Hi there everyone. Welcome to my channel. Today we're
going to take a look at the third video in my
Mavic 2 Enterprise Advanced Series. Comparing it to the original
Mavic Enterprise dual.
First up, we're gonna take a look at the Mavic Enterprise
dual. This is the original thermal drone released by DJI
back in 2018 and we have to select the temperature picker
from the top right and then we can select the spot on the
screen where we can see the temperature that is actually
reading. This was the original one where nothing else was in
the consumer market. So, it was actually really good when it
got launched. But now it's 2 years later and DJI released
it Mavic 2 enterprise advanced and now let's take a
look at the footage that comes out of that camera. As you guys
can see, we have doubled the altitude and slightly further
away, and the quality is significantly better. Even when
we zoom in two times, you can see it's still a lot better.
Four times, still better than the original. And when we go
over to eight times, that is when you can start to compare
the quality between the original dual and the
enterprise advanced. So, there is a massive difference in camera
quality and it's not just resolution. It's really a huge
upgrade. With the Mavic enterprise advanced, you also don't have
to select the temperature drop down option. You can just tap
on the screen and you can already see there's quite a
difference in the accuracy in the temperature. Not only is
the dual significantly closer but the temperatures are also
wildly different. So, the temperatures on the advance is
a lot better. Also, with the dual, you would have to go
select the new temperature selection box from the
drop-down option. With the advance, you simply just drag
on the screen and you've got your temperature box
essentially. Where it can show you the hottest and the coldest
temperature in a range in front of you. Very useful
functionality. But let's quickly jump over to flying
the Mavic Enterprise Dual. At a altitude of twenty-two meters.
You can see there's not too much visible. And if you go up
be safer to where you'll be safer to where you'll
usable but it's not gonna give you something that you can use
as a security option. Whereas with the Enterprise Advanced on
the other hand, you can see there is a huge difference. At
an altitude of forty-one meters, we're not even zoomed
in yet and we can clearly see the definition in the houses in
the distance and it's already about four or five times better
than what you could see on the dual. I actually feel quite
comfortable flying at night with this unit. Especially if
you're comparing it to the original dual. We are flying at
minus fifteen meters and the definition is almost unusable.
Especially if you're flying low, you won't be able to see
cables, trees, items like that until it's too late.
Whereas with the Enterprise Advanced, you're flying at
effectively fifty-five meters higher than with the enterprise
dual and we can see cleary see definition in the houses around
us. You can even see the pylons and the cables on the pylons
and we're not even using the zoom. We're flying at a safe
altitude and if you want to, you can actually just stop
somewhere and focus on a point and then use the digital zoom
option. The digital zoom in two times mode I feel is very
usable compared to the four which is reduced quite a lot
but the eight times zoom essentially is comparable to
what you get with the enterprise dual. So if you're
using the Enterprise Advanced with two times zoom, or
four-time zoom, I think you're getting greater value. If
you're using the eight-time zooms, you are pushing it to
essentially the same limits that you used to have with the
enterprise dual but you're gonna get significantly closer
without having to fly closer. Here weare just quickly flying
back with the dual. We can hardly see the pylons and we're
flying at an altitude of thirty meters and we are almost back
at the vehicles and we still can't see them clearly. Only at
about eighty meters do you really start to see the
definition? And as you can see we're thirty meters up and
we're at forty meters away and we can see some people on the
ground but you're not 100% sure. We have to get even
closer and there's still no clear definition between the
vehicle and the people standing outside. As the complete
opposite is true with the Mavic 2 Enterprise Advanced. Here
we're flying over the vineyards and you can see the clear
definition of the road next to it as well as the bushes next to the
actual vineyard itself. And as we turn around you're gonna
start seeing the definition in the actual of the plant
itself. As you can see each one of these plants have a little
white spot at the bottom. That is the actual stem of the plant
sticking out of the ground. Now we're flying back You can see
the wires off the pylons and it's just a lot more clear than
you could see on the enterprise dual. You can also see us in
the background by the vehicle. We are still over 100 meters
away, forty meters in altitude and we can clearly see two
people standing there where that was not clear at all with
the enterprise dual. So yeah, we've got a definition of a
car. We've got two people standing there and as they
move, you can see the individual movements as well.
So, all in all, a massive difference between the
enterprise dual versus the enterprise advance. Here we can
see a quick clip of a park. We're using the white hot color
template and if you switch over to the black hot, it actually
shows a very different picture. I actually like switching
between the white hot and the black hot templates because it
gives us different pictures and a different view of the actual
heat in front of us. The definition of the buildings are
completely different. And I feel these color tempers serve
a very good purpose.
In this scenario, we are at forty-four meters. And we are
still able to see the person quite clearly. In this case you
can even see the person's arms as they waving them around. And
as they walk and try and hide you can still clearly see the
definition of that person. So as we come a bit closer you can
see the definition of the arms. The person jumping around. And
you just can't see it with the dual's camera. The dual is not
even an option in the scenario. You can even see the definition
of the car in front of us. So as we come a bit closer
you're gonna see the person's actually going to go and lie
down on the ground itself. And just take note of how the
ground looked before the person lied down there. As you can see
there's a clear definition of the person on the ground. You
can see them moving around. But as they get up you'll notice
there is a little white dot where they were lying down. Now
if you just look at it, you wouldn't spotted it first but
that wasn't there before the person lied down. If we can zoom
in a bit, you can see that white spot. That white spot is
actually the person's cellphone and they're gonna realize it
pretty soon and they're gonna pick it up. And you're gonna
notice that the heat of the cellphone is actually quite
easy to spot from thirty meters up in the air. It's quite
impressive if you think about how small the cellphone is and
how easily we spot it from thirty meters up in the air. We
also gonna cycle through some other color templates so you
can see the other options. I still really like the white hot
option but iron red gives you that classic thermal look and
you can see the red of the heat signatures compared to the
other options. Now black hot looks really good as well.
Especially in this vineyard area. That'll probably be the
best option to find someone. As you can see the black stand out
significantly more than the other options. And when someone
moves around it your eye also catches it. But personally
my favourite still is the white hot option. I'm just
naturally inclined to look at the white.more than any of the
other colours. Well, that brings us to the end of the
video. If you guys like the information that was shared and
you guys wanna check out some of my other content on my
channel, please consider to subscribe as it really helps
out the channel. I'm gonna leave you guys with some
footage of the drone coming into land and you're gonna see
once again why I'm actually in love with this drone, because
you're gonna see the definition on the clothes of the people
standing there just with a thermal camera. It's something
that you have to see to believe. Especially if you
think about it. The other camera that's capable of this
clarity is the H20T and that costs 90 000
South African rand just for the camera alone. And then you
still need the m300 or a similar type of drone to
use it. So this is by far the best value for money drone on
the market right now.
