Overview

At $1,400 in China, this is the price revolution, a biped light enough to let loose in a living room. But there's no official US channel, gray-market sellers charge 3×+, and the EDU tier needed for real control climbs past $12k. Specs also differ between sources. Worth watching for a US launch.
