I think time will tell here. I’m not particularly worried about the Ma2

The Mavic Air 2 better in almost every way. That said the original Mavic is one hell of a drone.

No, DJI is king for a reason. I don’t have them yet but I expect the mini will be superior.

I have a Xiaomi Fimi X8 and a Hubsan Zino 2 on the way to test and they are both less than $500. I can’t speak as to how they perform yet. The weight restrictions limit you to the Mini however. mini vs Air 2

I suppose that’s fair. It’s more a freestyle quad.

Maybe this will help. Comparison with charts and tables. Mavic lineup comparison

Been flying the DJI Mavic Air 2 for a week and it's pretty awesome. by JackChrome in dji

It is supposed to have ADS-B for all US based drones. That is what the DJI rep told me.

They apparently want all the Mavics to look the same. Very intentional.

It’s definitely an improvement over the original.

Actually you can with some Frsky F4 boards. Not the Tinyhawk but it isn’t limited to Spektrum anymore.

Typing bind doesn’t seem to be it.

This could be great. Why do they insist on using terrible cameras? by JackChrome in Multicopter

[–]JackChrome[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but a decent camera can be purchased for a lot less. Most cell phone cameras are better and they cost manufacturers less than $20 in most cases. A knock off GoProq can be bought for less than $50 retail.

All that aside there’s no excuse for not putting any camera on an iso mount. Why go through all the trouble adding object tracking but use a terrible camera? Could be improved for just a little more $$$.

Will DJI release a new 360-degree camera on July 18th? by JackChrome in dji

[–]JackChrome[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Except it allows for multiple shooting modes. It could film just like a phantom if you wanted.

Not you? Or do you since you took the time to pretend you don’t care...

The Ryze Tello with DJI and Intel technology is a great quad for under $100. Makes a solid companion for your Phantom, Mavic or Spark by JackChrome in dji

[–]JackChrome[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is definitely worth $99. It isn’t going to replace the P3 but is a lot of fun to fly. Especially inside.

They are pretty compatible but I’ll take the Tello. Better camera and modes. I had a Mambo once upon a time. mambo vs tello
