we've gotten is the new good kana from our friends at polar Pro this is a
pretty cool new product the katana is actually a tray that your DJI mavet goes
into has two handles on the side and it allows you to walk around and film with
your DJI Matic pretty easy to install it's very lightweight small it's nothing
crazy one piece and it has a smaller piece on the bottom that basically holds
your maverick and a polar Pro is known for their high quality products like
their filters and accessories for the DJI products and the new katana is just
another product to add to that list of amazing products from polar Pro it's
very quick and easy to install the katana on your DJI Matic first off you
want to take off the props very easy just push it down spin it off once you
have the process off you'll take the bottom of the tray and just kind of
slide it over the bottom there I like to put it right in the middle that way I
still have access to the battery there and then I'm going to just put the top
of the katana on just like that it just takes two bolts and screw it down once
it's screwed down it'll lock the DJI Mavic in place so you can see there I
have the Mavic now installed in the katana that's what they look like
has two handles on each side so I can hold the Mavic be nice and steady and
sturdy and then on there on the top I can place my phone this fits up to an
iPhone 7 plus I have an iphone 7 plus and I'll show you how it fits I can now
see everything that the Maverick is filming on my phone using the DJI Go app
just like normal it's really cool I'm basically turning my DJI Mavic into a
DJI Osmo for only $49 I actually prefer the DJI Mavic camera over the Osmo for a
couple reasons because the matic camera is kind of pushed in it's a little bit
more cropped in than the x3 so you have more of a cinematic look with the DJI
Mavic compared to the Osmo x3 that originally came with the Osmo the x5 is
gonna be a little different on the Osmo but this in general for $49 you can't
really beat that deal you get a high-quality solid product from polar
Pro to attach to your Mavic another cool thing that I really like about this
setup is the battery life so this battery is going to last for hours and
hours and hours just filming handheld if I turn the Mavic on and let it just film
and walk around with this the battery life is going to last for hours I can
use the same battery I don't need travel with an Osmo I can just travel
with my katana and put it in my case it's very small and simple it's
lightweight it'll fit in a backpack no problem it turns my maverick into a
handheld gimbal when I want to get those shot either skateboarding around driving
walking I'm at the beach walking around the beach I can get some cool shots just
walking around at the beach when I'm done flying the Maverick I want to get
some tight quarter shots I can jump on the skateboard get creative going
through different trees and objects where normally people are going to freak
out they see a drone flying through there I can now just push through or
walk through with a DJI Matic so really cool feature it opens up a lot of
possibilities if you're in an area where you're not allowed to fly a drone you
can pop this on there and walk around film with this if you don't want to
travel with a lot of camera equipment if you just want to travel with your drone
this now turns your drone into the ultimate all around filming tool I can
use it as film from the air I can use the film on the ground and get some
really cool shots I can see this being a really cool feature for wedding
photographers wedding videographers you can get some really cool dynamic shots
walking around with the Mavic compared to having to fly the drone or even have
to be worried about people or people being annoyed from a drone flying around
now you can just pop the katana on there and walk around also I think that real
estate photographers that use the Matic could really benefit from this popping
the katana on to their Mavic can easily walk around a house get a full
walkthrough video just using the same camera that they use while flying around
outside the house they can now just walk around and use the katana to film with
I've seen people you know in the past ring just hold the Mavic it's not as
sturdy having these two handles on each side makes it more sturdy and then
allows you to put the phone there so you can see what you're filming instead of
just feeling to walk around and have to carry your phone for $49 you have
everything mounted there really cool products from polar bro I really like it
I think it's a cool product I think it's something that everybody who owns a
Mavic could use it's going to open up a lot of possibilities if you are a Matic
owner if you want to get those cool shots walking around if you want to go
to mount your phone here on the top traveling around family vacations or
just in general if you're traveling the world this is a really cool product to
get those shots when you're not always wanting to fly your drone you can now
just pop it on the Gitana cinema grade you know high quality 4k gimbal footage
while walking around it's simple and easy to use high quality products from
polar probe it opens up a lot of possibility
for the Mavic if you're looking at different shots when you're walking
around to get different shots in places where you might not be able to fly o
matic like in a national park where you can't fly the mavet you can now film
with them having no problem have your phone mounted there have all your
settings be able to see what you're filming there on the phone and get some
really cool shots if you own the DJI Matic you can't go wrong with adding the
polar Pro katana to your arsenal if you have any more questions leave a comment
