New U.S. DJI drone alternative just hit the market, it’s only 6X the cost of equivalent DJI drone

  The price is irrelevant because this is will be purchased with government dollars. This drone is not for you and me; it is intended to be used against you and me.

  Just read the actual product page. They are targeting military, law enforcement, and surveillance applications. These guys have a heading on their product page titled “paramilitary,” for fuck’s sake.

      They don’t have to be; they’re radio controlled. Figuring out what frequency they’re on and blasting it should be trivial, if necessary.

    You can bet on that.

    And you cannot be sure whether it’s justified or not :)

  That’s the true cost of decades of protectionist demagoguery disguised as “national security”.
