ADU 0916: Drone News This Week – Airmap’s Geofencing for Drones, Phantom 4 V2 Shortage, Phantom 5 Launch, DJI’s Osmo Pocket and Drones for Public Safety with Drone DJ

13 minutes

In today's show, Paul and Haye team up yet again to bring you some of the most interesting drone stories of last week.

We kickstart this show by talking about Airmap's Geofencing alerts that aim to facilitate safer drone flights. According to Airmap, flying near buildings and structures is particularly hazardous. Is there any substance to this claim? Next, we talk about the current shortage for Phantom 4 V2. Does this mean that the Phantom 5 launch is on the anvil?

Paul and Haye also share their experience of visiting the Good Morning America Studio for DJI's launch of the Osmo Pocket. We wrap up this informative show by discussing how Americans perceive the use of drones for public safety. Tune in for some great news. Fly Safe!
