BONUS: Drone News–DJI Pushes Back Mavic 3 Release Date, Remote ID NPRM Racks Up 54,000 Comments, Impossible Aerospace Drones for Emergency Response - a podcast by Drone U

Commenting period for Remote ID NPRM comes to a close, DJI Estimates cost of Remote ID infrastructure at $5.6 Billion, Autel Evo 2 Delayed, New Robomaster by DJI, DJI Mavic 3 Release Date and much, much more…



Our first story today is about the Remote ID NPRM. The Remote ID NPRM racked up a total of 54,000 comments in the 60-day period that ended on March 2,2020. While this enthusiasm was heartening, there are some prominent organizations with ulterior motives who also voiced their support for this proposed rule. Further, DJI in their response estimated the cost of Remote ID infrastructure at $5.6 Billion (10x FAA's estimate). All this and much more, in the first segment of the show.



Our next story is about DJI Mavic 3. Regular ADU listeners might recall that we were earlier expecting a new Mavic in January 2020. This release date was again pushed back to summer 2020. Now, the latest reports indicate that DJI is adopting a wait and watch policy. With DJI Mavic 2 still going strong, a bottom-line focused DJI is in no hurry to come out with a new drone. Instead, the latest reports indicate that DJI may come out with a new Robomaster soon.The last segment of the show is particularly interesting as we talk about Impossible Aerospace's novel (but flawed) approach geared towards public safety. Impossible Aerospace plans to have drones on different rooftops, ready to set flight for emergency response. So far so good. However, Aerospace also plans on training public safety departments so that they can acquire COA's. We discuss why a tailor-made approach is not the right one, especially in areas like public safety.



Other topics discussed on this show include the Autel Evo 2 and FAA's Drone Advisory Committee (DAC). Tune in for some excellent insights!
