I really appreciate the comparison shots and videos. Thank you for your valuable time to put this together. Unlike the other commentor, I don't care about the insides being the same if the controls work as well or better, and the media is equivalent quality or better . Why would I care about the insides? But looking at the output on these comparison shoots on a T.V. flat screen, I don't think it's bias to say the DJI looks sharper (more accurate). The smaller twigs on the trees were more distinguishable on DJI, but appear as gray mass (blur) on Specta... IMHO.

@FlyinFlynnMedia 2 месяца назад

Great comparison Jack. It sure looks like they are essentially the same drone. It will be interesting what kind of support is available with Specta. Appreciate you putting this together!

@Matanumi 2 месяца назад

That's probably what I'm most curious about.

@tech9251 2 месяца назад

Rumor is it's updating via the DJI CDN. The details of the manufacturing and branding may be opaque but the probability is extremely high that it's essentially the same device. You can be sure that DJI would come down like a ton of bricks on anyone randomly selling a clone of the drone, the controller, the app, and even the manual! So, there's a purpose involved, and so-called "white label" devices are not an uncommon marketing strategy in many industries. Since this version apparently doesn't offer the DJI extended support options, it may be aimed primarily at other market segments. I tend to doubt that it's a serious attempt to avoid (theoretical) consumer U.S. bans. The probability of a broad consumer-level ban of these drones being passed and surviving court challenges is very low, and it wouldn't fool regulators anyway.

@steveday2022 2 месяца назад

I agree w/you saying that it's very low probability that DJI would be completely banned. If you look at the bill tracker for (I think it's H.R. 2864), it shows 1% chance.

Thank you for taking the time to put the comparison together and have a question on the Geo lock. I occasionally fly in what is considered an Enhanced Warning Zones by DJI. DJI GEO would prompt me at the time of flight to unlock the zone using the same steps as in an Authorization Zone... but I don't require a verified account or an internet connection at the time of my flight. Does Specta give you the same or similar ability to request an unlock? Also, does the Specta require you to setup an account before flying the drone and the ability to upload flights?

You can not get them in the same configs. DJI with this remote is flymore only and the Specta has no RC-N2 option. They are the same DJI drone but DJI has locked out accessories like batts and some features with firmware on the Spectas.

I'm glad to see that they are basically the same drone for roughly the same price. So basically this is just a "Congress Dodger Air" drone. (One of these DJI shell companies should straight up come out with model numbers that start with CD for congress dodger.) Anyway, it's good to know that we'll have some alternatives when this stupid law passes. I think we just have to get used to the name of the drone company changing with the day of the week. The biggest loss will of course be the replacement plans if you currently pay for those.

I have now read two different publications online that specifically name your channel and another. This could be good, but it could also be bad, depending on what happens with this "ban" . Specta could be our only way of recieving Dji level equipment if Dji is actually banned and now it's out there for the government to see. I have mixed feelings on this.

@gpierre90 Месяц назад

Hi, I love DJI products and own a Mavic 2, I am thinking of upgrading to an Air 3, however now I learn about a similar product the Specta Air and both looks the same!, Are both companies collaborating? Already got an answer from another video and they said No there's no collaboration or affiliation. Can someone confirm? Anyway everyone knows that Chinese love to copy someone else's work in this case, it seems Specta copied DJI, it seems there's no laws which prohibits that in China and no one minds it. Which means it would come down to price. I want the Air 3, but if Specta Air is priced less and is more affordable, I could lean towards the Specta Air.
