You are not in focus :D

My dad want the dj mavik mini

Just got my Mavic Air 2. Thanks for the info, love the SG in the background btw!

Great review! The only thing I think you missed is on the H.265 codec...the file sizes are much smaller, but you should make sure that whatever you're editing is updated to handle H.265 first. Again, thanks for the great detailed video! Can't wait for mine to come in the mail!

Awesome...I recognize my old neighborhood in NW ATX...maybe we lived closed by ? haha

Great review. If I can make a small sugestion - it would help with a lower third or something like this with a scen when you demonstrate a difference in noise between 4 different DJI drones. As a newbe it took me a little bit of time to identify those drones. ;)

I love that field you are at, I have so many great memories there me and my dad used to launch model rockets there

Just got a brand newie for $740.00 aud pretty good bargain I think

Awesome video! I just bought one. I can’t open till Xmas 😢 can’t wait to get started

Great info.

I love your videos! Thanks for insight and updates.

I shot this during sunset in new Orleans on mavic air 2... Cinematic... https://youtu.be/BzJE_v834KY enjoy! And great channel i subscribed...

got mine today

Does this have bottom side and top obstacle avoidance?

How bout a price on it brains

Really you were worried about a plane thousands of feet up 😳

is there anyway to over rule "forced landing"?

I ordered one directly from DJI, but it got held for customs violations, and they wouldn’t tell me when it would be released. Eventually had to cancel the order :(

For those of you planning on a Mavic 2 Air, it is now available WITH the Smart Controller as a bundle along with the Fly More stuff. The price is about $350-400 more than with the cell phone remote controller, but that is a LOT cheaper than waiting to purchase the Smart Controller separately and paying $650-750. The Smart Controller also is able to attach to FPV goggles, I think, which the regular controller cannot do.

Thanks bro i just buy this drone

A key problem with the DJI Fly app is that it will not work with MOST Android phones or tablets! That, with the absimal customer service from DJI, should be taken into account before buying.

im hoping one day when they upgrade the Smart Controller they put the screen on top, having the screen above like on the mavic air 2 is pure genius.

Do you know why they don't make these drones compatible with 3D googles? Seems like it would add a lot to the experience if you wanted to get them.

I’m in market for my first drone . Thanks for all the information I’m looking for it’s just making everything so sensible I know its going to be a learning process for me I just have to do it slowly and surely for me to enjoy my new hobby.
Thanks

I'm buying one tomorrow, with only one battery.

Just got mine!

Does it compatible with dji goggles?

Nice review..

Great content ! I have a Mavic Air 2 and post daily on my channel . You just got a like from me and a new subscriber here.

Is it compatible with the DJI white goggles?

look at my videos to se how it looks like to fly the mavic air 2 :)

It's a cool little drone. Thanks for the video!

I wanna buy this so badly. Just can't buy in india

This is a really professional video.

Always fun to see two overweight middle aged men on skateboards with selfie stick in one hand and controller for the selfie drone in the other.

Hi Kelly. Excellent vid there. Ya so I have the MA 2....my second drone from first the Mini. It's fantastic. I live in northern Alberta and fly alot out here. I did a range test and well.........lets just say it can go the distance LOL. What I have never got tho is the air sense warnings about other aircraft in the area. Not sure if this is just a US thing or what but I live near an airport even and still no warnings. Anyways I fly with respect to the rules so no worries there.
So....long time subscriber to your channel. Thanks bud.......Stay safe

Let get together and fly for fun! Join Southeast Drone Club!

Is the mavic 2 under 250 grams?

How much does trees affect the control? If in a well forested area will this controller keep contact even through many trees?

this is my second drone and it should have been my first. No knock on the mini but it made me nervous in high wind. other than i like the mini, but the MA2 is almost a perfect drone. It flies so smooth almost effortless and its zippy to it has great range i think the mini was a lil stiffer it is very stable for lil drone though. looking forward to seeing what the M3P will be about and all its capabilities. Great detailed video. Spot on.

By the way GREAT REVIEW!!

