- Banning All Drones from Import to the US from China, now not just DJI, seems to be a new trend by Congress. My take on what's happening and what we can do.
We need your help.

If they’re going that route, they might as well ban cell phones and computers too while they’re at it.
Stop giving them ideas!
Lol
Bill introducer has no invested interest in phones etc. However she is vested in a certain usa drone co.
They are going to
They already have. See: Huawei. DJI will not be the last to go as our government continues down it's path of deciding what is best for us, while allowing publicly elected oficials to add digits to their bank accounts via lobbyists and insider trading.
Our government is way out of line
It sure is. They're just mad Americans are finding ways to support themselves. Has nothing to do with security.
My hometown was added to Stefanik's district in the last map redraw - I was a first responder for 27 years, and she's all talk, she's never done anything for the local communities and is only here to seek higher office. Hopefully the voters will see her for what she is, and vote her out instead of promoting the incompetent.
It's not just her though, the entire Republican party doesn't trust China. And Democrats take money from them.
US congress literally tried to sell our public safety first responder frequencies in an auction.
@@mdog6726 Congress DID sell my county frequencies, all new radios and pagers with no funding support
That's what happens when you have old mummy grandpa's in charge of the nation.
Thank God I'm Italian. And my Potensic ATOM 4K is ok here. 🙏
This is the republican sponsored Bill. Biden has nothing to do with it.
No, that's what happens when you have a communist country that's our enemy, doing things to undermine us.
From that point forward everything they do is under a microscope.
Learn how to build a drone and stop whining.
Look at them! They need to retire and find a hobby. Power trip!
They are banning everything in Italy too, its a manner of time
The “grandpa in charge” has very little to do with it
Her name is Elise Stefanik and she's 39. 2:00
When a politician uses words like "communist", BEWARE!
Time to get the ball rolling on a class action lawsuit.
The us drone companies are going to gouge the American consumers!
Welcome to U$ capitalism, it was never about improving your lives, it is always about squeezing out more profit! Nothing to do with free market!
I’ll honestly stop using drones in my production, and I’d hope others would to so that those companies can’t.
@@stephenmetcalfe8878 so if food corporations start lobbying the congress regarding food, you would stop eating?
Fact is, U$ fascist state will do whatever it wants.
Yep, and with what will likely be an inferior product from the companies who use their own software and designs. DJI will always be here, just under different names
they will make drones super expensive because they are effective tools of war and they don't want american people to have access to these tools for whats to come, trust me.
Why don't they close the border instead
We are going to need the immigrants to build American drones at a reasonable price
Because trump told them not too. Once he is back. Groan... they will attempt to do it and give him credit. They can't afford to give biden any credit for anything durr. This isn't rocket science
@@donwheeler1683 LOLOL
Because Amerikan can't do the job.
What an ignorant response.
They'll be banning chopsticks next. National security.
There's no telling how far this hysteria will go.
I can't be the first person to have the desire to fill a bag of poo and mail it to the government, can I?
I'm sure a few have followed through... 💩
Politicians across the spectrum and their "staff" tend not to be very bright about the "unintended" consequences of bills they propose. Watching from the Philippines where they are talking about more strict drone laws. Perhaps only criminals will have drones in the future.
You're not wrong, but this time it's all Republican paranoia. No money will come from this for the American market and all that will happen is substandard drones with bad software and make the hobby something only few will want to continue. When it comes to expensive drones of high quality for the military the USA can make plenty but for normal consumer that is not going to happen.
Only criminals will have drones; aka; the government!
@@MrDecessus Not necessarily true. A lot of the cheap chinese clones are using open source software and open source board/controller designs.
And a number of cheap crap you find on aliexpress, is made with 'factory second' literally dumpster dive components. And that is how they got started.
We don't have that here in the US, because our labor cost more and we banned lead solder, way back in the 80s, but no one had figured out how to do wave soldering with lead-free solder, and robotic pick and pluck machines were new and very expensive.
