The folding Pro-class drones compared by camera, flight time and price, with the combo and spares we recommend for each job.
· 9 min read · Flight Operations Team
If you are shopping for a DJI Mavic in Australia, the range is wider than it looks. The folding Mavic aircraft are DJI's choice for people who need professional image quality in a drone they can carry in a bag, and there are now three distinct families: the flagship Mavic 4 Pro, the proven Mavic 3 Pro and the commercial Mavic 3 Enterprise. Buyers often search for a Mavic Pro drone or a DJI Mavic Pro 4, and the current Pro-class aircraft in our range are the Mavic 4 Pro and the Mavic 3 Pro. This guide compares them by camera, flight time and price in Australian dollars, explains the Fly More combos and lists the spares to add, so you can order the right kit first time.
The DJI Mavic range at a glance
All three families fold for travel, carry more than one camera and offer long flight times. They differ in what the cameras do, how long the aircraft stays up and who the aircraft is built for. This table shows the three base aircraft side by side.

|---|---|---|---|
| Main camera | 100 MP 4/3 CMOS Hasselblad | 20 MP 4/3 CMOS Hasselblad | 20 MP 4/3 CMOS, mechanical shutter |

| Price (AUD) | From $3,099 | From $2,789 | From $6,049 |
DJI Mavic 4 Pro: the flagship
The DJI Mavic 4 Pro with the DJI RC 2 is DJI's flagship triple-camera drone, priced at $3,099. It is built around a 100 MP Hasselblad main camera with a 4/3 sensor, plus a 48 MP 70 mm medium tele and a 50 MP 168 mm tele, and it mounts them on a 360-degree rotating Infinity Gimbal. Omnidirectional obstacle sensing is joined by front-facing LiDAR for low-light work, flight time reaches 51 minutes and the transmission range is up to 30 km. It is often searched for as the DJI Mavic Pro 4. Choose it if you are a professional creator, filmmaker or real estate and tourism shooter who needs cinema-grade imaging from a folding drone and wants the longest flight time in the range.
DJI Mavic 3 Pro: the proven triple-camera workhorse
The DJI Mavic 3 Pro at $2,789 is the aircraft to buy if the Mavic 4 Pro is more than you need or more than you want to spend. It carries a Hasselblad 4/3 main camera with 20 MP, a 48 MP medium tele at 70 mm equivalent and a 12 MP tele at 166 mm equivalent, so you get three focal lengths without changing payloads. It records 5.1K video up to 50 fps and 4K up to 120 fps, flies for up to 43 minutes, weighs 958 g and has omnidirectional obstacle sensing. For film-makers, property photographers and commercial shooters it remains a very capable tool, and it costs $310 less than the Mavic 4 Pro.
DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise: the mapping and inspection model
The DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise at $6,049 is a different kind of drone. It is built for mapping, surveying and inspection, and it pairs a 4/3 CMOS wide camera with a mechanical shutter and a 56x hybrid zoom camera. The mechanical shutter gives distortion-free images for mapping, flight time reaches 45 minutes, it weighs 915 g and it supports an optional RTK module. Small survey firms, councils and inspection contractors choose it for fast set-up and strong mapping accuracy. If you want protection included, the Mavic 3E Worry-Free Plus Combo at $8,279 adds DJI Care Enterprise Plus, and the DJI Mavic 3 Thermal at $8,249 adds a 640×512 thermal camera for roof, solar, fire and rescue work. Our enterprise drones guide covers the commercial options in more depth.
DJI Mavic Fly More combos explained
If you search for a DJI Mavic Fly More kit, you are looking for the bundle that adds extra batteries, a charging hub and a bag to the aircraft. For a professional shoot that is the practical way to buy, because a single battery rarely covers a full day. These are the combos we stock for the Pro-class aircraft.
| Combo | Controller | What is included | Price (AUD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mavic 4 Pro Fly More Combo | DJI RC 2 | Extra batteries, charging hub, shoulder bag | $4,039 |
| Mavic 3 Pro Fly More Combo (DJI RC) | DJI RC with built-in screen | Three batteries, charging hub, shoulder bag | $3,779 |
| Mavic 3 Pro Fly More Combo (DJI RC Pro) | DJI RC Pro, high-bright screen | Three batteries, charging hub, shoulder bag | $4,799 |
| Mavic 3 Pro Cine Premium Combo | DJI RC Pro | Fly More kit, fast internal storage, Apple ProRes recording | $6,239 |
The Mavic 4 Pro Fly More Combo makes the 51-minute flagship practical for full-day commercial and film work. For the Mavic 3 Pro, the choice between the DJI RC and the DJI RC Pro comes down to screen brightness: the RC Pro has the clearest screen in direct sun, which matters on outdoor shoots. The Cine Premium Combo adds fast internal storage and Apple ProRes recording for post-production workflows, so it suits film-makers and agencies rather than casual shooters.
Which DJI Mavic should you buy?
- You want the best image quality and longest flight time: the Mavic 4 Pro, or the Fly More Combo for full days.
- You want three cameras at a lower price: the Mavic 3 Pro.
- You shoot in strong sun and need a bright screen: the Mavic 3 Pro Fly More Combo with the DJI RC Pro.
- You record cinema footage: the Mavic 3 Pro Cine Premium Combo.
- You map, survey or inspect: the Mavic 3 Enterprise, with the thermal Mavic 3T if you need heat imaging.
Spares to buy with your DJI Mavic
Order the spares with the aircraft and your first big job will not be limited by one battery. For the Mavic 4 Pro, the Intelligent Flight Battery is $279, the Parallel Charging Hub is $159 and a spare set of propellers is $29. For the Mavic 3 series, the Intelligent Flight Battery is a 5,000 mAh, 77 Wh pack at $219, and the 100 W charging hub charges several together. You can also add low-noise propellers, an ND filter set for video, a wide-angle lens or a storage cover. Our battery, charger and propeller guide explains how to look after them.
Choosing the right controller
Controllers change how the drone feels to fly. The DJI RC 2 is the screen controller supplied with the Mavic 4 Pro. The DJI RC and the DJI RC Pro both have built-in screens, and the RC Pro adds a high-bright display for outdoor work. If you are unsure which suits you, our guide to DJI controllers compares the RC-N3, RC 2 and RC Pro, and the DJI RC Pro Remote Controller is listed on its own if you already own an aircraft.
