Glad my resources are on key!

I just bought a Mavic Pro and Spark!

And my wallet is still ready!

 

[JoostGT3]

Both the slogan and the design curves hint a mavic. Imo, it could either be a foldable spark, an mavic air or a mavic pro 2.

I am not interested in the spark.
If they decide to go for the mavic air, aka a cheaper, downgraded mavic, I am not interested. If they go for the mavic pro 2, aka a mavic with upgraded hardware (camera and/battery/motors) I would be interested if they kept the price level equal to that of the first mavic pro.

I guess only time will tell!

I am not interested in the spark.

I don't really care about the name of the AC, but it better have a wired RC connection and not use wifi

I just bought my Mavic Pro. And just got it in. Was going to get a spark too. Already have an Aton. I will hold off on the spark for now until I see what this is. If it’s a replacement/upgrade to the MP...not interested. The MP is more than what I need. But if it’s a downgraded version I’d buy in a heartbeat to travel with and teach friends how to fly with. That was my purpose for the spark.

The Spark is a really great drone. And it’s much much smaller in flight-ready position versus the Mavic. That in of itself makes it more zippy/useful in tighter places.

The weakest part of the Mavic has to be its camera. It’s just really, really basic - even though it’s 4K. Hopefully whatever this is has better dynamic range if it’s a direct Mavic replacement.

That thing is ugly as sin! And definitely not the Mavic Air.

And that is subjective. Also notice I said similar...

I hope dji keeps the "Mavic" name for their coming drone. I sure like this forum and the members here

Will this be streaming live?

 

[msinger]

There's no mention of a live stream. I'm sure at least one tech company will stream it (or post photos in real-time if streaming is not allowed for some reason).

Just for fun...

Supposably it will stream at Live.DJI.com at 10:AM Eastern.

Ah, I see they did mention it on Twitter.

 

[Kilrah]

That's blatant enough for me.

Im selling a kidney today (black market) so I can get whatever this thing is that they are selling.
The "Doctor" says I should be back on my feet by 1/23/2018.
I'm already on an anti anxiety prescription but it doesn't seem to be helping much.☹

Well done, sir. That's pretty convincing we'll see the Mavic Air. I'll call it now: $649 (MAYBE $699). Feel free to ridicule me when I'm wrong.

But it makes sense. The Tello for $100. The Spark for $400, the Mavic Air for $649/$699, and the Mavic Pro for $1k (Platinum $100 more). Price points covered!

 

[Dragonfly]

This is another possibility and what I think we might get.
I think Mavic2 will be the Mavic Air.

现在是预言时间！Mavic 2会是什么样子_大疆无人机FPV航拍资讯网

And here I have translated it all for you.

After nearly 3 years, DJI launched a major breakthrough in the unmanned aerial vehicle mavic finally updated, Mavic 2 grand debut! Let's take a look at what the next generation of Mavic looks like

Mavic 2 follows the design of the first generation of Mavic, but more stature than the first generation, both inside and outside have carried out a new upgrade. More advanced flight platforms, higher-specification cameras and better endurance make the Mavic 2 still the top-notch consumer-grade folding drone.

Newly upgraded 1-inch camera, four times the area of the first generation Mavic, equipped with an equivalent 28mm lens with adjustable aperture and mirror shutter, dynamic range, color sensitivity, signal to noise ratio and night performance greatly improved, the new D The -Log curve and D-Gamut color space lead to greater post-production space.

FlightAutonomy Mavic 2 system equipped with further upgrades, the new post-binocular vision sensing system that can detect obstacles in the rear of the aircraft in real time, giving before and after the flight safety and security.

A new generation of smart batteries, Mavic can bring up to 35 minutes of flight time, built-in 70W heating system, even in cold weather can play the best performance.

Note: Mavic 2 smart battery is not compatible with the first generation Mavic!

Mavic 2 will be on sale in 2018, the specific time or ask Dajiang good ...

I will still choose the elves 5, after all, you can change lenses ... ...

As for the prophecy will not happen, please wait Mavic 2 officially released.