We used to be able to dumpster dive for stuff here too. The issue is, they need a paper trail in case there is a problem, so a manufacturer can issue a recall for parts made between a specific time because they have a paper trail, they don't have to recall all of the products. So they order a cases of components with like 10 reels per case, in part because they are cheaper but also because they all come from the same manufacturing batch. Not all components work from the manufacturer, they have a defect rate of say 1%, so they spot check them, and if they don't pass the spot check, they get thrown in the dumpster, and the manufacturer sends them a new case.
The same thing happens at manufacturing plants, it is cheaper to throw out a bad batch, because now the components are mislabled so now, you can have xyz ic's or diodes or resisters. If you go through and test each one individually, you can find the bad ones and remove them. That pack of 10k resistors you bought from china for 3 dollars, is most likely just cut off the reels and repackaged and sold. They don't know why they are in the dumpster, they may not even test them. they make 3 bucks with maybe 50 cents in costs. That is like a days wages.
The same thing happens with say prototype board, they gOnce production is over, and after a certain amount of time, and everyone is happy, they throw out all the extras in the dumpster.
Well if you dumpster dive, you can get reels of components. they are either good components and they wer
et thrown in the trash.
Then the 'engineers' that have the test set-ups, were probably staying after work, and using the equipment to do small runs of stuff.
They built a whole industry, based on industry waste. It is something we had, but we no longer do. The same thing happened in the UK.
Part of this is also liability laws. If it is a US manufacturer, then if something goes bad, you sue. If it is a chinese manufacturer, you aren't going to sue.
🤦
When they're doing things in the name of national security, they don't care what the consequences are to the consumer.
Only criminals? Huh? You do understand that people will still be building their own drones right?
@@MrDecessus it's not paranoia, you're just an NPC and you don't know what's going on, or what the Communist Chinese government is up to. Crazy that you would even think you know more than people that get intelligence briefings on the daily of what China is up to.
Yeah, the Republicans don't trust china, for good reason. And the only reason you don't hear Democrats talking about it is because Democrat politician are paid by China.
You didn't know that? 🤦
The fact is there’s nothing wrong with DJI drones, it’s the fact that the company is leading the market and it’s hard for competitors get their share. So what can be done? Hire lobbyists to propose a bill before congress
That's all it is can't compete so ban them did the same with Huawei
Government meddling where govt shouldn’t be in
This actually is where they should be meddling. The problem is they took too long to act on it, and now American drone owners can potentially have billions of dollars of bricks in the next 5-10 years
@@mattmanbrownbro sorry, disagree.
@@mattmanbrownbro During cold war USSR was one who baned imports left and right.Look how that ended for them Now is actualy USA who takes USSR tactic hoping they will be better in it
@@mattmanbrownbro they should not be meddling in private affairs, period. Their role is to enable commerce, not interfere in it.
@markkempton4579 sincerely hope you are pro roe and all that right?
Still Flying mine. I D G a F 😂 .
I paid good money to use it and I'm about to get my money's worth
If you've already purchased a DJI product it is not effected by this bill. This bill will effect FUTURE DJI products seeking signal broadcast/transmission approval from the FCC.
Drones have 2 year life.. I heard🤷
@@haroldyazzie3538basically the same as your flagship cellphone. 2 generations then upgrade
@@haroldyazzie3538not quite true. I have a mavic mini 1, almost 4 years old, that still flies as it should, you just need to look after the batteries.
@@ragndroneman good to know , I guess we fly till they give out. The dji fpv is my favorite 😔
Another perfect example of Government trying to do a good thing but totally screwing it up!
You don't even know what's going to happen yet.
@@DingleBerryschnapps history always repeats itself. No, we don't have a history of drones but we do have a history of the government doing this exact same thing. It wouldn't be nice to look back and say, dingleberry snapps was correct.
That’s pretty much all they do.
