Motors look shorter, but kinda looks like the e1200 propulsion.

E2000's actually

I am pretty sure it carries 6 batteries.

Correct

I am pretty sure it carries 6 batteries.

I saw that it uses multiple batteries but does it require multiple batteries?

If 6 batteries of about 100WHr are required for a 15-35 minute flight how many batteries would one need for an extended shooting session -- 60 -- more?

So, lets say $125 each times 60 and the batteries alone would be like $7.5K.

Perhaps DJI thinks they're in the razor blade business...

At least 24-30 batteries for sure.

Alright Damon, be honest, when are you going to order one?

Honestly, no plans right now. I like my current rig

Very very soon.

Do they mention if it can fly with a motor out at max payload? (e.g. Red Epic?), nice machine for $6K

Nope don't mention that.
Should be good 12 minutes it's a short heavy flight.

well i guess it does
up to 3 motors loss

Thats awesome, they finally implemented the spinning to keep it in the air. That flight controller looks promising

That is an incredible piece of kit. The A3 looks amazing with it's triple redundancy.

And wouldn't surprise if it gets handicapped by the Nanny NFZ's .......... DJI seem hell bent on invoking these now on new roll outs. To date, it hasn't been on the A2 but there has been no offerings from them in that field up until the A3. The newest was the NCore in the Inspire and that has shackles on so the A3 may be knobbled as well........

 

[seanmclean]

I'm impressed at the real redundancy in the A3, maybe the P4 guys will realize how gimmicky their dual-compass is.

 

[rilot]

Dual anything is useless for data consistency checking. How do you know which one is right? You need 3 for it to be of any use.

+ some chargers...

Wow I cant wait to see how much of this tech trickles down to the next major version of the inspire (or whatever comes next I certainly hope the next Inspire-like unit they have has 6 motors so it can be combined with this killer tech.

The question is how do you land with that spin?
Home lock mode starts the spin id like to see how it stops
