I thought I post this for everyone else here who's into drones (as we had a discussion just recently). Apparently DJI has scheduled a new Mavic Drone for March 2018 and the website https://dronedj.com/2018/02/16...dronedj.com has posted some rumoured specifications:
- The official name will be Mavic Pro II instead of Mavic Pro 2
- It will be substantially larger than the current Mavic Pro
- 4820 mAh battery capacity and 15.2 V power (compared with 3830 mAh and 11.4 V for the current Mavic Pro).
- Different battery design than the current Mavic Pro
- Upgraded propulsion with larger motors (slightly smaller than current Phantom 4)
- 33-minute flight time. Maybe longer (current Mavic Pro has 27-minute and Platinum 30-minute flight time).
- 1? CMOS sensor (current Mavic Pro has 1/2.3? CMOS sensor) with 28mm lens.
- Newly designed 3-axis gimbal.
- Infrared 3D sensing to avoid obstacles even in the dark
- Binocular rear vision obstacle avoidance sensors.
- Same design of remote control as old Mavic Pro but drastically improved
- Will use OcuSync.
- Video transmission frequency is unknown.
- Improved agility and precision.
- Expected to outperform current Phantom 4 Pro.
- Beta testing of the Mavic Pro II ended late January.
- Mass production has started already (early Feb) and will not be impacted by Chines New Year.
- Launch date possibly March 22nd but could be later.
- The Mavic Pro 2 will be controlled with the DJI GO 4 app just like the current Mavic Pro.
- Expected price point: $1299 USD or more. The FlyMore combo will be more expensive.
