Our Take<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s scary in an exciting sort of way to see how ruthlessly DJI is outpacing its competitors. Brands like GoPro, 3DRobotics, and Autel<\/strong> have been left struggling to catch up to the Chinese drone maker, often touted as the Apple of Drones.<\/p>\n

The recently released Matrice 200 is a perfect example of DJI expansion into new and diverse industries. While many drone makers are focused on low-cost hobbyist drones<\/strong>, DJI has taken over the market with its premium and exquisitely designed drones made for every kind of user.<\/p>\n

Whether you are looking for a consumer drone<\/strong><\/a>, a professional photography drone<\/strong><\/a> or a data acquisition UAV<\/strong><\/a>, DJI sells one that will probably meet your needs. Their ability to rapidly create products to fit different applications is one of the big reasons they will likely remain at the top for the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n

The DJI Matrice 200<\/strong> is designed from the ground up as an enterprise survey drone, and DJI has been aggressively marketing it as such. They have been trying to entice companies in many fields to give it a try. <\/p>\n

This drone is not<\/span> cheap – the Matrice 200 price is expected to be double that of the $4,999 Matrice 600 Pro –<\/strong> but it packs more features, more payload and more industrial application capabilities than any other DJI drone.<\/p>\n

For example, the Matrice 200 has three obstacle avoidance sensor systems<\/strong>, it can carry two cameras,<\/strong> it can carry an upward facing camera<\/strong>, and it is weather and magnetic resistant<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Simply put, this machine is an outdoor all-weather workhorse and a well-built one at that. It\u2019s designed mostly for enterprise clients as a one-in-all inspection tool. <\/p>\n

I wouldn\u2019t suggest this one for most photography or filming tasks, either, unless you need the big payload. Its features are designed specifically for industrial applications. For most photography\/video needs, I’d use an alternative like the DJI Phantom 4 Pro<\/a>  or DJI Inspire<\/a>. <\/p>\n

High Endurance<\/h2>\n

\"DJI<\/a><\/p>\n

Whatever your need, the Matrice 200 is up to the task. Both inside and out, the drone comes with a rugged and highly functional design<\/strong> that allows it to adapt to different kinds of environments. Here are the main design highlights:<\/strong><\/p>\n
