I'm mad at you DJI! I bought a Mavic 2 literally 2 weeks ago!!

This Air 2S seems like a better option all around, at 2/3 of the price!

I personally have two drones on either end of the consumer scale.
* P4P (v1)
* Mini 2

Though impressive, the only personal, practical advantage of this over my P4P is the size.


I also fly others for work.
* Matrice 210 v2 (X5S/XT cameras)
* Mavic 2 Zoom

Seems like a lower-cost alternative to the Mavic 2 Pro? Tell me otherwise?

Pretty much with better video capabilities.

Uses DJI Fly vs DJI Go 4
Also, doesn't appear to support DJI Goggles.

No!

I will spend my next drone budget definitely on a skydio 2 with autonomous 3D scanning. Made in the USA, I love this product!

Seems like a nice drone, but I have 3-Phantom 4 Pro2s and a lot of batteries. Nothing I see would make me buy one, but I do like that it has a 1" sensor.

Active Tracking is not the same as 3D scanning.

Your P4P also has a 1" sensor.

I debated on waiting til’ the 30th to order an iMac but I’d rather have the rumored 30” iMac so, I’ll see what happens this fall

Internals are more or less the same on the new iMacs as the last batch of M1 machines

Skydio looks very cool. I'd love to get away from DJI.

I recently purchase the Air 2S and it is fantastic. Mastershots is the secret weapon. Mastershots will run a routine of preset perfectly executed shots of a target area. The camera looks fantastic. If you are in need of a new drone for pro photography, this beast is hard to beat.
