Aerial Zoom. The Mavic 2 Zoom features a 1 /2.3” 12MP sensor with 24mm-48mm zooming capabilities for dynamic framing options. The 4x lossless zoom with included 2x optical zoom makes your shot more accessible while maintaining safe distances and the improved hybrid autofocus systems boasts 40% faster focusing, even when zooming in and out.

DJI Smart Controller Included. This rental includes the DJI Smart Controller which is an upgrade to the standard Mavic remote. The Smart Controller’s integrated 5.5" LCD can display a daylight viewable, HD video feed up to 60p and flight data plus it allows you to easily share and stream your footage using the SkyTalk and DJI Go Share apps. Rated for 2.5 hours of use on a single charge, DJI boasts line-of-sight drone control up to 5 miles in ideal conditions. We find that rating to be unrealistic but with the DJI OcuSync 2.0’s auto-switching technology, this drone is capable auto-detecting the strongest local signals for improved transmission reliability.

High Resolution, Stabilized Shooting. This drone is a lightweight quadcopter that can shoot video in UHD 4K (3840 × 2160) at up to 30 frames per second. While shooting in 1080p, the drone has the capability of extending that up to 120 frames per second. A photo mode offers the choice of 5472 × 3648 pixel DNG raw or jpeg images, and the sharpness of the camera’s photo and video capture is maximized by DJI’s super-smooth, fully integrated 3-axis gimbal. If you’re a first generation Mavic Pro user, be warned, DJI did remove the DCI 4K resolution option here but we think the added zoom functionality might be worth it.

Omnidirectional Obstacle Sensing. The Mavic 2 Zoom has a new sensor array to provide obstacle sensing and avoidance on all sides. With that, DJI designed the new APAS feature to take advantage of that by automatically sensing and avoiding obstacles in the drone’s flight path with minimal input needed from the user.

45 Mph Top Speed & 31 Minute Flight Time. DJI reports that in lab tests with ideal conditions (Read: not the places you’ll likely be using it) the drone has a 31 minute flight time. A more realistic average is probably around 20-25 minutes. The Mavic 2 Zoom can reach speeds of up to 45 mph, a 5 mph improvement over the original Mavic Pro.

Subject Tracking Modes. The gimbal offers multiple options for locking onto and easily tracking subjects like people, vehicles, and landmarks. Trajectory prediction and high-speed tracking features are both beefed up from its predecessor. Landing is simplified to a button press, returning the drone to the location where it took off from, and lowering itself delicately onto the ground.

Drone Bound to the Included Remote. By default, the drone will arrive bound to the controller that’s included with this rental, so you won’t be able to use your own remote. If you have any special requests regarding controller binding, please contact us.
