Half inch versus One inch sensor, plus variable aperture.How the heck the 8K is cheaper than 6K? I saw the video but I got in shock with the pricing.

I kind agree with you. I see sometimes a YouTuber from Canada call Alan and he only flight in public parks in Canada. Everytime it flight, it needs to call the Canadian authority to let them know that he will be flying. That's just extreme.
check the APP from UAVforecast.com (I'm a user no affiliation)I believe they could be referring to the Beaufort Wind Scale. A level 8 would be 34 to 40 knots. Something like 40 to 45 mph. If this is what they are referring to then that thing should hold place pretty damn good, it'll obviously eat up power pretty quickly but a little gust here and there should be no problem
Videos are always good, but it would be more interesting to know what he has in his stomach, his functions, his flight modes as well as his possibilities and what he can do more compared to Evo 1.
For the moment, little information.
So IF the pricing holds at Mavic 2 levels it will be interesting to see DJI response. From what I've seen from them I think they are not going to want to act like their current offerings have lost value. They may go all out on a social media campaign that could get ugly but I really hope not. It could seriously backfire on them. IF they can get something out like a Mavic 3 or Phantom 5 within a couple months they can justify lowering the current products price AND charge a premium price over the Evo 2. I would expect something like "we are DJI and no one can match our quality even if its specs are not as good". If I were DJI I wouldnt try and get away with something like their Mavic 2 Pro "4k" video fiasco. The drone community is going to be taking a hard look at any new drone they release and it wont be pretty if they try and pull a fast one again. |
I will never buy another DJI drone... if I need another drone which I doubt... very satisfied with the Evo 1 and my mavic pro platinum. But if I need another one, I would buy an Autel Evo 2.

The prices are already been announced on CES... 8K $1495 - 6K $1795I'm not surprised theres no official pricing released yet on the Evo 2. It would be smart to see if DJI has any new release tricks or announcements before committing to a number. In other words cover your bases as best you can so the top dog doesnt have much to bark about.
I didnt realize those prices were/are official official since none of the review footage yet mentioned it yet.
You sound like a compulsive buyer... I am more a pragmatic buyer. If I do not need it, I don't need to buy it. I have an Evo 1, a spark and mavic pro platinum. I have a lot of fun with these drones and already invested too much in this hobby for me to make another purchase that I don't need. I don't have the 107 certification. I exclusively flight for fun.So far I love/hate the 2. I am excited about it and have saved up enough in personal $ to afford a Pro but I dont actually need it so dont know how to justify the purchase.
Apparently Autel told Drone Valley they are prone to fly away and to be careful.What do you mean? from testers from youtube? If it's from the videos above, I am at work and they block youtube.
