DJI MAVIC AIR

[EttoreEsposito]

I really appreciate the quality of this drone and personally own one. However, sourcing batteries at a reasonable price has become a challenge, leading me to consider decommissioning it. It's disappointing, especially after investing over 1.5K€ in the Fly More Combo and Goggles, to find it unusable after just six years. I believe the support lifespan is too short for the price paid.

I bought my mavic air fly more combo when they first came out and I'm Still using the original batteries. Will never get rid of mine 👍🏻

[inandaroundofficial]

Definitely is! If not for the batteries' short flight duration. Still delivers great 4K videos.

[FRKNR]

Do you think are they still safe to fly? I owned one, its my first drone I’m just afraid to fly cos DJI stop supporting this drone starting this month January

[GeorgeWS]

Still holding it'd own this original OG 💯

I bought it for 80 Euro in the Netherlands from a guy with 2 batteries.
He said it had a overheating problem. I took the upper shell off and saw the cooler inside was blocked by some sand.
Blew it out and cleared the cooler and it worked. ( 30 minutes work ).
The only thing i dont like about this drone is the airtime of 21 minutes theoreticly and 17 to 18 in real... very short for me.
I could get it to 3.2km in Normal mode (Height 30 meters) and made it back (2% left). Recording 1080p, 30fps and streaming the flight to youtube (deleted it because of my stress swearing when i saw the battery % drop .. haha ).
Good drone that would be perfect if it had more airtime.

Thinking about getting one for 110 Bucks. They are nicely priced nowadays second hand.

Parabéns pela excelente apresentação do vídeo, e parabéns pelo ótimo drone, like garantido e mais um escrito, sucesso no canal, abraços.

I've had one since release. Thr internal storage is generous enough to save a wasted flight.
Got a mini 4 pro as well and they make a good team.

I flew mine again last fall and fell in love with it again. Sucks that the app is no longer supported on newer phones. I'm now thinking of selling my mavic air... The Neo sounds pretty tempting

[trekgod]

Still using mine I got 4 years ago. Fantastic video quality. And you can use Litchi to upload missions and fly it autonomously

[jeromebonnet]

hello, I have this nice drone, are there any hardware optimizations to bring it up to date? (propellers...) thank you

[fatsolutions]

Great video, I have had my Mavic Air up in 20knot breezes and it handles them really well just doesn’t have as long a flight time instead of 18-20minutes more like 10-12minutes

[thunderella]

Great review! I was just looking at a used one, and this definitely helped me make the decision.

[ZlynkaMedia]

What happen with this drone is that have all advanced technologies of today drones, 4K cinematic quality, auto fallow, auto fly etc, and is a lot parts available on the market ✈️

[MachineChrist]

I've found a site that has them for around $220 new in box I believe. I know the price is correct but the new I'm looking more into.

[brucewillis]

I have one in white that looks so much like my wife's CHR Toyota that I got a little one inch Toyota emblem to go on the nose of the drone.

[davinreardon]

What app do you use to fly it? Ive struggled to put mine up for like 3 years now. I swear nobody supports this model.

[kodak_jack]

You have to jump through hoops to fly ANY drone commercially. Are this batteries still around? What kind of range does it have? This is a good review as there are many used ones out there. The Air2 and 3 are bringing $$$$.