Speaking of LITCHI....
I can't wait till the SDK comes out for the mavic air 2 as it has for the mavic mini..
I can't stand that THEY DID NOT PUT WAYPOINTS IN THE MAVIC AIR 2!!
I don't know what they were thinking maybe thinking the mavic air 2 is not a professional drone which is a bunch of crap because waypoints are in other manufacturers drones that are under $200!!
I guess DJI nickel and diming their customers trying to manipulate them as usual billionaires trying to make more billions!!
There's absolutely no logical reason why there isn't waypoints on the mavic air 2!!
I was loving LITCHI with the mavic pro because I could do a whole waypoint mission without the controller, or aircraft on.
Control every aspect of what I want the mavic pro to do. Then start up the controller and the mavic pro HIT GO IT DID THE WAYPOINT MISSION PRECISELY BETTER THAN ANYONE CAN DO WITH A CONTROLLER AND THEN CAME RIGHT BACK HOME!!
then when I sold my mavic pro and got the mavic air 2 I was so disappointed no way points!!! BUMMER
😂🤣😂

As for the DJI fly app I think it's much better and like you said easier than the DJI go 4 app which I hated!!
I think the DJI go 4 app was cluttered, all the settings were thrown in as an afterthought just to keep everyone happy from complaining..
That's why with my mavic pro I always used LITCHI
It was a resource hog and bogged down lots of phones and caused a lot of crashes ON APPLE AND ANDROID!!
I think that the DJI fly app is so much more simpler and they're going in a different direction with remote ID which is already in the app, along with other things for the future.

I would say the one in sensor really only makes a big difference in low light but overall if you look at the comparison with video and especially with HDR side by side most people prefer the mavic Air 2 over the mavic 2 pro video and pictures.
I know it's not supposed to be that way but it seems like that's what most people notice and I would have to agree I prefer the mavic air 2 photos and video over the mavic 2 pro
The HDR video and pictures is probably better than any drone on the market today.
it is so good that in most situations there's no need to color correct in post.
I've actually seen people professional photographers using their flat profile and then using their lut in post. Then comparing it to the HDR and the hdr on the mavic Air 2 seems to still do a better job it's simply amazing!!

The only problem with the 265 compression is that it's not compatible with a lot of video players and even the ones that's compatible with it seems to have issues it's been nothing but a pain in the ass for me..
So until they figure that all out I stick with the 264 that just seems to work perfectly everywhere..

Great video. All the footage on my chanel was shot with this drone. I consider it a fantastic buy for the price and have not had any issues at all with it even in some very rural areas at far distances.

I love this drone. It’s my first one and it is easy to use and so much fun

EXCELLENT REVIEW. GONNA BUY ONE NOW. THANKS

When you have it following you can you choose how far it is from you? Also can you have it follow you from the front, side & back of you or does it have to follow from behind?

I have an original Mavic Pro that I like but the gimbal flakes out sometimes when I'm shooting video. Do you think the Mavic Air 2 is an upgrade over the original Mavic Pro?

Think I’ve just made a wise purchase! How do you connect it to an iPhone?

thats it im getting it just neeed to self phontom 4 first

Assuming one gets the Fly More Combo, in comparing the Mini to the Air 2, the Mini costs less and doesn't require registration, BUT one gets so much more paying extra for the Air 2. Also, it seems like the Mini being smaller and lighter is at greater risk from unexpected winds. If I got the Mini, I'd feel more limited as to when I could fly compared to the Air 2.

Can’t wait to buy this drone.

Great review with well explained info. Just ordered mine yesterday.

good work man!!!! also check out my work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgFwOXjQq7U

I bought before i watched !!!?? and what?

You out of focus for your entire video.

I am gearing up for updating my moto vlogging this will be a good investment

That's it sold to me

is there an update on this for FPV DJI Goggles?

You talk so much about how great DJI is, and it may be. What I have never heard you talk about is the terrible customer service, they are at the bottom of drone manufacturers. They are so bad that many high end retailers won’t carry them. So I should spend around a grand and get zero customer support? Please be unbiased and address this.

That’s for sharing. Very informative. I wasn’t very sure which Mavic I should choose but now I am getting the confident get the Mavic Air 2.

What do you think about the mavic Air 2 after the recent updates with the digital Zoom along with sideways obstacle avoidance n the new battery meter & gimbal control?

What hydration pack or on bike pack do u recommend for cycling with the dji mavic air 2 drone?

I don't know if I should get the Mavic Air 2 Fly More or a used Mavic 2 Zoom because they are very close in price.

I'll take a half sensor hit for 4k at 60 fps, the pros don't offer that.

Going from MAVIC AIR to MAVIC AIR2

Looking for a drone that will fill my needs in this price point. I've really zoned in on the Upair 2 as well as the FIMI SE 2020 but I really like the obsticle avoidance on this drone. Most of my filming is going to be done for action sports and on the lake alot of the time. So I need a drone that is stable, isnt going to have any softwear glitches (already lost a hubsan pro in the lake), has a really good camera and gimbal, can keep up with a boat that goes about 25 mph max, will be filming wakeboarding and surfing, also need the drone to be really precise with its return home feature to the actual controller NOT where it took off from because we move alot, I need it to land right on the heli pad on the back of the boat. Sorry for such a long question! but if you could help me by pointing me in the right direction it would be a god send! wanna make sure I get the right drone this time! THANKS!!!

