So, after 4 faithful years, my Mavic Pro is finally going out the door while it still has some commercial value.
The money will serve as seed for my next drone.
I don't fly a lot (...in fact, I seldom fly...) but, when I do, I derive extreme pleasure from the activity so there's no chance I won't be getting a new drone in the near future or in a medium time frame.
The advanced-enthusiast drones DJI currently features don't seem to fit my bill.
The Mavic 2 Zoom has the cool zoom feature, but the sensor is a minimal increment (if any) from this original Mavic Pro I am now letting go ( I am quite into videography and aerial photography).
The Mavic 2 Pro has a very good 1" CMOS camera but I can't wrap my head around the 77º FOV/28mm equiv. FL.
The new Mavic Air 2 would be perfect for me in what pertains to the sensor size compromise, overall size, weight and flight time but my next drone has to have 360º collision protection so I can let go of the double-approach I currently have for my Litchi waypoint missions (a version-A mission first flown with the drone always pointing forward, to see if the planning was completely OK for obstacles and a twin, B-same-track mission, with the drone then safely flying sidewyas, focused on the POIs).
The drone I am lusting for is something like a Mavic Air Pro 2 in size, weight, battery, camera specs and performance but featuring 360º protection, costing between 750 and 1500 EUR.
When do you guys think we will see something like this?
Thanks!
