BH Photo has this drone in stock. With one of their payboo credit cards I pay no sales tax on my purchases from them. Always new product being sold and returns could not be easier.

I buy my photo gear from BH Photo Video. With my payboo credit card I pay no sales tax. BH has employees that have been with them for 30 years or longer, unlike Amazon that treats its employees like so many worker drones. I can process a return with BH even when they are closed as they have a...

No mention that the ranchers are getting a free ride with having their cattle on public lands. These folks don't like socialism except when it benefits them.

I live in a "urban" area and next to a marine reserve and the minimum AGL for planes is 1000 feet but 99% of the aircraft passing overhead are below 500 feet with an AGL of 200 to 400 feet. There is no way for the FAA to enforce its regs.

DJI as both the manufacturer and having a U.S. corporation as the importer is able to show a much lower value on shipments coming into the USA. The oil companies have been doing this for many years and showing on paper that they are actually losing money on the oil imports. This is a good...

USB4 is supported only by Asus Windows computers and so for fast data throughput Apple Thunderbolt ports are going to be much faster. Newer Wintel computers are being offered which have much faster Ethernet ports but not with motherboard support for USB4. The "gaming" computers provide the...

Tariffs are collected by U.S. Customs on shipments arriving at U.S. ports and before releasing the product for shipping to a destination in the USA. The entity importing the products pays the tariffs. The problem is that from one day to the next the importer does not know what the Trump tariff...

BH Photo Video has them in stock from time to time and the best approach is to order one by phone which puts you at the top of the list when ones arrive. In the past they have taken phone orders for items that could not be ordered from their website without inventory on hand. They also have a...

I would first determine on whose property the tree is located and get their permission to retrieve the drone. When you get permission I would then phone a local arborist to find one who is willing to climb the tree. The arborist will have insurance and so you are protected should they injure...

Thomas C. Fugate, a 22-year-old University of Texas at San Antonio graduate, was recently appointed by the Trump administration to lead the Department of Homeland Security’s Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships, the agency’s flagship office for countering domestic violent extremism...

The mistake is to assume that the people in charge have the intelligence and the integrity to make these assertions. Anyone who was around after 9-11 will realize that the people managing the NSA and the CIA are grossly incompetent and completely lacking in personal integrity. The real...

What is ignored by our corrupt corporate media is that enacting tariffs is to be done by Congress and not someone in the executive branch. I have dealt with tariffs for the past 15 years with my company and the Harmonized Tariff Schedule was changed once each year and not on a daily basis as it...

I do envy those living in a democracy where they can buy what they want and travel where they want and do not have to deal with laws created by far right religious zealots. During the Vietnam War I was one number away from being drafted and having to move to Canada. In retrospect I should have...

It is not simply needing to crop more with a 24mm lens as it also reduces the amount of image magnification and alters the perspective with subjects in the frame. I would expect DJI to be selecting the lens based on the end users in the market segment for a pro level drone. The president's...

If one is buying from a U.S. retailer then the tariff is paid by the importing entity which can decide whether to pass that along to the reseller. DJI wants to protect its market dominance with commercial and recreational drones and has more options for responding to the Trump tax for U.S...
