DJI Mavic 2 Enterprise Advanced vs Autel Evo 2 Enterprise 640T; Which is the best fit for you?

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 13 พ.ย. 2021
- In this video I compare the DJI Mavic 2 Enterprise Advanced to the Autel Evo 2 Enterprise 640T. These are 2 of the most popular drones for public safety or commercial inspection applications. I conducted flight tests which include tests of the thermal imaging systems, searchlight, speaker and the remote controllers. How to do these drones perform? You'll see sample thermal images and hear a test of the speaker systems. I'll put the remote controllers side-by-side. You be the judge on which unit is the best for your needs.
If you are interested in either of these drones or you have questions, please visit my website at: www.titletowndrones.com .

Thanks for the comparison. Eyeing on the M2E!
A great video comparison of the two aircraft. Thank you Bill!
Thanks Steve!
This video was fantastic and answered all my questions I had about both of these airframes. Thanks much for the video! I've liked and subscribed.
Thank you for your comment!
VERY nice presentation. So clear and easy to listen to. Thanks!!!
Really nice comparison. Thank you
Excellent video Bill. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for the feedback.
Thanks for the comparison. I've been using the Mavic 2 and it has been nothing but great up till now!
Glad it's working out for you. Thanks for watching my video. I'll be posting another video soon about a useful accessory for the M2.
Great Video Bill!
Fantastic comparison of these two beasts. I personally have an Autel Enterprise on the way. I feel better about my choice (for my use case) after watching this video.
You will not be disappointed with the Autel Enterprise. I’d like to hear about your experience with it. Glad you found the video useful. If you think of any topics for future videos let me know.
I have a lot of problems out of my Autel enterprise, been back to Autel and still having issues. My v1 is 💯 my drone will not update
Bill what was the price range of this Autel Enterprise system?
@@danbrewer3683 $3750 with SC

That the enterprise system and not the dual.
Great video Bill! I really enjoy the professional touch of the content. I will soon start a Media focused work in our company that works globally. This video will help me in selecting some of the tools I need.
Thanks for the kind words. It's a process making these videos. I learn new techniques each one I do.
Thanks for the detailed review. I’m really leaning towards the Autel myself.
They do have some strong points. There will be more to consider as the Mavic 3 Enterprise was recently released and Autel will be launching an updated version of the Evo 2 Enterprise very soon. I'll publish a new video when I have more information.
Great video! very informative. Perhaps, in your next comparison putting the features on the screen to help keep it in mind? could be useful to those who are visual learners! thanks!
Great explanatory video
Awesome video Bill! Thank you!
Thank you I appreciate that. Let me know if you have ideas for future videos.
you did a great job on this bill keep up the great work bill
Thank you!
Great viedo. I'm starting a drone business with the intent to get into the inspection and thermal area. Been looking ahead into drones with thermal cameras and this is the best comparison between the Mavic 2 Enterprise and the Evo 2 Enterprise Dual.
Thanks for the feedback!
I am in the same process
, How is it coming along?
Same here. I’ve been doing residential roof inspection with DJI zoom and mini 3. I plan to do thermal work. The the DJI enterprise advanced is at my price point
Great video! i just purchased the autel and did it solely on the thermal! Your video justified my research and purchase. thanks !!!
Glad the video helped you. Thanks for the feedback. If you need any accessories please keep me in mind. I am an authorized dealer.
Great video! Very informative when trying to decide which platform best fits my needs - especially since the price difference is fairly small between the two.
Thanks for watching. I’ll be posting more videos soon. There’s some new updates on the Evo 2 series coming.
Greai video! Thank you for your time!
Very good comparison of the two. I didn't know much about the Evo until now.
Thanks, the EVO 2 Enterprise is very new but the Evo 2 airframe has been out for over a year now. Very reliable unit.
@@BillBongle I think this product is something I need to really check out. I have been flying for many years. Drones and GA.
Excellent comparison. Thank you.
Thank you!
Thanks Bill. I think you changed my mind to go with the Autel.
Its a good choice.
Brilliant technology! I think Mavic 2 Enterprise Advanced suits me more.
Outstanding video
Thank you!
Very helpful video thank you! I have to say I’m very pleased with DJI M2EA!
Thanks for watching!
Great review thankyou.
Thanks for watching.
Very helpful, thanks!
Thanks for the feedback!
