    Lost another drone

    DJI lost on jurisdiction and forced arbitration and then folded. But DJI was facing a blinded boy with potentially millions in damages. They were just banned selling in the USA and this case was set for jury trial in Texas. The place where everything is bigger including personal injury verdicts.

    Lost another drone

    Coincidentally, It looks like DJI settled the case four days ago.

    Lost another drone

    Sure you can. But it would be very difficult, time consuming, and massively expensive for a very small dispute that you could lose a dozen different ways. There is a case that shows how aggressively DJI defends lawsuits and will throw out every possible argument to derail you. For example, look...

    Safer Skies Act signed into Law.

    Yes a knee jerk reaction to an orchestrated event. My theory is that many well intentioned state and local officials were manipulated. There was no other way to effectuate such massive regulatory and legal change overnight.

    eBay and the FCC covered list

    This is a real informative but shocking video. A ban down to the sale of component parts including batteries. Good grief. Brutal indeed.

    Can one controller (RC2) control two drones?

    Let us say you have two drones and two controllers, an RC 2 and NC 3. You want to have both controllers bound to both drones so you have back up in case one fails or is lost. I am getting the impression that you cannot do that. I get a message saying you either get 4 more flights on this...

    Can one controller (RC2) control two drones?

    Yes it is an activation issue but the opposite of what I expected. I started with a Mini 4 and RC 2 which worked perfect. I then bought a Mini 5 and bound and connected it to the RC 2. I used the RC 2 to fly both drones. I could connect to both drones. I could also swap and use the NC 3 with...

    Can one controller (RC2) control two drones?

    I had a Mini 4 bound to its own RC 2 remote. I decided to buy a Mini 5 but thought I would save on the bundle by getting NC 3 instead of a second RC 2 and then I have a back up controller. Mini 5 bound to the RC 2 no problem. Now Mini 4 is limited to four more flights on either controller. I...

    We've likely created a small industry for reselling drones in South Korea

    I am not 100% certain the point in dispute but the thread has been very informative and prompted me to shop very carefully for the exact Mini 5 combo package to get. So thank you. I ended up getting the cheapest (3 regular batts and RC N3) which saved a little money but in hindsight as someone...

    What is Drone Takeover Technology? (By Timothy Brazzel)

    Remote ID is what made drone takeover possible. Without Remote ID it would violate federal law.
