The Mavic Pro (HK$7,759) is one of the latest drones from Chinese manufacturer DJI and its first to target more casual users. It has a compact form, a small remote control and foldable quad rotors. Rated to fly for 27 minutes and at up to 64km/h on a full charge.
The Mavic Pro’s design is a departure from the Phantom’s curvy body and not quite as futuristic looking as the Inspire. It’s more angular and masculine but folds away to just bigger than a large hand. A transparent shield protects the camera which can be removed or kept on during flight with a slight drop in image quality.
