DJI Mini 5 Pro Fly More Combo Plus (DJI RC2) Summary

DJI RC 2 CONTROLLER

The DJI RC 2 is included with the Mini 5 Pro Fly More Combo, giving you a bright 5.5-inch Full HD display built directly into the controller. This means you don’t have to use your phone to fly, and the screen remains visible even in outdoor conditions, making setup faster and flights more convenient. The controller is lightweight and comfortable to hold, but inside it carries a new processor with improved CPU and GPU performance. The system feels quicker and smoother to operate, with apps and menus responding instantly so you can focus more on flying.

Video transmission has also been upgraded. DJI RC 2 works with the latest O4 system, supporting 2.4GHz, 5.1GHz and 5.8GHz frequency bands for better resistance to interference. When paired with the Mini 5 Pro, this allows for crystal-clear video transmission with low latency at ranges up to 20 km in ideal conditions.

The controller also features a 2T4R antenna system, with two built-in and two external antennas. This setup doubles the number of transmitters and receivers compared to the earlier RC, boosting signal strength and reliability. The result is a smoother connection, improved control and added confidence in every flight.

Go Big With Mini

The DJI Mini 5 Pro keeps its ultra-light, palm-sized foldable design that fits in a jacket pocket or backpack, weighing in at around 249.9 g ± 4 g. The drone supplied in this Fly More Combo Plus is C1-certified. Before flying, always check current local drone regulations and any registration or competency requirements which may apply. The aircraft features 42GB of internal storage, so you can save footage directly without needing to swap cards mid-flight.

Upgraded 1-Inch CMOS Sensor

A 50MP 1-inch CMOS sensor with f/1.8 aperture is the key update for this model, which provides far richer detail and cleaner low-light results compared to the Mini 4 Pro. It records up to 4K/60 HDR video with 14 stops of dynamic range in Auto mode (not available for slow-motion or Med-Tele shots). DJI’s new image-processing platform and algorithms preserve highlight and shadow details in tricky conditions such as sunsets and nightscapes.

A new 48mm Med-Tele option provides 2x zoom with higher resolution than digital zooms, which were found in older Mini drones, while portrait optimisation brightens skin tones in Normal colour mode (not supported in HLG or D-Log M).

Cinematic Results Despite being a Mini Drone

The camera records in a variety of formats to suit any project, including:

• 4K/60 HDR
• 4K/120 slow motion
• 1080p/240 slow motion
• 50MP stills

Video is encoded in H.265, with maximum ISO up to 12,800, while D-Log M and HLG modes are capped at ISO 3200, which is ideal for brighter urban night scenes.

Upgraded Gimbal And Vertical Shooting

The upgraded gimbal rotates through 225° and supports true vertical shooting for vertical social channels. You can move it manually or use QuickShot Rotate, Timelapse, Spotlight and Waypoint Flight. Vertical video is recorded natively, with no cropping required, so you can shoot skyscrapers, waterfalls or really tall subjects with footage that is ready for social media.

Improved Flight And Obstacle Sensing

Mini 5 Pro is safer than ever with a forward-facing LiDAR alongside front and rear fisheye cameras, plus sensors on the bottom and sides. Together these provide omnidirectional obstacle sensing for day and night flights. Nightscape sensing requires conditions above 1 lux with textured, diffusely reflective surfaces above 20% reflectivity (such as trees, walls or people). Reflective surfaces like water or snow may cause errors, and the vision system won’t work in dim environments or poor weather. Avoid strong winds above 12 m/s, rain, snow, lightning or fog, and do not attempt flights above 6000 m, in extreme temperatures below –10 °C or above 40 °C, or from moving objects.

The system also adds smarter RTH functions for DJI Mini 5 Pro. It can memorise flight paths in good lighting when light exceeds 10 lux and surfaces are textured with at least 20% reflectivity. Balcony take-off requires at least a 2 x 2 m area under 30 m high for safe return. In night flights, LiDAR helps detect obstacles like tall buildings and climbs to avoid them. Forward sensing is available only in Normal or Cine modes and during RTH.

Dual-band GNSS (L1 + L5) also improves stability and positioning in crowded environments, though magnetic and radio interference from routers, towers or high-voltage lines may still affect performance.

Upgraded ActiveTrack 360°

Tracking has been made more stable and customisable. The drone now recognises sports such as cycling and switches automatically between Cycling or Standard modes. Cycling mode reacts quickly to turns and accelerations, while Standard mode keeps steady altitude and distance. It tracks at up to 15 m/s in open environments, and can switch to rear tracking in complex areas to keep subjects framed. DJI recommends using ActiveTrack 360° in open areas and to take care in complex environments where Auto mode may not behave as expected.

Intelligent Modes

DJI has some of the most effective modes for tuning content in the market. These include MasterShots, which provides movement templates for portraits, close-ups and long-distance scenes. QuickShots include Rotate, Dronie, Circle, Helix, Rocket, Boomerang and Asteroid. There’s also Free Panorama, which stitches together multiple images for stunning high resolution pano shots.

Off-State QuickTransfer

Through the DJI Fly app you can wake the drone remotely over Bluetooth, which remains active for 12 hours after power-off. Using Wi-Fi 6, transfer speeds reach up to 100 MB/s, though actual results vary depending on interference and conditions. Downloads continue in the background even when you switch apps.

Stable Transmission And Extended Flight Time

This Fly More Combo Plus includes three DJI Mini 5 Pro Intelligent Flight Battery Plus batteries, extending maximum flight time to up to 52 minutes and maximum flight distance to up to 32km under DJI’s test conditions. Typical flight time is up to 33 minutes, depending on weather conditions, flight mode and payload.

Charging three batteries takes around 115 minutes at 25°C. Charging times may vary depending on ambient temperature and local power supply conditions.

DJI O4+ transmission provides up to 20km range in open conditions under FCC compliance, with improved anti-interference performance. The aircraft can fly at altitudes up to 4500m when using the Intelligent Flight Battery Plus.

NOTES:
