ADU 1197: Can I Use the Mavic 2 Pro for Cell Tower Inspections and Construction Site Mapping?

On today's show, you will learn why the Mavic 2 Pro is NOT the right drone for cell tower inspections and construction site mapping. Our caller for today, John from Oregon has recently purchased a Mavic 2 Pro for a cell tower inspection business. Additionally, John also wants to use this beginner DJI drone for preparing construction site maps. While the Mavic 2 Pro's Hasselblad sensor might be great for capturing vivid images, can you use this DJI drone for conducting cell tower inspections and preparing construction site maps? Is John better off using the Phantom 4 Pro or an enterprise drone like the DJI Inspire? For all this and much more, tune in to our latest show now. Thanks for the great question, John. Fly Safe!