Very informative thanks
Thank you for the feedback.
usted es un gran piloto y hace videos muy instructivos todos tus equipos son tope de gama lo mejor felicitaciones sigue asi tu amigo juan de ibagie colombia
Sorry it took a while to reply. I appreciate your feedback. Thank you!
Great comparison of two good drones I have the original mavic 2 enterprise dual and I am less than disappointed with the resolution I did purchase it as soon as it was available and should have waited not my strong point but I will be getting the autel after the next version comes out who knows how much better it will be than the current version great job on your comparison thanks for sharing
An Evo 3 is in the works!
The comparison video was perfect and I love my Autel, but what I really got out of it was the link to the Jackery power station. I must be living under a rock. I had no idea it existed. I just picked it up for 20% off as well as the solar panels. Thanks!
That's great! I am glad you found the Jackery on sale. I love mine. I've used it to run an external monitor in the back of my truck during search missions. It will run a TV all day. Thank you for the feedback.
Thank you!
Great video!
Thank you!
GREAT video! I was going for a DJI, now i'm completely confused. Hahahahaha. Thank you!
Thanks. Especially now that Autel is running a sale ($500 off) until 09-16-22. Contact me info you want more details. info@titletowndrones.com
Excellent video
Thank you!
The Autel looks like a great system. Thanks for the review
Thanks, there is a version 3 now with a few improvements. Watch for a new video.
do these two drones do terrain following?
Very satisfied with the M2E!
You can't go wrong with either one.
I love the dji mavic 2 enterprise advanced. Great drone
It looks like there’s a Mavic 3 enterprise on the horizon. Watch this channel for details and thanks for commenting.
Thanks for the video. I would have liked to see the zoom features on it together with the photo capability. I have heard that the DJI's don't lock the photo in zoom but rather is always take it zoomed out, ie, x1
Thanks for the feedback. I'll look at adding this explanation in one of my next videos.
Bill could you make a video on your thoughts of the Skyebrowse software and Autel partnership. Is Skyebrowse good for accident documentation like they claim. Leaning on your past police experience. Thanks great videos! from SW Wisconsin.
Thanks, thats a great suggestion. I will do a video on this in the future.
Great work on the comparison. Do you have any comparison on how these two drones operate in windy conditions? Thank you!
Hi Andrei. I don't have any empirical data, only my own experience. I have several hundred hours on these platforms. In my experience, the Mavic 2 will perform well in winds up to 20 mph. The Autel will perform well in winds up to 25 mph. While both claim they can operate in higher winds, I don't have a comfort level in conditions that exceed those speeds. The Autel has a larger airframe, more mass and a more powerful propulsion system so it can do a little better in high winds. The Autel unit can carry a payload but in very windy conditions I would not recommend that. A lot depends on how close you fly to objects and gusts.
@@BillBongle Thanks Bill!
Bill, good work comparing both the Evo and Mavic. Been a recreational flyer ever since DJI introduced their Phantom 1 in 2013 and have accumulated a squadron of DJI drones. Finally branching out Commercially with Part 107. Question: The Evo does Picture-in-Picture with Thermal and RGB. Is it adjustable for these two images to be displayed side by side like what Mavic is capable of doing? I like the side-by-side option better when showing the comparison to a client.
Great question. The Autel will display the thermal as full screen or picture-in-picture only. Side-by-side is not an option.
Nice Video - Question: is the Autel able to fly missions.... like the DJI M2EA ?
Yes there is a nice suite of automated flight modes in the app. You can generate mapping missions, oblique and waypoints as well as orbits.
I had a DJI Mavic 3 Classic and although it was a very nice drone, it had one major flaw. It had a huge problem tracking me. Locked on less than ten percent of the time and would easily lose me at only ten mph. This drone was returned to the seller.
I replaced it with the Autel EVO II Pro Enterprise V3 with the one inch 6k camera. I’m not a professional, but I wanted a very high quality, high tech drone. This drone features carbon fiber arms, larger motors and larger propellers. So carrying a payload would not be an issue.
Excellent video. If money was no object then it’s a no brainer, the Autel is streets ahead. They both do the job they were designed for but if it were a life and death situation, I’d rather be using the Autel. As a side note I’ve just bought a secondhand DJI Enterprise Dual for keeping an eye on things on our farm so I’m in no way biased towards the Autel.
Thanks for the comment. I agree the Mavic 2E price is attractive. that said, they are scarce and rumor is that it is likely to be replaced very soon with a Mavic 3 Enterprise.
