How much can the Mavic Pro Lift

[@joshsun85]

ANOTHER TEST WOULD BE TO PUT 3 POUNDS IN THE BOTTLE...THEN LEAVE IT ON THE SCALE. THROTTLE UP AND SEE WHAT WEIGHT REMAINS ON THE SCALE. THE DIFFERENCE IS YOUR MAX LIFT WEIGHT!

[@WyvernApalis]

Joshua Rodriguez the wind from the props will push on the scale though

[@joshsun85]

Very true. Didn't think of that. The work around is to have the string at a length like 10 feet so it wot effect it. Also this brings up a good point... wouldn't the wind with the current set up effect the load as well?

[@andgastvideo]

Joshua Rodriguez it lifts exactly 1kg no more than that

[@brianandtarryn]

Another option would be to use a fish scale.

[@loveflying2]

Joshua Rodriguez good thinking

[@dollarsigntexas]

Any time I think about doing something stupid with my Mavic, I think: i should check Chris's KZbin channel and voilá

[@Smoovebert]

EXACTLY

[@adroneslife8453]

Adam West it's a good test I think, what if you were retrieving a downed drone off a roof.

[@thelongranger55]

I was waiting for the jug to explode from a prop hit and soak his magic, but nice test , now I know I can deliver zips & packs a couple miles out haha

[@NJ_GB]

As always mate, thanks for testing and removing any temptation for me to do so! :)

[@miked5728]

To heck with the Mavic... Your shed is about to tip over!!! Catch it!! :)

[@youngwoody]

😭😭😭

[@ImaginetMedia]

Exactly the info I was searching for. Thanks for sharing your test results.

[@gonagain]

This would also depend on how high you are above sea level and also air temperature.

[@terrycheung2408]

Gonagain hi. I’m not much of a physics person but do drones fly better in colder temperatures or hotter?

[@XRFOREVER]

Bob Brown made me laugh !

[@K8URChannel]

Good test. My Mavic can only safely lift about 500kg to 100ft or so.

[@Smexy]

why do people get so damn butthurt over what someone else does with their stuff?

[@kenalverson9755]

Why does he do this? So we don't have to. Thanks buddy. Tell Ed hi from me. Ken.

[@MikeSantis]

To get more likes and more subscribers. Simple as that :-) He also seems to have the money to buy another Mavic if he destroys that one. Like when he was trying to land it on a moving truck or when he was doing the shutting off test. Mostly entertainment :-)

[@kenalverson9755]

Mike Santis : good call Mike. It is entertaining and informative at the same time. You're not pushing your Mavic this hard?

[@MikeSantis]

Why should I??? What's the point??? I use my Mavic as a part of my photo business Not as a toy. And I will have a hard time to replace it if something happens to it. But Chris don't seem to have this problem. So one more reason he is probably doing this kind of stuff.

[@kenalverson9755]

Mike Santis : Mine is for my hobby but it's still expensive and I don't want to have to replace it just to try something crazy. Take care Mike!

[@MikeSantis]

Exactly my point.

[@ArruVision]

A nice piece of info! Props for including metric measurements ☺️

[@dos4gwexe]

The Mavic's lift performance will change depending on your density altitude too. You might be able to lift a little more on a cold, dry day at sea level (assuming you're not already at sea level)

[@ChadLittlefield]

Awesome! Two ideas. Use a fish scale upside down as that will measure the exact pull. Secondly, I'd LOVE to see how it does if you loop the string through the feet and try to lift from "behind" the center of gravity. Awesome stuff though man.

[@Vasquez19781]

Nice vid!! Phew, could only imagine what your Mavic would need to have done to be in good refurbished condition LOL. Just got mine and am extremely PROTECTIVE over it and can’t even imagine doing the things you do to yours to mine but it helps with questions I had/have not to mention know what NOT to do. Haven’t even flown it yet until I watch more vids so I don’t have a heart attack and lose/damage mine. Subscribed 😌

[@robsimpson2694]

Life's short

[@micahvislisel5674]

Did you have it in Sport mode? I know it sport mode you can climb in altitude a few m/s faster.

[@warren52nz]

I doubt Sport mode would make a difference. The setting would be for vertical *_speed_* not lift. Could try it though...

