[QUOTE="Macinfo, post: 100396, member: 18433"] There are boat loads of speculation about what DJI is doing next. The Mavic Mini news may indeed be a new drone, if that's what its called, but others are calling out the leaks, because there is no clear eviidence that it will see the light of day or when, could be months. In the mean time, we all see these possible new drones from DJI, and evaluate it based on the fact that inventory on many drones appears to be drying up and the Spark really appears to to be EOL at least as far as shipments. Many of DJI's existing models are really good, they could make minor tweaks, and not really change the name or add 2.0 to it or something and go forward. Much of what pilots want I think are in the software. Could be wrong. Which is why Litchi is up and coming, have not tried it myself, but been pondering looking into it. The other issues are so many places are making it hard to fly, and the GO App of course will not let you fly without getting approvals to fly there. its a really big world and while I can understand the need for caution, the restrictions in some cases I think are over done, some limits make sense, others do not IMHO. Its all the restrictions that I think are making DJI wonder whether the recreational drone business is worth it.. The other drones that keep popping up, the occasional new review on YouTube for some company you've never heard of coming out with a drone, $2-3-400 and no sensors, sort of cheap looking, maybe no remote, some interesting features, but seemingly over priced.. Which don't even really compete with the Spark. I really enjoy my Spark, its a great drone, If I upgrade to anything down the road, probably look at the Mavic Air, it seems like a good combination of options with minor limitations at a good price point, assuming it's not about to disappear as well. my two cents for the day..
