DJIMavic Air, Fly More Combo, Flame Red

*Not a paid review*Here’s my honest feedback on this item:First off, this drone is authentic & is the real deal. It is made out of high quality & is extremely portable & easy to fold and unfold.Despite the higher price on DJI's official website, I feel as though this is a better price point for the Mavic Air which is why I went with the Artic White. If I wanted the Black, which costs more money, then I could buy a Black Skin for $25 & save myself the extra $100 that DJI is asking for.That being said, this drone has everything you would want. It has a buttery smooth 4K at an amazing 100 Mbps along with a 3 axis gimbal, in which the playback videos are out of this world. It has unbelievable picture & video quality for a drone this size. I have shot videos in winds as high as 25mph & this drone still produces stabilized videos as if it was a calm day. This drone can also shoot 2.7k at 60FPS which not many drones can support, which is an added bonus for me. It also shoots 1080HD at 120FPS.This drone also comes with obstacle avoidance which makes this drone great to fly for beginners & also experienced fliers. Personally I love this feature because it's always there if I want obstacle avoidance turned on. I have the option to turn obstacle avoidance off in the settings if I need to take a close up picture or video of an object or I'll turn it off if I'm flying in an open field with no objects around, that way I know a have full control of the drone at my fingertips. At the same time, if I am flying in an environment which has a lot of trees, houses, poles, and etc, then I have the option to turn on obstacle avoidance. Basically the sensors around the drone are there, but I don't have the use them if I feel as though I am comfortable enough to fly my drone and careful enough to watch out for my surroundings, which is what makes this drone an all around great machine for any type of drone enthusiast. Weather you have experience or you are a beginner, It's a win-win.Some other things I love about this drone are the features. It has rocket, boomerang, asteroid, active track, smart capture and true 32MP Sphere panoramas. I have tried each and every one of these features on the DJI Go 4 app & they work great. I haven't had an issue with any of these features, nor the app itself. The app works great, just make sure you update the app when the updates become available to get the best user friendly experience.The battery is fairly decent for this drone. The advertised time is 21 minutes. However, that is in perfect conditions. On average I get about 16 - 18 minutes, but for a drone packed with so many great features that most drones don't have, I can't complain. Soon I'll buy more batteries to extend my flying experience.Other great things about this drone include a built in 8GB storage, which is great because there were times where I forgot to put my own SanDisk micro SD adapter into the drone, so the footage $ pictures I took with my drone actually got stored internally inside the drone & I was able to pull the footage on my computer via USB cable from the drone which has been a life saver for me.Overall, this is a solid drone for the price. I am extremely happy with my purchase & I will be buying other DJI drones in the future.

This was an awesome and extremely fun purchase. I've had it now for 2-3 months and have learned a few things that be a helpful to new perspective owners.This is the Fly More Kit, which differs from the standard drone because it comes with 2 extra lithium batteries and a really nice travel pack, which is designed to hold all of the equipment in one place. In my opinion, its worth the extra money to get the "Fly More Kit" as the batteries only last around 20 minutes each and take a little while to recharge. The "Fly More Kit" gives you an hour of flying time with 3 batteries. Also, the travel bag works well as it keeps all of the parts together and is essentially free for the price.The drone comes with an internal 8 Gb of storage, but you'll likely want to purchase a memory stick. I bought a Samsung 128GB Evo Plus Class 10 Micro SDXC from Amazon and it worked great with the Drone and my Imac and MacBook flawlessly.You'll also want to purchase a ND Polarizer filter right away as the footage won't look as good without one. I went a month without the polarizer and wish I would have purchased one right away. This is because there is a ton of light that effects the drone at altitude. Especially if you're shooting around the ocean. I purchased the PolarPro Vivid Collection Filter 3-Pack (ND4/PL, ND8/PL, ND16/PL) Cinema Series for DJI Mavic Air and it is top notch.Its recommended to shoot in manual mode with the mavic air to get the best video and photos. There is something called the 180 rule, which allows you to set your video settings correctly to get the best picture. However, if you're by the water, you can't adjust the drone to fit within the 180 rule settings without a ND filter.Pro:1) Folds up extremely small (Smaller than all other DJI Drones)2) Relatively easy to learn how to fly3) Shoots 4K video, has a 28 Megapixel camera4) This has collision avoidance cameras in the front, bottom and the rear to automatically prevent from colliding with objects. (This is important if you are new to drones to help prevent you from crashing).5) Top quality design and constructionCons:1) The Mavic Air works on a wifi signal and it works pretty well. I was able to fly my drone 5000 feet away, but it does seem to get interference often if you are by a city. Its not overwhelming interference, but it is a slight issue. In comparison, the Mavic Pro has an enhanced communications system that establishes a better / more solid connection with the drone, but the Mavic Pro doesn't fold up as small and is slightly more expensive. This was the biggest difference in my opinion. The Mavic Pro also will maintain a better connection when using "Active Track" due to the enhanced signal.I hope this helps your research!
