DJI Mavic Air combined with a sports camera, comparable to Parrot ANAFI's low-angle aerial photography?

Parrot ANAFI's 180-degree pitch lens has brought new impact to aerial photography and has become a major attraction. It even discussed it as defeating DJI Mavic Air. But recently, YouTuber combined with Mavic Air and GoPro sports cameras to create a modular drone that can be “bottomed up” like ANAFI.

Mavic Air can also be used for low angle aerial photography

The YouTube channel "Dro nes and Electric Unicycles" uploaded a video titled "Parrot ANAFI Hack – DJI Mavic Air With GoPro Hero" on June 10th to demonstrate how to make DJI Mavic Air also have low-angle aerial photography, which is combined with sports cameras. .

Place a Shanghai cotton sticker under the GoPro camera and/or in the center of the DJI Mavic Air top.

Place the GoPro camera on the top of the Mavic Air.

Turn on the GoPro camera and Mavic Air and take off.

To do this, you need a DJI Mavic Air, a GoPro Hero 5 or the same type of sports camera, and a sponge sticker. The production steps are as follows:

1. To reduce signal interference, turn off the WI-FI and GPS functions of the GoPro motion camera;

2. Attach Shanghai cotton tape to the center of the GoPro camera and/or DJI Mavic Air top;

3. Place the GoPro camera on the top of the Mavic Air to make sure it does not hit the propeller;

4. Turn on the GoPro camera and Mavic Air and take off.

Good: drone lens safe navigation

Visible from the clip, the Mavic Air is still stable when the GoPro camera is loaded (plus the protective case weighs 145 grams). Compared to Parrot ANAFI, if the camera is at a certain distance, when the lens is 90 degrees upward, or because there is no front view to affect the navigation safety, this drone combined with Mavic Air and GoPro has no risk. Mavic Air lens can be used. For navigation lenses, GoPro lenses are shot at low angles.

The YouTuber recommends using a tripod mode to make the drone more stable.

Bad: aerial picture or after-demand shockproof

However, it also has its disadvantages. It is not necessarily safe to mount a sports camera with adhesive tape, and in the absence of a shock-proof pan/tilt, the aerial image may require anti-shake. Third, not all sports cameras can change settings remotely, affecting the efficiency of aerial photography.

Finally, the YouTuber recommends that when using this aerial camera, Mavic Air's settings turn off the obstacle avoidance feature and use the tripod mode to make the drone more stable. In fact, this method is suitable for most four-axis aerial cameras, but to ensure that the motion camera will not be blocked by the propeller.