@@BillBongle yes, I have heard that too after I made an enquiry to DJI about a new Enterprise Advanced. I was contacted by their agent here in the UK and he told me to hold on as there is a new M3 coming out soon
Looks like EVO wins for the screen & speaker loudness. Wish these drones can go longer. I do have an older EVO but have to use my iPad to use its other features. Maybe w/ extra funds I will purchase a bigger DJI drone. Geo restrictions is a no go for me. I do have older Yuneec drones : Q500 & Typhoon H. I wish Autel would have a Hybrid drone. Thank you for your video.
Thank you for the reply. The new Evo 2 640T version 3 has a few enhancements. A little better range with their new tri-band video transmission system and the optical camera seems to have a little better low light capability.
Is it possible to run 3rd party apps like litchi on either platform? Great video!
Litchi is not usually supported on Enterprise models. According to Litchi's support page, the following models are supported. Litchi is compatible with: Mini 2, Mini SE, Air 2S, Mavic Mini 1, Mavic Air 2, Mavic 2 (Zoom/Pro), Mavic (Air/Pro), Phantom 4 (Standard/Advanced/Pro/ProV2), Phantom 3 (Standard/4K/Advanced/Professional), Inspire 1 (X3/Z3/Pro/RAW), Inspire 2 and Spark.
Excellent Video. Dji flyer but looking at more information , I believe Autel wins for me.
I have to say I am happy Autel has created some real competition.
Greetings, I wanted to know if the Autel brand has multispectral drones available and if you are in a position to quote it, thank you for your attention and congratulations for your videos, which are educational and informative.
Autel evo 👍🏽👍🏽 absolutely value for
Yes the Evo 2 Enterprise is a good choice. It just went on sale, $500 off until on 09/15/22. titletowndrones.com/autel-evo-2-enterprise
HI, Bill, I'm looking to get into the drone business, to do survey for others business, do inspection, also take photo and video for wedding, I don't have or had any drone yet or in the past, what will be your suggestion for me?
Thank you
Does the Autel take both a R-JPEG and a RGB JPEG at the same time as the ME2A? Also will the images both stay zoomed in on the Autel when you view the files as rhe ME2A doesn't? Finally have you had a chance to test the RTK connectivity of the Autel as I keep reading that there is an issue with the ME2A?
I'll test this and let you know.
My agency would like to demo these two drones. We have several Mavic 2's at this point, but we are thinking of trying out an Autel.
I am in NE Wisconsin. If you're in another part of the country try reaching out to a local Dealer and see if you can arrange a demo.
Which drone would you buy between DJI Mavic 3 or Autel Dual 8k thank you
It depends on a few factors. If you are going to fly in controlled airspace frequently, Autel does not require an unlock. Autel seems to have more options for accessories and payload delivery. On the other hand, DJI is a very reliable system and is a little more compact. I like the zoom on the Mavic 3. I'll publish a comparison video on these 2 next.
im an environmental enginer, i was wondeting which on its better for thermal analysis, and georreferencing products like topography NVDI?
Both of these drones are equipped with the same thermal sensor, the Infiray. Each manufacturer provides its own thermal analysis tool as a free download. If you need specific data from agriculture you could explore getting an NDVI equipped drone like the Phantom 4 NDVI.
