In general I agree with this. I have owned both the V1 and the v2 and for my purposes they are basically equal. However this is a drone being purchased for a business with a budget cap of $5000. It can be written off over a few years for the tax benefit plus other advantages:
1. You can still find new in box
Phantom 4 Pro V2. This will give the purchaser a warranty and the chance to get the Care insurance.
2. Because the V2 is just being discontinued now the batteries almost automatically will be newer than a purchased V1 and no older than 2018.
3. The V2 is Ocusync and has a superior two way transmission signal that is less prone to interference.
4. Improved ESC and stock props for more power and a little more flight time. You can buy the new props but the V2 will come with them in the box.
