The government will pay for it so it'll be free. And I can't believe a USS subscription will only be 2.50 a month. But if, I can live with 30 a year. Oh, and a new cellular capable iPad and cellular carrier and...?

I agree with him 100% and this was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the proposal. This is to open the sky for commercial use, BVLOS, night flights, exedra. Most commercial flights will be automated and this system will allow drones to see other drones. Local law enforcement agencies...

It's not like when I was a kid. Not enough cornfields around anymore. When I shoot a sunset I usually go up to about 200 feet and that's what altitude this shot was taken at. I eventually followed them up to 340 feet.

Sunset surprise. It happened so fast I wish I would have had time to up the shutter speed. The best shot would have been a video straight up of the drone being engulfed by the starlings.

I don't expect a lot of love for this product on a mavic form. But competition is good for the consumer. I expect the mavic 3 to look a lot like this with a interchangeable camera gimbal system. I wouldn't expect to see 8 K on a mavic for years though. After all the Phantom has been...

One thing DJI has had going for it was their range. If this hypothetical distance is even close it blows DJI out the water. It's about time an America based China owned company steps up. Will have to wait and see what the price point will be. And yes, geofencing is a pain. The red runway...

That's Big Powderhorn just outside of Bessemer.

Did it snow already?

Now I know why DJI just came out with an action camera, less headaches. Tends already show that the money will be in the commercial market in the future, which overtime will become less restricted. There is gold in them there skies and hobbyists are just in the way. Don't forget to upgrade when...

I guess it makes sense for DJI to come out with the camera to go with their gimbal. But if you have to pair it up with the gimbal for image stabilization it won't come close to competing with go pro. I'm sure the camera will have Hasselblad's name on it which will make it even more expensive.

Thank God, finally. An action camera more overpriced then the GoPro. If they match or surpass gopro's specs plus a one inch sensor they might have something. But I believe this market is already saturated.

I've read that rain X on the props works also. But I haven't tried or tested this.
