DJI Mavic Pro Real World Orders

[Dronebow]

I never owned a drone.. I pulled the trigger on the Mavic, after over year talking/thinking about getting a drone.. I came close to getting the Karma, but then the Mavic came out and i just got went for it.. So I think I'm a typically first drone owner..

Might be a good idea to get a cheap toy drone to practice with before you fly your Mavic for the first time. I had a Syma x5c that was a learning quad and is very durable. All my crashes and running into trees and fly aways were on the $45 quad.. The Phantom 3 has been rock solid and amazing. Glad I did a bit of learning on the cheapo though...

My cousin has a P3A and I have two friends that are contemplating either the Karma or the Mavic. We are all into tech/cars/photography etc.

I agonized over this decision, in fact did a quick video explaining why chose the Mavic - not sure if this helps..

0 - Folks think i am insane for spending over 1000 bucks for a "toy"....

You should see the plus side of $50k planes, helis and multis hanging up in my shop.

The Mavic is one of the cheap ones.

Exactly, most people think I'm crazy.. I'm getting the P5 too.

If I had no cameras I would get the Karma. The video from the Hero 5 will be nice I'm certain and this allows you to do everything. Can essentially scuba, bike, and fly all with one Cam.

The Mavic is the best aerial platform. So it comes down to what is most important.

Great news! Just checked my order, still shows as not shipped. Hope people post as soon as they get it so I can have an idea of when I'll get mine.

I'm hoping since I'm getting this via a 3rd party dealer that I'm higher on the list than DJI direct.. as I ordered on 9/29 - two days after the announcement..

Pretty soon this thread will go silent, we will be out there flying our new cameras! Won't see the wife and kids for a long while with my Fly More Combo.
