I feel you my friend. This rule change has been eating me up for the last month , but I think I made a good choice with the parrot ANAFI usa . I liked the the Skydio, but it was just way to much money for the one they have offered that was DOD NDAA approved around$12,000 for the basic kit, and the reviews on the suport had me worried so I just could not justify it , Autel has a enterprise drone https://www.rmus.com/products/au ... dles-thermal-and-6k for about $2800 plus extra's and i almost went with it over the parrot because of cost was so much cheaper. But that old saying you get what you pay for kept coming to mind. and when you compare the 2 drones side by side the parrot does a lot more.
As I said I feel you because I was the same way as you are now in decided what to do on purchasing a new drone and was not sure what direction i should go in and i found this website https://advexure.com/pages/ndaa-compliant-blue-uas that help me find a NDAA blue/green compliant drone , the one i chose was blue label for military which will cover me for everything. But only came with 2 - 35 min batteries, so I bought 2 more of the the bigger 56 min batteries at $399 each.
Its ridiculous that USA enterprise drones cost about 4x more than the DJI M3E-T flymore, so its going to hurt no matter what you get to be NDAA compliant, So you will really have to do some research on which one of these label drones will fit your needs best.
Best of Luck |
