Reliability: The most important requirement for any memory card.This way if you do crash or lose your drone you’ll only lose the footage from that flight and not all the footage before it! Shooting in 4k will take a large chunk of a 32gb card on a 20 minutes flight. This means we need to switch out the cards regularly, but this minor inconvenience is better than potentially losing a lot of footage. For this reason, we have multiple micro SD cards. Also, if you crash or lose your drone you may lose the original footage. Yes, you can buy 128GB cards but you will be tempted to forget to backup regularly. Size: Don’t be tempted to get the biggest card possible.

Multiple GB of footage can be very slow to copy from slower cards! So any card that meets/exceeds this speed will work well. However, do pay attention to the read speeds too as faster cards have the benefit of faster backups.

Transfer speed (read and write): The Mavic 2 records 4k and writes to the micro SD card at up to 100 Mbps (or 12.5 MB/s). Due to this, you’ll need to get a card that is above this speed.
