pros:
1 single neat tidy all in 1 design, functionally reliable in a wide range of temperatures and environments (-20 degrees - +140 degree and screen is very bright and visible in direct sunlight) likely future proofed design as seems DJI will be moving future aircraft to occusync ecosystem in the future with prosumer and up. runs a DJI eco system on custom baked android OS. this can be both a pro and a con depending how you look at it, but if this is a dedicated flying device i see it as a pro as means less apps fighting for resources in background or misbehaving causing you to possibly miss an opportunity.
cons:
expensive at $750, screen size is limited at 5.5 inches, slower to see updates and bug fixes, if you break the screen maybe hosed if no other controller to utilize since cant attach you phone to it and use it like standard controller to get around hat issue, no built in sim card slot + no cellular built in, need to use a USB dongle for cellular, no dedicated telemetry screen only in app which has come into handy for me a few times for me..
overall for average user, probably not the best solution as price is 1/2 cost of the mavic 2 itself (depending on the model picked) but for someone looking to integrate mavic 2 series into an actual pro-cinema use case and demand reliability and minimal startup time $750 is justified. |
