I'm 95% sure I want to buy the Mavic, been flying P3P's for awhile now,
Two Questions

1. Does the Mavic plug into your smart phone as the P3's do, or is it connected by generating a signal via WiFi from the drone/controller itself that you connect through the WiFi setting on the phone?

2. Is it really much quieter than the Phanotms?

Thanks

Yes it's a lot quieter, and yes you can plug straight in phone/iPad, you can also use wifi at short distance.

Yes to all of your questions.

At 50 feet it is hard to hear the Mavic. The Phantom is louder by far.

Flying with the goggles is a blast too.  

Rich

So, the Mavic will not disappoint you.

It is quieter than a girlfriend and you can plug it everywich way you want or NOT!

Yes it is much much quiter then the F4 Phantom.

Yes its quieter and quicker to get ready to fly I had a P3S very good
but Mavic far better but that's just my thoughts

Thanks All. Mind is made up, Mavic it is.

BTW: I was a crew chief / Weapons Tech on the Phantom F4 C/D & E Models 35 years ago in DaNang Vietnam  and Udorn Thailand. Even got to fly backseat in one twice for winning airmen of the quarter (USAF)

This was my bird

Now go out (or online) and buy one.

I've flown in a Cessna 152, 172 and a Maul. LOL. I even got to take the sticks. Dad owned the Maul until life circumstances forced him to sell it. After the Cessna's the Maul was a rocket.
