Wow that was incredible! That really is in a different league. You went 3 miles out and came back and landed perfectly. Watching this was like I was there. Thank you.

Outstanding video and flight. Thanks so much for posting! I've been waiting for some real life, long range Mavic tests.

i just unboxed mine! you cant contain the excitement! nothing beats the feeling of getting your first mavic pro

Thanks! I was wondering if it would run out of battery before range. Amazing little drone, cant wait to get my hands on one!

Mine arrives tomorrow!!! That range is incredible especially at that frequency and with you on the ground. There must be all kinds of obstacles between you and the drone at 3 miles out!

Awesome video! Towards the end, I didn't breathe until you landed. Way to press the envelope!

Great test of the battery and range! Very informative. I ordered the Mavic too. It's nice to see its real world capabilities.

This s the BEST video I have seen yet! I'm looking getting a drone and this was part of my educational lesson thanks!

Well, Congratulations Tony because you and Michael Kincaid are the only ones going that far testing the range of MP ,great job !

Great signal at 5km away!!! Can't wait to have one!!

Awesome flight last few seconds had me on edge. LoL well Well Done. Subbed!

Great Range Test..That is the best I have seen thus far..Good thing you used sport mode to get out there faster..I was really suprised at the signal strength because I have watched other videos that lost alot of signal at just 1 mile.

Wow this is incredible just purchased mine today looking forward to starting to learn !

thank you so much for risking ur drone on the test ! must be heart beating haha thats so far wow awesome, cant wait to get mine

Absolutely incredible. Excellent video and a very daring pilot.

Thanks for sharing Tony! Excellent demonstration!

Well done brother. Great flight! Now lets get that thing modified and out to double that distance.

Fantastic safe flight thumbs up 👍

That was really awesome, I'm buying one soon!

My son just got his. I have been flying it. Since I fly racing drones I was a little skeptical about the range so your range test is interesting.

wow thats very impressive. Thank you for up loading this video im going to get my own mavic pro as soon as I can thank you.

I ordered my Mavic yesterday. I cannot wait!! There are old gold and garnet mines tucked into the mountains above Palm springs California. I'm going to use my mavic to find them along with ancient native american sites. Very useful tool that will save me a lot of hiking that's unneeded!! Watch for my videos of the sites I find!

Absolutely Amazing!!!!! I cannot wait to get my DJI Mavic Pro!!!!!! I'm so excited!!!!!

Como não deixar um grande like no canal do amigo belas imagens continue assim meu amigo o que depende mim estamos juntos

Wow great demo and distance. I guessed you would have 15 percent battery left when you were still mile and half out lol..Good job. Happy Flying !! GrampaKenCanada

Nice Video! Thank you so much for doing this. I would be sweating the whole time! LOL.

Sir you are the man, that was some very interesting flying and range test. Very impressive quad. 👍👍

that music was so damn relaxing and fucking soothing I loved it so I subscribed and your videos are very nice;);););)

That was awesome mate thanks for sharing!!!!!!!!!

It is realy awsome drone, Thank's for sharing

Great Video - Cannot believe how great the range is.

Great video, thanks so much. Looking forward to buying one of these, my first drone.

Taking off from Walmart!! You sir are an Inspiration

I know from experience with my p3p if the smart rth tells you to go back.. you should listen. If attempting a real long range flight I think the best thing to do is to always start off flying into the wind so you can return home quicker. I would ideally attempt a long range flight into a really light headwind and not to fly long distances on windy days. Nice video!

What an amazing drone. Very smart, very stable.

Wao. Great flight!! Looking forward to getting my mavic pro for in a couple of weeks.

Wow, that is awesome! Thanks for the video.

Just bought mine today and I haven't flown it yet! I can't wait to try this!!!!

