Hehe, in case I didn't make my point I agree with you. I believe in false flag type incidents and if it were just as easy to roll back regulations by citing an "incident" then friends of the FAA would have long since been dispatched to a controlled environment to "wreak havoc" and get the ball...

In the future, I'm pretty sure you can hear one of these at least a couple hundred feet away: https://viflydrone.com/collections/drone-buzzer

Thanks for posting, I got the lens as well...but haven't yet used it. Didn't exactly have a lot of choices to choose from since it seems like the lens guy at DJI quit just before launch (no DJI wide angle lens or eND.....).

Didn't they go back to the 5-mile rule (all recreational drones prohibited within 5 miles of *any* airport...period) because of this incident? Cancel LAANC? Because if this doesn't trigger more rules, I'm not sure what will.

These days it's called "If you see something, say something" renaming it as if that makes a difference; so it's quite common and acceptable for Americans to snitch on this friends and neighbors and often even their relatives. Russians and Chinese citizens take this as welcome news. I don't...

It's very confusing because the process changes from drone to drone and from controller to controller and even the goggles. DJI is all over the board and they don't do a good job of explaining it. There are two types of binding and while the binding related to Care Refresh is no longer...

Honestly, I think they are the same store. I would just pay $30 less and wait a few more days from China.....no one is charging tariffs. Item # 405329631528

^You can use the RC 2 to fly both the 4 and the 5 at the same time but thanks to DJI professional-grade connectivity process, you have to bind and unbind the drone + RC each and every time you switch over (within the limitations). Meaning if you take both drones out for 1 or 2 flights, you'll...

I don't think drones are always the problem. :oops:

Thanks for pointing that out; yeah that is pretty low I'd say. These are open box but unless they are super used, the price looks great. Maybe they found a massive stock of controllers tucked away in a Chinese warehouse and need to get rid of these? We can't get our remotes repaired here in...

I think you hit it right on the head. Write to you representative and let them know how you are adversely affected by the decision. That's a little bit different than writing a support letter to the government claiming they don't have any evidence that China is spying on the US thru drones and...

Me too. 🍿

Yep. I remember blizzards weekly living in MN winter by the time I left there, you were lucky to get more than an average snowfall and you could no longer drive your car out on the lake.

I hope it is correct as well and I wish this would all go away. Someone suggested the Dec 23 deadline will just come and go and nothing will be done (except no new FCC approvals)....that's not sustainable. The drone community cannot work under those conditions. It's not ideal if "nothing ever...

No thanks, not appropriate here to go any further than just my opinion. Meet me over in the Freedom forum and we can discuss it thoroughly if you wish.
