Any suggestions for a Made in USA drone that is “reasonably” priced for tower inspections? Three main requirements that have been communicated are made in USA, at least 20MP camera, able to handle >30mph winds. Any thoughts?

Just curious, but what waivers are you looking to apply for?

This really is one of the major problems with the Android OS vs iOS. Android lets any app basically have unfettered access to anything on the phone. Where iOS notifies users and allows them to control access to things like address book, calendars, etc. If using a tablet for flying, then use an...

I don’t understand why everybody thinks Autel is a US company. They are as Chinese as DJI! They do have support and marketing in their US based subsidiary, but they are 100% Chinese

In my opinion, if you can't make it perfect, then make the transitions obvious so that they know that time has elapsed. Then it looks like its done on purpose. If done right, it can still look great.

That isn't what they are telling you at all. They are telling you they have determined that is a high risk area so you have to jump a bit higher to get through their hoops. Did you try to do the custom unlock on site or did you do it in advance? It sounds a bit like you waited to do it out in...

Keep in mind that these new rules for flight over people and night flights won't be implemented until sometime after the Remote ID rules are established and implemented. It is my understanding that the NPRM for Remote ID is likely to be published later this month. Also, as @AviLozowick...

Here are the specifics you are looking for: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2019/05/17/2019-10169/exception-for-limited-recreational-operations-of-unmanned-aircraft See Section I of the document, it states: "Operators of small unmanned aircraft (also referred to as drones) for...
