So I saw on some videos that the mavic air is more agile and faster because it is capable of leaning more aggressively which makes it faster/more agile. Do you think this makes it better in the wind even though it's lighter than the mavic? I'm interested to see the relationship between the aggressiveness of tilt vs weight of the drone in windy conditions

Tom, I really enjoy your posts. I try to view them whenever possible. I believe It was you who mentioned in one of your segments about the Course-Lock feature no longer being available on the Mavic Air - I would really like to know your view of the new Tap-Fly suit of options on the Mavic Air. I personally think that they more than make up for the the absence of the Course Lock feature! You do such a great job going into detail with your reviews, I think your subscribers might appreciate it as well, since few (if any, to date) have covered this powerful new addition to the Air. Keep up the great work!

Thanks for the review and for all the details. Can I recharge the batteries using a power bank? What kind of port it has. As it has just 21 mins of flight mode, I want to know if it can be charged when I travel where I will have just a power bank with no power supply for a week during my Himalayan trekking. I will definitely carry more batteries.

The rear facing obstacle avoidance, I find with my Mavic, flying towards the sun can stop my drone moving, flying backwards fixes this. Not so with the Mavic Air, you’d have to use sport mode or fly sideways. Can just the rear sensors be turned off while leaving the front sensors active?

what would you do? i have the mavic pro but i'm considering to sell it because drones under 500grams (like the mavic air) do not have any flight restrictions in switzerland (which are pretty hard). it's perfectly clear that i wouldn't fly next to an airport, but in switzerland the no-fly zones are in a 10km radius around airports which leave out almost no space to fly Thanks for your help

Great review and awesome footage.Just wondering the return to home feature , returns to last point of take off, not bank to controller, or do you have that option? Would be nice when filming from a boat...could be especially bad if battery runs low and it returns to home , but home is no longer there due to boat moved..

Best review of Mavic Air!!! What is the wind impact on Mavic Air? 430g to 743g Mavic Pro...the question for me is really important because at the North Sea there is every day wind and if the Mavic Air shakes too much the 100MBit/s does not really help...Cheers DrDuu

Do you have a guess on when mavic pro 2 will release?

None of the early reviewers have properly compared the Intelligent Flight modes with the Mavic Pro. The Mavic Air does not have Course Lock, POI, Home Lock, or Fixed Wing mode. Course Lock and POI are absolute essentials for many of the Cinematic shots I like to use. I also haven't seen any evidence that the Active Track feature on Mavic Air includes the Profile and Spotlight modes of the Mavic Pro (we've only seen Trace mode). Profile is the most important tracking mode for most movie scenes using Active Track. I guess keeping quite on certain details was a condition of being an early reviewer. To ensure we remain in the dark until after the initial launch sales, DJI still haven't released the manual download for Mavic Air.

To give you a quick tip towards your Switzerland incident where the card was full. You should get one of those USB dongles that convert your phones charging socket into a USB port. Then you can carry around an SD card reader and hook it up to your phone to empty the drone card.
