Hi,

Which DJI drones are waterproof?

As i know is just: AGRAS MG-1.

That's it?

None are. It’s not recommended to fly in rain. Mavic tolerates rain better because it doesn’t have the air vents the phantom series does. But again not water proof and not recommended to fly in rain or snow.

I think the Matrice 200 drones are waterproof too

That is correct.
Matrice 200 and Agras 1 / 1S are both waterproof.

The Matrice 200 isn't waterproof, it's water resistant. Two different meanings. Water resistant means it can survive light raining and such but it's not waterproof in the sense that it will survive a landing in a lake.

this is water proof, use your drone as a submarine see 1 min 23 sec

Mavic is definitely not waterproof.... those brushless motors would probably short out once wet.

The Matrice 200 series and Agras are designed to be water resistant - meaning it's effectively splash proof so good to brush of landing it quickly in the middle of an unexpected rain shower without any concerns. If it were waterproof you could land it in the sea, which you can't of course. If you're Mavic is caught in a rain storm you will probably lose it! If that happens its best to fly back as fast as possible to your position, land it immediately and head home then leave it over night to dry out at room temperature on a table. If you land it in the sea and manage to retrieve it you need to send it back to DJI as salt water will corrode the drone over time, even if it appears fixed once dried out.

I remember seeing a YouTube a while ago where some guy landed his Mavic in the ocean, dried it out good, took it apart and cleaned it with an electronics solvent. Not recommended unless you're experience in such things.

There are exceptions LOL but for the average user I wouldn't recommend taking the drone apart unless you know exactly what you're doing as tampering with it will void the warranty.

100% correct! I would imaging dunking it in the water would void the warranty too.

Not sure on that as water damage is covered by care refresh but for the standard warranty the diagnostics would have to clearly show that the drone went into the drink due entirely to a manufacturer defect which is subjective when flying over water. In either case you must physically return the drone so if lost in the water then game over unless you buy another one.

Then there is (was) the .

Mavic has air vents and an internal fan for cooling the electronics inside the main frame. The vents are behind the gimbal

I believe Woe was comparing the vents to the Phantom 3 series - which have about 100 vent holes all over the chassis. The Mavic is practically sealed by comparison.

Is there anything I can help you with? Most of our drones are not waterproof. As far as I know, M210 has an IP43 rating.

Brushless motors are waterproof. I used to rinse mine off in the sink on my racing drones after a day of dirt crashes. The wiring is coated and sealed. You can run them under water if you wanted to. See the video above.

Well, I won't be "washing them under a tap" LOL - put it that way!

Are you? Doesn't come across that way!

Anyone had any first hand experience with moisture from clouds?

Beeworld Posted at 2018-1-11 02:03

Yeah - just leave the drone to dry naturally at room temperature upon your return and try to avoid clouds where you can. It's sea water that mainly kills drones.

I wouldn't, perhaps you can explain why anyone should given your information in post number 17.

Do a little research on brushless motors.

The brushless motors on the mavic would not be. I think is what you mean ;-)

No, read over the previous posts - he clearly states that it is perfectly acceptable to rinse your brushless motors on your Mavic under a tap to clean them. He’s entertaining, if nothing else!

Lets be crystal clear - this is not a generic forum for DIY model aircraft - it's for DJI drones and specifically this section is for the Mavic Pro. Now, the drone is NOT waterproof in direct answer to the OP and must never be exposed to moisture or submerged in water - that is an absolute fact and written in every DJI manual - even DJI Thor has stated that on this thread.
Whilst individual components may be removed from the drone (which will void the warranty) and are resistant to water that is clearly not the point. With the motors attached to the drone exposing them to water will cause severe damage to the electronic speed controllers and even cause the bearings in the motors to rust.
When you state "I use to rinse mine under a tap" it implies that this is acceptable with the Mavic motors when it is clearly not. If people on here believed you and started cleaning their drones under a running tap they will be very disappointed with the result - so yes, it is best that you give up and stop your weekly replies which add more harm than value to the thread.

There are several people who have had the mavic go into the water and come out working. So it is somewhat waterproof. The motors are 100% waterproof. Please educate yourself
Side note, Do not tell me when and where I can post.
Have fun flying.

No such thing as 'somewhat waterproof' - you have waterproof or water resistant. The Mavic is slightly resistant to water - that is NOT waterproof.
Side note - I really do not care what or where you write as long as it is correct and does not mislead others into potentially destroying their property...
