DJI is continuing to expand its horizons into the pro market with the new Spreading Wings S900.
The S900 is basically completely collapsible. The it’s six carbon fibre arms fold down for storage, and the landing gear retracts during flight, so that the aircraft is streamlined at all times. (This also keeps the landing gear out of the camera’s line of sight.) DJI also pulled off a tough task by making the drone lighter than its predecessor, the S800, while increasing the payload capacity to over 10 pounds. That makes it robust enough to haul a Canon 5D, but light enough to carry with one hand.
DJI hasn’t announced the price point, yet, but you can expect it won’t be cheap. Comparable drones with retractable landing gear sell for about $4,000.
