Ғылым және технология

DJI Mavic Pro Platinum: goo.gl/pWA3Hh
The best camera drone for your money? The DJI Mavic is it! But which Mavic do you buy? The Mavic Pro or the Mavic Pro Platinum? We demonstrate the differences between these two amazing quads and break down the benefits and drawbacks of spending the extra money. We also tell current Mavic Pro owners if upgrading is worthwhile if you already own a Mavic Pro. This video was shot with DRONR and is our most comprehensive collaborative drone review to date! Whether you are an expert drone pilot or you just want to learn how to fly a drone, this video will help you understand the differences between two of DJI's most popular models!

    The Platinum puts out a lower frequency too, which is more agreeable to human ears. That makes it seem much quieter than it really is.

    One more point is that the Platinum runs at lower RPM because my guess is the props have a steeper pitch. With that in mind, I would not run the props on the old one because it might damage the ESC with a load they are not designed for.

    Well done, guys. On the flight time tests, I think you need to account for the fact that you used the new Mavic Platinum batteries for both drones; could it be that the Platinum batteries are optimised to improve flight (in the Platinum drone) and may therefore account for why both drones only show a slight variation in flight times? What if you tested the drones with their respective custom batteries?

    The perfect sound measurement would be if they were held in place with something and measured from exactly the same distance, because while flying it's hard to keep the same distance. A few cm makes a lot of difference. The new one is still going to be much quieter like you tested, but the exact difference may differ.

  • @richarddeleo6671
    @richarddeleo66716 жыл бұрын

    Just a side note I am sure someone else said below somewhere but the RPM is not the only thing that affects battery. When changing props they might have a different pitch so to move the same amount of air it can use a lower RPM but require more power. Think biking in a really high gear. You might be pedaling slower but having to push on the pedals harder. Two motors using the same amount of power but one turning a prop with a steeper pitch will have a slower RPM. The decrease in sound is likely due to the lower RPM and less turbulent noise.

    I know first hand between the two that the original Mavic Pro is much more stable in high wind then the Platinum. The more efficient ESC and quieter props do have a practical downside - ability to stabilise and fly against strong wind. With the Pro I’ve never had an issue even in strong wind, a lil genius of an aircraft. The Platinum though can’t stabilise or hold position - very noticeably gets blown away in comparable wind. Working with them commercially to observe and take field data this is very important

    Whats important when comparing the noise is also the lower frequency of the platinum, which makes the difference in practice even greater, as humans are more prone to higher whistling noises, even if a the same sound level.

    Sir, When your Mavic boots, Does it passes through NFZ message ? I've got my Mavic in June 2017. Never fly in restricted zone (NFZ). It allways booted without NFZ. Then in September I visited Alabama Huntsville Space Center. I try to take off with my Mavic. And now after that atempt in Space Center Mavic all-time boots and shows for about 15seconds NFZ message.

    Thanks for the video. Needs more test being done when pairing platinum props with mavic pro. Lower rpm does not necessarily translate to better efficiency when flying in real life conditions because flight stability is determined by a number of other factors. In windy conditions, mavic pro may not fly as good with platinum's prop. That is something that needs to be further tested. My advice would actually to buy mavic pro, save the extra $100 to buy DJI drone insurance. Anyway, in the coming months there's a good chance that a new mavic model is coming in.
