[view_image]ben forever since i ben here but decided to check in and comment on this: i circled what gives it way as a drone in my opinion. that front area looks like a obstical aviodance sensor system, little bit inverted from the mavic 2 series but look about right. and then 2 what appear to be props on each side. as for what is the green thing that could the battery/power button/indicator we know the leaks showing top mounted battery in mavic alleged mavic air 2 / mavic, but always a possibility that it maybe top mounted snesor array for aviodance on top case since oddly enough, the leaks of the top down view cut right after the battery cut out.
side note: lidar is becoming cheaper, being added into iPad Pro nd is fairly small unit now, unknown the actual part cost but this could be we may start seeing lidar built into our drones, possibly side mounted/flanking lidar systems to fill in that blind spot of aviodance DJI drones have since wouldnt and shouldnt cost much proccessing time, and would cost much less than vision based. only down side is it may struggle at measuring glass and oddly reflective materials as well as bright lights like the sun may cut down effective range and distance it can measure.
I think you're right on describing what the announcement photo represents. The Props; The body creases could be front or back view and the green dots as the Power button.
I wasn't thrilled with the new name being 'Mavic Air 2'. Since it doesn't have the same body look as the Mavic Air, but more like the Mavic Pro or Mavic 2 Pro and Zoom. But what would it be called then? Just "Mavic"? |
