The E-Bay drone jumped up and was too expensive. Still looking for a Air 2S body!! Thank you.

Thanks for all your great work clackey!!!

Thank you for the suggestion. I do have a bid in on E-Bay through Auction Sniper... see how that goes. Ends Friday. I used to get replacements from that guy at Thunderdrones but it appears he's, um, on "hiatus" at the moment. So trying the folks here. I've always had good dealings with the...

Looking really for an Air 2S body only. The epoxy finally gave way on my beloved Air 2S but I have everything I need to make a new addition fly. If you have a drone and batts might consider but really just need a working body.

Classic response. I put one in the water by accident landing on a boat. Ya gotta be careful out there. Everything is moving. If you're good at hand catching, go for it. But I do have a friend who lost part of a nose when a wave hit the boat and he got clipped.

As near as I can tell they have re-structured their shipping. Maybe it has to do with the supposed Customs problems. However, DJI has always shipped to me in Guam using DHL. Couriers consider Guam a country (so they can charge more as near as I can tell) so it goes China-HK-Incheon-Guam usually...

I am having trouble to get them to just ship it. Ordered from their website. Never had trouble before since 2017. I want to use the DJI site as I have $52 in credits and want those applied. That was Dec 7. Two days ago I get this: ---- Hope this email finds you well. We appreciate the time you...

I have two Air 2S drones and both have had the problem you describe. Might have something to do with the screw that holds on the plate loosening over time. I have used plastic expoxy in not the fanciest but in an effective way on both and they fly well.

Just FYI, my 3S bird seems to have gotten through everything from Shenzen to DC so far with delivery due in the morning. Hope everyone else has the same experience.

Just got this from DHL on my 3S shipment of one kit. However, the delivery date hasn't changed and it is already through Los Angeles. So we'll see. Perhaps the "ban" is more for big order wholesalers? Get out the popcorn. Ship From: Ship To: CN US EVENT CATEGORY 18 Oct 24 1:42 AM -...

The US government isn't jealous, the US companies are and they have tried to enlist representatives in Congress to knock down their opponent. It would be better if they tried to get some kind of funding to help them to better create quality products. After all, the current admin is pushing make...

So it will be OK for Chinese DJI to still sell components of internationally used mini-computers? I think not but you're right, let's get past the drone ban first.

I was having a conversation with a news shooter of 35+ years yesterday and he mentioned the new glass for the Google phone would be Hasselblad and for the first time he may consider moving to a phone as his main news gathering camera. He also mentioned some impressive zoom capabilities. Whether...

Yes, and remember Google's fancy new phones are using Hasselblad glass. DJI owns Hasselblad so good-bye to that promising project too.

This bill is already the worst case scenario!! The article I posted here yesterday says this of DJI: "DJI’s outspoken public language in 2024 shows that the move to ban DJI in the United States has picked up steam and it is entirely possible that the Chinese robotics company that made a name...
