Good day guys.
My brother and I are still in the market for a quadrocopter to film our trips. We were about to buy a Mavic Pro Fly More Combo last year but people told us to wait for the new models. Now that the Platinum and the Mavic Air is out there are more options. I like that the Mavic Air is heaps smaller and has an improved camera. But what I don't like is the reduced flight time (25% less) and that it doesn't use Ocusync. But it is also a bit cheaper. Anyone here who has tested both and can give me some feedback? It's gonna get used a fair bit (at least 1-2 weekends a month) and we're looking into getting a commercial licence too. So maybe spend a little more and get something that lasts us longer?