I just added some test clips to my channel, check it out!

Thanks for a great review! Very thorough and helpful!

Does not support DJI Goggles!!! Just sad!

Hay Rick great video.... I have the Air 2 and love it. Kind of like it more than my zoom. I did have one issue with it on the 4th of July, I was filming fireworks at Lake Havasu, AZ from a cove then flew over the water to get a closer shot not that far , maybe 3000 feet and altitude of 300 ft. All was good until the drone disconnected from the controller. It did return to home and while it was I kept trying to reconnect and would not. It came back and started to land over my boats Bimini. I should of put the controller down and tried to catch but happened so fast, it clipped the tow tower and fell into the water. There was someone there standing by the boat and grabbed it but it did go completely under. I took the battery out right away and dried off as best I could. When we got back to our house I set it out all night and almost to noon the next day. The temp was around 100 at night and by noon it was about 118 so it got a pretty good baking. One of the motors had some dirt in by the magnets, took top part off and blew out and this clear this out. Then the next day I decided to see if it would power up and how it would react. Well it seemed to be fine, then powered off and took out side and it flew. Just flew for maybe 5 min because of the heat. And have been flying now many more time now in the heat. Can't believe it survived the dunk in the water with power on for many 15 to 20 seconds. Battery though did not survive. This is one great drone...

... so, stay tooned ...

Thanks for in-depth information

Jist figured out No Gimbal pitch speed adjustment, Flipping USELESS! I hate this thing! MA1 is faster, controls much much more responsive, and cooler all around. Will DJI take this POS back?

Really simple question - does the app allow you to set up grid lines? And how and where do you set this up?

I actually really like DJI Fly, The UI is so clean and it looks great.

Have you done a noise measurement on the air 2? I'm comparing it to the pro platinum from another of your videos. Thanks!

Anyone else having lag issues? At least half a second, and when flying in sport mode I lose 5' in altitude when I go from full throttle to dead stick. Looking for a forum to talk to other mavic Air 2 pilots, please link, Thanks!

Dude he’s focused too far back

Shout-out to Austin

Sorry, I couldn't watch the whole thing but is the smart controller necessary? Can the drone be used efficiently without the smart controller? Thanks

Yes might be better but 5 times the price also it is larger so have to register

Thank you for the video!! Definitely helped me decide to get the Air over the pro. Im heading to to the store now to pick up my new Air fly more pack….. Wish me luck!

I watched your video and liked and subbed

Great video. Thanks!

guitars in focus?

I think for the money it is a great buy. I have crashed several times however because of the lack of top and side sensors and the slow braking it seems to have. I also have got the camera stuck from crashing and had to pull it back out. But wow it is tough.

Somebody please help this man get a camera that focuses on him.

I fly professionally and for fun, and purchased the MA2 the day after the announcement. I use it mostly for real estate video at the moment. Speaking of moment, I picked up a Moment 2-5 stop ND filter and it's been brilliant. Coming from a Phantom 4 and Mavic Pro, I love the new controller, quick setup time, flight performance and handling, the new Fly app, and especially appreciate the extended battery life. I've found the video quality excellent, so no complaints. Looking forward to the addition of waypoints and integration with the smart controller.
The only minor drawback is the lack of side sensors. When in doubt, I go higher and avoid all potential obstacles.

I just saved up a lot of money from my video projects to buy this drone and then I found out my phone is not compatible because it requires a 64 bit processor, so I cannot fly the drone. Not only that, I promised a client that I could get them drone shots next week. I feel so embarrassed that I have to tell them I need a new phone.

is air2 really $400 ! better than mini ?

Thanks for the great review and info.

i just sent my 2nd mini back today... the first one a part fell off. the 2nd was really loud stright out the box... so i sent it back and im looking into this but its soo expensive.

Great review of the so many Pros and the few Cons of this awesome quad. Thanks for sharing them! I'm already subbed.

all i have had is problems with mine , installed 2nd battery and it wouldnt shut down so when it died it would not release to come out of drone , had it 3 days to have to return it

What I miss is waypoint missions and being able to change the speed the gimbal when using the wheel (I want to slow it way down from how it is now).
