Possible marketing info? Can anyone here translate this?

I agree with everything you said. He also gets credit for a fake picture on the Mavic Pro II. He has lied about products being in production, and some others.
I love every one of his 'leaks'. I hope he is much more right than wrong, but outside of the entertainment value (which I enjoy) I will believe it when I hear it from DJI.

He's gone on record to say that he's not an insider and a lot of his sketches and what some considered as "leaks" are just his own concept and guesstimates. He does appear to be working in the film industry in China and has friends working close with (or within) DJI. People need to stop busting his balls about his MP2 predictions and realize that he's probably the best English speaking enthusiast we westerners have in China.

Looks like some nice incremental upgrades on props, motors and obstacle avoidance, but no change to the camera.

This is cool if your in the market for a Phantom, but if you already have a P4P it's kinda of moot. Just not enough for me to throw out another $1500. Personally, I'll sit this one out and wait for a proper predecessor... feels strange saying that as a proper DJI "fanboi".

I think everyone can make an educated guess, DJI is just waiting to release the P5. More then likely,
waiting for the competition to release there new model, first. Just saying...

Will we be able to buy and install these new propellers on the P4P?

Yes, their compatiable. We’ll probably need a firmware update if it’s anything like the Mavic Pro and the 8331’s. They are listed in the store already, but as out of stock, much like the 8331’s were.

They are listed in the DJI Store here. The listing shows they are also compatible with the P4P and P4A.

Says noise reduction not as much on the P4P wonder why? Also those pointed tips will hurt if you get your skin in the way!

OldBlueHeron · May 8, 2018

Yes, but can I get them in obsidian man?

Version 2.0 has different ESC’s which actually provide the bulk of the quieter performance.

Per the P4P V2 FAQ:

"The Phantom 4 Pro V2.0 also features an upgraded propulsion system with FOC sinusoidal driver ESCs and 9455S quick-release propellers that reduce noise and make the drone more aerodynamic."

Your starting to convince me to order one of these...hahaha

Wonder what this means for the P5? Christmas or another year?

msinger · May 8, 2018

Not sure. DJI could probably continue dominating with the P4P V2 for quite some time if they wanted to.

They could have done that with Version 1.0...

Yep! It's been going strong for over a year already.

What competition ?

The biggest difference I noticeed was the Ocusync in the V2 vs Lightbridge in the P4P but both still have a listed range of 4.3 miles ,I believe at least one of the Mavics have Ocusync does anyone know if its a big improvement over the old P4P ?
