The Pro model has a Hasselblad branded camera with a 1" sensor and a variable aperture, but no zoom. Both models features 360 Obstacle avoidance in some flight modes, 31 minute flight time, low-noise props, 44 mph in sport mode, and Occusync 2.0 Wifi for sending HD video to the transmitter from up to 5 miles away.
