Can't wait to watch the reviews!

Seems a bit of a cheat to constantly post in what is essentially an already dead thread! Maybe DJI ought to review the numbering of the winners, and as there are only around 30 individual people that have posted so far, let everyone be a winner!

Absolutely, I am right now in the process of doing the pre-order to get one of the first ones

Haven't you seen my PM? Lucky number 76 could have been your's.

My reply’s keep disappearing! I am posting from iPad and it has some weird behaviors on this forum. I missed your PM in time, was eating my dinner, sorry :-) I’m still not sure it’s worth persevering with an essentially dead thread, hopefully @DJI Grace will do the right thing, pick the winners and shut it down

No, that's the fun of it. There are still 24 winners to come. You only need to monitor the thread and when the number of posts gets close to one of the lucky numbers it's your turn to react. That's how I got the lucky number 70# :-)

I applied for the free one if i get it I can start my own channel!!! ^-^

It’s not fun if there are only a few of you posting! And its completely lost the point of creating conversation about the new Mavic Air!

Really want to get selected for the free drone..

Does anyone know how many people will get the trial drones?

I assume they will publish the winners... But I don't know.

Me too, would be awesome!

DJI, you finley beat her down. The AIR impressed her enough to push the button. THANK YOU DJI, I no longer have to fell guilty, you got her to drink the KoolAid.

Wachtberger Posted at 2018-1-23 13:24
Yes you got it, congratulations!

Thank You,
Now if I can only get on the try list it would great. It would be fantastic to be on the free list.
Last but not least I'm kinda into hats T-shirts.

More Mavic decisions.......

Easy decision, you can’t take your hard earned cash with you!!

damoUK Posted at 2018-1-23 12:59
Oh that is so annoying, I posted about the live event in the unveil announcement thread and not this one, missed out on my chance of winning and getting points!
@dji team, perhaps when you do this sort of thing you could close the old thread and point us to the new one!

If you are interested in a Spark Fly more Combo in excellent condition with 6 batteries PM me. Mine will be for sale soon.

Ha ha, nice try, I’m sure someone will take it off your hands though. I think I will hold out for a Mavic Air - much more suited to my style of flying and filming!

Question is, whether to hold out for the bugs to be ironed out or be an early adopter - I’ve never had a significant problem with a DJI product and don’t want that reputation tarnishing now!

Wachtberger Posted at 2018-1-23 14:56

I bought the Mavic Platinum in late Nov last year and with all due respect I would consider the Air a downgrade from that so no. I did however sell my Spark before buying the Platinum so I don't have a mini drone now - just the MPP and P4P. Do I need a 3rd drone? Probably not. If I owned only a Spark right now and learnt a huge amount on that drone and felt ready - yes - I would buy the Air fly more IMMEDIATELY LOL. If I just bought my Spark I would feel a little gutted right now and no, I wouldn't upgrade out of principle. Does that make sense?

Yes your situation is indeed different from mine. I have the Spark for six months now and I bought it as a start into the hobby to see if it would really catch me. nd what can I say, it did not only catch me, it made me addicted from day one! And I had already decided for this year to go the next step, thus the Mavic Air is the perfect opportunity .

Price has to be a factor too, my better half just bought the Spark fly more for £480 (so she can fly/play while I’m out with the Mavic Pro). That’s half the cost of the Mavic Air fly more which for most people won’t give double the benefits. MA would suit me more than the Spark as I film 4K and do a lot of GSP missions which I assume will support this new drone,

This appeals more to me than mavic, purely because it's just so small but far more advanced than spark.

Ah ok, then I misunderstood your previous message. I had understood that you intended to rather go for a Spark than a Mavic Air.

Honestly - your dedication on here over the last several months has been inspiring and you have given out more on this forum than practically anyone else that I've seen. The Mavic Air was made for you! I hope your selected for one of those 1,000 because you deserve it mate. I'm not applying as I just can't manage three drones and a 13 month old son LOL

Wait, this is a Mavic, people are going to have to get used to adding Pro or Air now, in order to define what they mean :-)

Oh thank you very much for the compliment but there are quite a few others here too who are very committed, first of all hallmark007, who is helping many more than I am yet able to.

MPAW

LOL

I love the size of the Air

Can't wait for mine to ship, anyone know how load this beauty is going to be or is?

Gosh, the Fly More Combo for 480 Pounds? That is incredibly cheap!

I did say 'practically anyone' - but only to cover myself

Casey Neistat review was very detailed

I paid £699 for mine back in September and sold it to a 94 year old in October! Fair play to him!

ROFL. Now that’s confusing too, MAW = Mavic Air White, better be MalpW, then MAW, MAR and MAB for the colour choices of the MA(indistinct colour).

and its much smaller than the mavic. Casey kept saying the Air was smaller than the spark. It does not look smaller though?

Ok I see ;-) I can't wait to receive the Mavic Air I must say

Awesome New Product!
