  • ADU 01106: I am Running into Glitches on My Phantom 4 RTK Remote. Should I Switch Over to a SDK Remote?
    Today's show is about the Phantom 4 RTK. What are some main issues that you are likely to encounter with the P4P RTK?
    Our caller for today, Chris from Charlotte is a Phantom 4 RTK user. Chris is running into some glitches with his P4P RTK remote, and thinking of switching over to a SDK remote. Is this a good idea? Does a P4P SDK remote work seamlessly with third party apps?
    To answer Chris's questions, we reveal the pros and cons of the Phantom 4 RTK in great detail. There are many professional mappers who prefer using the Phantom 4 Pro V2 over the pricier Phantom 4 RTK. Hasn't the P4P RTK resulted in a compressed and more efficient mapping workflow? What are some of the issues that you are likely to encounter with the Phantom 4 RTK?
    Apart from the remote, other topics discussed in today's show include using GCP's with the P4P RTK, connecting to a NTrip network, and using GPS equipment. We hope you enjoy this show! Fly Safe!

    Zipline to Commence Drone Delivery Operations from North Carolina, Flash Forest Uses Autonomous Drones for Reforestation, Is 2020 the Year of Drones?, Wing Aviation Grows at 500%
    Our main story today is about drone deliveries. The US has been lagging behind countries like Australia and even Africa due to archaic laws that make it incredibly difficult to use drones for making deliveries. So, far, delivery providers have been choosing to fly under Part 135 since making drone deliveries under Part 107 was thought to be nearly impossible.
    However, recently, we published a detailed blog post revealing how operators can make deliveries under Part 107. Now, as per the latest industry reports, drone delivery provider, Zipline has been approved by the FAA to make deliveries in the US. And Zipline is planning on flying under Part 107. Zipline shall be delivering medical supplies and is planning to commence operations from North Carolina. All this and much more in this segment of the show.
    Other topics discussed in today's show include Wing Aviation registering a 500% rise in drone deliveries, how the virus outbreak has resulted in increased usage of drone technology, autonomous drones for reforestation, and much, much more…

  • ADU 01105: Is the FAA Enforcing Action Against Pilots Who Are Illegally Flying BVLOS?
    How to Deal With Illegal Drone Pilots



    Today's question is about illegal BLOVS flights.



    Our caller for today, Mark has come up with a great question that has not been asked on ADU before. Mark recently saw a video where an Autel Evo 2 was flown more than a mile away. In yet another instance, another YouTuber took his Mavic Mini to 18,000 feet AGL. Have these YouTubers taken the necessary legal permission to fly these shots that are outside the rules of Part 107? If not, what is the likelihood of the FAA enforcing action against such illegal drone pilots?



    Flying illegally certainly sets a bad precedent - more so, if you are a prominent YouTuber with millions of followers. Tune in to find out what you can do if you come across similar instances. Thanks for the great question, Mark. Fly Safe!

  • BONUS: Drone News – DJI Mavic 3 Release Date, Autel Wins Legal Battle Against DJI, DJI Mavic Air 2 Issue, Remote ID to Roll Out in 2021
    DJI Mavic 3 Set to Hit Stores Earlier Than Expected, Autel Wins Landmark Legal Judgement Against DJI, DJI Mavic Air 2 Issue, Remote ID to Roll Out in 2021



    Our biggest story this week is about the DJI Mavic 3. Regular ADU listeners might be aware that a new DJI drone with enhanced autonomous features has been in the works for quite some time now. Initially, we were expecting the DJI Mavic 3 to be released in summer 2020. However, strong Mavic 2 Pro sales and perhaps, gloomy economic conditions had put this drone on the backburner. But the latest developments might force DJI to come out with this new drone sooner than expected.



    In today's show, you will learn about Autel winning a patent dispute against DJI. Autel's patent makes it impossible to mount props incorrectly. And from this legal outcome, it is apparent that DJI had blatantly copied this clever engineering that Autel had originally developed. While this prop system is present on all old DJI drones like the Mavic 2 Pro and Spark, the new DJI Mavic Air 2 comes without it - which makes it possible to mount props incorrectly. So, what will the fate of old DJI drones like Mavic 2 Pro and Spark? Will this development prompt DJI to come out with the DJI Mavic 3? And, is this a good opportunity to get DJI drones at a hefty discount?



    Our next story is about Remote ID. The latest developments indicate that the FAA is all set to roll out Remote ID on a trial basis by 2021. This restrictive proposal has certainly galvanized the entire drone community - and you might remember how the Remote ID NPRM managed to rack up 54,000 comments. With most of the FAA staff furloughed due to the virus outbreak, how did FAA manage to process all these comments? Is the FAA even paying heeds to the concerns raised by the drone community?



    Other topics discussed on today's show include data security issues and FAA's technology partners for remote ID implementation.

    Near Drone Crash During Detroit America Strong Flyover, DJI Drones for Spying?, Brendan Schulman talks about DJI and Data Security, Drone Show in Rotterdam on Liberation Day, Drones for Disinfecting Sports Stadiums



    Our big story this week is about a drone that came dangerously close to the Blue Angels during the recent Detroit America Strong Flyover. Drone U's Vic Moss managed to download this footage from Mr. Lucia, the drone pilot's FB page before it was pulled down. A TFR was likely in place when the drone pilot illegally captured this footage. Flouting a TFR is a breach of national defense airspace rules and is a federal crime. Currently, multiple agencies are on the lookout for Mr. Lucia. Tune in now for more detailed insights on this story!



    In our next story, you will learn that Republican lawmakers have questioned if drones donated by DJI for public safety are being used for spying. Regular ADU listeners might be aware of the intense scrutiny that Chinese manufacturer DJI is facing with regards to data security. After the trade wars, these tensions have been exacerbated by the coronavirus outbreak. But, are these wild and illogical accusations fuelled by patriotic fervor? In a recent podcast, Brendan Schulman talks about the different issues that DJI is facing in the United States. If you are a drone enthusiast, we highly recommend you check out this interview.



    Other topics covered in this week's news show include drone show in Rotterdam, drones for disinfecting sports stadiums, and a sneak-peek into the incredible Mercedes-Benz museum in Germany. Do not miss today's special show! Fly Safe!