No, they are NOT trying to do a "good" thing. They are fear mongering for political gain. DJI (and other Chinese drone makers) are popular because they are far and away superior to any US made offerings. This whole dji ban was started because Skydio was making shitty subpar drones and instead of working to make them better thy instead enlisted the lobbyists to fear monger. If the republiclowns were really concerned with peoples personal info and national security they would stop covering for an ex president who still possesses national secrets AND they'd stop funding a genocide that will inevitably turn many people to radicalized vengeance AND they'd pass legislation STOPPING our own corporations from selling our personal info for profit!!! No, this is NOT an attempt at anything good..... and don't get me started on the Tik Tok ban that is solely because young people are using it to inform the world in short snippets of the genocide being committed....
They were never trying to do a good thing and it's no accident. They do not want us to have drones period so they are making sure we don't have drones!!
America, The REAL Commies🤣
GOP the real commies.. you mean
Land of the FREE!!
Sad it’s actually becoming a communist country be foreal who fucking has power over the country?! Cause it sure ain’t us!?
that's why they call it American dream, you got to be asleep to believe it!!
Not anymore
Ridiculous
I'm a photographer and want to get into cinematography. I have the DJI Mini 4 Pro. Nothing like taking pictures and videos from a whole different view point. I hope for all it doesn't pass.
For those that say they cant ban them, have not been paying attention. 2 stroke motors, leaf blowers, bumpstocks, swotch plates and vitamin B17, are just a few things I can think of that have been banned in recent times.
Abortion, books, IVF, contraception.
Such a free and brave country. 🤣
Thank you for your video. I used the links to send letters to my representatives. Only took a few minutes
Great job, it all helps!
Hopefully it takes 3 years to go thru as they're saying. That's my only hope, at least give us a little more time. The government wants us out of the air, period.
That's exactly what is happening get rid of competition ban the parts price it out of reach. The airspace is clear. Contacting representatives doesn't do a damn thing. We did it with the proposed rule making for remote id.
Guess Elsie doesn't like drones or people enjoying hobbies. It's to bad that we've come to the point where OUR government rules us, the PEOPLE, instead of OUR government serving THE PEOPLE. Isn't our constitutional right to foster prosperity and growth? We're living in sad times then.
It's not a done deal yet, so who knows this could be changed plenty or die in the coming months.
Thank You so much for addressing this issue.
You are so welcome!
I only got my DJI Mini 2 SE a couple weeks ago.
I hope it doesn't get grounded, because I only fly around my house
When they increased the licensing requirements for drones in the past few years, requiring citizens that make money with their flying cameras or choosing to volunteer their services for no fee to register with the government to operate a drone, the erosion of rights began. Since a camera drone is representative of our 1st Amendment right to free press (like any other camera), I feel this is the primer for additional laws that will first require licensing for a citizen to own a camera, but eventually cameras will become so costly that only the government will be allowed to use them for ‘safety and security’. This level of legislation is OUT OF CONTROL and our rights and freedoms to buy and use something based on our choice rather than the limits the government puts on us makes us no better than the very countries they are claiming are a threat. Our own government is the largest threat today to our freedom…
Bravo, bien dit !
Well said!
NORAD & Ft Carson, theyve had full control over my DJI drones for years now.
When trump came to town it was clear they have full drone control.
Huh?
@@DingleBerryschnapps I live in colo springs next to NORAD & Ft Carson, Military can talk to drones & controllers taking full control of DJI drones,
When trump came to town they'd take the drones if you launched after your drone was grounded
@@JohnDoe-zz3hjif the military could take control of your drone, how could you fly it? Or are you trying to say that the military and local police issued a ban on drone flying - via announcements in the local media - during Trump’s visit?
There’s a big difference between law-enforcement issuing a temporary ban and broadcasting digital signals that shut down the operation of electronic devices.
@@WisGuy4 I launched from the same spot as usual bout 3.5 miles from ft Carson & 8 to 10 miles from NORAD.
In detail: typically i can fly under 400 ft. - on my controller i will get alerts outlining flight restrictions pertaining to Gov operations.
When Trump came bout .5 mile from my home the entire hood was a black out NO internet, elec, water, man hole covers lifted.
