    All good points. Thanks for the input.

    I noticed the PolarPro filters are on the pricey side of things. Would you be able to elaborate and educate on what makes a filter "cheap" and maybe why it would be worth "investing" in pricier filters?

    Well I bought the Mavic Air Fly More Combo. Bought from Best Buy...had $100 in rewards certificate so brought the cost to $850 after tax. Charging batteries as I type this. Next purchase is ND Filters, signal reflectors, landing gear extensions, landing pad(probably). Any suggestions or...

    On a scale from 1-10 with 10 being definitely buying the Air I'm at about an 8 right now. I'm kind of waiting to see if there are any holiday sales.

    Noise is definitely a factor for me. I've seen videos comparing noise levels between the DJI magic drones. I don't know that there is one drone that is so much more quieter than the others that I could say for sure people wouldn't notice it. In that vein I don't know that any of the Mavic drones...

    Long range is not priority for me, but a rock solid connection within line of sight is. With the MP1 being sale it's within $100 or less of the Air's price point so it's an option I considered. However I think my debate is really between the Air and M2P. Less expensive vs double down and get...

    Can anyone speak on the difference/accuracy of the active track between the Air and M2P?

    I like the concept of spending money on the filters and batteries. That seems to be a good way to spend some additional cash but not the whole "wad". I definitely like the idea of the small portable package of the Air and if it's not that much more to pack a couple of extra batteries and...

    You've made a compelling argument of the Air. I now have the Air at the top of the list and will think on it a few days before purchasing. Thanks for your insight.

    I am definitely leaning towards the Air for all of the reasons you stated. Of course the price tag is also a huge factor. I want to make sure I don't regret going for cheaper just for the sake of cheaper though. I'll spend money if the value is there, and I know value is subjective. I also...

    Mavic Air or Mavic Pro Platinum...or Mavic 2 Pro

    I have the money for any of the three options but don't necessarily want to spend all of the money. *Note: I do have a Phantom 4 and owned a Mavic Pro Platinum but returned it when I heard of the new Mavics release. I don't fly that much mostly due to time constraints. Here's what I am most...
