Sooo after a daily countdown to an announcement over recent days Parrot announced the Anafi folding 4K HDR drone at £629
What do people think? Anybody thinking of picking one up?

Seems to fold up nicely.
With 180 tilt, 360-panos should be complete on top. (Expect Hangar will have their logo there, though, if they decide to support.)
Not for me, tho … well, not until I’ve seen what the MP2 is all about, and decided if I’ve upgrading, that is.

Interesting…
I thought Parrot were stepping out of the drone game along with GoPro.
The 180 tilt camera is a good idea, but perhaps just a novelty?
Looks ok guess, but it’s not for me…

The footage I have seen in the early video reviews unfortunately doesn’t look much different than the Mavic, such a shame if this is true as it’s really time for an affordable, portable drone with a really great camera. And this is almost the same weight as the Spark.
However I am very open to having my mind changed!
I did like the look of it but gonna stay with th MP for a while before getting another

Based on a very quick look, camera mount looks very vulnerable and I couldn’t see anything about sensors, forward or rear. Like the photo/videos specs. Seems Parrot are out to challenge the Mavics - not necessarily a good idea to poke the sleeping giant - or dragon - though. 
Coming from the Phantom 2 era, sensors aren’t something I give a lot of priority to.
Ditto! Far more important! …. if financial realistic.

Yeah no obstacle avoidance, but it’s great to see a DJI competitor really it keeps innovation going

Do you still have to pay to unlock certain features on the app?

Are the sensors on the M2 really that effective anyway?, I was under the impression their effectiveness was a bit hit and miss 
(pardon the pun 
)
Here’s the best example (that I know of) of “rescue by sensor” on the MP, and I can’t imagine the M2 is any less capable.

Ah thats not bad. I saw a video review where it was asking for $30.00 for ‘follow me’ mode.
when the anafi was first released they wanted17.99 for each mode but dropped price to 99p

I paid about £17.99 on IOS for flight plan with the Disco. Was well worth it though.
Going to see if it’s dropped on the Android version.
Edit - No such luck, £14.99, must just be Anafi.
if you want to see the photo quality check my facebook page just look for my name i have anafi shots on
just looked at the parrot app on google and in app purchases are still 99p

It’s Freeflight Pro that the Disco uses so probably a different app.
Was just when you said they had dropped the charges for Anafi it made me wonder if it might be the same across the parrot range.
