DOWNSIDES AND GOTCHAS

12:51 - Cost (discussed previously). Size and weight?

13:47 - Micro quads mean that analog video is definitely not dead yet!

14:17 - DJI's biggest misstep: leaving out an analog receiver.

15:42 - DJI supports only up to 4S. Does not support 5S and 6S natively.

16:02 - The fit of the goggles is awful. Also, glasses-wearers will have to wear goggles over their glasses.