Men in black were on every street for more than a half mile from Trump event.
DRONE
I was planning a 400 ft high launch to film the crowd from the same spot bout .5 mile away. flight restriction msg on my controller NO FLYING. I only need bout 50 ft to see the crowd over a home . WARNING AT 10 ft . You are about to lose control of your Name & ID of my drone. Your loss of equipment for non compliance WARNING!.
I landed my drone immediately. Men in Black were parked some standing all around close by now and knew exactly where I was at.
No idea, but I feel strongly that if I had not ID'd and came up as a UNKNOWN they would have came a knocking.
Here is the shocker, at 10 ft my drone would not go any higher. I didnt change modes I just brought the drone back down.
THEN my social media feed which I thought was not in my name had a PM with a warning of violations. I had never connected to any internet social apps- so for me that was msg: we see every move you make, they could have took the drone, charged me, obviously knew where I lived, CHILLING to say the least, owning a ID'd drone and ALL your privacy is gone.
@@WisGuy4 scary, I replied with detail as to what happened to the drone flight and my reply to does not show up.
DJI will counter the law in such a way that it’s indisputable. DJI isn’t posting everyday about this. Or doing much lobbying, tv appearances, etc. They are in my opinion strategizing for the next steps.
Huuuuuuh????
Posting every day about this? Are they a 12 year old girl on Instagram? What would they be posting every day? Give us an example of things they would say every day.
You have no idea what they're doing. You have no idea how much they're lobbying. You have no idea what you're talking about, just pulling things out of thin air.
They are going to do what they want regardless of what we say. We have done the same thing during the proposed rule for the remote ID. This is about getting us out of the airspace. If they get rid of competition ban parts you can't get price it out of your reach your grounded
Shay’s rebellion can teach Americans a lot
It may be good to get the residential realestate industry into this movement as well. A great deal of all listings are enhanced and even focused on the photography and videography done by drone operators.
Thank you. I Truly Appreciate You!
Happy Flying
Thank you for the kind words, it is very helpful! 🤙🤙
It's not just drones. Just got a DJI Pocket 3 camera. It will not be available in the USA if the ban on parts passes.
Not true, it's already fcc authorized meaning it can sell for the next 10 years along with all the drones that are already fcc authorized. This bill says nothing about retroactively banning already authorized drones. That is possible that the fcc retroactively bans the fcc listing's, but that's not in this bill.
They really want us to buy *toy* drones with cameras that are 144p, or just not functional at all
Or, I don't know, learn how to build one?
😂
With what parts that don’t come from china?
And also $1000
Best viedo on this topic!
Thankx
Thanks! 🙏
Way to destroy the drone industry by Republican Elise Stefanik 👎@2:01
She's a total Karen. Republicans: capitalism and small government, right? Such b.s.
Stefanie looks like the ultimate "Karen", thanks Republicans. So much for small government, eh?
Biden still would have to sign it so... and I don't think congress has 2/3s in both houses to override a veto. Biden said he would sign it if it came to him. Blame stefanik for it existing in the first place but let's not forget who actually signs it into law too.
@@0utcast I have not seen any news saying the president would actually sign this into law. But then presidents plenty of time say they will sign something knowing it will never reach their desk.
@@MrDecessus that news came out months ago when news first started about stefaniks bill. Google it
Always great information cool channel
Always great content! Sad to see this happening. As a realtor and traveler, drones are a must. Ugh. 😡🤔😩
Thanks for sharing! We can still affect the outcome, write and even call our reps. Hopefully we can make the difference... Might be the opportunity for a company like Sony to step into the consumer market too, we'll see... 🤙
Ty Sir
Thanks
Thanks for this timely information! I've got good representatives and senators here in Oregon! Love flying along the coast. By the way, just received my Potensic RID module, but crashed my drone, so waiting for parts from FIMI! On the way, quickly! Good customer service.
You had good service from FIMI? That's good to know, haven't heard much about their support...
Our US Senators are, indeed, good. Our Representatives vary depending on the District. Mine, for example (Salinas - D) is a duplicitous grifter feeding off the easily duped.
