Key Takeaways

1-inch 20MP camera with rare adjustable f/2.8 to f/11 aperture for exposure control in flight.

Up to 40 minutes official flight time; see about 30 to 35 minutes in real use.

Records up to 6K/30 and 4K/60, but video stays 8-bit and Log lacks full manual control.

Obstacle sensors stop the aircraft; they do not path-plan around objects like DJI APAS.

Strong DJI alternative for pilots who want no geofencing and long endurance, at a premium price.
