Just filming without flying

[Seaken]

Thinking of using my Mavic as a hand held camera on a hike . Does anyone know how long a battery will last while not flying just filming ?

I don’t know exactly but it’s a lot longer than during flight since the motors are not running! It’s mentioned somewhere on this forum I just don’t remember where. You can buy a handle to carry the mavic for just this reason, I think Peter McKinnon on YouTube has a video about it? I could be wrong he has done a lot with Photography and Some Drone work.

About 2 hours or so.

Thank-you
2 hours will do good . I have a couple of other batteries that I plan to use to explore the area I’m hiking into .