Not Sure if Anyone mentioned this but don't forget that there may have been a tail wind leaving and a headwind coming back and that will increase the ground speed going away but decrease the ground speed coming back. I am sure the battery and distance calculation from DJI may be in a no wind condition. Its common Aviation. It may have been a calm wind on the ground but I guarantee it was not a calm wind above the tree line. FYI. This will throw the battery calculation to get home off and you may end up running out of battery before you land.

thats awesome range. its good to know that my company is selling that mavic pro and we can be proud of that

AWESOME VIDEO TONY!!!!

Nice video, hover your mouse over the videos timeline (red loading bar) for a nice kind of timelapse VERY cool :))

Great stuff... I would have been getting really nervous below 25%... Very helpful...

I wonder how much additional flight time we could get by reducing speed to 35 MPH? kinda finding the most efficient speed/flight time for long range missions

Hi Tony Thanks for the video. I have had my MAVIC for about a week now and love it. My question is, What goggles are those you are using. in the beginning of the video, you mention putting them on while you where setting up to take off. You quickly see them laying on the curb pre flight. What 3rd party goggles work with the Mavic.

That was rather intense. I'm definitely buying it in a day or so

great vídeo! Thanks

Dang, man. Great test. Very impressive.

So excited to get my new Mavic for Christmas!

Great video, very informative and nice flying

Great video Tony!

just got mine yesterday cant wait to fly her.

Very helpful video!! Thanks!!

Good test of the Mavics range.

Thanks Tony, have you tried your Headplays with it ? Great vids.

I'm looking into making a purchase now wow this thing is awesome nice video

Great job there

That was a nail biter man, you have some guts, good to know what it's max range is though, great test!

Can you give some tips to maximize signal strength at that distance?....did you mess with the settings at all?....seems I lose signal at 8k ft

Hey Tony, great work, really enjoyed seeing South Carolina from the air! Where did you get that GPS tracker module, and what is it called? Regards, Adrian

How did you hook up the Glyph goggles while still using the Mavic in RC mode? I was only able to use it in WiFi mode.

How do you get the orange line in the map? Mine doesn't seem to have it.

wow love this tutorial! i have or had a phantom 4 myself but got a mavic pro coming on monday. I can't wait to try it out and upload some cool footages! Looks like phantom 4 pro or the inpsire 2 is the way forward now, actually will be interesting to see what improvements the mavic pro 2 will include, what do you think?

epic video. Im still waiting on mine..... tell me what are the extention arms you used to allow a tablet? are they homemade or bought?

Hi Tony - great videos as usual - quick question - how did u set off in Atti Mode when If there is GPS it will set to GPS mode as default ? - can atti mode be preset initially despite a good gps signal found ?

Thanks for the reply, Tony. I'll check into it.

Hi Tony....sadly no Walmart but I get my fix every year or so when we visit the good 'ol USA. We do have Costco here but absolutely no Mavics yet. Regards my friend Noel

Hi. Is it necessary to have a direct line of sight of the drone

What firmware version where are you running at the time and what did Dji go version are you running at the time please and thank you

Great piloting skills!

So here I am doing some research for a new drone and came across this video at random. What are the chances that as soon as the drone takes off, I recognize the location. This is awesome, and thanks for the range test.

Thanks for the video man. What is the model of the tracking device you use? Is it cellular or just some kind of VHF beacon.

Good job and you have more guts than I have. I've gone way out there but no where near that far but I fly over recently cleared water district land to the east of me when attempting distance runs so it's easier to find. My Mavic has been shipped and due in 7-10 days so my P3A will be retiring I hope along side my P2. I'm hoping Flytrex will come up with an adapter for the Mavic as it saved me once already with the P2 when it took off, throttle wide open, on me for some unknown reason. Led me right to it. It was pretty much destroyed but the GoPro 3+ Black was undamaged. Glad to see you didn't violate any altitude restrictions on you record attempted flight. I did notice the spotters you had along the route. :)

Oh ok that's great. Ty for the info

That was cool. Thanks.

