Last week GoPro launched their Karma portable drone. This week DJI join the party with the Mavic, their take on the compact portable 4K camera equipped quadcopter.
The Mavic is a neat package, with the arms folded it takes up very little space and without a battery weighs a mere 750g.
But it comes equipped with a 4K camera mounted on a stablised gimbal and, thanks to obstacle sensors and a tracking system, it can even follow you, a feature lacking with GoPro's Karma . The Mavic's GPS receiver can track both GPS and Glonass satellite networks and, if you add a smartphone to the controller,you can stream live 1080p footage as you fly. In fact you can junk the controller completely and use your smartphone to control things.
The Mavic is available for pre-order right now at £999.00 and is expected to ship in mid-October.
