Having two cameras on your drone is the perfect solution for those who want the ability to get a bird’s eye view while still having the flexibility to capture the action from a distance. There are several models that can help you achieve this.
DJI Air 2S
Using the same frame as its predecessor, DJI’s Air 2S offers the same 88-degree field of view and a f/2.8 fixed lens. However, DJI has made some improvements to the electronic speed controllers, which make the Air 2S even more agile.
The camera on the Air 2S features a 1-inch CMOS sensor. This is a significant upgrade from the Mavic Air 2’s 1/2-inch sensor. This sensor helps to deliver better image quality, especially in post-production. In addition, the camera is capable of 5.4K Ultra HD video.
The Air 2S also offers a number of automated flight modes. This includes a Point of Interest 3.0 feature, which enables the drone to follow a subject around a circle based on the radius of the circle. The drone can also create a timelapse video. The DJI Fly app has also been updated, making it easier to add soundtracks. The app also includes a number of new features, including a Cine mode.
The DJI Air 2S also offers an industry-leading AirSense system, which uses four-way obstacle avoidance detection. This feature helps to keep the drone away from obstructions and provides visual alerts. It also offers a GEO 2.0 geofencing system, which keeps the drone away from restricted airspace.
Another new feature is the DJI Fly app, which has been updated to make it easier to add subtitles to videos. The new app also includes a variety of pre-programmed themes, which are designed to enhance the visual experience of video footage.
Skydio 2+
Designed for flying, Skydio’s automated flight features do not require hours of flight experience. It flies where it wants, and it uses advanced active tracking flight modes to avoid obstacles along the way. It can also do some classic drone shots.
The Skydio 2+ features a 12 megapixel sensor with an f/2.8 equivalent lens. It also has two pop-up antennas that increase its range. The camera produces clear images and can shoot in 4K resolution at up to 30 frames per second.
It can also shoot super slow-motion in 1080p high definition. But the camera on the Skydio 2 is not designed for general purpose UAS, and it lacks some post-processing features. It’s also weakest in low-light conditions.
The camera on the Skydio 2 has a few features, including three-axis stabilization. It also shoots 60 frames per second at full 4K resolution. It has an integrated collision avoidance system, a cable cam, and a vortex mode.
The Skydio 2’s most impressive feature is its ability to avoid obstacles. It uses a combination of six cameras to avoid objects along the way. It also has a 3D mapping system that uses a real-time 3D map of the surroundings. The software on the drone updates at 500 iterations per second.
There’s also a camera on the Skydio 2+ that features a keyframe-based movie capture tool. It can also edit existing keyframes.
Autel Explorer
Compared to its predecessor, the Autel Evo II has a number of enhancements. It has a larger battery capacity, an 8k camera, a dual camera drone, and a longer flying distance.
Autel Robotics launched EVO II at CES 2020. It’s a professional drone that promises great improvements over the original EVO model.
The EVO II has a number of features, including a remote controller, a three-axis gimbal stabilized camera unit, an 8K/20MP visual sensor, and an 8K/48 megapixel RGB camera. This drone is perfect for both enterprise and commercial applications. It’s also compatible with the Autel LiveDeck system, which allows you to stream video to your mobile device. The Autel Explorer app is also available for iOS and Android devices. This app is free to download and can be used for a variety of applications.
The Autel Explorer app lets you adjust the flight direction, calibrate the compass, and adjust the Evo 2’s flight parameters. It also features Gesture Control, Rectangular Mission, and Waypoint Flight. The app also includes thermal imaging analysis tools.
The Autel Evo II can be flown in manual mode with GPS on. It will hover in place if there is no path available. When the battery is low, the drone will return to its home point.
