    Mavic pro, Platinum or Air?

    I am in absolutely the same situation. I like the MP because of the OcuSync vs the WiFi of the Air. But I love the additional features (camera shots, sensors etc) of the Air over the MP and the size is awesome! I don't need massive range, but all my flights will be in the metro/built up areas...
