Chinese drone-maker DJI on Tuesday launched the DJI Flip, a foldable drone equipped with a 1/1.3-inch image sensor capable of shooting 4K/60fps HDR videos. Weighing under 249 grams, the foldable model features a protective cover, 31-minute flight time, AI smart tracking, and hand-launch capability without a remote. Why it matters: The DJI Flip combines portability, advanced imaging, and AI technology, making it an accessible tool for vloggers and hobbyists seeking aerial footage with minimal effort. The DJI Flip is DJI’s first aerial drone featuring a foldable, fully enclosed propeller guard. Equipped with AI-powered smart tracking, the DJI Flip can keep subjects centered automatically.