@@AlienDrones customer service responded next day as there is quite a time difference! I told them what I broke and they replied with photos to confirm items. I replied today with PayPal email for invoice and shipping address. The cost was minimal for the front top cover and those black plastic eyes. Way cheaper than the part I found on Amazon that is also coming from China. I should have contacted FIMI first!
Damn, we're all screwed
How much a Skadio pro go for today? Thank you and how do I purchase one? Thanks
Do you mean the Skydio 2+? It is not available to consumers anymore. The next X10 model is around $16k for the "starter kit". Not sure if your question is rhetorical, if so, never mind! 😎
And to think we were worried about Remote ID changing the industry 😮
Government ...
If you think the problems we create are bad, just wait until you see our solutions
Seems like DJI might have a workaround to the current Drone Bill, apparently they have partnered with the American Company Anzu Robotics to license technology for sale in the American market. Wouldn’t be surprised if prices increased, but their tech would still be available in the US. DJI controls about 70% of the global commercial drone market and 80% of the U.S. market.
Nicely done.
Thank you! Cheers! 🤙
This country is so stupid
I don't care what they do. I will still fly my DJI drone.
They can track you dude. Don't be a fool lol
The problem really is no new drones.
You may not be able to. They may have ways to disable it.
Yup. If there is a will there is a way. Ukraine has hacked DJi drones to get around geo mapping and the Os from stopping them from flying in country. I’m sure we can figure out something especially considering where things are headed. Our government literally hates freedom and the freedom loving.
@@SpyderBlackOfficialThey won't give a f.
We should all unite and at least twice a week, fly our DJI and DJI equipped drones.
Swarm the skies.
Hope they have a buy back program.... Worried about the wrong things.. Meanwhile in the rest of America.... POS!
I'll sell mine back for the original purchase price. I havent flown in over 6 months batts are probably Fd though
What if Chinese consult with companies who manufacture drones made in Singapore or Vietnam, the other company makes the drone....
Then they pay the Chinese company? Then what?
That won't work, see Tiktok is a Singapore company where as you said they just share revenge to China, but we banned it. So nothing will stop.
Does this include cuav? And other related systems?
Based on the variety of components included in the new bill it would seem they would be included, as it appears they are in Guangzhou, China
I cannot get a clear answer. Does this mean the DJI Air 3 I now own will be grounded if this passes? Or will it only apply to future drones? I have already emailed my members of Congress. So far, only one has responded but not with an intelligent response.
If you've already purchased a DJI product it is not effected by this bill. The DJI products you've already purchased have been approved to broadcast/transmit signals by FCC. This bill will effect FUTURE DJI products that haven't received FCC approval to broadcast/transmit a signal.
Why did you expect an intelligent response from some in Congress?
It is based on new imports being banned after 4 years. At that time they are talking about removing the FCC certification on the drones. So technically the existing drone could be illegal to fly without a valid certification if they decide to revoke the already issued one, BUT FCC has no enforcement arm to do anything about it, and the drone you poses would still show the FCC certification. So TECHNICALLY it could be considered banned, but in reality it will continue to fly just fine. Personally I wouldn't do any firmware updates if it passes to make sure no one pulls any funny stuff and tries to brick the drone that way, but that's giving congress a lot of undue credit that they would take it that far.
@@AlienDronesit also means that any current RID compliant (hardwired) drone that will be on the blacklist (potential fcc revoked cert) will be able to be discovered by police etc using droneid apps since they probably transmit the manufacturer info. But yeah they should still fly
This law is not for the existing drones people own.
For these drones they already gave licenses so they cant take that away from you.
Its only for new types of drones they still have to make and ask licenses for.
The drones you own and still want to buy that are lincensed ..they cant take that away.
Your Air 3 is and will always be safe.
So is it worth buying a DJI drone right now?
Yes. The wording in the bill is that it will effect all FUTURE DJI products that require FCC approval to transmit signal. Not CURRENT DJI products that already have FCC transmission approval.
