I just mentioned the P3 is (will be) easier indoors due to its visual positioning system, like the I1 has. 3DR already mentioned they will be probably releasing a "lidar" addon to the solo for indoor flight so its probably safe to say upon release the P3 will be easier to fly indoors, then the solo.
The I1 is a different machine then the P3. The I1 was never meant to replace the Phantom series and its been safe to assume there was going to be a new Phantom with similar technology. The I1 is at a different level. Dual remotes, 320 degree camera, hdmi out, etc..
As for upgrading, its really hard to say how the upgrades will be. You can buy the solo now and spend 2x the price of a P3 Advanced, then later an upgrade option might require the "Solo 2", which might require another $1500 investment before you can even get that piece of hardware. Meanwhile the P4 might come out with the $1k/$1300 price tag and have the same feature. Its really hard to say what will happen with the upgradable hardware. Afterall just look at how the P3 has the VPS system, and the Solo will have it as a future upgrade (after already spending $1900 to get a flyable camera).
But if the features of the solo fit your needs and wants, go for it. It looks like its going to be a good machine. |
