Are you sure that's the verb you wanted? If so, they must have been very impressed with the video.

Well, I am from the USA and I see no code or even a hint in that article and letter that causes me to be afraid. And it's absurd and condescending to say that anyone from another country is incapable of reading and understanding it. The letter you fear is from a "Red Scare" group (Select...

I agree that the VPS system "seeing" the fog or cloud was the issue. Here's an interesting question about that sort of situation. What happens if you hold the left stick full back and allow the drone to enter the landing mode and descend into the fog/cloud? I suspect that it would continue to...

This has nothing to do with the President and I'm not posing an argument. I just object to spreading fear without cause. The suggestion that citizens should avoid expressing opinions and even avoid writing or calling their elected representatives out of fear of being punished is absurd, even...

You'll have no problem.

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

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.

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.

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...

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.

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.

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

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.)

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...

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...
