    How many drones should one keep?

    yeah, it's prohibitive for me to spend $5600 for a drone. I got a refurbished Mavic 3 FMC for $1649 about 2-3 years ago, IIRC. Bought 2 more batteries for $380....and a case for $80. That's $2109 for I know the Mavic 4 has a little better cameras, but that Mavic 3 sure generates great video and...

    Where can I buy an Air 3S in the US quickly?

    yeah, I missed that footnote about availability. 2-4 weeks can turn into 2-4 months then into unavailable

    DroneNerds --> Matrice 4E

    for sure....$5700 is a huge chunk of change to invest in a hobby. If somebody plans to use it in a business, then the price is relative....although then the option might be the Matrice 4T from everything I've read and seen, it sounds like the camera configuration on the Mavic 4 Pro is a little...

    No DJI drones anywhere???

    This morning Drone Nerds have DJI Matrice 4E and 4T available. Also have the DJI Neo; and the Matrice 30T Adorama has the Matrice 4D (with Care and without Care)

    DroneNerds --> Matrice 4E

    one or twice a week I will check DroneNerds & Adorama to see if they have any inventory of DJI drones. Usually not, and if either do, the window closes pretty fast this morning, at Drone Nerds, I see they have the Matrice 4E available for $5189 Matrice 4E: if you add a couple of batteries at...

    Can DJI Beat the U.S. Drone Ban? BY Timothy Brazzel.

    selling licenses is probably the most practical option. At least it would be the fastest way to get DJI tech to the USA markets. probably still have to deal with the idiot tariffs being slapped on imports

    Autelrobotics , fraud?

    living in the USA, I would only buy a drone from DJI, Drone Nerds, or Adorama. Even though I'm an Amazon Prime member, I'd be very cautious about buying a drone from Amazon

    Mavic 3/4 Pro Alternatives

    I almost always use my Mavic 3 but I have, every once in a while, flown my Mini 3 Pro and it still generates great video hard to justify spending over $6,000 for a drone upgrade I don't doubt what you are saying. I'm sure the M4 camera's are better than the M3. For my needs, the camera...

    DJI Mavic 4 Pro vs. DJI Mini 5 Pro

    I'd be pretty cautious & skeptical about those Mavic 4's supposedly available at Amazon. And the prices are ridiculous. Lot of scam reports Adorama has occasionally had Mavic 4's available but the availability is only about a day or two. Wednesday you could have got one shipped to you in 4...

    Mavic 3/4 Pro Alternatives

    yep....I have a 4K Samsung TV and the videos I've finalized from the MP3 look awesome in 4K. Every once in a while there is a minor artifact, but generally, it just great viewing. So, when the video looks awesome in 4K, it's hard to believe that it could be noticeably more awesome from the MP4

    DJI Mavic 4 Pro vs. DJI Mini 5 Pro

    I was always one of those people that was skeptical about all the 'things will be OK' assurances I worried about a death of a thousand cuts and was pretty sure there would be all sorts of roadblocks...not just Elise Stefanik posturing for trump. I know Vic Moss (and others) kept making posts...
