![DJI MAVIC 2 PRO Review - [Flight Test In-Depth / Pros & Cons]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/gtO3HRMTDXw/mqdefault.jpg)
I recently bought the Evo II Pro 6k and I haven’t used it much. Your review is very thorough and helps understand all the functions. I will definitely start using it more. Thank you for taking the time to create this video!
Wicked review thanks Dustin for taking the time to share. Cheers!
Been a while love that your back
WOW!!!! I can't believe all the things the EVO 2 can do. Awesome review as usual .
ANOTHER GREAT REVIEW!!!! THEY ARE NEVER TOO LONG, JUST SUPER PROFESSIONAL & ENTERTAINING!!!! THANKS A MILLION!!!!
Thanks Eddie! 🍻
I just love your videos man! Honest review and it's just you playing with it and testing the features.
No cuts and stuffs.
Stay safe!
Thanks! Better for everyone if reviewers keep it real. I feel it benefits the consumers and makes the companies keep innovating 👍
I was waiting for your video great review
Definitely enjoyed the in depth review. Excellent video Dustin & looking forward to the range test 😊
I guess this is the drone for me....hey mann love your videos very very informative on testing...I always tuned in for the expectation...
Great video I have been waiting for this review thanks glad to see you back awesome.👍👍👍
Hello, Again! I I like yours full reviews very much ! Very detailed and well done 👍 thank you !
Love your vids man. You are like nuts when it comes to your safety tests. Being into 5"-6" FPV racers and seeing pics of the damage those props do to flesh... you are a brave soul! Granted, folding props are more forgiving, but it's great to see someone really put these drones through their paces like you do. Right on!
Those propellers definitely can chew some skin up. I fly both rc airplanes and drones. The planes have nitro engines and I tell you what I start them with a stick. Yes I have gotten fingers clipped and bled a little but luckily I have all eight fingers and both my thumbs. I keep gauze, bandages, medical tape hydrogen peroxide and triple antibiotic ointment in my field box Yeah propellers and not friendly and accidents happen. I have big respect for nitro and electric powered propellers.
You are the best sir. Keep up the good work.
Truly a great video thanks for your effort your making it easier for me to choose I was thinking of the dji mini but thus takes over
An amazing and awesome review Dustin!
pushed like before starting the video, because you know it's good !
Great video and thanks for clear sounds too.
Dude i love you and your videos so much man
Love the way you test the drone. Stay safe friend.👍💖
Very good review Dustin.
The video I've been waiting for! Finally!
Edit: I can’t wait for the range test!
Great review Dustin. I may have to give this drone a second look. 9:16, that view never gets old!
Another great review. By far the best reviewer out there. Thanks Dustin.
Thanks John I'm flattered. I just show how they really work 👍
Really helpful video. Great work!
Very nice test at the park, I was really impressed with some of the results. I think a lot of us tended to overlook this drone, especially when it was delayed until Spring and than the Mavic Air 2 stole it's thunder a bit. Great review.
Great review as usual, looking forward to your 0% range test.
Nice review Dustin,thank you
Thank You! You sold me on EVO 2.
I’m tempted on 6K....wish they had sale going on!
Dustin, I love your videos especially this one. I just purchased the EVO 2 and you have helped me tremendously with the understanding of its capabilities. Please shoot a video on the mission planning functions. You are very detailed with your explanations and I am sure it would help many of us EVO 2 owners out. Looking forward to your range test flight video with this drone! I am starting a drone business and your efforts and info on these types of drones have been very helpful to my efforts. Thanks for all your help.
Thanks for your input and good luck with the biz! I'll try to make a waypoint video 👍
Thanks for the great update
Great review. I also looking forward for the range test.... Mahalo!
You dune it again Dustin 👍👏 GREAT REVIEW rang test next please
That video quality is superb!
Awesome work braddah! 🤙🏼
Waiting for days for this video
Wow forty five mph
Love the tracking through the trees. Very impressive! hank you for sharing
I kinda miss the parrot 4G long flight videos :/ can we expect any in the future?
