Best Drone for Architects | Gear Review of the Mavic Pro

An in-depth gear review of the best drone for architects available today. I discuss the factors that influenced my decision to purchase the Mavic Pro from DJI, unbox it, and describe the use cases and features architects care most about. Factors influencing my decision to purchase the Mavic: cost, portability, camera quality, ease of use, and flight time. The Mavic Pro managed to come out on top in each category almost every time. I purchased the Fly More Combo for $1299 which included extra batteries, a four-hub charger, a car charger, extra propellers, carrying case and a power hub. I'm using the Mavic Pro as a portable drone for: Project documentation Presentation + marketing Architectural cinematography Site analysis Topographic mapping Construction observation Educational tool Lead generation (working with Realtors) I also discuss the essential accessories and apps you'll need to operate the Mavic Pro: ND filters by PolarPro, Airmap, DJI Go 4, UAV Forecast, SunSeeker I close the video by reviewing current FAA regulations regarding hobby and commercial use of drones in the USA. // GEAR I USE // Aerial Footage: *Mavic Pro: http://amzn.to/2rZ6DIO DSLR CAMERA: Canon 70D: http://amzn.to/29klz7k LENSES: Canon 24mm f2.8 Lens: http://amzn.to/29l7ac5 Canon 40mm f2.8 Lens: http://amzn.to/29x2QcI AUDIO: Rode VideoMic Pro (hotshoe mtd.): http://amzn.to/29qlNM3 ATR-2100 USB (dynamic mic): http://amzn.to/2dFDaKp ARCHITECTURE GEAR: Prismacolor Markers: http://thirtybyforty.com/markers Timelapse Camera: http://thirtybyforty.com/brinno AutoCAD LT: http://amzn.to/2dxjMDH SketchUp PRO: http://amzn.to/2cRcojz HP T120 Plotter: http://amzn.to/2dBGf1O Adobe CC Photography (Photoshop/Lightroom) Plan: http://amzn.to/2dhq5ap STARTUP TOOLKIT: Architect + Entrepreneur Startup Toolkit: http://thirtybyforty.com/SPL ~-~~-~~~-~~-~ Please watch: "Making a Site Model - The Outpost Project"    • Making a Site Model - The Outpost Project   ~-~~-~~~-~~-~
