Welcome to your weekly UAS news update we have 5 stories for you, DJI Ban Updates, Drone Stalker Arrested, a drones for good story, Flite Fest and a correction to last week's segment!
First up, a bill similar to the Countering CCP Drones Act is expected to be introduced in the Senate.
It’s reported that Jon Tester - Democrat Senator from Montana - will be the one introducing this bill, and would involve adding DJI to the FCC’s Covered List.
The items covered in the list can not be imported or used in the United States, and this includes prohibiting FCC approvals for FUTURE DJI equipment.
Please check the Drone Advocacy Alliance websites for the most up-to-date information and for instructions on how to reach out to your senators and representatives.
As far as the current bills, there's no new information from last week, we are still waiting to hear whether or not Countering CCP language has been added to the Senate version of the NDAA. The introduction of this bill by Senator Tester might be a sign that Stefanik's attempts were not successful last week.
Next up, a man from PA was arrested for using a drone to stalk and harass teenage girls.
Canonsburg Police received a few complaints about drones, but things took a turn after the suspect interacted with a 13-year-old girl.
During their investigation, police learned that 44-year-old Michael Brackman had allegedly used his drone to follow a 13-year-old 80-90 times, nearly any time she went outside.
Police also discovered 5 additional cases involving children.
Police then arrested Brackman, who is currently held on a $10,000 bond.
We’ll keep you updated if we see more.
Third, is a story from last month that just became public.
Lakewood, CO police used a drone to save an intoxicated teenager.
Police were called after a group of teenagers reported a friend had wandered off and that he was “very intoxicated”.
A drone operator with thermal was dispatched to the call and found the teen lying in a small bush.
Upon reaching the scene, the teen was not breathing and CPR was successfully performed.
Great job to the Lakewood Police Department!
Next up, Flite Fest is happening now!
If you're unfamiliar with Flite Fest, It's an RC Airplane meet-up that includes building foam airplanes, testing them, and then flying them.
The event is held in Malvern, Ohio, and goes through this weekend.
If you're in the area, check it out, build some airplanes, and be sure to hang out for combat!

    Once this bill goes through I can see China launching a drone war on America and the land of the free are free from all CCP made drones. And America is stuck with skydio and no other cheap drones to combat the swarm China is about to launch at us.

  • @TerryForeverYoung
    @TerryForeverYoung 14 годин тому

    The biggest thing that the 'powers that be' haven't even addressed is that pretty much any information the Chinese could glean from our drones, they can also just as easily get from say Google Earth, Google and Microsoft street views, posted social media pics in a certain location, etc. This is all such BS and is money driven, not security.

    Sen Marsha Blackburn's response to my DJI Ban opposition was received today. "Thank you for contacting me regarding the Chinese espionage activities in the United States." ?? I don't recall contacting her office about that subject at all. I can only surmise that the latest defense of the ban is to conflate DJI drones with Chinese balloons in US airspace in 2023 and "dealing with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)." "Combatting the CCP's influence in the U.S. is among my top priorities. You may be assured that I will keep your thoughtful comments in mind should legislation regarding Chinese espionage activities come before the full Senate." sigh....

    I stress a lot over having an observer when I fly my Avata 2. There is a remote park where most times there is NO ONE around for hundreds of yards, and a protected area. It’s also an RC registered site with two crossing runways. Just trying to get FPV experience, but can’t always find someone to help.

    It seems this targeting of DJI drones is aimed at controlling the commonly owned mini series that because they weigh under 250grams don't require a formal FAA license for recreational use. Additionally they are affordable unlike the USA drones which are bigger, bulkier, more expensive and require registration, a formal FAA license. I ask again where is the proof behind the claims and why haven't the facts been made available to the public under the freedom of information Act.

I know it has to switch to pro guards mode, but the spazzing out was enough for me not to try it again and I can't imagine how bad it would handle in the wind.
