I am aware that it is not truely new and has been out for a few months. But the total package is nice and they have pulled in a lot together. Small things like dual controllers are a nice idea. Im not impressed about the body and legs, i think the great part is they are showing how to package everything.
The problem with other platforms, is they are a mess. For example today without modifying one of the OSDs and other DIY mods, you cant just have RSSI for the ground and video transmitters. Pixhawk/APM are almost there in this case, but in this case its just not there.
Sonar is another example. It just never worked and isnt even sold as part of any 3DR package. Optical flow is another never really worked add on. Is it even usable now on PH or APM ?
Again you fail to acknowledge LB being *live* HD FPV which is quite different from simplying hanging a HD camera and watching it later. I still think you have been a bit generous to the competition and downplayed the advances of this release.
Forgetting movable landing gear can you tell us of another platform that has all the other major features, that is remotely close in price ?
@Mustafa, mP1, if you read what I wrote you will notice I recognize the DJI marketing and commercial genius (that has effect on you two obviously). All the technical stuff you mention already exist for a long time in the drone world : SDks, optical flow, stabilized camera gimbals, HD cameras, inflight moveable landing gear, etc etc
@Huges
As Mustafa +1, summarised, its an awesome package. Outside of DJI there is no HD FPV package.
@Hugues, you clearly wanna ignore what they have done and looks like you are a fan boy(3dr), don't be. They come up with a unique frame which can form into two different frame shapes, one at the take off one at landing. This way they removed bulky landing gear(which is a hell of innovation).
First of all they know where to head off(which is of course aerial video - photography) So they integrated shutter control, take snap shot button, they also integrated hdmi port right into remote control so that you can directly stream the video to a tv during roll outs(which is another hell of an innovation).
They relased an SDK so that a high end RTF drone can reach hands of a developer who don't wanna deal with tech. stuff(which is another innovative idea)
They have an optical flow sensor underneath the drone for indoor flights(don't tell me that i can do this with apm, they integrated it right into a rtf drone, ask your self do the 3dr has an integrated flow sensor on iris+ in standart?)
Unlike 3dr they are really thinking out of the box!!! That design is a hell of a design. Now please don't be a fan boy and say there is no innovation, if you say so clearly you don't have an idea what do innovation means.
@mP1, LightBridge was innovative when it came out a while ago. This is nothing new.
This tech is available independently of Inspire 1. Additionnally, lots of DIY drones integrated HD fpv long ago too.
@Mustafa
The top of the "top content" appears to only count comments for a short period of time , just a few hours.. Since this was quite for a few, it slipped down the list. If the time wasnt limited then old but really busy posts would never disappear..
@Hugues
So congrats DJI for a magnificent commercial coup; and so long for zero techno innovation!
Me:
So Lightbridge (720p HD fpv) is not innovative ? Did you say HD TV was not new when it came out ?
3724 Epic! =)
3600+ views and 47+ comments in two days and not even at the last order of "TOP CONTENT" interesting!
I do not like the "uncovered machine/gears" design. But marketing and commercial packaging makes miracles: look how much attention and comments this drone is capturing. This is maybe marketing/commercial innovation that is so shocking sometimes for most of us, engineers, who are (too much) driven/excited by pure technological innovations.
So congrats DJI for a magnificent commercial coup; and so long for zero techno innovation!
