Mavic Air? January 23, 2018

[CChoiVA]

Wondering if anyone else has heard rumors of a "Mavic Air" supposedly being announced on January 23. Was reading a article and it states that it will probably a smaller and faster version of the Mavic Pro with a price point between $600-$900 to help bridge that gap between the Spark and Mavic Pro. Allegedly there was a video posted online with a sighting of the Mavic Air but has since taken down. It would be nice if there were some photos of its size compared to the MP, if not then I guess we'll have to wait a little over a week.

This looks like its real, I wonder why DJI is so quiet about it if its legit. Is it possible they want to be sure they are first to go to market especially with Auto on there heels?

How come this New York event is not listed on any of DJIs events calendar or website?

I'm still waiting for autel to confirm a release date for their new quad so that Dji will release the next generation of drone 2 weeks later.

Mavic 2, with 1" sensor, can fly in the rain and has 1 hour flight time...or some such thing.

DJI posted this announcement on their website here.

It would no doubt be a huge splash...

Hoping its a drone that bridges the gap between the Spark and MP. Better not be a MP2 considering I just bought a MPP not too long ago. I'd like to enjoy this one for a bit before having to think about buying another one.

A rainproof drone is unlikely, sadly, as the forward obstacle sensors need to be able to see what the heck is going on, and rain tends to prevent that...

No one will know until the release. Can’t wait for the actual specs from DJI.
