DJI Phantom 2 Vision hands-on | Engadget

DJI Phantom 2 Vision hands-on. The Phantom 2 Vision gives you a taste of the advanced maneuverability and camera features from DJI's pro-level products. The relatively light 1.16kg drone features a built-in 14-megapixel camera (with a 1/2.3-inch sensor), which is mounted on a tilt-axis gimbal under the belly. The only bits that need to be installed are the four self-tightening propellers, along with a swappable 57.72Wh battery that lasts up to 25 minutes (but takes from one to two hours to fully charge when depleted).

Pft the price tag ain't stopping vision flying off the shelves in the States! There is a 3 week wait in most online certified dealers in the US! I had to buy mine from a online merchant in Hong Kong lol! And just not giving out the retailers name, they are actually well trusted! :)
