Table top piece

It’s all of it that has a wireless signal

I think you may have misunderstood. I did state that even though the two are quite similar that doesn’t mean that there’s any foul play. Anzu Robotics and DJI have a licensing agreement. This legal contract allows Anzu to use DJI’s technology (such as the camera sensors and other components) without shared ownership or control. Think of it like how Microsoft licenses its Windows operating system to various computer manufacturers. While Anzu Robotics uses DJI technology under a licensing agreement, DJI’s influence extends beyond drones. Their commitment to research and development has led to groundbreaking innovations in flight control systems, camera stabilization, and artificial intelligence, impacting various industries worldwide. So, DJI continues to soar, even as new players enter the field! It will be interesting to see how this continues to develop.

@@PurpleFinchPhoto Ah ok, thanks for the clarification, I am quite shocked when you show the specs are the same with DJI. For a moment I thought we have beginning to come to the stage where US companies are now ripping of Chinese IP.

Anzu is an entirely independent, US-based entity with a distinct operational model. There are no royalties shared with DJI, no joint or shared ownership of Anzu Robotics, and no reporting on customer data. Like I’ve previously stated, I strongly encourage you to research these things, and then, form your own opinion. dronedj.com/2024/06/08/anzu-robotics-dji-mavic-drone/?extended-comments=1#:~:text=But%20unlike%20China's%20DJI%2C%20Anzu,no%20reporting%20on%20customer%20data.

Again laughable - Anzu Robotics and DJI have a licensing agreement in place - Which allows Anzu (The licensee)to use the Licensor’s (DJI) intellectual property such as trademarks patents and more importantly technology without the complexities of shared ownership or control - My point was - it’s not a coincidence that Anzu Robotics appear to making similar drones - They are making DJI drones - It’s almost like DJI knew there was a ban coming 😂 Oh and I did do my research hence my original comment 😊

Yes you will still be able to access your flight records manually. It will be stored in the controller or the SD card of your drone. View more info here: viewpoints.dji.com/blog/dji-to-disable-flight-record-sync-in-the-us

If you fly DJI products it certainly will, the House is preparing to vote on HR2864 and if the bill is signed into law that will mean dji will be forced to ground all their existing drones through their software, meaning you won’t be able to fly if you’re in the U.S.

@@PurpleFinchPhoto nothing in any of either bill says anything about grounding current drones, it actually states all current models and drones flying will be grandfathered and no ban will actually happen until 2030.

I’m not sure where your getting your info from but HR2864 will prohibit the use of dji drones and will be unable to launch from the app or controller if the bill gets signed into law, which its making its way into the House on June 12th. HR2864 is an addition to the 2019 Secure and Trusted Communications Networks Act

@@PurpleFinchPhoto that’s completely incorrect, if you read both bills, and the FCC website, current DJI products will be grandfathered in. They will not be allowed to sell new products that aren’t currently approved, I’m so sick of people like you scaring everyone for views.

@@DAISYMAYK123 The bill doesn’t directly say that DJI drones will be grounded, and yes it says they will be grandfathered in. HOWEVER. In case you aren’t aware, 2030 is a while from now. If this bill is passed their next step is to have the FCC Authorizations for existing DJI craft to be REVOKED. Meaning yes your current drone would be forcefully grounded. This will cripple 67% of small businesses that operate drones in the US. DO YOUR RESEARCH.

It’s sad.

Yes, there are legitimate concerns about China spying on the US (We’ve already banned certain Chinese telecom brands, but also, it’s complicated and it can get weird). But does that mean we need to ban all technology made in China? No. I mean, hello, iPhones? Should we single out DJI in particular just because their drones (like all drones) use and transmit GPS data to operate? Absolutely not. But that’s the general rallying cry around banning them. Using a similar logic as the proposed TikTok bans, which absolutely does capture and store user data, Congress is saying that DJI captures user data, and that that data is available to the Chinese government, essentially allowing them to surveil US territory and our behaviors. DJI maintains this isn’t the case, and that users can opt out of data collection entirely and restrict all data to the local device. Enterprise users can even use 3rd party flight software to control the drone, opting out of DJI’s app entirely. Drone Advocacy Alliance; “The “Countering CCP Drones Act” would have a massive impact on the drone industry writ large and even the broader U.S. economy. According to a 2023 economic impact analysis by John Dunham & Associates, removing DJI and its products from the market would result in the closure of 67% of American small drone businesses and the loss of more than 450,000 U.S. jobs. In addition, cutting the leading manufacturer out of the drone market would lead to rising costs and product shortages for all users. It also takes a life-saving tool out of the hands of first responders, putting lives on the line. Further, this legislation would expand the authority of the FCC to include the developers of software that operates on DJI equipment, even U.S. software developers.” If you like DJI drones, want to keep using them, and maintain consumer choice, reach out to your Senators and Representatives and let them know that you oppose HR 2864. This form makes it quick and easy (30 seconds). Best to do it before June 12, 2024, when a vote is expected in the House. Regardless, while the concerns are real, DJI maintains that their drones prioritize user privacy and data security. As a drone enthusiast, it’s essential to stay informed and make informed decisions based on the complete available facts.

Thank you, and welcome!

They have a licensing agreement. The drone is not directly supplied to Anzu, but rather they copy the hardware specs to create their own near replica version of the DJI Mavic 3 E. It’s just interesting to see that our government is worried about DJI’s drones coming from china, but not Malaysia (who’s still communist) so as long as they put a heftier price tag on it and says its to protect our national security.