I have always preferred Autel drones because they make the most advanced drones. But Autel has also been putting out incomplete drones, where features are not working as advertised. I have recently bought an Evo 2 Pro Enterprise V3. I have a few hundred flights and understand a little about frequencies and antennas and I will explain here to dissolve any confusion about those things. I have lots of experience with the Evo 2 Pro V1 as I have 2 of them and have done lots of comparing and troubleshooting over the last couple of years with them. The Evo 2 Pro E V3 which should have a 15km transmission I just got barely transmits as good as my Evo 2 Pro V1's, which have a 9km transmission. When you go to the transmission screen on the new Evo 2 Pro E V3, there are no options, the screen is empty, Autel has explained to me this will be done at some update, it has now been 5 months since the drone's been released. The drone is very obviously working on a 2.4Gz signal, that is a short wavelength and should have a 2 inch antenna, just like most all drones up till now. The reason the transmission is barely keeping up with my Evo 2 Pro V1s, is because they put a 4 inch antenna, which is optimal for 900Mhz frequency. 900Mhz Is a longer wave that goes better through walls, when they do the update this will be an amazing drone yes, for now, if you've had an Evo 2 Pro V1 in the past, you will feel quite dissapointed. I do get real flight times of a little over a half an hour compared to 25 minutes which everyone always exagerrates, so Autel did real good there yes. So Autel put out a new drone with supposed frequency switching, but it's not doing any of that yet and the antennas are optimized for 900Mhz, which the drone is not working on, because if it was working 15km with 900Mhz would be amazing in the city yes. Of course at 900Mhz you then get a slower waves, hence slower data transfer, so I'm not even sure if they can transmit data at 1080 at that frequency, I would be fine with 720 resolution at 900Mhz, I still see power lines good on the bright screen, right now it is 720, I can easily tell, they havent updated that either. Respectively, a 4.8Gz transmission or 5.8, would be optimas with about an even shorter antenna probably closer to 1 inch, with makes it easier to fit inside your cellphone as you go up with Ghz :-). This is a very disappointing thing that Autel is doing and I hope they do the update for the transmission soon. I paid 5k for this thing and that was one of the main reasons I bought it for. Autel has also released a new drone with something very important not working as advertised. They kept my drone in repair for weeks so I got my money back from Blue Skies, who I bought it through. I then got the same drone through Amazon and found that the feature is not working on that one as advertised either. I have considered sueing Autel but I have always liked and supported Autel, and would prefer not to do this. If Blue Skies does not end the bank case against me I will tell everyone here what this feature is a lot of people would be upset, and I would hurt Autel, I would prefer not to do this. I hope they do an update to fix this soon.
Autel have 5 options in mission mode. Just slide all 3 icons to left and there will pup out 2 more options.
Awesome Bill. Here in the UK I volunteer for SAR. I’m torn between the M2EA and the Autel, I am not a drone business so funding the would come straight out of my savings, and unless i gathered donations its tough to justify. That said the autel, looks to beat the M2EA hands down, that screen alone, plus the picture in picture. Is this the current thermal drone from Autel? Or is there another one out there? Great to see real football pitches in the background too, none of that US football stuff 😉
Great to hear from you in the UK! I visited 3 times, Merseyside, Eastbourne and Knottinghamshire. The Evo 2 Enterprise is indeed the latest version, recently released. I am confident this is a good choice for SAR. I agree with you, it is a superior craft.
@@BillBongle if you had ventured a little further North you would have seen the UK at its best. Yorkshire.
This weekend I flew the Evo 2 Pro Ent V3 in some stronger winds, with longer arms and larger motors you would hope it would perform better then an Evo 2 Pro V1. It did not, it would slow down and drop altitude and even gave me tilt warnings instead of wind warnings. They have not even programmed the FC good for the wind, this is terrible. They need to do a serious update for the FC. I've flown my Evo 2 Pro V1s in powerful winds that wanna knock you over, nothing can take that thing out of the sky, the winds yesterday were not even close to that strong and the Evo 2 Pro Ent V3 sucked badly. It took them till June 6th 2022 before they had the final FW update that gave us dual stability on the Evo 2 Pro V1 also, thats 2 years after the drone was released. So thats how long we might be waiting before they fix things with this one. I'm starting a drone company and I can't even do serious filming with this drone because the dual stability is what got the Evo 2 Pro V1 real close to the Mavic, as far as smooth flying for filming goes. So at this time if I was doing serious filming, I would still actually be using my Evo 2 Pro V1 drone. Autel is focused on making money pushing the Evo Max 4T now and other products and is taking their time with this drone poeple spent 5K of their hard earned money on. And lastly, can we please stop beating around the bush with these useless accessories and make a drop arm like we know that that's what everyone wants. Can someone who knows electronics please rewire one of those useless accessories they give us and make a drop arm. I would be willing to pay handsomly for one.
Hello
Do those drones are waterproof?
Do they float?
I am looking for approved marine drone for operations from ship.
Thank you
Gb
Neither of these drones are waterproof. If you need something that can be operated in wet weather or precipitation, the DJI M300 has a rating of IP45. IP 45 means it is protected from low pressure water jets from any direction.
Bill, can you help me out? I am looking at purchasing one. Can you confirm that the Evo 2 is just the 640T Enterprise V2 with the Iray thermal and not the Dual 640T Enterprise with the Flir?
Both models are available. The 640t is what I reviewed in the video. The dual v2 Radiometric is the FLIR version. If it’s an enterprise package it’s v2. The Evo 2 Enterprise 640t is $8700. The Evo 2 Radiometric dual (FLIR) is $12300. Feel free to email me at info@titletowndrones.com
@@BillBongle Thanks! The important thing for me was that the regular 640T was radiometric also. I need to be able to see the temps of areas in post processing.
