Drone News: DJI Release Leaks, AUVSI’s Stance on Drone Bans, & an Update on the NFL Drone Flight


Listen Later

Welcome to your weekly UAS news update, we have 3 stories for you this week: DJI Releases, AUVSI’s stance on Drone Bans, and an update on the man who flew over an NFL game in Maryland.

First up, DJI has a few rumors out for future releases!

The first is scheduled to come out on March 26th and is titled “Easy Operation, Superior Results”.
Leaks suggest this is most likely the DJI Dock 2, the Matrice 3D, and 3DT drones.
The Dock 2 and the new Matrice series drones popped up on the FCC database in February, but we haven’t seen any updates since then.
Rumors put the new dock at about $10,000 but don’t discuss the price of the drones.
Leaked specs include 50 minute flight times for Matrice 3D series, wind resistances up to 12 m/s (27 mph), and a maximum take off weight of 1610g.
Pretty cool for enterprise customers and public safety!

Last up this week is an update on the drone flyover of an NFL game earlier this year.
Matthew Hebert flew a drone over and around the stadium causing a delay during the first quarter of the game.
Police quickly located Hebert, who claimed ignorance of the TFR and relied on the drone’s remote control app for guidance.
Hebert cooperated fully with the investigation and was sentenced to one year of probation and a $500 fine.