Great content by the way!
Still haven’t flown mine yet! When does it become a classic?
Yes you can. I have some planned just need to make it happen 😂✌
@@williampayne8129 I think it's been a classic for a while William. Keep that bird safe
I just purchased the pro version from Best Buy two days ago it will be here Tuesday I cannot wait to get my hands on this drone
i was egarly waiting for this video
Wow what a greay review! I hope you will have detailed review on the difference between mavic 2 pro and autel evo 2 pro. And also mavic air 2 and autel evo 2
Very very very useful in deed!!
I've been waiting for this video ever since the unboxing cuz I'm going to get me one just because of this video
AWESOME VIDEO! YOU THE MAN!
Great Review Dustin. I love how in depth you go with these drones. It's a drone that I would be proud of owning. All I have is the bugs 4w 4k, for now. But Good Job Brother. Can't wait to see the range test. I've put a U3 memory card into mine and the picture is way better than a class 10. It's so hot outside now I might go and fly, just waiting for my akaso brave 6 plus to go on top.👊💯
Awesome drone . If had to pick I would definitely go with Autel but I don’t have to pick because I already have it 😆 great video man .
Awesome video. This is gonna be next on my drone list. Recently picked up the Mavic Air2 to replace my again Mavic .
I have the Mavic air 2 and the Evo 1. Works for me!
nice vid dustin!
@@NeonSpinnner hahashahd hfhasbugyad
Great review.
Great review my friend
ωραια δουλεια φιλε εισαι ωραιος οπως παντα.
Looking forward to the range test
Cool, Dustin. You are the Maui Drone King. Jess
Bro, you are very lucky to have a scenic view like this.
Looks like Maui Hawaii to me! 🌿❤️✅
It's always beautiful there... Cheers and thanks for sharing! 👍🆙
oh man speed is crazy🙌🙌
Great vid as usual! That is an impressive bird. I wish drones came with 2-3 different color options, the light gray of the Air2s is hard to see while flying, I bet the orange color of the EVO 2 gives the pilot a further line of sight.
I keep hoping for another long range flight between islands or anything hawaii LOL thanks for another great review
Time to do more with the DISCO and some solar panels. Been putting it off for far too long 😂👍
Beautiful place, and beautiful footage/
Thanks for a great review! Always rock solid info. The choppy FPV is NOT typical. I have the E2P and NEVER had any FPV issues
good to hear. Maybe my phone but it works great with other drones. Have a feeling AUTEL just needs to support more android phones.
@@DustinDunnill I use a Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 with Android 7. I have use my newer moto g stylus also. Never had an issue. Maybe just a fluke? 🤔
Man, that's an awesome place to fly. I've loved this drone since the first time I saw it. The price is what's making me think about it. I'm not into doing videos, or fly 107. I've always loved to fly for the fun of it. Anyway, The other reason I don't get this drone is because of how expensive the accessories are? Crazy money.
I do have a MA2, and now I'm waiting to see what comes out next with DJI. I'll either get the next new drone or the Air S. Depends on what it looks like.
Thanks for sharing this video. Great review and enjoyable. I would say clear sky's, but happy flying. Thanks again 👍👍👍
Great review Dustin, and for the price of that Drone they need to fix all the issues.
cheers
yOUR THE BEST, I CAME TO THE VIDEO AFTER 8 mins
This is just wild!
Cool drone! I still love my Air 2 but i may get one of these too as a second drone! I like it! 👍
great review
This drone is at the top of my list for my first 107 workhorse drone. When the technology catches up with these amazing and fun drones I can envision a time when a layer of solar panel on the top will extend flying time considerably depending on how efficient they become. Still a ways off though...
For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul? For what can a man give in return for his soul? Mark 8:36-37 Give your life to Jesus Christ and confess Him as your Lord and Savior and He will save your soul from damnation.
Nice job buddy.
Great review, hope for your best range test which consumes the battery power to 0%.
Great job 👌
This is a video Autel Robotics should have published to demonstrate the functions of this drone! Nice video and very helpful!
really good video.
