Looks like an interesting addition to the gang. Agreed, it won't have quite the same abilities as the Inspire, or any other DJI creation, but I'm sure it would prove handy somewhere!

Would you use one?!

That is very very cool!

That's a very good and different idea and would consider it.

It's quite something isn't it!

I see all this kick starters popping everywhere with preorders and I start to wonder if they are just smoke and mirror and in the end they are just scams.

Very true - one must question.  It's been 22 months, and I'm still waiting on my "Coin"...

I think your not the only one waiting for the "coin"

I see this platform as a useful tool for search and rescue if it only had infrared Camera it would be perfect an inexpensive

It's interesting for sure - hope they go well with it.
Probably the most innovative design I've seen in a while - wonder how well it will fly?
Would be awesome for photogrammetry.

Very neat!   Definitely not for me as I'm more about filming than flying and there's nothing there for me.

I could see this in use for commercial and large residential security.
Interesting at best.

Certainly doesn't look like the smoothest of flights, it looks like there should be a militarised version already! Once they change propulsion from blade to micro jet type thing, every cop will have one.

Good idea to consider!
