DJI has announced the Mavic Mini for the Malaysian market just one week after its global unveiling. Priced starting from RM1,599, the DJI Mavic Mini is a versatile drone that’s somewhere between the Spark and the Mavic Pro.
Weighing at just 249g, the DJI Mavic Mini is an ultra-light folding drone that’s designed to be portable, easy to fly, without losing any flight or video quality. Because of its weight that is less than 250g, it is exempted from regulations that apply to other, heavier drones.
To design a drone as lightweight, compact yet capable as Mavic Mini was one of the most challenging projects we’ve ever tackled at DJI. Distilling top-of-the-line features into a palm-sized drone is the culmination of years of work, and we are excited to bring a new class of drones to the DJI lineup. Mavic Mini’s extended flight time, ultra-light weight and high-quality camera makes it the everyday flycam. Most importantly, it’s easy to fly and comes with an intuitive app, making it the perfect drone for first-time pilots and those thinking about their first drone.