[@Luc-1991]

corey bkguy I think it will do the opposite. I'm not an expert on this matter, but I think faster gears mean more speed and less power. If you look at a car, you can get a higher speed in second gear than in first gear, but the first gear will pull a higher total weight. I don't know if the gears in a drone will work in the same way tho, but I would definitely be interested to see an experiment on this subject.

[@cpac97]

@@Luc-1991 doesn't have gears. its magnetic spun motors. im guessing its a different programing on when the electrical current is sent

[@robsimpson2694]

Yes I'm sure it would make a difference

[@donjohnson2639]

You can look up the motors thrust values in relation to the size/pitch prop used and calculate almost the exact lift capacity or im sure DJI already states this information somewhere?

[@smarzyciel]

Would he have 221K views for that?

[@droneosaurusx9332]

Thanks Chris, knowledge is power!!

[@andrewfulin4351]

Thank you, I just got the "item drop kit" and I really wanted to know what the mavic pro could do.

I gotta be honest, you are the most serious funniest youtuber I have seen. Hahahah

[@domfarrell9073]

Looks like you've been trying to lift the back shed in the corner too! Any recommendations - I need to carry and drop a cricket ball.

[@HEVTech1]

2lbs 3 oz. I saw another video test this and that's how much his could lift

cool experiment Chris... were you not worried that you might burn out the motors or something? mavic was sure working it's nuts off there

This dude kinda looks like the "rapper" Krispy Kreme lol. This video had me laughing the whole way through. When the props hit the string and you jumped out of the way, that was hilarious.

[@drfix2020]

Great test! Would you do a wind text next? I flew in 10-15 MPH winds! No problems!

[@muzikmon2267]

Was that as high as it can go or did you just stop it from going up higher

Did you use the same battery the whole time?

[@N_Wheeler]

The error message Overcurrent Discharge was interesting.

[@AJ-ku7nm]

weight X on scales. Attach Mavic. go to full throttle and look at weight on scales again. Minus 2nd weight from the first and that should give you its maximum lift in one try? Ps think sports mode would make a difference

[@johnnelson6021]

You should have used a newton meter for an exact result

[@spaceboy3101]

I've been thinking about getting one for light lifting around the house, like fetching my shoes from another room, or other light things when I don't want to get out of my chair, but even though this could apparently carry my shoes, it's SO loud that, living in apt. building, I think it might bother the neighbors. Sounds about as loud as a vacuum, so I guess I could run it for quick bursts during the day, which is all I'd need, but still.....so loud. I don't know much about these things, but I'm assuming there is a motor for each fan, and it would probably be quieter to have one motor and a belt drive to run all the fans. That might reduce the dB some. I wonder if anyone makes drones like that?

[@ThePhk5]

if you go to sport mode it will deliver a little more horse power ya

[@djisenord7455]

Cool !

[@DroneMesh]

Change your motors to F80 or F60 and you will be flying without a problem one motor can lift your quad and the milk bottle.

[@pjhudson5344]

need lil drone fuselage- backpacks, or belly packs and solid affordable release mechanisms for deploying life saving payloads like first aid kits - water bottles, micro flotation device - life guards need to be able to use drones. I would think the pay for a life guard would go up with the induction of these wonderful tools into the world of first response.

[@hoomilouuu]

You can’t lift the corner of your shed and level it with mavic pro

[@IMRROcom]

[@armandocastro1129]

Why use elastic instead of a firm line? The elastic creates more resistance and pulls the drone towards the milk jug.

[@TimothyMoore]

Need to know how much can be flown over the border 😂

[@IslandDesperados]

Can you do a new video but the same thing Carying the water in side the milk jug but this time you have to fly the drone wile carying the milk jug with water inside

[@Dayvieboy]

Could have taken off and added water while in the air until it started to lose altitude :-)

[@Carlit0Tit0]

But then he wouldn't know how much it weighs. Unless he had another jug nearby and weighed it to the same amount of water he puts in the other one.

[@davidrickert4925]

Fill the jug until it loses altitude, then land the drone and weigh the jug

You're going to fry your ESC's doing that. Unfortunately, from the Phantom 3 to all latest DJI drones, the ESC are no longer modular, if you manage to fry one, you are going to replace the whole board.
