Marvelous Mavic
Rating: 5
Many drone pilots are wondering if the Mavic Pro will cannibalize sales of the Phantom 4. This is a VERY capable drone with a very good camera and gimbal. The app had its moments right when I first got it, but has become a lot more stable with the last two updates.

Mavic Pro is Awesome!!!
Rating: 5
Awesome drone, flown it many times, takes great video. The DJI Go 4 app also has a video editor which works very well to edit, add music and share your videos to social media etc. Don't be misguided by the reviews talking about the NFZ "No Fly Zone" with any drone purchase you need to follow FAA regulations, you can still fly in some of these zones by contacting the airport and letting them know you intend to fly in the zone. Rating the drone on NFZ's has no reflection on the product, simply uninformed users. DJI builds a quality product, the Mavic is simply amazing.

What a thrill!
Rating: 5
The Mavic is a great drone whether your are a beginner or expert pilot. It is small and compact which makes it a breeze to transport to any location. The camera takes great photos and video up to 4k. The seller is awesome and I would recommend buying from them.

amazing drone
Rating: 5
I brought this from sams in may. I have flown it over 30 hours and over 100 flights. I update every firmware. I never calibrated anything. Its been a flawless product so far. Amazing long list of things it can do. When i ask it to return to me on its own called RTH (return to home). It lands by itself within an inch from where it took off and recorded HOME. I did buy the goggles It took awhile for me to get use to them and get a true 1080p out of it but I always use the goggles now The drone is a keeper too. Just read the manual and use beginner in the app and fly their simulator in the app as well. Read about FAA rules and comply. Have fun. You will

till today, the best drone in market.

This is beyond my expectations in GPS locations and danger zones not to fly. I had to call the control tower of some airports before using my drone and follow the procedures in the DJI app to unlock my drone. This is a very simple process that guarantees you will not cause any damage to manned aircraft in the area close to airports. Without this feature, you wouldn't know you're in a danger zone. #sweepstakes

Marvel of the Mavic Pro
Rating: 5
There's nothing to not like about this drone. The features and capabilities deliver an amazing flying, photo, and video experience. Every time I take this little drone out for a flight, I'm continuously amazed at how they are able to pack so much in to such a small bundle. The camera isn't as good as the Phantom nor the Inspire, but it holds it own and is, by far, the best in its class. The GPS, flight controls from the controller and altitude all work flawlessly. DJI has thought of almost everything; from beginner mode to expert. Their DJI GO4 apps is loaded with so many tools that make the drone experience enjoyable for people at all levels.

Mostly great, but minor issues.
Rating: 4
I bought this item strictly as a toy, but have had a blast with it. It shipped quickly, and came with everything promised. The pictures and videos are incredible, and is VERY easy to fly. Pretty consistently it would disconnect from the controller, leaving me helpless. Eventually it will "fly home", but it makes me uncomfortable every time. I just sent it in for repair hoping for a fix!

poor video quality
Rating: 1
If you are hoping to take high quality video then this is not the drone for you. It has "jello" effect which means as the video pans side to side or top to bottom, there is a very noticeable "jiggling" in the picture and recorded video. There is also a serious glare from the camera dome when the sun is low or hitting the dome. It renders the video useless. The benefit to this drone is its portability and light weight...that is great but the video is not useable.
