DJI Mini 5 Pro Drone Overview

Capture low-light content with greater gimbal flexibility when you fly the Mini 5 Pro Drone with RC2 Fly More Combo Plus from DJI. The new edition of the Mini Pro gives you a bigger 1″ 50MP CMOS sensor for improved image quality in bright to low-light conditions. To shoot nighttime images and videos safely, the Mini 5 Pro has an upgraded nightscape omnidirectional obstacle avoidance system that can operate in just 1 lux of illumination. When capturing 4K60 HDR video, vertical video clips, or 4K120 slow-motion shots, the Mini 5 Pro’s updated gimbal can now handle more challenging angles with 225° of rotation. These improvements join an upgrade to ActiveTrack 360 and a boost in battery life, while still retaining Mini Pro’s palm-sized and foldable design.

Difficult Shots Made Easy

Keeping the best from the last generation, the Mini 5 Pro’s gimbal can rotate to shoot true vertical images and videos that you can immediately share to social media. This is now joined by a 225° wide-angle roll rotation that can be operated manually or work alongside intelligent flight modes, such as QuickShots, giving you the ability to capture shots at difficult angles.

Improved Camera System

Now with a larger 1″ 50MP CMOS, the Mini 5 Pro’s one-lux low-light content enjoys improved detail. Capture video at 4K60 HDR resolution with 14 stops of dynamic range using intelligent processing to optimize results. When you need subjects to stand out, use the 48mm Med-Tele mode’s portrait optimization algorithm and 2x zoom. Other features include a 55° upward tilt to help with shooting tall structures, the ability to slow down the action in 4K120 resolution, 10-bit video with 12,800 ISO, and D-Log M and HLG color modes.

Nightscape Obstacle Avoidance

While shooting in low-light environments, the new nightscape obstacle avoidance system can use the front-facing LiDAR sensor and omnidirectional sensors to auto-detect and avoid objects with just one lux of brightness. The full suite of object detection sensors includes the forward-facing LiDAR, fisheye lenses for front, rear, left, right, and upward detection, bottom-facing binocular lenses, and a 3D infrared sensor.

Safer Trips Home

Supporting L1 and L5 dual-band GNSS, the Mini 5 Pro can connect to more satellites to achieve stable and precise positioning when flying and returning home. If the signal is lost and the Mini 5 Pro has sufficient light, the drone can use its non-GNSS RTH mode to use real-time vision positioning and map construction to memorize flight routes for a safe return. Thanks to nighttime imaging performance, nighttime RTH mode can use the forward LiDAR to detect objects for uneventful low-light flights home.

Intelligent Tracking and Flight Modes

Pilots can continue to create pro-level sequences with the Mini 5 Pro and DJI’s assortment of tracking and automatic flight modes.

FocusTrack: This system upgrades ActiveTrack to ActiveTrack 360, keeps Spotlight and Point of Interest, and adds automatic Standard and Cycling modes. The Mini 5 Pro can use Standard to follow a path in real time and maintain a steady altitude and distance. If it detects the subject cycling, it can enter Cycling mode for better reaction to quick turns and speed changes.
MasterShots: Automatically fly professional maneuvers for cinematic results with portrait, close-ups, and long-distance modes.
Free Panorama: Create seamless panorama shots by stitching multiple images of a manually-selected subject or landscape.
QuickShot: Have the drone automatically fly creative patterns while focusing on a subject with Dronie, Helix, Rocket, Circle, Boomerang, and Asteroid.

Remote QuickTransfer

Using the DJI Fly app and a Bluetooth device, you can remotely wake the Mini 5 Pro for fast data transfer. Connect to it over Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) for transfer speeds up to 100 MB/s.

Fly More Combo Plus with RC2

This version of the DJI Mini 5 Pro includes the Fly More Combo Plus bundle of accessories. Compared to the standard version, the bundle’s significant upgrades are to the controller and flight batteries. The RC-N3 remote is swapped with the RC2, giving you a built-in multitouch display. The flight batteries are the “Plus” versions, which change the flight time from up to 36 minutes to up to 52 minutes. You also get the normal Fly More items, such as filters, a travel bag, and more. It’s a group of essential tools that make flights more productive right out of the box. Compared to the standard version of the Mini 5 Pro, here’s a full list of changed and additional items:

RC2 remote controller
Two extra “Plus” flight batteries
Two extra pairs of propellers
DJI two-way charging hub
Shoulder bag
ND8, ND32, and ND128 Filters

Additional Details

42GB of onboard storage
Up to 52 minutes of flight time
OcuSync 4+ for 10-bit video transmission at up to 12.4 miles
Upgraded anti-interference technology for more stable live feeds
Quickly fly at altitudes up to 3.7 miles with an increased ascent speed of up to 22.3 mph
