The first leaks of the forthcoming Air3S have arrived to Twitter...

Air3S

It seems to have 2 cameras... 1 inch for the main sensor and 1/1.3 for the teleobjective???

Thanks for sharing.

You are welcome and it would be interesting to hear your thoughts about this new model

I have the Air 3 so I'd have to take a long look at what the improvements and upgrades are.  Secondly, I need to see if the DJI ban goes through for the US.

Yep, in USA you have the DJI ban and us in Europe have stupid drone regulations...

Depends I guess on when the Air3s is released , if it is before the ( possible) effective date of the ban starting then you can fly as it would not effect that model,as it stands now.

The one thing to remember is that the FCC has the power to create a process to revoke the equipment authorizations for existing drone models in the future.

I am well aware of that situation.

Wish I had more excitement for this new release,but the goofy ban has pretty much taken that excitement away

Interesting to see what really comes out!

Will be interesting or even disheartening whichever way it goes.  

DowntownRDB Posted at 6-23 04:02

Yeah indeed.

Montfrooij Posted at 6-23 05:56
Yeah indeed.

It appears that it will be at least weeks, even months before it all gets hashed out and reconciled between the House and the Senate.  So in the meantime we just continue to fly and have fun while we can.

I really wonder what will happen with all the DJI flyers over there.

When the dust settles we will still be flying I think.

I for sure hope so (for you guys)

It really all depends on the wording in the final bill that gets passed.  It's possible that any newly released drones will be prohibited but it is also possible that if the FCC revokes DJI licenses then that would ground all previous drones as well.  Another outcome is the CCP amendment to the NDAA bill could be stripped out altogether but I wouldn't count on that happening as several Senators are pushing for the same language as was included in the House bill with respect towards DJI drones.

I don't like these global politics getting mixed up with regular flyers.
I do understand that China has a lot of power with all these drones flying around, but that is what you get when your whole economy is based on import and not making stuff yourself.

The other thing that is not being discussed openly is with all the expansion of drone delivery by large corporations they are trying to put recreational flyers out of business to make air space available solely to these corporations.  They have well funded and powerful advocates so they usually get their way.

Ouch. I don't like how these things go.

Rumors as usual. In regards to the US ban, the DJI Fly app will not be uploading any flights to china’s servers or anywhere as their article explains. I’d suggest connecting up your drone and go to the DJI article regrading the changes in the next app update. Since DJI will have no locations, thumbnails of any other information as the US has been reporting as a problrm, I’m curious to see what the US extreme liberal politicians will have to say.

Just the way the greedy big corporations work.

They are never happy regardless of how big their annual profits are.  

From the King James Bible, 1 Timothy 6:10: “For the love of money is the root of all of evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.”

There is so many things we can learn if we just read and understand.

Good evening
brand new to Drones , just went out and bought a Air3 and wow so impressed , been flying a few hrs a day since I got it , but would like better camera setup. As far as I can gather the Mavic 3 Pro  is better but a  bit older and in this sense the Air 3 is pretty close (performance wise )  , point being I'm already itching to get my hands on   3s/4 Air

Nothing will happen,because none of them understand anything about drones,only about a fabricated fear factor and that is all.
