DJI S1000, S1000 Premium and S1000+

Can anybody shed some light on the difference between the above...  The S1000+ is £1000 cheaper than the S1000 premium.  I cant find any definative answer....

Neither can i, just looked at the two, and the only difference in that adverts i looked at, one said the word "+ Wookong" and one said "+ WKM"

other than that, i could see no difference

It';s a bit strange isn';t it.

Cost reduction for the S1000+ ... Some of its parts are high strength plastic instead of aluminium alloy as per the Premium, and it has a new wiring hub.
So the hub is an improvement and the plastic perhaps not. does that make it a "plus" or just a mkII.

Ahhh. Cheers for that info. So basically, you would be mad to buy the original 1000 now at £1000 more expensive.
I agree, surely it should be named differently.
Think I will need to see both in the flesh before I make a decision.

some of the descriptions on some stores need to actually state that lol, thats a big difference in cost. for effectively the same machine though.

I just spoke to firstpersonview and they have confirmed the above. Also top plate can be removed for easy access to fc etc. Improved escs and motors. I also asked why would anybody want to buy the premium. They said no idea now. But theyve not heard whether dji intend to discontinue the premium or not.
