Dà-Jiāng Innovations Science and Technology Co., Ltd (DJI) is a Chinese Drone manufacturing tech giant makes one of the best drones in the tech market at present. The company releases smart, durable and general focused drones. DJI's recent releases Mavic Pro and Phantom 4 Pro are compared with each other in-terms of capabilities and specifications.

DJI Mavic Pro Features

The DJI Mavic Pro is a small yet powerful drone that has a foldable body that apparently has no issues on fitting inside the owner's backpack. The drone turns the sky into creative canvas turns every moment of user an aerial moment. Its compact size hides a high degree of complexity that makes it one of DJI's most sophisticated flying cameras ever.

The device has 24 high-performance computing cores, an all-new transmission system with a 4.3mi (7km) range, 5 vision sensors, and a 4K camera with the 12MP lens having 4096 x 2160 resolution at 30fps.stabilized by a 3-axis mechanical gimbal.

The Inside of Mavic's pocket-sized remote controller is DJI's brand new OcuSync transmission technology which have capabilities ensuring maximum of range of 7000m, HD 720p long range and Full HD 1080p short range video streaming.

The Mavic uses Flight Autonomy technology to sense obstacles up to 49ft (15m) away and allows the Mavic to bypass them or brake to hover, reducing accidents during long distance flight or when descending from an inadequate height in Return to Home mode.

The Mavic Pro is capable of reaching a top speed of 40mph an absolute maximum flight time of 27 minutes and a maximum distance of 8mi (13km) due to its powerful, high-efficiency motors and It can reach a height of 5,000 meters and it has 734g of weight. The DJI Mavic Pro is available at a price tag of £1,100.

DJI Phantom 4 Pro Features

The Phantom 4 Pro is built with titanium alloy and magnesium alloy which increases the rigidity of the airframe and reduces the weight.

Phantom 4 Pro has an updated camera equipped with a 1-inch 20MP sensor capable of shooting 4K/60fps video and Burst Mode stills at 14 fps which is a custom engineered lens made up of eight elements arranged in seven groups.

The company claims that it is the first DJI camera to use a mechanical shutter, eliminating rolling shutter distortion which can occur when taking images of fast moving subjects or when flying at high speed. In effect, it is as powerful as many traditional ground cameras. Also, the advanced sensors and processors ensure everything is captured with more image detail and the image data needed for advanced post-production.

The Flight Autonomy system in Phantom 4 Pro adds dual rear vision sensors and infrared sensing systems for a total of 5-direction of obstacle sensing and 4-direction of obstacle avoidance. Thus protecting the Phantom 4 Pro from more obstacles and giving filmmakers the confidence to capture more complex images.

The Phantom 4 Pro has a remote controller with an integrated screen. With that, it will be easier to make use of the enhancements thru the DJI Go app thru HDMI, mic, WiFi, microSD and more.

The Phantom 4 Pro is faster than the Mavic Pro. It has a speed of 45mph, which lasts for 30 minutes on a single charge and can reach a height of 6,000 meters. It has a fixed size and shape as well, a weight of 1,388 g and a price tag of £1,600.
