We already have some solid news about
some of the new feature of the new 2
coming from photos, FCC filing, and
articles from reliable leakers.
The new model takes aerial videography
and photography very seriously. It will
apparently be equipped with a one over
1.3 in SIMOS sensor with a video
resolution of 4K up to 30 frame per
second.
13.5 stops of dynamic range,
support for true HDR,
and the second 10 bit color profile,
DLOG M.
Very serious specs, practically the same
as the Flip.
It seems that the camera will be the
same as the more expensive Avata 2,
which makes sense from the point of view
of manufacturing costs.
A new 1606 mAh battery, 12% larger than
the previous one, should extend the
flight time to over 20 minutes. Another
crucial upgrade.
A slot for a memory card will likely be
added to the new model, something
surprisingly missing on the original
Neo.
There are also rumors of an improvement
on the signal transmission to a level
similar to the Flip.
This will be apparently achieved by an
add-on module to be applied when using a
remote controller.
From one of the leaked images, we notice
obstacle avoidance sensors at the front
and at the top of the aircraft for a
possible omnidirectional obstacle
avoidance system.
A rock steady stabilization feature
should address the issue of shaky
footage.
Some of the leaked image show double
layered propeller guards for extra
safety.
