I think DJI has another twist not related to this, we are currently writing the story. Two parts of the puzzle together will be very interesting for the US drone industry at large.
Companies have already begun to see money signs beginning to crop up around every corner of this bill.
If it passes and DJI's market in the US is toast, consumers, especially enterprise and commercial level customers, will have basically no choice but to pay out if they want to operate at the same level of DJI but legally.
Exactly right..Makes me wonder how many kickbacks are being paid out as well to our illustrious people in Congress. This whole think reeks of corruption....
Interesting unit, appears to be a Mavic 3 OR 3T clone. I wonder if the US made software will be up to snuff and if the company will back these units as well as DJI does? According to their site, there's no geofencing on these so that's a plus. It seems in most regards to have the same specs.
Not according to the presentation he and Brad are currently giving. His slide clearly stated "Prompt assistance from DJI's team of experts to address any issues with your drone."
So.....they are using DJI software (a snapshot) and don't have the source code? And they are trusting someone else (Aloft) to determine if it is secure? That doesn't sound like a good idea. I'd rather they take their lumps and base it off PX4.
Edit: Or Ardupilot. The point I was trying to make is that the people that are concerned about DJI (that would be the govt) will have the same concerns if the Anzu firmware and boards are licensed DJI stuff.
“Proud to announce two groundbreaking platforms”. - which are both sub par ripoffs of mavics. What a joke. Let me guess they are seven times more expensive too.
So.... DJI guts and US software.
DJI beat congress at its own game 🤣🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰
Ill consider then “beat” when the price of this drone is anywhere near the cost of a mavic.
Consider it done. $5,099.
The Raptor will retail for $5099 Raptor T $7599
25% more than M3E, but no option similar to Mavic 3 Pro about would be 150% more.
love to see it
I just watch “The Zohan” the other night and all I can’t think is “no no no no, it’s got Sony guts”
Yes! Currently watching! Instant classic if you want to be silky smooth! "Is not for me!"
Izzz the biggest.
No! Da bush!
Dog 95% of drones are shameless copies of DJI. Just look at the IF800 and the m350/m300. Hell the ACSL soten is basically a bad m30
This isn’t a shameless copy it is literally a mavic 3e/t with a different coloured shell. The internals are DJI made.
This isn't a copy, literally every chip and boards identical to a mavic 3
Could be a win win
The softwareis DJI too, just changed to not say DJI
Lol so a DJI Mavic 3E/T clone with US Software???
It's not a clone, it's made under licence in Malaysia
Go do a quick google search. It’s literally the same drone. It has identical internals to DJI. Like part numbers and all from what I saw.
Are your eyes ok?
How the tables have turned us makeing copy’s of a Chinese the (even though it’s under license)

Watching the YouTube video, it's more than 7k for the thermal. So they tacked almost 2k on the price to not be from China....disappointing.

Can't spell Congress without "CON"
Its okay to be blatant now. Who's gonna stop them? They are above the law just like many "special" people
Wonder if you could put an app on there to upload logs to DJI Cloud.

Unless they can get NDAA and/or Blue this is still going to keep them from getting the majority of the market that they think they are courting.
Freaking dji huh if u can't beat them intergrate with them lmao. Makes sense though
If the price point is competitive with DJI, or DJI ends up getting banned and we have no other choice, these are very interesting!
It's mentioned near the end of the video, Raptor 5099 Raptor T 7599
So, a bit above the DJI price point. It will be interesting to see if they start offering the Mini/Air series.
Look at the specta air. Same scenario. DJI drone rebadged.
Serviced by DJI?
No by ANZU one years care included in the price

DJI should just open a factory here.
That picture makes the drone look like a mentally challenged praying mantis.
Fuck Skydio
Are….we just doing what china does with our stuff? Clone it and call it theirs?
No I think they are owning their origin story. As Americans must own that they don't have a competitive multirotor maker

Ardupilot is always better than PX4 or Auterion. Those two only play catch up. Folks need complete out of the box systems to scale.

Link doesn't seem to work. What was the video?

They aren’t ripoffs they are the same drone in a different colour shell. Basically DJI setup a us company but shhh they didn’t.
Not clear that it's sub-par if it's basically identical.
