Hi FIVE

Another teaser from DJI after a long time. This is going to be phantom 5, the OSMO Mobile 5, or the Mavic 3?

DJI Teaser poster hinting a version 5 of something is coming.

Update: Looks like the Hi Five event is for the launch of OSMO 5. What could be new for OSMO 5?

DJI launching Mavic Air 2?

What is DJI going to show us this time? They have recently introduced the DJI X-Port which can be added onto the Mavic M series UAV. Will this launch be about the new M200 replacement?

Personally, I have been waiting hard for the new Inspire 3 to have a more reliable control signal as compared to the current Inspire 2. Anyway, let’s wait for 27 April to see what DJI has for us.

Let’s look at some leaked photos of the Mavic Air 2. It doesn’t look like it will have a 360 obstacle avoidance like the Mavic 2 series. But does look very similar to Mavic 2 in the shape and design.

Is smaller then Mavic 2
