you keep saying that with such absolute conviction you're right maybe you are but so far, nobody has sufficiently answered my question, including you that question being: what software does anybody use to fly the Mini 3 Pro, Mini 4 Pro, Mavic 3, and Mavic 3 Pro? Licthi doesn't support those...

I read that article and this excerpt caught my attention: "Using his network, Warnas reached a licensing deal with DJI to manufacture the Raptor drones in Malaysia, using the core design and internal chipset of the DJI Mavic 3 platform. He could then import and sell the drones in the U.S. under...

well so far, when anybody here wonders if it's possible existing drones could be grounded, they get told they are being hysterical because it just won't happen personally, I don't think it will happen, at least not immediately, but it's not wise to underestimate the reactionary lunacy of...

does that make any sense at all? I mean, are Mavic & Mini drones the only way China can "access" FCC airwaves?

if my posts bother you, don't read them

I'm wondering....if the bill does pass in a version that allows 'grandfathering' in drones purchased before a certain date....and that date is like 2 or 3 or 4 weeks after passage... would you consider buying a drone to get it covered under the grandfather provision? I have a Mavic 3 already...

I haven't paid attention to Autel. Curious...what are you referring to?

it's at the extreme end of the possibilities, but the government could compel them to do it

again...that isn't really what I asked my question is can DJI, thru the Fly app, successfully ground their drones? They can certainly restrict height and distance

OK, but that's not what I asked it doesn't really matter whether it's thru the FCC, Congress, executive order, or the courts...if the government ordered DJI to comply with the new legislation by grounding their drones thru the Fly app, isn't it almost certain DJI would comply? The FCC would...

I'd imagine if this 'ban' is passed the FCC might order DJI to ground all drones thru the DJI Fly app?

can you explain why it's "unlikely"? we know that this bill passed out of committee unanimously; it's was something like 43-0. We also know that the thrust of enforcement was thru the FCC and would order it to block DJI drones from using the US communication infrastructure. In other words...

so, looking for any silver lining in the dark clouds forming over DJI drones, what are the options if your DJI drones are grounded but you'd like to keep flying? * well, the legislation has just passed out of committee and has yet to face the amendment process. And then it would have to pass...

have you ever tried to fly your DJI drone when it wasn't signed in to the DJI? They restrict your flight altitude to 30M (above home point) and distance to 50M. This restriction was integrated in the DJI Fly app and couldn't be hacked so the FCC could require DJI to, at minimum, enforce those...

I asked this earlier in this thread and it wasn't answered: is there a legitimate reason DJI drones are in the crosshairs, but Autel drone's aren't? Or are they next on the list?
