Just had maiden flight, here's my thoughts in no particular order. I'd be interested to read anyone else's list.

DON'T LIKE:
* props do not fold up well, hard to get them not to flex against the body.
* when folded with props removed, the device rests on the rear two prop shafts
* noisy
* seems to take a while to change direction, e.g. full left roll to full right roll. control not as precise as MP or Spark.
* 3.5GB file limit (this was with on-board RAM). No frame drop as it closed file 1 and opened file 2 but for such an advanced piece of tech this seems out of place.

DO LIKE:
* The gimbal, better than MP. Horizon remained level the whole time. Gimbal works in sports mode!
* Video quality. The extra 40MBs really makes a huge difference, especially when turning
* The lens. I think it's sharper than my MP. Everything was noticably crisper (100MBs may have helped here).
* The auto exposure did a nice job.

OVERALL: Very happy. I think I'll sell my MP & Spark and save for the MP2.
 
Strange my Air with turn really shady, I’ve had to really turn up the expo and reduce gains to slow Yaw down. Totally agre the combined gimbal and camera beat the **** out of the Pro camera. Sub 4gb files sizing is normal for all cameras record to FAT32 file systems.
