Saw this vid of the Anafi, I guess no drone is immune to the camera tilt even the Anafi.

This issue has been around since gimbals were attached to drones. Most time software corrects it. Some of my older DJI's had the same problem. A quick adjustment in the app would correct it.

OK, except for the horror stories I've read about Parrot's Customer No-Service, I like many things about this drone. Quiet. Even with the quietest props on the XSP, it can be heard far and wide -- it's my #1 issue with the XSP -- you can't be subtle in nature where there's naturally very low background noise. I must fly higer than I really want to...
It seems well designed from a systems integration standpoint, albeit with $$$ add-on's which I fear are the future for all drones, it keeps cash coming-in on older purchases. The App looks pretty solid, and a gimbal calibration of sorts is welcome. Gimbal flexibility is great. Just what are the actual limitations of a modern 2-axis gimbal? Has S/W overcome most of them vs. 3-axis?

I've never had to deal with DJI or Parrot when it comes to customer service, my knowledge about their CS is based on what I hear from the guys here in the forum which obviously have dealt with both companies. I can say though that I've dealt with Yuneec and they seem to respond quickly and professionally so I would say their CS is good. Autel is good too but you guys already know that. I'm still partial on the Anafi only because of it's features and price point. I know these 2 drones are different and EVO technically have more tech (I think). Hopefully I will be able to make a decision eventually when the time comes to purchase one.

Wonder how much the manufacturer wholesale price or invoice price for retailers are? I have a friend of a friend (yup that cliche 
) who knows someone at one of the well known retail big box store (yup another cliche ) says that the employees pay 5% over the invoice price for the products they sell. Let's assume that the invoice is $600, then the employee would pay $630 plus tax depending on the U.S state. -BTW this is not the invoice for the Anafi, it's just an example. If I can get it at a discount....it may be worth looking at the EVO too he he he
