I'm geeked for the announcement!

 

[Erk1024]

The Flip is already up on the DJI website this morning. I feel sorry for those models that had to run around the forest barefoot.

Lijkt me interessant. Kijk eens op youtube naar het probleem van windgedrag.

 

[tstr14]

If it doesn't sell, will it become known as the Flip-Flop?

 

[leonasj]

im upgrade from neo to flip to my son and its big upgrade to speed,camera,battery,wind resistance and more

 

[OrionsQwest]

I am a new flip user. I have the Mavic 2 also. I just found out about something I never experienced before. When flying my flip I ran into higher than normal winds I was only up about 160 feet but what I didn't know is RTH doesn't work when wind is high. I will have to be more careful in that regard in case in I lose line of site and get turned around.

RTH works at any strong wind no problem even at mountains. just simply red letters writing bulshit.

Why not join the FlipPilots forum (link at bottom of this page) and post your observations over there. It would be helpful to other Flip pilots and to new pilots considering the Flip.

I'm not interested in the Flip and even if I was, I would not register to another forum.
I follow too many forums as it is and don't need another.
I have mentioned this for the NEO but the owner of this forum just doesn't get the message.

That's your choice and you have a right to your opinion.

In my view the NEO and Flip are unique products and do not fit into the MavicPilots forum, just like the FVP drones like the Avata's. If you want to find information specific to the Flip you do not have to wade through a ton of irrelevant information on the MavicPilot's forum to find it, you just go to the appropriate forum. The NEO forum is quite active and there is lots of useful and helpful information on it. The Flip forum will likely get more traction as more and more people acquire Flip's making the information posted there helpful.

All opinions should be respected. IMHO, it's just a name.
Call the NEO a "Mavic NEO" and the whole argument for a dedicated forum instead of a section here falls apart.
One more thing to consider: Liquidity breeds Liquidity.

Never said I didn't respect your opinion. I just disagree with it, that's all. Just like you can disagree with my opinion which is totally fine with me.

[DarR-T]

Never said I didn't respect your opinion.

I never suggested that you didn't.
In fact, I agree with your post # 12 that people are entitled to their opinions.
They don't have to agree but that's not a bad thing either. It just shows a different perspective.

Why not join the F̶l̶i̶p̶P̶i̶l̶o̶t̶s̶ NeoPilots forum (l̶i̶n̶k̶ a̶t̶ b̶o̶t̶t̶o̶m̶ o̶f̶ t̶h̶i̶s̶ p̶a̶g̶e̶) and post your observations over there. It would be helpful to other F̶l̶i̶p̶P̶i̶l̶o̶t̶s̶ NeoPilots and to new pilots considering the F̶l̶i̶p̶ Neo.

Against my better judgement and convictions, I followed your advice (sort-of) and registered on the NeoPilot forum although it's pretty much dead.
Liquidity breeds liquidity which is why this forum is a success.

This happens every time a forum operator expands too fast and sucks liquidity out of the forums he created. The NEO forum is dead. All your hear is crickets unfortunately. Same thing will happen with the Flip forum, just watch. Same thing for the Commercial Drone Pilot forum. We could use some of their comments here if we had a section for them.
Liquidity is what makes this forum attractive.
Best thing is to funnel activity here by adding other sections for other DJI drones.
I encourage everyone to support this suggestion by contacting the administrator.
"Liquidity Breeds Liquidity".

As you already know, I disagree with you. The problem with one ‘Everything’ forum is it keeps getting bigger and bigger as more drone models are added.

With any new forum activity does taper off after the drone is released but picks up again as new accessories are announced/released like the Goggles N3 or new firmware is released.

I personally am glad there is a separate NEO forum dedicated to it as I think there would be much less interest in discussing news and issues related to it on a forum dedicated to Mavics. The same goes for the Flip although it has a lot of similarities to the NEO.

Hi Chris, that's all good and as you know, I don't mind any contra-opinions.
Cheers, Dennis
