DJI Drone Ban: What Now?
How are we feeling about this drone ban, this DJI drone ban? If you don't know what's going on, you've probably missed a whole lot of information that has been years in the making. As a freelance videographer and drone pilot, I want to shed light on the recent FCC decision that has put DJI drones in a tough spot. This ban is not just a minor inconvenience; it could significantly impact the drone community and the technology we rely on.
