DJI Snail
Another thing I didn’t see coming, DJI must believe FPV racing will be a thing. Yes, they recently opened a track but now the hardware starts to land. Nearly all of an FPV racers advantage comes from the propulsion system and that’s what DJI just released.
If it’s any quicker than other setups I couldn’t say. What interests me is that it completes DJI offerings.
They can now sell you equipment to help you from fun to financial.
This announcement is somewhat trickling out ahead of today’s main show, the Mavic launch in New York.
Maybe a racer will make it to the party as well. Who will DJI have chosen to fly it and promote the brand?