DJI has taken several steps to address and refute claims of being tied to the Chinese Communist Party. They have published transparency reports detailing how it handles user data, emphasizing its commitment to privacy and security. The company has also invited independent third-party audits of its data practices, to verify that user data is not shared with the Chinese government. DJI has made adjustments to its operations, such as moving some data operations to other countries, to demonstrate its independence from Chinese government influence. Also this move of completely getting rid of the data syncing entirely underscores DJIs commitment, as it’s not an easy thing to do considering a lot of people rely on their flight logs. DJI has actively engaged with regulators and stakeholders globally, providing detailed information and evidence to counter claims of CCP influence. The company has implemented robust data security measures, including local data mode, which prevents data from being sent to the internet. DJI has issued public statements and responses to allegations, consistently denying any improper ties to the CCP and highlighting its global operations and customer base. So yes they’ve proven time and time again, yet the U.S. government doesn’t want you to know this.

@@PurpleFinchPhoto ALL Chinese companies are required by CCP law to share their data with the CCP. They can "adjust" all they want but they are a Chinese company.

@@chuckwain5591 DJI has refuted these allegations time and time again. And now to try and put this entire thing to rest they went as far as no longer allowing data to be synced to dji or anywhere. The data is now being stored locally. Did you watch any of the video? Please do your research. Yes DJI is Chinese. Do they want to track everything we do and spy on us while we fly our drones looking at trees and ponds? Oh I’m sure 🙄

@@PurpleFinchPhoto Sorry you have drank the cool-aid. Yes I watched the video, no I do not believe everything DJI says, nor should any other reasonable person. I have owned DJI products, I still do, their goggles and O3 video units. I know for a fact that they were sending the data collected off of their Mavic drones to servers in China. How exactly do you know they still do not, because they say so??? I do not believe any Chinese company can ignore a request from the PLA for data they have, period.

Hence why it’s a clone.

Thanks for watching!

I would hope so, however dji outsourcing its specs to Anzu could be really bad for their company, especially if Anzu doesn’t keep up with the same level of service and reliability that DJI has.

You have to buy your politicians there is no convincing them of anything. Harvard has done studies on this decades ago.

@@PurpleFinchPhoto Which we know they will not. Outside Apple I don't have a lot of trust in American companies keeping up with service.

Economics 101 free market is nonsense.

Yeah when the CCP subsidizes DJI it's impossible for anyone else to compete, when Taiwan subsidizes TMSC it's impossible for anyone else to compete, and when Korea subsidizes Samsung it's impossible for anyone else to compete.

DJI is actually outsourcing their products to other companies in hopes to help control some of the market if they do end up getting banned. However this could be bad for DJI, not being able to control the quality and the competitive edge over the market.

Anzu Purchased a license from DJI to build the drones

Do your research before you spout ignorance..

It is a clone. Dji has outsource some of their hardware to third party sources so they can create SIMILAR drones, not nearly exact copies. Although it doesn’t have Geo Fencing capabilities so no it isn’t the Mavic.

@@PurpleFinchPhoto bro, open one up and see dji logo everywhere

My understanding is that Anzu has purchased a license to manufacturer the drones from DJI and that it is the same hardware as the Mavic 3. AFIK the only difference will be firmware and software.

How does Anzu lack a moral backbone? While our politicians and Skydio are trying to take away the best, most affordable drones that we use, Anzu has come up with a workaround. How is that anything but a good thing?

@@jerseyshoredroneservices225 Even if the teacher says it's legal to copy answers from the answer sheet, I'd going to respect the kid who comes up with his own answer more than the one who just copies.

@@ShadoFXPerino The problem with that is that no US drone Maker has come up with the answer on their own. If you want to wait for someone to do it that's fine but if Stefanik gets DJI banned you'll have nothing to fly... Company's partner with and acquire each other all the time. There's nothing immoral about buying something that somebody else has already created.

Is it even any good? Or just another of these fly by night scam we see so much in the States.

Anzu purchased a license from DJI. They're doing it right and there's nothing to sue for.

It’s not going to affect drones you already have

@@TheLinesEnd I haven't really red into it, but do you mind elaborating please? I have expensive DJI equipment and would like to know more. Thank you.

@@Daa253 yeah the main part of it would ban importing DJI products. It wouldn’t ground or limit use of ones already here

Than do something about it rather than smashing a keyboard…

@@Rckid28 I wrote in already. Also had friends that don't have drones write in . What else

Considering the main politician behind this issue are Republican I would second that there is some underhanded reason for all this. Follow the money as always.

Not true at all. Look at iPhones they have a lot of Chinese chips inside them. It’s not the chips it’s the security. If it’s a us based business then they won’t care. These DJI drones collect a lot of data and who owns that data? China. USA wants USA companies to own the data .

I wouldn't put anything past Stefanick but banning all Chinese components wouldn't make sense. Everything in the US has Chinese components and there is no threat to Chinese chips, if they have American firmware and software, which the Anzu does.

AFAIK Anzu sources its parts from Malaysia

@@ShadoFXPerino I'm not there so I can't be 100% sure but it's my understanding that assembly is being done in Malaysia while many/most of the parts are being bought from DJI. Either way, I don't care. I don't think there's any real threat and if there is, the threat is from ties to China. Anzu doesn't have ties to China any more than any other importer of Chinese parts and materials.
