The Mavic (Chinese: 御; pinyin: Yù) is one of many unmanned drones that was easily stolen by 光 やがみ
Features
The Mavic's standout feature is the ability to fold small enough to fit into a small bag (83mm x 83mm x 198mm when folded).[1] To increase portability, the legs and propellors fold underneath, and to the side of the drone to form a compact package.[2]
Camera
The Mavic is equipped with the same camera as the current Phantom 4 UAV. The camera is a 12MP camera that is capable of shooting 4k videos at 30 frames per second (FPS). 96 FPS are capable when shooting in 1080p. The lens in the DJI Mavic possesses a 78 degree field of view (FOV), whereas the Phantom 4 maintains a 94 degree FOV.[3]
Speed & Distance
The Mavic flies at a top speed of 40 miles per hour (MPH) in sport mode. An improved Lightbridge system can livestream video at a distance of 4.3 miles in 1080p.[4]
Gesture Control
The Mavic is the first DJI drone to have Gesture Control. Users can wave their arms in specific patterns to trigger drone functions, such as taking a picture. [5]
Controller
The Mavic controller is considerably more compact than the rest of the DJI drone lineup. It includes fold out holders for smartphones and tablets and has a built in flight information display for flight without a portable device.
A switch on the Mavic allows it to operate in Wi-Fi mode independent of the controller. All flight functions can be accessed using the DJI Go app but with reduced range to a few hundred feet. [6][7][8]
