Most people know that Autel is most famous for its vehicle scanners. A while back a sub company under the name "Otofix" that uses the same familiar Autel scanner software started up. I can't say if the hardware is the same. I suspect this is something Chinese companies are doing to sell some products at lower prices. I hadn't thought of the tariff angle but that may be at play too. I think your take on this is sound Jack.

After your hints the new SE is SPECTA. Instead of discontinue older drones they sold the license to go on. It’s a win/win situation because owners will still get batteries. DJI is not in need to care anymore but there’s still an income. Nothing chances, drone-owners are still suggesting to go with DJI if you intend to buy a product of quality.

@jeffrey_live1748 2 месяца назад

I think you hit it square on with DJI probably has a few of these lying around. Probably like many, when I upgraded from my Air2S the Air3 wasn't appealing enough. I bought the Mini 4 Pro which other than the double camera and higher top speed is everything the Air3 is except quieter and more portable. Honestly I'm hoping for an Air3S with a killer camera that I will buy when it comes.

I would like to specta use different colours in their drones, like maybe have the new specta mini in a darker colour gray, like the DJI Mavic 3, this would disginguish them better from their counterpart DJI, I do wonder what mini they have produced? is it the Mini 2 frame or the newer Mini 3/4 frame?

Currently the batteries are not swappable with each the "other" drone. Air3 batts don't work in the Specta, and same the other way around. They fit, but throw an error saying it's not a compatible battery in software - won't launch. They will both fit in the same charger and that works fine.

@jaxturner7288 2 месяца назад

@@w.e.s. of course your car doesn’t attempt to keep you from driving into Area 51, but what does? A fence. Wow what a concept, maybe they could make some sort of fences to control drones so they don’t go places they shouldn’t, maybe call it a geo tec fence or something similar? Then cars and drones could be locked or fenced out of restricted areas buy using different versions of the same thing, fences. Oh wait that’s not a new concept? So then, is it actually your drone itself that locks you out of geo fenced locations? Or is it actually an electronic version of a fence that is restricting your drone’s travel, just as a chain link fence restricts where you drive in your car and the car itself doesn’t. Besides, nothing stopping you from launching your drone from an authorized area and then flying your drone forcefully into a geo fence and seeing how far you get either. Either way you are only hindered by the effectiveness of the fence trying to keep you out and not your vehicle or drone itself. Without the fence in place to stop your travel you would drive right through in both situations because again, it’s a fence keeping you out. Not your drone or car. Stay in denial if you want to but you are definitely restricted from driving your car through areas that are locked out, fenced off, restricted whatever you want to call it. Same same dummy. Just like your car’s travel speed is limited by highway speed limits and road laws, not by your car itself. Sensing a pattern here? Just because you buy and own something doesn’t mean you can do anything you want with it and take it anywhere it could possibly ever go. Simply owning a car/drone/plane/boat/horse/dog doesn’t mean you can drive/ fly/ sail/ ride/ walk absolutely anywhere and everywhere those things can potentially go. With all of them you are controlled and restricted in traveling with them one way or another. Oftentimes it’s those pesky fences of all kinds , other times it’s the local laws restricting your freedom of movement with your whatever, rarely is it that the car/drone/ boat/horse/dog refuses your commands without a good reason, malfunction or a fence in the way. 👌

I believe DJI is moving the Air 3 sideways in order to bring out an Air 3s or Air 3Pro. I think they are slowly learning their lesson about quick releases. One example is the Mini 3 Pro and Mini 4 Pro. The 3 Pro got left in the dust. This way they are able to deplete their stock of earlier versions without undermining their price structure. IMHO.

As before, this seems to be a simple one to me. With all the bands the FAA and others are trying to pass against DJI drones, which is why don't own one and will not own one, DJI is doing a "work around". They couldn't just change their name from DJI, they also had to change some things in the drone so technically it is not a "DJI". SAME TYLENOL, DIFFERENT FORMULA 😂.

@kmoecub 2 месяца назад

The only proposed bans on DJI are for governmental use. That's entirely within the bounds of an Executive Order (from the POTUS) when it comes to Federal agencies. Any bans for state agencies have to be approved either by said state agency, state legislature, or by an act of Congress. As a private citizen you are free to own a DJI drone without restriction, until and unless there is a law passed through Congress and signed by the POTUS. Please be informed so you can be a better citizen.

@allabouthim03 2 месяца назад

@@kmoecubI totally agree with you. But what you said is my point. DJI makes a large variety of drones from simple consumer, professional, industrial and surveillance and who knows what else.

By diversification I feel they are trying to get around the restrictions.