Yes, it'll improve the next 24 months of your life.
I'll purchase a DJI and enjoy it for as long as possible I guess.
It will make a nice "look at this thing on my desk" display soon.
I've never owned a DJI drone, but since they are trying to ban them, I just ordered my first one.
The problem here is that it also effects Canada who would also deal with China. But when the American market disaperes the Canadian market goes with it.
Not true
Why would it go?
Really. If the U.S market has a problem it can affect the Canadian market but only slightly.
Canada's not banning dji. Canada doesn't need to. Just because the U.S sneezes doesn't mean that everybody catches a cold.
Not fair!
If the ban goes through, do I throw my mavick 3 Pro away?
You could send it to me :P
I'm seeing hundreds of trucks with military equipment heading to the Houston Ship Channel for shipping. Where is it going? Does it have anything to do with this new China Drone Ban?
It's weapons for Israel.
Thanks. Contacted representatives
Thanks for taking the time! It all helps! 🤙
I have a solution to this problem,and this is what I would do:first,remove all the electronics from the drone Airframe,than install a normal speed controller and receiver.The only electronics that can be used is the 4 brushless motors.My model airplanes have normal speed controllers and receivers as well as servos.So the government can't stop me.The only thing that can is an EMP which is a much bigger issue.
With the satellites everybody has, drones are a security risk?
We sort let the CCP fly balloons across the country whenever they please yet the drones are a problem? LOL
Not to mention companies that sell all of our data overseas anyways... America is run by 🖕 clowns.
Yes because you can't fly a satellite into critical infrastructure but a c4 laden Mavic 2 into a control tower at an airport etc? Yea.
Forgot to add... Well congress can't dictate whether another country puts a satellite into orbit although they can launch ASATs and destroy them ( but then you couldn't fly into space anymore cuz of all the debris.) But they can control what we can fly...
@@0utcast I kinda doubt China would ever do that and if I was doing it I’d just use a very fast RC plane which has been around since the 1960s. People tend to worry about a lot of stuff that’s never gonna happen.
This is why you don’t fly prebuilt
So the price is what i sss. A better drone for less price while american drones are a months rent and car note. This sucks
In time it will be way more than a month rent just like everything else.
Dear god I do despair. Just when you think that things couldn't get any worst, U$ z1ionist govt sinks further!
I supposed it is good news for people of the global south, at least they will now get all the new tech gadgets at affordable prices. FUS!
Is emax fine..?
Do you have a filter on or heavy filtering? Seems like a dream not sure if that what you were going for. this ban is going to suck
Aww shucks, so I'm dreamy? 😅. Mist filter always on in the studio, happened to make it a lot more pronounced this time with the really bright shirt... Live and learn. 🌞 Wait, maybe these ban bills ARE a dream...😲
What about all the data that is sent from foreign vehicles back overseas? Should we ban Toyota, Nissan, BMW, Kia etc etc?
Isn't it funny how projection works? You say one entity is doing something bad but then go ahead and do the same thing and in just a different way.
So glad I don't live in such an oppressive country.
I thought the US was supposed to be the land of the free!!!
Oh … BTW … most of your iPhone is made in China, too. When will those parts be banned?
Everything is made in China
Of course, not those things are to beneficial to them.
We live in interesting times. The U.S is feeling threatened and is now in full scale protectionist mode and attempting redraw and recarve the global geopolitical boundaries even if it means lowering the living standards of its citizens. Vladimir Lenin observed this behavior of imperialist powers competing with each other that would always result in war.
Anyone knows how to unbind a dji drone
Wow we can't even play with drone it's going to be rc car next week
The house is infected with some bad stuff,
Bought a DJI mini 4 from amazon and got it two days ago contemplating on keeping it. After reading all these comments, I decided to open it and start charging the batts. I've got until July 22 to return it. Hoping I'm not wasting $1200.
It was always all Chinese drones just DJI was specifically named
What about TikTok that has control over 60% of american phones
did not know TikTok was able to install it self into someones phone. Learn something new every day. I guess mine will always be safe.
