While I would agree there is no need whatsoever for a phantom 5 given the folding more compact platform of the Mavic and the Autel Evo series type folding drones, with that being said at the CES Show the DJI representative I talked to said marketing says yes Engineers say no... So whatever the heck that means?!
I think there done with the phantom series is because most hobbyists like a drone thats compact and foldable easy to carry like cellphones once big then small know medium size
