DJI drones are versatile for photography and really fun to fly. Their newest model, the DJI Mavic Air 2, can film in 4K at 60 frames per second! That is seriously amazing. It can reach amazing heights, speeds, and distances, so it’s much more than a toy. However, when used responsibly it elevates your senses—you’ll feel like you’re a bird in the sky! Read more about the newest drone in the DJI family, then enter for a chance to win the demo model that we had reviewed on the blog.

What can you do with a drone

A drone is more than just a flying camera. It does fly; and it has a camera. But fly a drone and suddenly you realize this is a very unique experience. First there is the feeling of lift-off—you’ll never forget that surge of excitement. Remember you are in control, elevating, tilting, drifting to the left and right. There is a learning curve, but it’s not steep; quickly you adjust your perspective to react appropriately to capture the bird’s eye view of your surroundings. If you are able to use it near your home, you’ll will gain a new appreciation for the world around you. For me, rising about ten metres above my house allowed me to capture a view of several gulf islands including Saltspring and Pender.

DJI packs their drones with amazing features

With the new DJI Mavic Air 2, you will be able to do so much more than you might think from the moment you turn it on. It is so easy to use. We sent the prize for this contest to Shelly to test it out and she was amazed that she instantly was able to capture smooth, professional looking videos, right out of the box. Watch her video to see some of the images of her farm taken with the drone.

Shelly shows what’s included with the drone, how to assemble the drone, and offers some tips on how to fly it. She also speaks to many of the unique features that enable you to do some really interesting things with simple menu selections. I love the Helix Quickshot function!

The Mavic Air 2 has many features to help you get the most from flying it. It can even help you find safe flying areas near your home. This is very important; you will want to be sure about what areas near you allow drones and if there are maximum height restrictions too. You should read Shelly’s article for a more in-depth descripton of some of the key features that she tested. Be sure to return to this page to learn what you need to do to enter our contest.

  3. I like taking unique photos and having a chance at taking aerial shots is most interesting to me.

  12. I would be most excited for the obstacle avoidance feature. I have minimal experience with drones but I would love to try learning it

  14. I love the compactness of the Mavic AIr 2 and to be able to fly a drone without having to get a licence would be great. Going on a hike or fishing I can see getting some great shots.

  23. Aside from 4k. I’m also interested in the 8k time lapse videos. Air sense for for better maneuvering and the improved active track. This would be a game changer for me!

  25. I want one! I like the quick shot feature with the helix pattern for capturing images of static or moving objets.

  29. I like the fact it can Let you know about safe fly areas and height restrictions, 4K ultra HD camera is icing on the cake

  30. So looking forward to being able to see our Edmonton River valley from a bird’s eye view!

  35. The auto take-off and auto-land features sound like it would make this drone a breeze to fly! that, along with the obstacle avoidance and return home features it’s sure to make flying this drone a dream!

  39. auto take-off and landing features are pretty cool, if you can only program it to fly certain routes, it would be so cool !

  42. I love it that it will automatically register its home point, if the battery gets low it will fly itself back to me.
    Shoots photos and videos in 4K, 2K, 1080p, or 8K Hyperlapse that will preserve my desire to fly like a bird and share my experiences of a senior in his 70s with the rest of my family and friends.

  45. Having never owned a drone, and given the distance this drone can travel, I believe the return to home feature is essential.

  47. The Mavic Air 2 alongside the Advanced Pilot Assistance System 3.0 (APAS) is amazing! I am eager to try the SmartPhoto feature with scene recognition that can adjust its own settings. The auto take off and landing is very ideal for any drone, but this one is high tier. With the Helix Quickshot function, it would be a pleasure to own 🙂

  48. I would be most excited for the obstacle avoidance feature. I have minimal experience with drones but I would love to try learning it.

  50. The obstacle avoidance and return home features would both be awesome. I’ve never flown a drone, so having those would help with learning to fly it.
