My Mavic Pro’s illegal now, thanks to this nonsense.
Wait, what? What happened?
How’s your battery life holding up?
They gave me a drone for work, and I ended up sending it back.
I’ll just build my own before buying their overpriced junk.
Remember when DIY PCs changed the market back in the day? I think we’re going to see the same with drones.
This is anti-competitive and anti-American.
This guy’s just a bully trying to punch above his weight.
Why doesn’t any American company care about the consumer market? It’s all about military contracts now.
Skydio’s a joke compared to DJI.
Anyone still buying Skydio drones? We should all be boycotting them.
Talking about “pain”? Skydio should worry about catching up to DJI first. They’re so far behind it’s laughable.
Said it before and I’ll say it again, Skydio’s trash.
The original post’s just shilling for DJI, but that doesn’t change the fact that Skydio’s messing up.

Whether the OP’s biased or not, it doesn’t change Skydio’s behavior. They can’t compete with DJI and it shows.

Yeah, but where’s the proof Skydio lobbied for this bill? Until we see that, it’s just speculation.

It’s well-known Skydio’s behind the push. Just look at who’s talking about it.

I’ll hate them too if you show me hard evidence.

There are plenty of links and discussions about it, just gotta dig in. The loudest denials usually hide the truth.
@Rowan
Found some stuff on other companies too. Skydio’s not alone in this game.
Which drone company had to scramble with Secret Service when Trump got shot? Seems like a Skydio screw-up.

Got a source for that? I read that they didn’t even get a flight waiver for the event.
