Thanks to the countless Emails and support, we are announcing the release of the Wet Suits for the Original Mavic Pro:
We kept to the same minimal guidelines and tests as we did with the Mavic 2 Zoom and the Mavic 2 Pro.
It should be noted that we never intended to make the Wet Suits for any of the Mavic drones as we did not see a need until we realized how vulnerable the battery compartments were to taking in water, snow, and moisture.
The Mavic Pro was no exception. After running the drone under the faucet for just 15 seconds, the battery filled with water and the lights on the battery were flashing and the battery was compromised .
After the Mavic Wet Suit was applied, the Mavic Passed the Faucet test with flying colors , no water in the battery and no flashing lights.
NO - we have not had a chance to test the Original Mavic Pro in a real world storm as we are in winter but we our expected to have over 130 days of rain this year, so plenty of videos to come.
We have however tested the Zoom and the Pro geared up with the same Wet Suit system and the results were a 26 minute flight in the pouring rain without the drone or the battery being compromised and able to fly the next day.
The Wet Suit Provides a Non Slip Grip when hand Catching the Drone and keep the Props on just a bit tighter as they are very prone to falling off when hitting leaves and such.
The Mavic Pro Wet Suits come in the same colors and exact styling as the Mavic 2.
let us know your a forum member and we will send you and extra battery cover.
Attention if you need International shipping: We do charge an additional fee , however we make it up to you by providing 3 extra Battery Covers and 1 extra color change.
We will post pictures and videos of the Mavic Pro as we go.
This video was sent to me last night from a client flying the Mavic 2 and highlights how rain just happens and how the drone was able to fly the next day.
If you interested in the Mavic Pro and you cannot get on the Web Site please email us and will send you some Info: [email protected]
