Is there any estimation for when the Mavic will be in general stock?  I'm kicking myself for not ordering in September.

Np! Same story if your interested in the FMC version

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIAAWD4RB9978&Tpk=9SIAAWD4RB9978

Yep!  Was JUST looking at the two.

@Dan, what made you go for the FMC?  Which parts will you use besides the extra batteries?

DJI has been promising a date, and then switching the date, since they introduced the drone... lol

DJI has been known for this on all their drones, not this one specifically.

Up until a few days ago DJI said 4-6 weeks for delivery, now their site says 7-10 days.
So I would guess they are catching up with production.
I only paid 15% by switching to dansdeals

I'm tempted but living in 5t it wouldn't be a wise purchase.

Dead now, in future try newegg to see if they will price match it for you to $1,199 and no tax.

Boom!

Among other things, Autel will have a totally new camera out in Q2, which looks to be the same idea as the new P4P - 1", 20mp, the works. And note that I said new camera, not new drone - the X-Star is modular, so you could swap out the camera in 10 seconds flat. Do you want a FLIR camera instead? Coming in Q1. Multi-spectral? 360? Done, and done.

Oh, and a smaller drone with retractable legs, 10 obstacle avoidance sensors, AND still interchangeable cameras? In the works, too (still larger than the Mavic though).

I dunno.  The size of the MP beats all of this for me.

Get back to me when they have all these features in a drone the size of the MP.
