What is DJI Flip

DJI Flip Overview

The DJI Flip drone is a drone for beginners/Vloggers released by DJI on January 14, 2025 at 9:00AM (10:00PM Japan time). It has fully guarded propellers like the DJI Neo , easy-to-operate features for beginners such as voice control, and video recording capabilities up to 4K/100fps like the DJI Mini 4 Pro . Take off and shoot from the palm of your hand without a remote control. Use the one-tap control button to instantly launch quick flight options such as Dronie, Circle, Rocket, Spotlight, Helix, and Boomerang.

The most distinctive feature of the DJI Flip is the foldable full-cover propeller guard, which has never been seen in any DJI product before.
However, because the takeoff weight exceeds 100g, it is subject to regulations under the Aviation Act in Japan and there are only limited locations where it can be flown without application, so unfortunately it is not suitable for beginners/Vloggers. In Japan, it is a half-baked product that only fits a limited number of users, like the DJI Neo .

Information leaked before release

(January 14, 2025) It was announced as rumored.
(January 11, 2025) Tether Ad has been released. As per the leaked information, it will be released on January 14, 2025.
(December 13, 2024) Release date and price information has been leaked. The "drone only" package will cost 439 euros (approx. USD 460/JPY 70,000), with the RC2 remote controller included it will cost 639 euros (approx. USD 670/JPY 102,000), and the Fly More Combo will cost around 779 euros (approx. USD 800/JPY 122,000). It may be released in the EU and North America on January 14, 2025.
(December 7, 2024) It seems that new product information named DJI Flip has been released in the FCC database. Like the HoverAir X1, it has a propeller guard that folds downward, and when folded, it is small enough to fit in a pocket. It also has a camera with a 3-axis gimbal, landing support function, obstacle avoidance function using LiDAR, and image transfer using OcuSync4 (O4). It may be released as early as January 2025. However, according to the released label, the DJI Flip will be equipped with a 3,110mAh battery, which is larger than the Mini 4 Pro and Mini 3. It seems that the takeoff weight will exceed 100g this time as well. It looks like it will be a product that complements the DJI Mini series and DJI Neo.
