Notes
[1] The standard weight of the aircraft (including the battery, propellers, and a microSD card). The actual product weight may vary due to differences in batch materials and external factors.
[2] Maximum speed in Sport mode is 19m/s when operating in EU regions.
[3] Max wind speed resistance during takeoff and landing.
[4] Measured with Mavic 3 Enterprise Series flying at a constant speed of 32.4 kph in a windless environment at sea level until the battery reached 0%. Data is for reference only. Please pay attention to RTH reminders in the DJI Pilot 2 app during flight.
[5] DO NOT expose the infrared camera lenses to strong sources of energy such as the sun, lava, or laser beams. Otherwise, the camera sensor may be burned, leading to permanent damage.
[6] In some countries and regions, the 5.8 and 5.1GHz frequencies are prohibited, or the 5.1GHz frequency is only allowed for indoor use. Check local laws and regulations for more information.
[7] Measured in an unobstructed environment free of interference. The above data shows the farthest communication range for one-way, non-return flights (with no payload) under each standard. During your flight, please pay attention to RTH reminders in the DJI Pilot 2 app.
[8] Data tested under different standards in unobstructed environments with typical interference. Uses for reference purposes only and provides no guarantee as to the actual flight distance.
[9] Measured in a laboratory environment with little interference in countries/regions that support both 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz. With footage saved on the officially recommended microSD cards. Download speeds may vary depending on actual conditions.
[10] Will support more DJI aircraft in the future. Visit the official website for the latest information.
[11] Data was measured in a controlled environment and is for reference only. Actual use experience may vary depending on software version, sound source, specific environment, and other conditions.
