I just had a dronegasm:

I'm pretty sure I would make myself cry with my first unintended landing. I don't think I could handle a $5K crash. That does look really nice though.

I don't see how GoPro is going to continue in this game.

I am just blown away by the Phantom 4 Pro and the leap that it took beyond the Mavic, which in itself was quite a leap beyond the Phantom 4. It really makes me wonder what the Phantom 5 would look like, due in March.

I really gotta hand it to DJI. With the demise of Apple's ability to innovate, at least the spirit of Steve Jobs is still out there somewhere, even if it is China.

The 4 Pro is newer than the Mavic and they are expecting a P5 in March?

I am still holding off on a Mavic.

Not a drone guy at all, but I was driving home from the hardware store and saw this:

That has got to suck.

As the landscape is shaking out, the Mavic Pro's forte is going to be transportability at the expense of photographic capability. The Mavic's camera will be good, but the Phantom is apparently going to use its size to be about photography rather than backpackability.

No clue what a Radio Shack drone is about. I think they're mostly toys.
