Dji Condemns Use Of Its Drones In The Russia

The speed at which you fly your drone affects the time of the flight but does not impact the distance you can go before the battery dies. DJI also records the flight time for the Phantom 3 Advanced at 23 minutes max, while the Phantom 3 Professional and the Phantom 4 fly for 23 and 28 minutes, respectively. The height and distance of the DJI drone’s flight depend on the radio’s range and which battery has been installed.

Russia’s assault on Ukraine has increased scrutiny on DJI over fears that Beijing’s close geopolitical partnership with Moscow might hamper the company’s efforts to prevent its products from being used by the Russian army.

When it launched, the Mavic 2 Zoom was the almost identical twin of the DJI Mavic 2 Pro, apart from one key difference – its camera has optical zoom. Rather than the 1-inch 20MP sensor seen on its ‘Pro’ sibling, this drone pairs a smaller 12MP sensor with an 24-48mm optical zoom lens. This is extremely handy, as it means you can capture close-up shots of subjects like people at events, without needing to fly as close as other drones. And while the newer has Mavic 3 does have a telephoto lens, it lacks true optical zoom, instead switching between cameras of different focal lengths. The Mavic Air 2’s controller brings Ocusync 2.0 connectivity, which takes its range up to 10km and improves the stability of its signal to the DJI Fly app.
