A: The DJI Mini 4 Pro introduces significant upgrades across its vision sensing, imaging, video transmission, and intelligent systems. While retaining its lightweight 249g design, it features an omnidirectional vision sensing system for full obstacle detection. It also employs a new image-processing platform, supporting 4K/60fps HDR video recording, with the addition of 10-bit D-Log M and HLG color modes for enhanced shooting options. The DJI O4 FHD digital video transmission system extends the maximum transmission range to 20 km* under ideal conditions. Additionally, it comes with upgraded intelligent features, including ActiveTrack 360°, Waypoint Flight, Advanced RTH, and Cruise Control.
*Transmission distance is tested under FCC standards in optimal conditions and may vary in real-world use.
A: The batteries are set to hibernation mode for safe shipping. Before using, insert the battery into the drone or charging hub, and connect it to the charger to activate the battery. Once activated, press the power button once, then press and hold it for two seconds to power on the aircraft.
A: Using DJI RC-N2:
Connect your internet-enabled mobile device to the remote controller, then link it to the DJI Mini 4 Pro through the DJI Fly app. Follow the app’s instructions to complete the activation of the DJI Mini 4 Pro.
Using DJI RC 2:
For the initial setup, connect DJI RC 2 to the internet via Wi-Fi or a smartphone hotspot. Follow the steps in the DJI Fly app to activate the remote. Once activated, connect it to the DJI Mini 4 Pro via the app and follow the prompts to activate the aircraft.
A: The DJI Mini 4 Pro has a maximum wind resistance of 10.7 m/s (38.52km/h or 23.93 mph)
Wind resistance depends on the drone’s propulsion system. Due to its lightweight design, slight vibrations may occur in strong winds. However, the powerful propulsion ensures stable hovering and safe return to home. The DJI Mini 4 Pro automatically adjusts the gimbal to keep footage steady and unaffected by wind.
A: Avoid exposing the device to water, as it may cause damage. If the drone encounters rain during flight, return and land immediately. Wait until the aircraft is completely dry, both inside and out, before resuming use.
A: Yes, the maximum transmission distance can vary depending on the level of wireless interference in different environments:
Unobstructed:
Strong Interference: Urban areas, approximately 1.5-4 km
Medium Interference: Suburban areas, approximately 4-10 km
Low Interference: Suburban/seaside areas, approximately 10-20 km
Obstructed:
Low Interference with Building Obstruction: Approximately 0-0.5 km
Low Interference with Tree Obstruction: Approximately 0.5-3 km
These figures are based on FCC standard tests conducted in both obstructed and unobstructed environments with typical interference. They are for reference only and do not guarantee actual transmission distances.
A: The O4 video transmission system features a new hardware solution and includes an additional frequency band*. It also benefits from an upgraded communication algorithm, offering FHD video transmission up to a maximum range of 20 km** and enhanced anti-interference capabilities for greater stability in complex environments, such as urban areas. Additionally, the remote controller supports a 1080p/60fps real-time live feed, providing a smoother viewing experience.
*Availability depends on local laws and regulations. **Measured in an open outdoor environment with no interference and in compliance with FCC standards. The data reflects the maximum one-way communication range for non-return flights. Always follow app reminders during your flight.
