  • Today, on this super hot day in the middle of nowhere, we are reviewing one of the 2

  • drones that DJI has released today.

  • This is the Mavic 2 Zoom drone.

  • And behind me are the ruins of a Tintic Standard Reduction Mill, which has been off limits to the public

  • for the last 15 years.

  • It was built in the 1920's, about 100 years ago, and the only way to get close to it without

  • trespassing is with one of these.

  • With the zoom feature on this drone we can get pretty up close and personal.

  • Let's get started.

  • [Intro]

  • Alright, so this is the Mavic 2 Zoom, and there are a couple major differences between

  • this and the previous Mavic 1.

  • My favorite is that it actually has sensors on every single side.

  • Sensors on the side, sensors on the front, and sensors on the back.

  • So no matter what direction you're flying this thing, it's going to be pretty hard to

  • wrecknot impossible to wreck, but much harder than the previous Mavic and the other

  • DJI drones.

  • While these ruins might look like a colorful graffiti gangster castle, it was actually

  • built around 1920, about 100 years ago, to refine the ore.

  • Ore is a special type of rock that contains many types of valuable elements like gold,

  • copper, silver and lead.

  • If you can extract those elements from the ore, you get instant money.

  • It was built into the side of a hill because gravity would help flow the ore from the beginning

  • of the process, all the way down to the end after the precious metals were extracted.

  • Unfortunately, this mill only lasted about 5 years, partially because of an antiquated

  • extraction method called the augustine process.

  • One cool thing about the DJI Zoom is that it's camera can actually look up at the sky

  • instead of staying level with the horizon.

  • And it doesn't catch any of the propellers while filming.

  • It adds a whole new dynamic to the camera.

  • One cool trick you can do with a drone that has a 2x optical zoom, is something called

  • perspective distortion.

  • When I'm flying toward something, or flying away from something, I can zoom in or zoom

  • out at the exact same time and make the background and foreground have kind of like a warp affect

  • to it.

  • You can add this in post sometimes, but you lose image quality.

  • Where I'm doing it directly out of the drone with the lens itself, I'm not losing any of

  • that quality with a crop.

  • The augustine process was an acid drying leaching process, in which the ore was first roasted

  • with salt and then leached in a strong brine solution, and finally precipitated with copper

  • to recover the silver.

  • Each batch required about 140 hours to run.

  • And the recovery rate was pretty high.

  • About 85% of the silver, 60% of the copper, 32% of the lead, and 7% of the gold was able

  • to be extracted from the ore.

  • The reason the whole place is off limits currently is because of the high levels of lead and

  • arsenic left over in the mill, covering the landscape, making it relatively dangerous

  • to humans and trespassers.

  • And also because the buildings are basically falling apart.

  • You can see the metal reinforced re-bar popping out of the concrete in many locations.

  • Another problem was that it didn't get enough quality ore from the nearby mine, which shut

  • down the whole building 5 years after it was constructed.

  • You can still see evidence of the water tanks, ore bins, the crushing rolls, the iron boxes,

  • and the leaching tanks.

  • It's a pretty cool bit of history.

  • So with the Zoom drone, you might be thinking to yourself, 'well, it's probably easier to

  • spy on people', which isn't the case at all.

  • The drone is still relatively loud.

  • While it's one of DJI's quieter drones, there's no way this is sneaking up on anybody.

  • So we have the Mavic 2 side-by-side with the original Mavic.

  • We can see some differences right off the bat.

  • We have the side sensors on the side.

  • And then rear sensors on the back, which the original Mavic does not have.

  • The original Mavic is only equipped with sensors in the front on both sides.

  • One thing I do want to point out is the gimbal construction of the 2 drones.

  • So we can see this one right here, there's no extra like ribbon cables dangling around

  • anywhere.

  • But with this drone, every time that I would clamp in the drone for transportation with

  • this little plastic piece, I was always worried about catching that little ribbon cable right

  • there on the side.

  • It seems like a much more fragile design on the original Mavic, where on the Mavic 2,

  • they fixed it.

  • I want to point out the LED lights as well.

  • It's kind of hard to see them in the sun, but this guy right here is lit up red, whereas

  • on the Mavic 2, right here it's a different type of LED light, but it's much brighter.

  • The Mavic 2 remote remains pretty unchanged compared to the Mavic 1.

  • We have the same directional joy sticks and antennas.

  • But over here on the right hand side is a switch where we can switch between tripod

  • mode, which keeps the drone stable during time lapses.

  • Then we have our positioning mode for normal flight.

  • And then sport mode, which turns off some of the safety features and allows the drone

  • to go super fast.

  • The top of the controller has the same gimbal adjustment circle, except for this time with

  • the Mavic 2 it can adjust all the way up, allowing the camera to look at the sky while

  • you're flying.

  • And then the knob on the right is specific to the zoom drone, allowing it to zoom in

  • and zoom out on different objects, which is pretty cool, and one of my favorite features

  • of this particular drone.

  • And there you have it.

  • We got the full experience of exploring a poisonous landscape with the safety of a zoom

  • drone.

  • I'm a pretty big fan.

  • With all the safety features on the sides, back and front, it definitely makes it safer

  • to fly, which is important because these things are an investment.

  • I'll leave the current pricing in a link down in the video description.

  • And if you have any questions, leave them down in the comments.

  • Thanks a ton for watching and I'll see you around.
