The Hardware

DJI Mini 5 Pro — professional capability, compact platform.

RigidAero operates the DJI Mini 5 Pro Fly More Combo Plus with DJI RC 2 controller. At 249 grams, the Mini 5 Pro falls below the FAA’s recreational weight threshold for many operations, while delivering professional-grade imaging capability:

  • Battery life: Up to 52 minutes per Battery Plus charge
  • Obstacle avoidance: Omnidirectional sensing for safe operation near structures
  • Transmission: OcuSync 4 — up to 20 km range, low-latency HD live feed
  • Stabilization: 3-axis gimbal for smooth footage in wind up to 38 kph (24 mph)
  • Coverage: Single battery covers approximately 1 acre (0.4 hectare) at survey altitude

All flights are conducted in compliance with FAA Part 107 regulations. Flight logs and airspace authorizations are maintained and available for documentation-sensitive clients.
