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.

Good Luck.
this is my dream drone _ I just started a you tube channel and this would be a perfect addition to my set up and work its packed with great teck so its hard to choose what I love best but if I had to choose one thing auto take off and landing 🙂
The obstacle avoidance feature sounds great
The most amazing part about this drone is the fact that it has collision avoidance feature and the 10km range. so it wont collide into ceilings or any other objects like a wall etc. and 10km is a great distance to travel. also, the return “home” feature is super useful when uve lost sight of your drone
The drone’s ability to find safe flying zones nearby is excellent
The automatic landing and obstacle avoidance features are amazing…this would be a great feature for my older parents who would be very nervous to try this…would be great for nature shots – particularly of waterfalls!
The feature to find safe flying zones nearby is great. Would love to fly this and see my neighborhood from a different perspective.
Very impress with the portability, battery life and 4k video quality of the DJI Mavic Air 2 drone! I wish I could win one please!
photo features including SmartPhoto, Hyperlight, Panorama, and HDR which I could use to take photos of nature in their habitat.
I’m just excited about the thought of clear 4K filming! Drones can produce some of the coolest footage and I’m after having to cancel our wedding due to COVID, I’m hoping to use this to get some cool shots of our mini ceremony this summer!
Automatic takeoff and landing would be awesome!
4k video is crucial!
I would need the auto landing feature!
The auto landing feature for sure.
Film in 4K at 60 frames per second!
i would totally love to try the Follow feature on this Mavic Air 2 drone!

Love this drone! Definitely fired up for the video quality, 4K at 60 FPS would basically future proof my content and make sure it looks good in perpetuity..
Awesome drone- thank you! 🙂
It is very portable and user friendly. I am going to use drone to check my rooftop condition, drains, and walls. I feel like it will definitely give a lot exciting experience while I stay at home due to Covid-19.
Obstacle avoidance sounds great!
Auto follow feature sounds amazing would like to try that when sailing
I love the multiple types of photos it can take. That’s the most important feature for me.
I really like the ability of the drone to identify safe places to operate. This could help avoid some serious hassles. Cheers!
The auto takeoff and landing for sure 🙂
auto take off and landing is a great feature
I would be afraid of crashing the drone, so the auto takeoff, the ability to detect obstacles while flying would be great. Shooting in 4K is cool too.
As I remain mostly at home, due to my age and being immunocompromised this would be an incredible way to experience the beautiful vistas in my area. I am eager to try out: the 500-metre max elevation, the 10 km (6.21 mile) max distance, and the 64kph max speed.
i would totally love to try the Follow feature on this Mavic Air 2 drone!

Tracking, better cam and obstacle avoidance would be a nice upgrade!

Aside from OcuSync 2.0 transmission technology, I would also like to see how good is the new Advanced Pilot Assistance System 3.0.

auto takeoff is great but autoland is even better…NO CRASHING!
This drone would be a dream! My fiancé and I had to postpone our wedding due to covid, like many, our lives have shifted and we are planning a campervan conversion so that we can travel and live off the grid!
