Mavic Air 2 RANGE TEST - How far can it actually go?

Very poor choice area to test. How many active roadways did you cross and at what point did you lose visual line of sight?

Hi, thanks for the video. I hardly ever reach distances of 2000 meters. I sent mine in for repair in The Netherlands (I live in France) and got it back yesterday. Today, I did a range test and got 3700m. I’m fine with that but am very puzzled when I see many other videos where the Air 2 reaches close to 10k meters. I’ve been to various places in the world with little RF interference but still never achieve distances near 4K meters. I don’t understand why my drone fails to reach such distances even with solid battery life.

Man! You live in an amazing place.

How is everyone able to go so far I can’t even go 0.3 miles away

I may head back to Colo Springs in a few years, how are drone laws and restrictions in that heavy military area?

I’ve gotten around 26,000 feet with the air2 21,000 withe Air2s 16,000 feet with the mini 2 my fimi 2022 was 26,000 feet and the mavic 3 was a whopping 36,000 feet all in normal mode

Sport mode is completely counter productive in this test

How r u not getting 4 miles?

Clean quality video

Man they just lied about it about 50% more.......from 10k to 5k

You need the 5.8ghz Yagi-uda antenna. With normal mode. Easy 6km+

yes i agree its battery power but something many dont understand is the batteries are lithium ion. Running lower than 30% destroys the cells inside the battery, which affects its running time in the long term. Thats why these drones have auto return to home at a certain percentage mine is return on 40% power, also you should never store batteries at 100% charge, that also ruins the cells inside. My tip is use a battery and land on 30% then DONT charge until you want to fly again. My batteries have a 40 min usage time, landing on 30% gets me 30 mins flight time, i have 3 batteries so can get 90 mins flying time. So look after your batteries and buy extra ones for more flying time rather than ruining a battery :-)

I got 5 miles with my Phantom 4 years ago . How is going 3 miles any kind of a range test ?

Got to do the test at the ocean!

Were you at 400ft altitude during this. It makes a huge difference.

How does one obtain your kind of job like do you have to go to school for it? Sorry brother I'm just intrigued and would love to travel doing fun things like what your job requires.

Goes way further bro

Damn! Just how I like my videos, straight and to the point!
All the best from the far north of New Zealand and yes, the Mavic Air 2 ROCKS!!!

I’ve gone 3.5 miles away from me

I had the SG907 GPS Drone and it was good until today when it just flew away :( Is this drone worth the price really?. And can the cam move around in all directions?

I managed 9.5 km each way

Flying on planes is AWFUL for your body in all ways. I'd research it man so you don't get affected when you age.. TRUST... Stay on ground our bodies aren't meant to be in high pressures..

Get another phone just for controller.

Sport mode kills ur battery

Take it off sport mode i bet you go further

i like the fact that you are on the roof

mine has only 30 meters high and 50 meters distance...yyyy?????

If you flew the other direction w the direction of wind maybe more

wait what are the black and white lines at the top right of the screen

I live in a area with trees and about a mile and a half is the max I can get.

If you lose signal, does it automatically fly back to the location it took off from?

Time flying with 4K/60fps video 20 min.

Came here for a range test, stayed for the scenery, awesome vid!

Why did you put it in sport mode

Isn’t there some stupid rule thst you cannot fly past line of sight? Haha! Like ANYBODY pays attention to THAT!

Just think how much money on ink and trees we could save if legislators would just STOP writing idiotic laws nobody pays any attention to....!

Seriously, what’s the fun of eye range???? Is there one for height/altitude?

7200 meters is the farthest I've ever been with my Mavic Air 2. I avoid going more than 6000 meters, because going so far is risky.

i have mi drone 4k the range in mi is 4km away but if there is controler with bigger antenas for mi drone in aliexpres and it's says with those u can go 6km away but i like mavic air 2 cuz it's samller faster and u have sensors

Do test in normal mode. Will get further because it won’t eat battery.

Nice area! From the range tests I've seen, the vast majority of them are done in standard speed mode, not Sport mode and the range seems to increase a lot. Sport mode kills the battery crazy fast so you can't go as far. Nice job.

You travel the world full time? Then tell about it - Unless you are lying of course.

"The very new OcuSync 2.0"? It was already used on the Mavic 2 Pro, that you probably sold. LOL. Please learn about stuff before trying teaching about it.

bro i live in south florida,no matter where I go I can get past 2k FEET..help me please

I use pop wallet with pop socket. The pop wallet clips in nicely to the handle. Holds about 3 cards. Just encase you are interested in that.

suck video

brrrooo super sick views from your rooftop !

I can't go past 1200 feet with my Air 2 because I get a loss of signal warning and it starts coming Home on it's own! WTF? 1,200 feet! They need to send me a controller or drone that can do better than that!

I think there's something wrong with your drone, it drains the battery life like CRAZY..

I have mine in normal mode and I can do 14.1 km no issues at all

The actual range is 4.5 miles

The mavic air 2 with Ocusync 2.0 is the best I got 27,000 feet

Beautiful footage and great range test👍👍👍 Thank you for sharing🌈
