gsenroc Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Yes it looks nice. It's kind of a Phantom 3 4k competitive so GPS positioning only without forward computer vision and other shiny stuffs. Should be quite ok just like the Phantom 3. Looking forward to the footages and reliability feedbacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wobba Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 According to Cnet, the Xiaomi Mi does not lack vision position for low altitude flights: - GPS and Glonass support for accurate positioning outdoors - Visual positioning system for stability when flying indoors or without GPS (below 2.5 meters/8 feet) As far as I can tell, the Xiaomi Mi is closer in spec to the Phantom 3 Professional not the 4K. Xiaomi Mi vs Phantom 3 4K: 3km range vs 1.2km 27min vs 25min flight time 720P vs 480P live feed I also like the carbon fibre build of the Mi vs the Phantom's plastic construction. As well as being sealed, the camera/gimbal design also look more robust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradbellick Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 You can watch the live stream from Hugo Barra if you want to know more about it: It's pretty interesting. By the way, if any of you guys is interested in the $499 price tag, at Geekbuying you can leave your email to have it at that price, or maybe less with a coupon? I'm not sure about that.