To maximize range given a given battery capacity, I have the feeling that from a throttle position standpoint, you'd want to go against a headwind with higher power (presumably going out against the wind), which would give a higher airspeed, than coming home with a tailwind. With the tailwind, reducing power somewhat (vs the headwind leg) is probably best. This would have the result of driving the outbound and inbound ground speed closer to each other than would a constant throttle position. My reasoning is that this is how you get maximum glide range in a glider in wind: Add half the wind speed to your best glide airspeed in a headwind, subtract half the wind speed with a tailwind until you get to the glider's min sink air speed, where you don't go any slower. The reasoning becomes obvious as a headwind gets stronger and stone: To make any forward progress at all may mean max forward airspeed (full power in the quad), and in a howling tailwind, the quads max range speed (in time aloft, which will be faster than a hover) will keep it aloft longer to take advantage of the tailwind. And I bet this could be approximated by equalizing the outbound and inbound ground speeds. Just a thought that I'm sure is valid to some degree.

Shouldn't the tracker weight be centered? Though it didn't seem to effect the drone, but seems the rear motors would have to work a little harder with the weight at the rear.

How r u able to see that live tracking feed in the bottom left corner? I want a trackimo but it says there is a 60 second gap between pings for tracking!

Hello, please reply, what program do you use to break the distance, or what is the way. Thanks

I have a question I just watched your video how is your drone so doggone fast

Edge of my seat on the trip back lol

Good afternoon. My Mavik arrives on Friday and I've been using the Glyph headset with my Inspire for some time. I've had very poor results with iOS (iPhone 6+, 9.7 iPad Pro, and iPad Mini 3, all with cellular service.) Can you please recommend the tablet you use and tell how you figure it to the Mavic? I assume you use the HDMI out of the tablet. Thanks!

I have a question what is the switch that says Wi-Fi and r.c what's the Wi-Fi about?

Insane this drone is a dream

And this is stock antenna no upgrades ? I have a mavick pro and kinda scared to really go out i dunno

hello awesome video!, were you seeing this live the whole time? or did the live video feed cut after a certain distance trvaled? also do you use any exterior equipment such as a range extender?

Thank you for the video. Question for you. Why did you chose a Mavic over the Phantom?

"Sweaty Palms" I laughed so hard - Just got mine and I'm still scared to let it get outside of my yard

Great test video - Question - how do yo record the screen video? thanks

Great job; looks like that pretty much answers the "How far?" question for the Mavic Pro. Did you have emergency landing sites planned or just went for it?

G'day Tony, Well done, great test! Still awaiting my pro combo in Australia. The only disappointing thing is that I would have loved to go into the Walmart for a shopping spree ha Ha. Regards & thanks mate

great vid

Hi. Got mine a few days ago. Still playing it safe till i get comfortable. How do you capture the hud to show up on video. Also is there any sound or a mic? I looked at a lil clip i recorded and only saw video. Thanks.

I did not read all the comments. Just wondering if it is a good idea to stick your drone finder ontop of the gps? As that os where the mavic has the gps located..

Great movie and tutorial, thank you. What was the music you used too?

Hi Tony Griffis , is the experience with the Avegant Glyph headset a good one ? I was looking at them for a while now and still trying to make a decision , great stuff with the distance test ,thanks and take care .

Hi Tony Great vid mate I love that drone! Could you please give me all the details of all the equipment you used eg recover , gps, and the tablet or screen you used any anything else as I loved your setup!. Cheers mate thanks for sharing

how was the video receiving on your fpv screen during that flight?

Tony, Watched this video with great interest. Still awaiting the arrival on my Mavic Pro. YOur support system for a large tablet is the most interesting gone that I have seen. Looks as though you have used 1/4 inch wood trip (0.25 x 0.25) to slip into the arms that would hold a small tablet/smart phone and then used velcro strips in the arms and the wood strips. Is this correct, and how did it work out for you?? Also took a quick look at the camera focus video. Greaet work, thanks for sharing. Cheers ...... Bob
