Introducing DJI FPV - Release Videos
With “Introducing DJI FPV” and “Redefine Flying”, DJI has released two videos to mark the launch of the new drone. I have embedded these for you in the following.
DJI FPV Combo - scope of delivery of the drone
The DJI FPV Combo, the standard package of this new drone offer, brings everything you need to take off. Of course, it is advisable to buy additional batteries for a longer flight time. But with the standard scope of delivery you are already well equipped:

- 1 x DJI FPV remote control 2 (two-hand controller)

DJI FPV price - This is what the new drone will cost in 2021
What does the DJI FPV cost in the package described above? I can tell you: 1.349 euros. Of course, it should be noted that it is a device combination that is ready to fly. The drone, control unit and VR glasses are included in the combo package, so you can get started right away. It may only be that you still have to charge one or the other battery or the controller. But then it can really start. If the DJI FPV Combo at a price of 1.349 euros is not enough for you, then take a look at the accessories under the next subheading;)
DJI FPV Accessories - Motion Control Unit, Fly More Set and more
On the official DJI's shop page In addition to the package described above, with which you can theoretically take off immediately, you get a lot of accessories. I have listed the most important things here:
- DJI FPV Intelligent Flight Battery: Additional battery for another 20 minutes of flight fun (149 €)
- DJI FPV Fly More Set: Two batteries for another 40 minutes and a battery charging station (€ 279)
- DJI motion control unit: one-hand controller with motion control (149 €)
- SanDisk Extreme 128GB microSD card: memory card for drone or goggles (29 €)
- DJI Care Refresh: Protection package for replacement devices in the event of damage (price depending on the contract)
New DJI drone for first person view and video recording
There is space for a microSD memory card both in the drone itself and in the goggles. DJI recommends a maximum capacity of 256 GB. If you use such a memory card, then you can not only experience the (more or less) wild flight in real time, but also record it. So you can present your flying skills to others, edit the video material or incorporate it into a larger video project. Further details as well as an FAQ, in which frequently asked questions get an answer, can be found on the already linked shop page of DJI. Have fun!
