    I have a feeling I could fly this drone for 7 days without landing and someone would comment how they saw another TH-camr fly it for 8

    Importante vídeo.
    Bom saber o alcance antes de perder o sinal. E saber também que tem bateria para divertir bastante. Drone muito seguro esse Dji mini 4 pro.
    Vou adquirir um e entrar para o clube.
    Obrigado de Brasil ! 🇧🇷

    Great video I noticed that you were holding your controller in a vertical position. For the best signal results hold it horizontally towards the drone so that the signal can come from the top of your controller it will definitely make a huge difference.

    Helpful video! It’s good to see the range test in less than ideal conditions. BVLOS would be good for getting shots of inaccessible areas. Having the capability is appealing.

    Great to see a range test on the Mini 4 Pro. I noticed the RC signal (I believe that's what it is) in the upper right of the controller screen was red from around 2,000 feet and beyond. I didn't realize the drone could fly much further once that turned red. Also, the controller displayed "weak signal" for most of the flight. The first time that happened to me with my Mavic 3 classic I freaked out and brought the drone back immediately. I'm like you, and don't see a reason to fly the drone too far. I just drive or hike to an interesting place and fly from there. Plus, it's a bit nerve wracking to fly too far.

      Thank you for watching! Yeah it’s nerve racking flying out that far. But all in all they hold signal pretty well.

    Furthest I’ve flown mine was little more then 10,000ft but I had to fly it really high once I got to around 5000ft so I could get better signal. I see other people flying it much further but there was unrealistic. Thanks for doing a legit range test I was getting worried why I couldn’t go no where near as far as other have said

    • @JordanHandwerker
      @JordanHandwerker  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I know it’s a broken record, but signal interference is real, especially if you’re flying it in a neighborhood or something, if you’re elevated above buildings, structures or trees etc you could potentially get better signal, everyone keeps telling me to get on my roof but I doubt that will increase the range at all.
      I’m glad you enjoyed the video, and happy flying!

  • @InaMopar

    You have to point the top of antenna towards drone so instead of aiming it more up aim it forward down towards the drone

  • @joeyyambor9350
    @joeyyambor9350 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you so much for sharing this range test, I flew mine until the RC signal became red then I came back to home, I was very skeptical on flying it any further after I seen the RC signal turn red, should I basically just look at the bar signal whether or not it's red or what? Again thank you much...

      You’re welcome! And thank you for Watching, I honestly feel I probably could have kept going but when the video feed gets choppy and I can’t see is basically where I call it quits, but to be fair I could have kept the stick pushed forward for another 1,000-2,000ft longer and still gotten more range

      Push it as far as you want, as long as you’ve selected a good home point it will automatically start returning to you if you lose connectivity. I figured this out on the side of a mountain, while scrambling to try to get it to reconnect lol.

    Well done video with a lot of info for like me who also live in a very heavily wooded subdivisions. I'm a newbee and trying to decide between the 3Pro and the 4Pro which cost almost 50% more over a good low time 3Pro. I don't have any clear patches of land as you do around me to get better transmission. I was hoping to see the worse direction for 100% tall tree interference to see what I would have. I'm guessing it would be at least 50% less of what you got in this test
    There's a couple of things I'm curious about. (1) How can the drone fly way past the point of having no bars? and (2), I thought the drone would automatically return to home (or go back towards home) if it looses all the bars.

    • @JordanHandwerker
      @JordanHandwerker  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If it looses all connection it will do an automated return to home, in some instances the connection just needs to adjust itself internally to receive the transmission signal, eventually it will indeed drop out once any signals cannot reach the drone. I would say the Mini 3 pro should still get you a rock solid connection compared to this ( although I haven’t owned the mini 3 pro ) I think if you have the budget go with the 4 or if you’re trying to save some coin go with a good used 3 pro

      @ginginthing ปีที่แล้ว

    Why not put an Apple Tag or some other type of GPS device on it , in case it comes down etc ?

    • @JordanHandwerker
      @JordanHandwerker  ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s not a bad idea, the only problem i see with that is it may tip it over the 250g limit which would cause you to have to register it which isn’t a huge deal for me but still sucks

    For some reason your drone went down that far away how do you recover it? Is there a beacon?

    • @JordanHandwerker
      @JordanHandwerker  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      There is a portion in the app where you can use the “find my drone” function, unfortunately it only works for as long as the battery has a charge. After that you’re on your own trying to find it without any beep indicators to point you in the direction of the aircraft

    Why on DJI site show that the range is 20km

    • @JordanHandwerker
      @JordanHandwerker  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Multiple reasons, they test the drone in an environment where the terrain is probably very flat or they test the range where the terrain drops down so there are no obstructions, little to no wind conditions, clear line of sight will get you a lot further than an area that has homes, trees, WiFi and electrical interference

      Probability of that but also I think it’s more where I live in a wide open area with no interference ( houses, trees, power/telephone poles/lines etc ) all play a part too. 2 miles is still a long way to fly a mini drone 🤘🏻

    • @JordanHandwerker
      @JordanHandwerker  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes it’s good for 20KM but that’s only really in absolute ideal conditions, No interference, no structures or obstacles in the way, flat earth for 20km. Like I mentioned in the video I was trying to make it more realistic in the fact most people are going to be flying this near their home or in a city. Not to mention that the 34min flight time that DJI claims is actually less than that ( on average I’m getting roughly about 25-28 minutes in good conditions)
