DJI MAVIC PRO

Yup.. it's finally out.. I was lurking in the forum looking for someone to post on this but seems like no one posted yet. So let's just start one. Can delete if there's one similar.

Shipment will start on 15th October 2016. Will be in stores by next month. I believe this MAVIC will be the next big thing since Phantom came out years ago.

Is there any Malaysian vlogger or youtuber that manage to get a hand on this? Could be interesting to find out how the MAVIC flies here.

I'm not going to copy paste all the technical info.. suffice to put the link to DJI MAVIC PRO.

Main point:
The first high quality imaging smart drone that you can bring along for travel without carrying extra luggage.

High quality imaging - capable to take good picture and video.
Smart drone - active tracking, follow-me, smart cinematic camera movement (dolly, crane), one-man operator camera
Easy on luggage - foldable, small in size

Things to consider:
Smaller in size, means lighter in weight - will probably face some issues handling wind. Reviews showed that MAVIC handles that quite well.
Foldable means we're exposed to another mechanical part that may fail due to wear. Loose or too tight..
Smaller FOV.

Go ahead and buy this on
DJI Store.
Free shipping. Tax inclusive, as mentioned on website and as experienced by forumer here. I'll try this myself too.

And there's local distributors here in Malaysia. Check on:
March.my
Shashinki.com
directimaging.com.my

Local price: RM4500.00

Have fun flying!

Update: 16November 2016
Mavic is only shipped in 2 variants, Mavic Pro and Mavic Pro Flymore Combo. Difference as mentioned by @doppatroll below:

Today's tip by @szern

Running in new batteries recommendation:

For the first 5 cycles. Fly to 40% and recharge.
For the next 5 cycles. Fly to 30% and recharge - treat this as a gentle run in period for your batteries.
After the Initial 10 cycles fly to 20% and charge.

For long term use and Maximising the life of your Mavic's batteries.

I would recommend setting low voltage alarm at 30% and always aim to land at 20%.

Avoid flying to below 10% during normal usage.

Enjoy and safe flying.

haha wish so too..

I keep 'racun'ing myself... there's more vids available on youtube now. the quality of vid seems comparable to phantom 4.

and browsing dji forum, those who got it keep repeating how solid it was built on.

casey neistat's early vlog showed some out of focus vid from mavic. however he made a statement two days back, he didn't know there's manual focus on the mavic. tap to focus (TTF) as said by DJI.

basic tutorial for mavic is already out on youtube. drool.gif

There is no problem with focus la. Just that most people didn't know about tapping to focus...

Never heard of the problem on follow me while going downhill though. I've seen the video of Mavic following a bicycle on a slightly sloping downhill and there wasn't any problem though.

If you look for the DJI Mavic Pro on 11street, you can find one of the more aggressive pre-order pricing offered by TMT Online (Thundermatch). I've checked the DJI website, they (Thundermatch) seem to be listed as an authorized reseller.

Just Mavic Pro with RC @ RM4299 (supposedly comes with an additional 32GB U3 MMC Card)
http://www.11street.my/productdetail/pre-o...r-2016-21145679

Mavic Pro Combo @ RM5599 (supposedly comes with an additional 64GB U3 MMC Card)
http://www.11street.my/productdetail/pre-o...o-free-21149844

Try looking for some of the 11street discount/coupons, should be able to lower by another RM30 or so.
Couple that with credit card (no additional transaction fee).
And lastly, they also have zero-interest installment via selected banks.

I'm not affiliated with them but I have been looking for the best pricing...

Actually it's already discussed in dji official forums... https://forum.dji.com/thread-65890-1-1.html

And regarding the tap to focus, apparently you need to set the focus each time you fly, currently you can't lock it at infinity
http://www.phantompilots.com/threads/tap-t...-example.91541/

Granted, they're not dealbreakers, but I'd rather they hammer out all the minor problems first before i think about spending that much for a drone tongue.gif

Not sure about pricing... However, you may have a problem with warranty..
If anything happens, you'll need to send (or travel) back to Shenzhen/HK to warranty the drone.

Gonna wait for more reviews before deciding

I actually wanna see how gopro will respond to mavic, probably reduce the price of karma? Or dji has a mavic standard hiding somewhere unsure.gif
