(Pocket-lint) – It looks a lot like DJI is preparing to launch a new drone. In fact, if an early unboxing video is anything to go by, we’re going to see a new category of DJI drone. In the video we see a drone that’s designed, first and foremost to be used using FPV goggles as the monitor. In fact, the combo pack unboxed features those goggles which seem to feature antenna, undoubtely to ensure a reliable connection over distance.

(Pocket-lint) – DJI has unveiled a brand new drone, and unlike its previous consumer models, this one is designed to be used primarily through the company’s FPV goggles. It even says it in the name, it’s the DJI FPV.  That means rather than strap your phone to the controller to use your phone as a screen, you strap the FPV goggles and see the camera feed directly through that, flying ‘on the nose’.  Its design is radically different to any of the Mavic series too. The camera is placed higher up in the front of the nose, while the arms…

(Pocket-lint) – A yet-be-announced DJI drone, called the Air 2S, has leaked online via a slew of images posted by TechnikNews and leaker Roland Quandt. These leaks follow a US Federal Communications Commission filing from last month, all of which suggests a launch is imminent. The DJI Air 2S will likely be an update to last year’s Mavic Air 2. It’s thought to feature an improved camera and compatibility with DJI’s new accessories, like the V2 Goggles and Motion Controller.
