Back to the subject.  Skydio + Parrot 'Anafi' (not an abbreviation of 'another naff drone') = back to the drawing board because whatever DJI were planning on announcing was deemed to have insufficient WOW factor.  Pity 'cos I was hoping to change from a MavicAir to a an upgraded MavicPro why?  I recently flew over a cruise ship in Geiranger fjord, Norway.  It blotted out all RF... fortunately the full auto RTH worked.

Right.  So you have Occusync which has won awards and greatly respected for just how good it is for the power and bands allowed and then fly the drone close to something that has huge multiband RF emitters and expect a new drone to be better!?The air is even worse, a weaker protocol with far less penetration and resiliance and you lost connection?  Strange that.  Who'd have thought it....

Your drone puts out under a watt.  Its competing with various band emitters pumping out kilowatts of RF.  Of course its going to stop working.  You're too close.  Simple as that.

(That aside, Norway you cant legally go within 150m of the boat anyway).

Most likely whatever DJI were announcing was a production issue.  Because that's where they've always failed.  Plus there is STILL no viable competition to the 2 year old Mavic so why rush?

Recommendations and law are very different. You stated that there have been no other changes to the law other than the newly defined boundary of airports... I simply corrected you as you have given wrong information in that regard.

Its unchanged.  The same clauses to the ANO apply before and after.  Distance to airport being fixed is the only new law with an actual figure.

No it's not - I suggest you read up then bore someone else with your trolling.

Or maybe you should and stop pretending things have changed when the identical offence was available before and after the changes of the law.  You could be prosecuted before and can be prosecuted after.  The ANO has more than enough clauses to allow for it.

The drone boom continues. Today, they are presented from children, who break down instantly to the present, those that can do a lot of damage both in the airport zone and in the interference with privacy. It is urgent to resolve this. Military dronesrobot in general, are already interstate relations and interference in everything and everyone. But how much benefit from movies, car speed control, etc.
