Mavic Pro Platinum or Wait.......

What’s that set up on your white remote? Antenna mod? I have the MPP. Love it. Bought it about a month ago. No regrets. Just want the rain in New Jersey to stop.
It is the titan switch antenna. 20180516_160919.jpg
 
Hi guys I had a Mavic Pro last year but sold it at Christmas and I regretted it big time....
Want to get another Mavic but the platinum version or do I hold off for the Mavic Pro 2...?
What do I do.....?
I have the MPP. I like the longer flight time and the Platinum is really quiet relatively speaking. Not knowing if or when the Pro 2 might be coming suggests it is still months down the road. I suppose you can take (Number of Flights (Enjoyment/Pleasure) X Number of days until you think the Pro 2 will come out and compare that to Zero Flight Happiness.)
 
When I do buy I would rather buy new...would love the Mavic Pro 2 as it’s the latest one,it’s just how long to wait....[emoji848]
the mavic pro 2 is ALL HEARSAY thus far, there's millions of threads on it but not one single shred of evidence whatsoever. imo pull the trigger and have fun ya never know, who knows it just might come when the evo hits or maybe not. hope it helps.
 
I have both, a Mavic Air and a Mavic Pro Platinum. Bought the MA first, flew it for a few flights, but the noise bothered me enough that I just sold it. It’s a great drone with a better camera than I need so I picked up an MPP that I really like.

I’d say get something you like right now and sell it if something better comes along. At least for now you’ll be flying.

Good luck.
 
For video definately. For stills I have seen comparisons that suggest the Pro is at least as good, and it has the benefit of longer battery life, quieter operation etc too. That is why I bought a pro anyway.

I agree with you 100%. The Pro has a longer flight time wc allows you to have enough funtime flying and it can go at a longer distance. :)
 
Of course... Mavic pro camera is much better than the spark.
Mavic Pro and Spark have the same 12 mp camera. The difference is that you can shoot raw with the Mavic Pro Platinum. The Mavic also has 4k video. The Spark shoots at 1080p. The Air is superior to the Spark
