grain with a slight noise reduction. And if shooting at dawn or dusk, D-LOG mode provides enough dynamic range to balance light ski and dark ground areas.
Photo quality in 100MP mode is also very detailed, I can zoom in and can see small items clearly. For low-light shooting, it is advisable to stick with 25MP to reduce noise. DJI’s raw DNG capture makes it easy to tunnightly tuneed photos depicted in contrasty lighting conditions.
70 mm (3x) 1/1.3-inch telephoto camera is great for taking portraits or shooting landscapes. With support for 4K up to 120 FPS and D-Log or D-Logm, it can be easily mixed and compared to footage from the main camera, although the detail and low-light capacity is not so good. The 168mm 1/1.5-inch camera produces medium video quality, but it is great for capturing wildlife.
Wrap-up
The Mavic 4 Pro is a great example of how DJI is ahead of the opponents by stable updating and perfectly updating its products. It is improving than Mavic 3 Pro in almost every area, and as mentioned, it really has no competition in the consumer space. A close alternative in price and ability Autol’s EVO II PRO 6KBut that drone has a small sensor, a single-camera system with low endurance and low range.
Lack of US availability is a major problem, which can cause anger with drone ts in the States. By the end of this year, DJI drones in the US are in danger of being completely banned. The company emphasizes that its drones do not have a national security risk and welcome any consideration.
The Mavic 4 Pro is now sold in most areas except the United States, with € 2,099 or £ 1,879 (about 36 2,360) RC2 controller.
