DJI Brings Back the Phantom 4 Pro V2 0 One Year After Discontinuing It

Because of this fundamental difference, WingtraOne delivers much broader coverage required by the majority of mapping projects, while multirotors like Phantom 4 RTK can only cover limited areas. It is all based on which of the 6 different filter options you choose. Even better, is that you can easily capture many different spectrum of reflected light by simply swapping cameras between flights. Sometimes you may not know which spectrum of light will show you the issue you are trying to solve, so having various Survey3 cameras can provide you the necessary insight you require. It’s the fastest Phantom so far, capable of reaching top speeds of 45 miles per hour.

VIDEO TRANSMISSION SYSTEM1.What is difference between dji fly and Phantom 4 Pro Lightbridge systems? The Phantom 4 Pro uses a new dual-signal Lightbridge video transmission system. Users can also switch between 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz control frequencies to cut through interference. It has the same Sport Mode max speed as the Phantom 4 and faster Obstacle Avoidance enabled flight, achieving 31mph . 4.Is there any difference between the front and rear obstacle sensing systems?

The included box for the fits everything you need to fly the drone. The drone itself is smaller than I expected, and fits rather neatly in its included polystyrene box. The box features a latch to keep it closed, and is intended to safely house and transport the drone. The controls of the Phantom4 do take some practice, but it’s the kind of thing that you’ll learn quicker via muscle memory – if I stopped to think which control would pan vs tilt for example, I got confused.

Timestamps are extracted from the module post-flight and combined with images taken in flight as centimeter-precision geotagging using various specialized software options available on the market. If used properly it produces up to 1cm resolution which in turn enables results that meet the requirements of any professional land surveying project. It is ideal for small and mid-size projects where the surveyed area is not bigger than 10-12ha and allows for flights fairly close to the ground. An electronic shutter may cause artifacts and distortion, such as jello, when shooting fast moving objects. A mechanical shutter prevents this and guarantees a high-quality image.

I thought a phone was needed to control the drone along with the controller. FAA estimated ‘hobbyist’ drones reaching between 2.75 million and 4.5 million units by 2021. As of 2018, DJI controlled an estimated 74% of the global consumer drone market, with no other company controlling more than 5%. Announced at the 2017 IFA trade show, it gives the option to have the Phantom 4 Pro painted in obsidian black. Some build quality upgrades are included with the camera gimbal being made of magnesium.

Important to note—Phantom 4 RTK is not compatible with third-party base stations, only with that of DJI. Satellite observation data can be saved in the drone to later conduct post processed kinematics , but to our knowledge, it might come with some extra hidden costs. Wingtra features three interchangeable payload options, flown one at a time, for a range of applications—from 3D mapping along mixed elevations to highest precision maps for resource and cadastral studies. The MicaSense RedEdge-MX offers best-in-class multispectral imagery. The WingtraOne’s UN-certified Li-ion smart batteries can transmit their state of health and charge to the WingtraPilot.

This allows the camera to be moved 90 degrees (i.e. a full range from directly in front to directly below). Zebra lines clearly show overexposed areas of your image in real time. The iPad shows highlight clipping via zebra lines which I found very useful, especially when the iPad screen was hard to see properly in bright sunlight.

The DJI Go app warns you of this the first time you enter the mode, but never again. Regardless, it’s not a mode I would suggest for first-time pilots. First, if photo and video quality are your focus, the dji drones Pro or Advanced are absolutely worth saving up for.
