I bought a P4 last year....since then i've been completly adicted to flying. I was on vacation for the last couple of weeks and when I got back sunday I saw the new Mavic pro....obviously I was late on the news!!! .......wow ...almost the P4 in a small package......ok call me crazy but I have been debating with myself for 48hrs on just what to do....sell my P4 and buy a Mavic or just go nuts and buy the Mavic and keep the P4.
Well here I am, 48 hrs after seing the first Mavic review........ I just ordered the Mavic and i'm keeping my P4.

I decided to blame it on mid life crysis....
I'll let you guys know how it goes the sec I get it .....meanwhile, me and the dog are by the door ....waiting for the postman!


Best.

Did exactly same myself, mid life crisis maybe.

P4 last year?

You must be single. One drone was an argument with the wife. I can only imagine what the discussion would be if another $1,000 drone showed up. I would have to sell my P4 to justify.

I am going to wait and hear early adopter feedback before selling my P4 and diving in.

Love the P4 but it is HUGE with the backpack and all. A smaller P4 is welcomed.

Crazy,
I literally had the P3 advanced in the Amazon cart along with an extra battery, rotors, filters, etc... I was trying to figure out how to justify the purchase to the wife. The next day I decided not to buy it and check out the Karma. In looking for that I found the Mavic and pre-ordered it. Not sure how to explain it yet. Anniversary gift?

A Mavic would make an excellent anniversary gift, she is a lucky lady!

My wife bought me the P3 in June for my birthday.    Sticking to my usual strategy of wedded bliss, I immediately asked her if she was ok with me selling the P3 and buying the Mavic.    I do this sort of thing often to minimize the impact to our family budget.    She was cool with it.

You can buy her the drone for your anniversary and then get her the DJI goggles for her birthday!

That falls in the same category as buying her a vacuum cleaner for Mother's Day.

I bought the porsche this year as well...so the mavic was even harder to explain.
