Yeah... but than question of objectivity will raise, right? I've noticed, there are youtubers which like anything they get for free without any critic stance. I guess everyone needs to filter honesty of the reviewer on it's own. New times, new marketing strategies, I guess.  With Casey, it's easy.... you see what he uses and it was mostly P4P so far... and now he said Mavic Air will replace it. Only the time will tell...

Very true indeed

Thanks! Been trying since last night haha

Now up to 399 I guess

Just helping out to bump the thread closer and closer

It is cruising along!

I think Grace may need to increase the 600...

Very successful thread!

Oh yes, it its.
Very successful.

I think the Mavic Air is a great release and exactly the niche that was missing in my humble opinion.
Although it makes you wonder when the Mavic Pro 2 will be released since the Air has some specs that are even better. (mainly the bitrate)

I have a feeling that this is just the start of a great year ahead for new drone releases... We may even have an Inspire 3 by the end of the year as Inspire's tend to be upgraded ever 2 years...

Anyway - 399 is next followed by 400...

Keep it going...

Yes, I hope you are right.
Although the 'new' Mavic (the true new Mavic) will be too expensive for me I expect.

Nope, no interest.

New releases tend to knock down the prices of the previous models too so wait and see I say

Do you think you will get the Mavic Air in time as a better price?

Not sure about that.
I first want to see some real users with real footage. Not from reviewers that are supported by DJI.

Absolutely - as I said before now, I only buy drones from stores in person these days too and long gone are the days of my being a beta customer. I'm happy with my lot but this does look great for what it's intended to do.

and 399 is getting closer...

and closer now...

In case you missed the presentation:


@ Grace, It might be useful to add this this your post, seeing as it's called "Enter to Watch Mavic Air LIVE"

It was a great presentation

Lots of debate on the Air all over social media

It will sell very fast!

He seemed very nervous!

Still a long way to go...

He's been in that role for years though - I remember him presenting the original Mavic 16 months ago.

It will come round fast

have you landed on a lucky number yet?

Yeah, that's why it's even more surprising!

Yup, but I like helping others!

I meant the 600

I would be curious to know why DJI decided to release the mavic air after CES rather than at the event? Any thoughts?

A CW Posted at 2018-1-24 08:17

Closer and closer!

Does mavic air have otg?
