Anyone know where I can purchase a decent quality CPL filter for Mavic 3 Pro?

In the past I always purchase drone filters from PolarPro. And I contacted their customer support yesterday. For some weird reason, they have no plan to release CPL filter for Mavic 3 Pro at the moment.

The only one I could find online right now is from JSR, and it looks like a joke.

Agreed you could not make good glass for that price
 
That does not look like a CPL - Circular PoLarizing filter, as it can not be rotated. It looks more like a linear polarizing filter, which generally does the same thing, but is less flexible and can fool the metering and autofocu system on many cameras.
 
CPL only work in one direction and only when the sun is in a certain position, compared with the drones travel line. Outside of those very limited parameters, the CPL will have little to no use. A CPL on a drone is very different to on a camera on the ground, which does have a valid use because you can alter the filter by turning the ring. You are stuck in one position when it is on a drone.