Great video review Dustin [as usual]. This quad has a lot that I like about it, particularly the internal waypoint missions. Don't know about the choppy video though but I'll just chalk that up to you using an android phone. I like my Mavic and DJI does lead the pack in many attributes.
Oh yes...The flight time [can't wait for the range test] is nothing to shake a stick at either. Let's also not forget the obvious advantage over DJI, no NFZ restrictions.
I use a samsung s10plus for my remote on my autel evo 2 8k. Out-of 100 plus flights I have only had 1 time inhad choppy video feed on my fpv. I restarted my phone and wala. Perfect again. So... my conclusion is...if you have other stuff running in the background on your phone or you haven't restarted it in a while then it might be a good idea to close everything and even clear any cached data so on and so forth and restart phone before flying. I have never had any issue with this because I own an android though 😆. Sounds like an iPhone guy lol. I have heard i phones work best for drone apps...I love my samsung s10 plus for flying the evo 2 though for sure 👍
Nice review you should do some wing builds someday
Man... If I had the money I'd buy this in a heart beat. That range test was absurd.
Ya so was tracking! Skynet is here lol
Hello, again Dustin!
How are you doing?
You did an awesome review with the Evo 2. I'm watching very carefully your reviews about the Fimi X8SE and Evo 2. Both are great drones although I'm still undecided which one to go for even though I have a very tiny budget and the Evo 2 is very expensive I don't think I can afford to buy it, but who knows if I win the Fimi that you are going to give away. Thanks again and have an awesome day!
The tracking is really impressive.
wow, great video, amazing drone..i have Spark, Phantom, Mavic Air2, and many more..i saw tons of youtube-videos drones, But this Drone is in all ways better than all the drones i know/saw till now..great stability, obstacle avoidance, sharp return-to-home, etc. its a top-drone, I need to purchase one ! ;]
Plus built in mapping!
Ok... now i want it!
Waiting for this ever since the Autel came out. Better late than never
Awesome review. This is however the only review I have seen where the video feedback from drone to phone is so choppy. If it isn't a phone compatibility issue that's a major issue that needs fixed ASAP.
Wonderful،
it's so like dji
But a huge different Price.
Thank you
بالله كيف ياخوي انا بشتريها ومتردد
لان فيه 4k و 6k وما ادري كيف الجودة اصلا
Fab review 👍 would you do a review for me? Evo 2 , doing pay load of around 12 oz on a 30 ft line in a strong winds see if the Evo 2 can keep its GPS position hold at 400ft .
Max useable payload is about 2lb. You need a 3rd party cargo bay though. Just bought one for mapping our mining claims and ferrying ore samples. Highly recommended
Range test is gonna be fun!!
That hanging RTH, never seen that in any drone, hmmm.
Yes that was very worrisome. Could result in a lost drone if it did that at distance or over water.
@@DustinDunnill No sweat, I'm sure Autel is watching.
At that point in the 2nd flight where it seemed to hang up, I saw that your phone had gone into listening mode, and was telling you to talk to it (little microphone on the screen). Not sure if that part of the phone function interfered with the App function. Pretty solid performance ... looking forward to your crazy 'range test' video. Some guys claim having one antenna up and one down works well .. I don't know. I think the furthest I've had my Evo 1 was only a mile, so it really didn't matter. Ha ha .. might want to invest in one of those portable oxygen concentrator devices to give you a better oxygen supply while you're running thru the trees ... ha ha! Mahalo .. stay safe!
I thought I waited until it closed the voice function but that could be it. With the placement of that button on bottom left it's hard not to hit it when holding controller with only left hand. I should disable it in settings. I think exercise is my only hope. That or not talking while I'm jogging and testing drones 😂
@@DustinDunnill I think if you go back and look at that part of the video, you'll see the phone acting up. I agree that the position of those buttons on the back are 'not optimal' and lead to accidental presses. I've seen some guys use 3D printers to make up "O-Rings" that are thick enough, to go around the buttons, so you can't press them unless you go inside the O-Ring. I was kidding about the oxygen concentrator. Maybe you can get a local kid to come to the park with a mini-dirt bike and let them do all the moving around while you track them? I think Autel should have done a redesign of the RC, including fixing those fragile antennas and moving those buttons to a place where they aren't susceptible to accidental presses. Looking forward to the range test. Cheers!
