 The FCC added a new regulatory proposal to the Federal Record, which provides for 30 days of public comments to be heard before a final decision is made. This new regulation would further ban the sale or distribution of any drone in the United States that includes LIDAR, Thermal Imaging, Swarming Technology or Aerial Delivery of liquids (Crop Spraying). This immediately affect the DJI Air 3S, Neo 2, Avata 360 and the Mini 5 Pro. The links above take you to the form you can use to submit a comment to the FCC letting them know that you oppose this regulation. Please take a minute to do this today so we can try and stop the draconian regulations that are affecting our hobby. Thanks for watching and please let me know if you have any questions!
