    DJI OUT OF BUSINESS for selling Mini 4 Pro in USA !!!!

    No, DJI did . Autel shipped their inventory to the US ahead of the tariffs. Order Autel, and it will be in the States and clear of customs at its original price. DJI could have shipped stockpile units to the US in January too.

    Autel robotics thermal drone, any good?

    we own 50 Autels and 30ish DJIs; both are workhorses. I would compare them to Chevys: Autel is solid and will get the job done, and DJI is the Cadillac, the same vehicle with leather seats.

    DJI OUT OF BUSINESS for selling Mini 4 Pro in USA !!!!

    Holy ****…34% tariffs on imports from China

    Big picture… the US has to refinance the national debt this June. Stock Market uncertainty drives money into Treasury Bonds which drives down the bond rate. In turn making it cheaper to refinance.

    Is a DJI Mavic 2 Pro a dodo

    I have had several inquiries about purchasing batteries and drones. We have deprecated them as a Capital Expense over 5 years, and they now have no economic value. IRS would not allow the sale. All our drones have a 5-year lifespan and are then replaced. We drill out the HD, and a vendor signs...

    best airline to take a drone on?

    The backpack went through the scanner without any questions asked. After that, the airline has no idea what is in the bag.

    The M2 has entered End of Support, so it is technically obsolete. No longer receiving No-Fly-Zone updates could be construed as an unsafe aircraft. Currently, we are recycling out about 6 drones and 40 batteries.