@@dustburk9390 yes the 640t is Radiometric. Explained here. titletowndrones.com/autel-evo-2-enterprise
Greate video. I am doing post-processing. Can you let me know if the thermal camera is Radiometric or Non-radiometric? Can you send me some samples of images taken by them? Or could you let me know if images are .jpg or .r-jpg Thank you very much!
Thank you. the images from he 640T sensor are radiometric however you will need Autel's proprietary software to interpolate the data and create reports. This will offer similar capabilities as FLIR tools. Here is the link to download Autel's IR PC tools. www.autelrobotics.com/download/139.html This software is compatible only with a Windows Based PC. I am not sure about the other part of your question, I will look at some images and let you know about the file format.
@@BillBongle Thanks! That is so cool.
Great video Bill. Can the Evo 2 do split screen like the M2E?
Thanks. No, the Evo 2 does Picture in Picture instead of split screen.
Thanks. No, the Evo 2 does Picture in Picture instead of split screen.
Good to see Autel keeping up but Im sorry I have to say the Mavics are still superior.
Each of the these drones have their strengths. Thanks for watching.
I currently own an EVO II 8K Drone. I accidentally crashed it. There is no visible damage. Now the drone wants to immediately flip over upon take off. What could be causing this problem?
his sounds like a problem with ehe flight controller or possibly a malfunction of one of the motors. You should send it in for service. Contact tech support here: www.autel.com/c/www/support/3132.jhtml
@@BillBongle Thanks Bill for the reply. I found a video on the EVO website for installing the propellers, and noticed that I installed the propellers incorrectly. The original propellers were damaged during the accidental crash. I am waiting for the new propellers to arrive. Hopefully that will solve the problem.
@@StephenDouglas0921 Oh yes of course, the correct propeller must be installed on the correct motors. The quad-rotor design means the drone uses a counter rotating design. 2 propellers turn clockwise and 2 turn counters clockwise. Two propellers are marked with a white ring near the center and two are plain black. They should correspond to the motor with the same markings. Reversing them would certainly result in a tip over. Good luck! If you ever need a source for propellers or batteries, feel free to contact me. I usually keep them in stock.
Can you connect the DJI to an iPAD?
No, I don't believe so. There are solutions for you to connect a small external HDMI monitor that mounts to the remote but this is for viewing only. No Touch screen capability.
@@BillBongle thank you greatly and Happy Thanksgiving
Hi,
A seller is selling a dji mavic 2 enterprise advanced drone and propellers only(REPLACEMENT, unopened and BRAND new).
I want to use this drone model as like non enterprise, recreational as I am not part of any company.
I will really appreciate your advice on below questions:
- Will the seller be able to un-bind his replacement M2EA from his account so that I will be able to buy a unbound original smart controller from ebay from another seller an bind the drone and smart controller with my account after making the in person purchase?
- Is it ok to purchase that replacement drone for full functionality using controller and other required dji accessories bought from different owners?
Asking because, I have never purchased any enterprise dji drone and need a second opinion other than the seller.
Thanks in advance.
I think if the seller contact DJI support, they can unbind it form his account so you can bind it to yours. I would contact www.dji.com/support
@@BillBongle, Thank you so much!
Maybe it's just my tablet but I can't hear you. Otherwise a great video
Thanks, I'll check my volume levels on future videos.
What is your favorite drone, and why?
iPhone screens have been brighter than 1K nits for a couple years now
iPhone 12 and 13 are 800 nits. Less than half the brightness of the Autel remote.
@@BillBongle Galaxy S21 Ultra gets 1379 nits measured, 12 Pro Max and 13 Pro Max both get over 1000 sustained with the 13PM being slightly brighter, but yes, much less than the autel
Why in the world are you powering a tv from a inverter? Don't you know they make inverters for vehicles that will power a tv that size all day for 20 bucks that plugs in the cigarette lighter....
Dji utilizes geofencing. Autel leaves the responsibility of flying to the owner and doesn't use it.
Autel is the clear choice, unless you can unlock the Dji. Even then, Autel is the better choice.
Many public safety agencies have expressed the same sentiment. A warning is sufficient, they don't like the unlock requirement of DJI.
Seems like EVO would be best for hog hunting. Do you agree?
Thanks but Had
To stop watching. background music?? irritating
A great video comparison of the two aircraft. Thank you Bill!
Thank you !
