Instead of DJI struggling to come up with something cool, why not just copy Skydio who has already mastered this launch and landing both on the ground and by hand. I know people aren't going to want to hear this but there's no shame in implementing a superior method that millions can benefit...

Saw this banner; clicked on it. Hey, I'll get one, thanks for advertising it. Then I see this on Amazon.com; no Prime, look at that ship date. Yikes! Pass.

I have an opinion and I'll continue to express it, comrade.

I don't hate Ali and I have been known to buy from them in the past, same with Temu. Ok for little things, inexpensive stuff; no worries.

You can take the mask off once the drone is launched. Just put it back on upon landing and you're good to go. Besides, who's going to see you all the way out there.... ;) Thanks Nano Banana.

I would start with a kevlar face mask and a wind meter for speed and direction. And M4P freak accident will do some serious damage.

Yep, they said there is a new process and they did away with everything completely except one request form you can fill out. So it's not a 100% absolutely NO which would get them sued but they pulled the old trick....use this form and we'll say NO (if you choose the wrong reason).

Not asking to allow states to make all the rules and the federal government stay out. I am suggesting the federal government step in when the states get out of line. This EO pretty much says "states, stay out it; it's our job, we'll decide." But it's not and yes I believe in uniformity and...

Does anyone see a problem with this? Do you want the federal government to be the sole decision-maker on how AI is implemented across the country including in your drones? This works both ways. If the WH says "No AI in drones....prohibited" are you ok with the decision that doesn't go your...

I saw that, along with all the Mini 5 Pro drones popping up there for super low prices. It's AliExpress, someone has to take one for the team. You don't know until you know. Sorry I can't help, I paid a little more and dealt with someone safer on eBay but this one you gotta give it some time...

Well, I have to ask, what do you think would happen to me if I were flying my DJI Mini toy and I hit a power line and it fell to the ground and on the way down, it struck a child sending him to the hospital?

Funny how when big drones crash, they're treated like airplane crashes (investigations, administrative actions, root cause, analysis, findings, recommended changes) but when small harmless drones crash (outrage, arrests, charges, criminal prosecutions, lawsuits, new restrictions). Of course I...

Yes, address please. And then post the link (method) so we know this information is available to "everyone." I would really love to have access to such a database, it would come in handy for me sometimes. Thanks.

I'm sure others will chime in with their thoughts and opinions on the topic but the Amazon page is quite confusing if you don't know what you are looking at. Even I don't know all the ins and outs so I find the forum helpful as well. In the end, I appreciate the ease and the...
