Isn’t once a month, like a period?  Obviously a understatement. ;-)

What ever happened to “wait and see”?

I havent voted as im on the fence with this one, i mean, the end of the year is a long time.... We need to ask ourselves, did DJI make the V2.0 just to get rid of excess casings/cameras, now that ive said that, probably unlikely as they are needed for parts lol, oh well, the idea was there lol its not totally implausible though, is it? ready for the next model? yeah, still sounds stupid i know lol, i'll get me coat....

The real question is: Will a Phantom 4 be out by the end of 2019?

haha too funny

Probably like car company's ... there will be a Limited or Special Edition ..... to close of the 'line'.

If they don't produce another Phantom - it will be a sad day I reckon. Not everyone is 'sold' on the Mavic / Spark idea of foldability.

I suppose a Marketing Consultant will advise on the best move forward and like most - ignore consumers wants.

yep- hoping for a new phantom!

Should be about time a new Phantom showed up... 360 obstacle avoidance, quieter props, greater flight time, zoom,... just about everything a Mavic 2 has but improved.

yes yes yes!

no software updates, inexpensive, won't crash...hey we're on the wish list right?
With Phantom suppkies drying up and little sign of a new model, I wonder if default will become mavic?  

May be, may be not.

It would have to improve radically before it was comparable to the Phantom.

Software updates are good when the Drone already comes with everything but the update makes a "remix" of the capabilities to make a new one that wasn´t thought of at the beginning

I have received advice that the Phantom Pro V2.0 has now been discontinued and that there will be no Phantom 5. DJI is apparently focusing on the Mavic. It’ll be interesting to see if this information is correct. Note. I’m not claiming to be privy to DJI decisions. I’m just passing on what I believe may be credible information.
Edit. Probably, I should have used the words “plausible information” rather than “advice” but, as above, time will tell whether it’s correct.

Received advice?
Care to share that and some details?
Or is this just another uninformed opinion?

It’s what I believe to be plausible information for the consideration of other readers. Like many other posts in these threads, it may be wrong and we will see in due course.
Personally, I do believe that DJI might well drop the Phantom series in favour of more Mavic 2 (or other Mavic) developments. There are, of course, some differences between the two but what’s missing from the Mavic 2 could generally be added. I believe it would be beneficial for DJI to reduce costs and speed development by focusing on less hobby class drone series.

I was just trying to work out if your opinion (?) was any more reliable than all the others that are getting around.
You mentioned something about receiving advice but from what you now say, it sounds like it's just a guess with no particular evidence to support it?

I wonder what you put in post #30 that was deleted??

Rotflmfao

Every couple months I find myself looking for updates as well.
But at this point, I think they dialed in the tech to where they really need to come up with something that says "wow" to put a "5" behind it.

I think DJI is loosing their momentum.

hey Bashy let's put our money on 2020. Might be closer to an answer by then. And probably be the Wraith 1.

I had to go look at what i said, i thought i'd made a Stargate Atlantis reference, then i re-read your reply and understand it now lol

Wraith.....

Wasn't there a post here or on Phantom Pilots about an interview some DJI guy gave and said Phantom line was finished ? The post even gave the video link to the interview.

Lol

I have a P3A and a P3P. I think that I will wait until the model P6A or the P6P is available to purchase.
