      In fact Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. died during his suicide mission. The plane he was in was wired to the hilt with explosives, he was to bail out and then the plane would be piloted remotely and steered into a German munitions factory, it went badly. JFK had to step in and be groomed to be the first Irish Catholic president.

The first test I did was at the beach and it was pretty windy, so I only flew 17,000 ft before the drone said it needed to return because f battery level. But my reception was still perfect, it was cool I flew straight down the surf meeting the sand at about 15 ft high for over 3 miles and I recorded it. I love my Air 2, it’s not overrated, it’s really a capable drone.

    I would love to see you guys fly this same route and do a range test of the original Mavic Pro, which I think was the bird that introduced the Occusync system(?) not sure about the facts. But as far as myself, I'm a very conservative shopper and so far, have refused to buy any other Mavic since buying the original... No Mavic 2, No Zoom, No AIR (yet!!) I'm really tempted to buy the Mavic Air2, very impressive drone. Thanks guys!!!

    That was fun. Thanks. Yesterday, I was filming a bridge and ended up dumping my Mavic Mini into the stream. Thank goodness they are cheap. I looked at the Air2 for a replacement, but it is a lot of cash to lose. Perhaps, I need to be more careful. I have a second Mavic Mini already so it is not the end of my flying. I will decide in the next couple of days on upgrading or replacing. Good fun all around. TTYL...

    Those intelligent flight batteries drop down to around 55% or so if you fully charged them but say leave them sit in your storage bag to 2 days or so before you fly again those batteries self deplete. Some people do not realize this but it is a failsafe and should make the batteries last longer.

    They're both using Ocusync 2.0 - if anything (and providing you get your antenna orientations correct) the P4P has a hard limit of 17.9km videio transmission whereas the Air 2 is limited to 11km so at least in theory the P4P could be pushed much further. Throw in the P4P's more robust powetrain and its more likley to make it home in stronger wind conditions vs the AIr 2. Still both great little quads, cant go wrong with either!

    OK, I can vouch for the 15,000 feet - I actually went just over 17,000 at the Oregon Coast just 4 weeks ago. My Mavic Air 2 still had a good signal when the safety system kicked in and decided it needed to turn and start home to insure there was adequate battery to get there. Weird, it quit at about 17,000 ft but still showed 60% battery level. I still had 35% power when it returned home. I’m thinking the drone was gauging the power requirement based on the initial flight north along the surf, where it was flying against a pretty steady southern wind. Not sure. Bottom line this is my 3rd Drone and it is awesome - My first drone was a Parrot Beebop 2, then had the Parrot Anafi, both were great in there own right and for their respective cost. Parrot makes some really good drones also and at pretty reasonable prices. But I gotta say, the DJI Mavic Air 2 is at another level. Great drone design, very durable, great distance, great reception, great camera, great flexibility, great software. It’s just plain fun to fly and goof around with. It makes a 62 year old man like me feel like a kid again. Which I sure noticed was the case with these two fellas. Good job guys I enjoyed the video. Thanks

    I am currently using the DJI mini 2 and I have noticed on range testing that i got better distances when using the compass located in the corner of the map screen. If I am facing the east and flying out around 1000 feet and make a turn with the drone and my controller is still facing the same direction I will lose signal. But when using my compass I can see the direction of the drone and it allows me to point my antenna in the same direction as the drone which will allow me to get a better signal and go further. It also helps to fly in an area where their is little or no interference such as wifi or radio or tv towers. Actually it’s hard to find an area like that unless you are in the dessert or somewhere. But if you can find an area just open land that is a couple miles long you will have better results. Personally for me I live in the mountains of West Virginia and I can’t find any area that is open like that so just flying in an area with interference I usually lose signal around 6 to 8000 feet also. But using the compass really helped me point my antenna towards my drone and it did increase my range. I have enjoyed watching your videos. Keep flying and have a great day.

    @Ken Heron Ken, Even though the Phantom 4 Pro V2.0 was originally released with the first version of Occusync through updates it was upgraded to Occusync 2. I am sure you have updated since so you should be running Occusync 2 also! Nice Test Bro!

    Hey Ken! I've been following you for a few years now, even remember when you got in an accident and had your phantom in its heavy duty case and it survived without a scratch! ... back to the point, you've really inspired me along the way, I've had some cheaper drones to learn and mimic your stick movements to make the drone move smoothly. Ive most recently got myself a mavic mini and have been gaining some traction through Facebook and Instagram but from one droner to the other is there any advice I could get from you in terms of starting a drone buisness or even a channel

    To should be added both craft are using Ocusync 2.
    The Phantom 4 Pro V2.0 added Ocusync 2 when it moved from Lightbridge 2 and is compatible with the Smart controller,
    The Mavic 2 Series, P4PV2, M200, M300 and Mavic Air 2 are all using Ocusync 2 ,however there are subtle differences in the way the steam is handled to allow for more range on some vs others. And more output power help.
    The reason the Mavic Air 2 get more range is it’s using directional antennas in the top of the controller rather than omnidirectional stick antennas. This with a few tweaks is how it has the increased range.
    However they are all technically Ocusync 2, really the M300 should be Labelled as Ocusync 2.5 as it’s very similar but just tweaked for more range again and more features line pilot hand off ect.

      @@KenHeron Matrice 200 don't have Occu 2.0. Just Matrice 210V2. All previous versions have Lightbridge. Actually Matrice 210V2 Use Cendence-S with Occusync 2.0. Matrice 210V1 And 200 use the same Cendence of the Inspire 2 with Lightbridge 2.

    You’re facing the antennas the wrong way using the air 2 ...it was only like 500ft in the air and yet u were facing the antennas almost straight up.. could of gone a lot farther dispite losing LOS, I bet it would of gone double what you did,

  • @dronewilder5234
    @dronewilder5234 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Guys, to get the best range you need the antenna pointed perpendicular to the drone- so in this case the phone holder rails should be pointing towards the drone. I fly CE mode and get range beyond 7km (about 4.5miles)... thats even more than dji claim for CE mode.
