According to some latest news, the DJI Flip might be getting ready for its launch soon. However, it seems like the Flip is just one of the many drones DJI is working on. For example, there are hints that the Mavic 4 and Mavic 4 Pro could be coming out in the next few months as well.
Mini Series Update
Moreover, there are whispers about a new Mini series drone being developed by DJI. To give some background, the Mini 4 Pro has been around for over two years now, and the more affordable Mini 4K was released just this past spring. Due to this timeline, Jasper Ellens thinks that we won't see a fifth-generation model just yet.
Instead, he expects the DJI Mini 5 to make its first appearance next summer, which starts on June 21, 2025. Nonetheless, both Ellens and OsitaLV seem to have received the same picture of a Mini 5 or Mini 5 Pro prototype. From the single image that's been shared, it looks like DJI has added two new front-facing obstacle sensing sensors, placed between the cameras on the Mini 4 Pro (currently priced at $999.99 on Amazon).
Sensor and Motor Enhancements
Reports indicate that these could be LiDAR sensors, possibly similar to those already used in the Air 3S by DJI. Furthermore, Ellens believes that the Mini 5 series will come equipped with ventilated motors that are more powerful compared to those in the Mini 4 Pro. Allegedly, DJI has achieved these improvements while keeping the weight under the official limit of 249 g.
