DJI Matrice 100 experts anyone?

[Allyson Jenkins]

I'm planning to pour in all my 2015 savings onto buying DJI matrice developer quadcopter : http://www.cannykart.com/product/dji-matrice-100-quadcopter/

Whats your opinion on it? Has anyone tried using DJI Matrice 100?

Are you wanting to play with the sdk? I thought about it, but I know I could build something similar for much less that would fly just as good.

I tried that option of going all DIY. I'm trying to integrate Arducopter into DJI Matrice and create a sort of Auto Pilot with UV sensors to avoid collisions. I shall be posting about it very soon.

Cool. I know intel is coming out with some interesting collision avoidance hardware too. There is a demo of the Yuneec Typhoon H flying through trees. Pretty amazing to watch if you can find it. I will try to locate it.
