224 Bidwell Ave. Westerleigh

Great job on this video Charles.    That's a really nice looking old colonial home.  Great to see the hardwood floors.  It's a small lot but at least it is a corner lot.

Thanks this was using the Air 2S and the OSMO 3. Finally getting the hang of the Osmo 3. It is starting to replace my heavy DSLRs for video work.  These older homes in Westerleigh have some charm. Something lacking in the newer homes today.

You're most welcome Charles.  Good to hear that the OP3 is becoming your go to camera for video work.  That should lighten the load on your camera bag considerably.

It's so easy to use and carry. It makes light work of panning. I wish it was a little better in low liht conditions.

It is a lot better in low light than the OP2 was for sure but it could still stand some improvement.  I can't believe we've only had one FW update.  It's as if DJI moved on from it and are concentrating on the Neo, Air 3S, OA5, etc.  I even read an article online that DJI is developing their own DSLR camera.

I saw that too. Hopefully it won't be banned.

Smart-looking residence, in a pleasant-looking area.

I'd really like to see some specs on it.  Maybe some leaks will come out before too long.

It's funny how they market their products with leaks. And everyone looks forward to them.

Thank you, much appreciated.

Nive pad there Charles.

There seems to be lots of home listings lately.

I'm sure the leaks are planned by DJI and they seem to create quite the interest and hype which probably results in more sales.

I think that that's their marketing plan. Create the need with leaks.

It seems to have been very successful for them.  I'm see a ton of hype over the Neo and I'm not sure exactly why yet.  It seems to be just a mini Avata 2.

It's not for dedicated drone pilots. I believe it's a selfie drone for the masses. Video quality will be minimal but it will be small and safe and less destructible for the masses.

I hope I'm proved wrong but it sure seems the Neo is "gimmicky".  No doubt they are targeting a niche market.

I think it would be one of those fun things to fly in the house or when you don't care about cinema quality.

Of course with no obstacle avoidance you'd have to be careful while flying indoors.  It will be interesting to see how well they sell.  I have a friend who is one of the Managers at the local BestBuy and he told me that based on quantities sold the best selling DJI drone to date was the Mini 2 followed by the Air 3.  He said they sold out as soon as they could get them in stock.  He said the FPV drone, the Avata or Avata 2 sold but only in small numbers.

The masses want cheap and easy. And that's what the neo will be. IMHO

At the rumored prices they will be cheap compared to the big brother Avata 2.

Yes, They are trying to get everyone into the hobby.

We have a thing here where people try and sell around this time of year in the hope to have a new house for Christmas.

Got to saturate the US market with new products while they still can.

That's nice. Here Spring fever hits and people look for a new place. Since we are so commercially oriented here people are busy spending on other things during the holidays.

I would think so. I am curious to see what happens this month. They are supposed to reconvene this month to negotiate the drone bill.

They definitely never stop innovatiing. There is always something new coming out.

I didn't see it listed on Monday's (Sept. 9) Senate calendar but it could still be added.

The drone industry on you tube re all saying Sept 8 but who knows maybe they are just whipping us up.

It's why they are number one. Great marketing followed by great products and service. Hard to beat.

That's for sure. We are lucky if they come in during the week.

I just wish they would continue to improve their products for longer instead of moving on to the next evolution in 12 months.  Then again, that would slow down sales of new products.

It seems like everyone on youtube wants to talk about it to get followers but nobody has any facts. Just conjecture. Stefanick keeps coming back to the well though.

There's a chance we will not know anything until after election.  The NDAA needs to pas by mid December or they need to do another CRA.  Hopefully, they will not attach the new CCP bill to the NDAA again.

The politicians are too busy worrying about the upcoming election to get anything done.
