The is certainly a great machine, made even better by a fair price. Improved flight modes, better object detection for better collision avoidance, a higher speed and greater flight time and distance are all important as well. The Phantom 4 is, effectively, an iterative update over the best Phantom 3 models, but again, it is our opinion that the real world improvements exceed what the spec sheet tries to tell us. The Phantom 4 Pro is compatible with two types of controllers, standard and optional. Both can switch between 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz frequency bands with a maximum controllable range of 4.3mi (Unobstructed, free of interference, FCC compliant.). The Phantom 4 Pro + has a 5.5-inch 1080p display, with 1000 cd/m2brightness and built-in DJI GO 4 app.
At any point in time, you can easily and quickly hit this button on the Remote Controller to bring the drone back home safely and quickly. You see, I was coming at the tree from an angle that could’ve been outside of the OSS’s visual range. It senses what’s in front of the Phantom, not above, to the sides or behind it.
In cases where you need a lot of images, and a high overlap, this difference adds up. The best way to evaluate the price is to consider the average size of your projects and how many man-hours are spent shooting ground control. If you work on sites larger than 20-acres then the time savings from shooting fewer ground control points is very real and can quickly offset the increased cost of the dji mini 2 fly more combo RTK. For a non-RTK bird, the amount of ground control required for a job is a function of the height you fly at and the size of your site. About 5 GCPs per flight battery is a good metric to use for non-RTK. In our case the 60m flight proved the most usable as it had the right balance between image sizes, interpolation and flying height.
The quick installation system is a large draw to customers who don’t like wasting time setting up their drone for mapping missions. Hero, is the newest in our line of simple to use survey cameras. Every Survey3 camera includes an external GNSS/GPS receiver to automatically geo-tag each captured image. Its 12MP sensor and sharp non-fisheye lens allows you to easily capture aerial media. We are a service provider of aviation labels, ID cards and other products and services.
It works pretty well, as long as your subject isn’t too small and doesn’t blend into the background. I was able to get it to follow me around with no problems when I wore a tan coat while standing on a green athletic field. But when our family dog moved from grass to a fallow field that was close to his coloring, the Phantom lost track of his movements. The dji drones Pro ships with a big, comfortable remote control. The left stick controls the altitude and spins the aircraft about its axis.
Finally, the rear of the controller features two customizable buttons , and a power port. The DJI Phantom 4 is a compact, high quality quadrotor camera drone that can easily be carried from one location to the next for every project. With a flight time of 28 minutes per battery and a flight speed of up to 45mph, the Phantom 4 covers a large area in a short time period, significantly saving time and resources.