Aloha from Oahu. That raising up almost taking out your hand is something I would have done! 😂🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
😵😂🤙
Nice video thanks for the info. Now I want to sell my Mavic Pro and get this one!
I was really wondering what happened to you I haven’t seen any content from you in a while hope everything was OK your way but I see that you guys are good now I feel much better
All good. It takes a lot of time to do my reviews and edit them. I took some time to spend with family ✌
Im from Indonesia 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩 i like your video 🥰🥰🤩🤩
Thanks Dustin. Agree with Matt. Deal breaker. I want to see live video which is as close as compatible to the recorded video. Let's hope they improve.
Could be his phone
@@SyrusLang Certainly could. But it would be good for someone/anyone else to say they have not seen this issue. I have not read all of the comments though myself. Whatever the drone the live video needs to be representative of whatever you are creating.
I just updated to then 2. 5 update from the 2.3 I had in this video. Seems butter smooth now. We'll see if it's good on the range test shortly 🍻
You have lots of drones!!! What is your favorite drone that way I know what to get. Thanks!
Hi Justin, I just notice that you haven't got the smart orbit on your phone, you may need another update for that smart orbit to be installed, great review, thank you
Thanks. Yes I think It was the next update. I will be trying a tracking my truck in the forest video like I did with the SKYDIO 2 and I'll be sure to have it updated and try that function 👍
LOL! It just flew over your head like it tried to murder you! I enjoy your videos. I don't mind them being long neither. I fly a budget drone from Walmart a Vivitar phoenix . The app & WiFi won't work or connect to the aircraft, OR my PHONE, But it WILL with my Samsung Tab E tablet. My phone is an Samsung android galaxy J3. That's strange! But the drone does work! And very good! Thanks for sharing! I discovered your channel recently!
I trust your videos.
I think the initial jerky footage we see from the drone is your phones incompatibility on that setting. Saying this after it has settled down, a change in bitrate it gets used to the signal and things smooth out.
Another great video (liked of course). BTW did Autel ever fix the stutter and lag on the fpv with future firmware upgrades? Also did the return to home ever get fixed? The video and pics turned out great and I love the zoom feature. Thanks for posting bro.
The stutter was fixed with an update days after. Not sure about the RTH stall... never happened again though 🍻
I live in Hilo.. Mahalo for the video.. im looking into drones .. new hobby for 2021.. newbie .. Also looking into FPV drones.
Nice, with stock antennas does pretty good. Dustin, I have the Evo 2 Pro, you need to add on the Alientech Pro booster. This will eliminate any lag, and greatly increase transmission signal.
Plus, that’s about maximum range to retrieve Evo 2 back to launch pad. It’ll definitely go further with Alientech Pro booster setup, but it won’t be a round trip flight. Don’t risk going beyond 5.5 miles, you’ll be running on fumes on return flight. May not make it back to launch pad, 5.3 us about maximum fir a safe return.
Good luck!
Paul
The lag went away when I updated to the 2.5 firmware
@neek 00 lol.. no you haven't !! I started on cheap ass drones and no sub $200 drone has a better anything than this drone. lol
Would you take your time and practically show us how to control the remote gears or sticks? Show us the risks involving mishandling or controlling the sticks please
Had the first evo and like a dummy I sold it. Can’t wait to buy the Evo 2. Can’t decide if I want the pro , dual or regular 2 🤔
They are the exact same body. The only difference is the cameras and they are interchangeable. Bought the 8k to map our mining claim while we save up for the thermal cameras. The Autel website sells the individual cameras.
I think it stopped on the last RTH given it has to compute and figure out power enough to make it back. When these are as low on battery, the drone can do weird stuff. Lots of computations occur, and sometimes the drone emergency lands in that spot if it calculates insufficient power for the RTH.
