Logged in to my order to see the status and was greeted by this message. Looks like a bit of a back up of orders...

That is a strangely worded message.
It does not confirm that they have started shipping on schedule
And if they haven't, then why not.
The fact that they have received lots of orders is a reason for not fulfilling later orders, but not a reason for delaying shipment of the first ones......

Kinda got the idea that they waited to see if there were any orders before production began. But, the first ones completed should be flying by now. Strange.

Not giving a new date. Looks like they haven't got a clue.
Maybe they don't want any cancellations.

Lots of speculation, but people claim to have tracking numbers on their orders starting today.... lots of chat about it on the MAVIC forum here:
Pre-order and Shipping Times - Who Will Get the Mavic First?

and here:
Newegg tracking showing invalid today, invoice still shows shipped???

i read on the verge last night that it sounds like they havnt even ramped up production yet and have no stock to ship. not sure how true that is...

Looks like a rush to steal Karma sales by selling on speculation (i.e. pre-production).

Best Buy now shows delivery November 30, 2016. Apple Store told me Dec.16th.

Seems the wait may drag out. Rumor is the Inspire 2 was to be announced around Nov. 8 too, but who knows when it will show up? 2017?

Looking for cracks or suspicious clues in the DJI wording is a bit unusual. It's a popular product and yes I'm sure demand has exceeded their expectation. It's not going to be a Lily disaster so just be patient.

They're already shipping. Kingdad1985 said he received his on the 25th.

Lost Signal twice

My neighbor just got his Mavic and I was able to see it in person this afternoon! What an awesome piece of technology compared to the Phantom 3 that i currently own.
