Mavic Air 2 (just confirmed by FCC)

[psloan]

very big bummer if that is true.

Some potentially new shots in here -- if real (I previously posted no side sensors, I'm assuming the oblong things on the side are vents and not sensors....)

Very cute
But wait what does it has a Hassleblad cam??

Maybe this was asked already... compatible with Smart controller? Thanks all

As a first time DJI drone owner when the Mavic Mini was released last November, the Mavic Air 2 looks like a very intriguing upgrade.

Similar flight time, faster, nearly 5 mile range, and using DJI Fly makes for nice transition for MM owners. I hope my Mini 5 tablet mount can fit on the front of the new controller. Also curious what the weight is ?

 

[rtr32]

Around 500 grams is what I read. That's less than a MP1!

 

[easyheimer]

Yes and No. It will come in two versions (see pics below) according to this link posted on an other thread that got locked; one with ADS-B and one without. Makes me wonder if the ADS-B capable version will be more expensive.

The ADS-B model will be equipped with OcuSync.

There was some speculation about side sensors, I wonder if these are sensors just below each motor?

Believe those are front LEDs. However, it would be cool if they incorporated sensors into those.

Sweet... the 60fps ... I have been teetering on buying a M2Z and this will change the game for sure. Seems a little weird though, undercutting a still in production model.. so.. rumors rumors!

 

[Zandian]

Blurred? I see clear advantages to M2P. I would never own the MA, but that's me.
MA = 1/2" 12mp sensor, 1mi range with WiFi comm, 16min flight time, very noisy
M2P = 1" 20mp sensor, 4mi range with OcuSync2 comm, 23min flight time, less noise

Yep exactly why I sold the air and bought the M2P. But remember the M2P wasn’t out yet. The decision at the time was whether the air was better than the MP.

It'll have a 1/2.3 CMOS sensor according to Osita LV.

If you can't quite afford/justify getting a Mavic 2 Pro then this will be a great option by the looks of it. Personally I'm relieved I won't be regretting buying my Mavic 2 Pro anyway!

Amazed it's got the antennas built into the actual controller too!

Trying to keep myself calm until the official release but it is hard. Been waiting for this a while now and it sure looks worth it from the news that are emerging.

How long does it usually take for DJI from "official release" until shipping?
I have only bought one drone and it was used (bought it to learn) so I have never been through a release with DJI.

 

[Greekislandlover]

Am I alone in thinking it's actually quite ugly??

I loved the looks of the MA1 in red, much as I really loved my Spark in my chosen colour. When I purchased my M2Z I would have paid extra for a choice of colours, but I have got used to it in it's boring grey. But This thing to me looks remarkably ugly. Would it really hurt DJI to consider looks a little???

 

[Butterfly Copper]

For me the major open topic are still the side sensors. I understand that the 360° obstacle avoidance is not yet confirmed.

I get your point, I also like the looks of the Mavic Air, but for DJI to have a similar design on all drones in the Mavic series is for me expected, I would be very suprised if it didn't look like the other mavics since it is a series of drones for different users/usages. But honestly for me it could actually look like almost anything as long as it flies well and has good specs.

Release to shipping? That will be something to watch. When the mm was released, several were stuck up north for longer than I cared to watch.
I have purchased several DJI products on release day, but this won’t be one of them. I had a good lesson with the minI and I’m not up for that adventure again. I’ll be doing some lurking and reading on this new one and not make the error again. Something on this one that I posted some time ago was a detail that I noticed on the back of the arms. There is a seam line that makes me wonder if the arms are hollow like the mini. If they twist like the mini, I’m out.

I understand, and for me the same points are true. I purchased my M2Z for what it's capabilities are - not how it looks. And a corporate "Look and style" makes sense.
