DJI Mavic 4 Pro reaches peak performance on first flight review

On May 17th, after barely more than two hours of sleep, I embarked on my journey at 3:30 AM toward the base of King Peak. As dawn broke at an altitude of 5,700 meters, Pumari Chhish revealed itself in all its splendor—its majestic crown and dragon-scale-like glaciers gleaming as if to welcome me. Unlike its appearance on clear days, King Peak was shrouded in layers of clouds, lending it an ethereal, almost mystical quality.

The path leading up to 5,500 meters was far from forgiving. Once off the dirt road, the terrain became treacherous, littered with massive boulders that tested every step. The final destination allowed for a trek to a ridge line at approximately 5,600 meters—a breathtaking vantage point where the world below seemed impossibly small.

Equipped with the DJI Mavic 4 Pro, I pushed the boundaries of exploration. Its robust video transmission signal enabled it to soar over 6,000 meters high and venture six kilometers away, capturing stunning footage of ice caves and crevasses etched into the mountain’s icy expanse. From this angle, the backside of King Peak unfolded in rare detail, a view seldom witnessed by human eyes.

  6. Wow, those pre-dawn shots at 5,700 meters sound absolutely breathtaking! The way you described Pumari Chhish’s glaciers glowing like dragon scales really makes me want to see the raw footage. How did the Mavic 4 Pro handle the thin air and cold temperatures up there?

    1. Thanks for your kind words! The Mavic 4 Pro performed impressively in those extreme conditions—its upgraded propulsion system maintained stable flight even at high altitude, and the battery insulation handled the cold better than previous models. Personally, I was amazed by how crisp the footage remained despite the challenges. We’ll try to share some raw clips in a follow-up post!

  7. Wow, flying the Mavic 4 Pro at 5,700 meters must’ve been breathtaking! Those glacier details sound incredible – makes me want to upgrade from my old drone. How did the battery hold up in those cold mountain conditions?

    1. Thanks for your comment! The battery performed surprisingly well—we saw about a 15% faster drain than usual due to the cold, but the Mavic 4 Pro’s improved insulation helped. Honestly, those glacier shots were worth every bit of battery life! If you’re considering an upgrade, the cold-weather performance is a solid improvement over older models.

  8. Wow, those dawn shots at 5,700 meters sound absolutely breathtaking! The Mavic 4 Pro seems to handle extreme altitudes like a champ – makes me want to take mine on an adventure too. That description of King Peak’s “dragon-scale glaciers” really paints a vivid picture!

    1. Thanks for your enthusiastic comment! The Mavic 4 Pro truly shines in high-altitude conditions, and those dawn shots were indeed magical. I’d love to see what adventures you capture with yours – those dragon-scale glaciers are just begging to be photographed from new angles! Happy flying!