Don't fall for this espionage data security reasoning. That has nothing to do with the reason behind this bill. That's just how they're selling it to the public.
What they're worried about is far worse than data collection. China already has our data.
This is about something much worse that they're not talking about because they don't want to give people ideas.
US manufacturers will struggle because they cannot easily export there machines due to ITAR restrictions, EU and Australian makers don't face such restrictions to send them that way.
I would also tell everybody to take care of your drone electronics.Reduce the ware and tare by not flying as often.This will make the drone hobbyist more. Savvy.There are US companies makings circuit boards.The tough part will be is getting electronic components.
Ban away, I'll just ignore it anyway. I fly in the middle of my midwest city, no people around and when you are higher than about 30 feet, no one is going to ever see it.
It's a BUY ban, not a FLY ban...
Do not comply
We'll; there goes free market out the window!
How are they going to police all these millions of drones? Drone police?
Fuck yeah! Should be the sequel to team America!
They are not going to police anything, it's for future drones which is annoying but should not affect people with already DJI drones. I still think this will die in the coming months.
They could send a new update to brick it....
And DJI requires you to login sometimes before you even can fly.
Means your connected to the internet .. and from there they could do all they want.
Not allowing you to fly without the new update .. then brick it... and you wouldnt be able to fly anymore.
But i dont think it would come that far.
jeesh. decided this morning to buy my first drone. wanted a sub$200 drone, then wanted built in screen, so i stretched my budget and got a DJI mini3 w screen. Then 10 minutes later see all this about a BAN!?! now what should i do?just wanted something for recreation, grandkids, etc...
Honestly, go ahead and do it. IF the ban actually makes it through in it's current form the likelihood of already purchased drones getting grounded is unlikely. It would likely be a few years for anything to go into effect and a lot can happen in the mean time so don't deprive yourself and grandkids of the enjoyment until you have to worry about it. After the election it may fall off altogether. 🤙
How does Chevron Deference being overruled by SCOTUS affect Drone pilots and Remote ID?
Let's hope. 🤞
Unless they stock up on parts that might happen
From what I read it’s only new drones . Previous ones before the ban ( if it passes) will be fine
Honestly, we don't know that. Until (and IF) the final bills are resolved by the house and senate, we all can guess and give our opinions, but it it is a possibility that the FCC approval is revoked for existing products. DJI could also get pissed off and brick current drones via a quick firmware update if they are locked out of the US market. Again, not saying this will happen but who would of thought the US government would ever attack the consumer drone market with a "BAN" in the first place? It's all nuts and defies common sense.
The whole situation with drones being stuffed into some military bill shows how ignorant and childish some people are in our government.
There are citizens in the USA that need support in heath housing that the government ignores. They focus on war money and their selfish interest not the people
Priorities are out of whack for sure. Sad, but true.
DJI Mavic 3 with fly more kit in top condition for sale, was 4200.00 new sale price 3000.00 firm...😅
Happy i bought mine when i did. Even bought a few extra parts. cuz i knew it would come to this.
One big problem is what to do if the equipment breaks down？😂
Please make a live show with Ken Heron for this topic.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, it doesn't sound good for the DJI, or the other Chinese drone makers.
Thanks for watching! Very true! Hopefully some senators help this fall apart, it will only take a few...
"BANS" already purchased drones, or new purchases, AFTER ban goes into affect?
You see if you’re anticipating a ban no matter what then it’s best to allow that to happen. The ban applies to the US. They will still be sold in other countries that still allow the import.
Is it made in usa or assembled in usa? China can't make top drawer computer chips.
Are not the cell phones cameras also isn't the same deal ban them also....this is bullshit
im sub 250 recreational and have my trust certificate, im not broad casting anything, but seriously considering a mini2 before thier gone
How about the EVO II PRO DUAL 640R not 640T
Are there any drone companies in the US that can compete with drones made in China, ( Price wise)? I don't think there is or ever will be.
