    Pro DJI Mini 5 Pro When You Ignore the Power Lines

    Why not just change the global speed setting to a low value for the test run?

    Tariff charging is getting worse

    Well, then. May I suggest you put cats and dogs on your menu instead. The tariff guy says it's a common thing in Ohio.

    Buying new Neo2 in USA ideas/options

    DJI cannot conduct the audit. It must be done by one of several US government entities. But Congress assigned no responsibility, so no one seems to be doing it.

    Buying new Neo2 in USA ideas/options

    Have a look at the NeoPilots.com forum. There are number of folks there who feel confident enough to have bought Neo 2s, myself included. The December 23 deadline is not about agreement between DJI and the US government. Our Congress created a requirement that a security audit be done by that...

    Tariff charging is getting worse

    The problem is that the President stated plainly and repeatedly (and falsely) that other nations paid the tariffs and brags about the amount that has been collected from China.

    Mini 5 PRO for business?

    I don't see much utility associated with the Cine version, especially for the cost difference. Having a lot of on-board storage has little value in typical real estate photography.

    "There is no DJI ban." Let's call it a restriction.

    More imagined government injustices stoking fear and paranoia. "And it spreads from there; no thank you." Well said.

    For US Pilots only… If you have a Part 107 Certification, do you need a TRUST Certificate to fly Recreationally?

    You're right. See my edit in post #24. It's an oddity in the regs. (I do have a TRUST certificate, by the way.)

    For US Pilots only… If you have a Part 107 Certification, do you need a TRUST Certificate to fly Recreationally?

    What prohibits a Part 107 pilot from flying a sub-0.55 pound drone for recreation? Are you suggesting that I was in violation as a Part 107 pilot for flying an unregistered Neo 2 for fun this afternoon? EDIT: I'll answer my own question. @SoaringBison is correct. There's a quirk in the...

    For US Pilots only… If you have a Part 107 Certification, do you need a TRUST Certificate to fly Recreationally?

    You're correct about TRUST not being required for Part 107 pilots flying recreationally and outside the exception in Section 44809. I've clarified the earlier post to read "TRUST required for all recreational flights under Section 44809." I don't see an FAA statement specifically stating that...

    Specifics, please, rather than vague generalities.

    "There is no DJI ban." Let's call it a restriction.

    If you fear a DJI ban, shutdown of DJI software and firmware updates, blocking of DJI drones operating in the US, or any of the other sky-is-falling rumors of pending disaster, watch and assimilate this video. Thank you to Vic Moss for an informed, reasoned, and rational assessment of the...

    DJI Mini 5 Pro question

    The drone I purchased from a South Korean seller identified it as exactly what it was on the customs declaration.
