Story of DJI: How Top Drone Company Was Created

In this video, I will tell the story of the founding of DJI, which today is the global leader in drone manufacturing. You'll learn about the journey of its founder, Frank Tao (Wang Tao), his passion for UAVs, and the university where he studied. Special attention is given to his mentor, Professor Li Zexiang, who played a significant role in DJI’s success. You'll also learn the principles of how helicopters work in detail, which will be helpful for understanding other DJI-related videos on the channel.

DJI was the first product that I respected from China. More power to them if all production quality can follow.

Fascinating. Having a keen interest in Electronics, and in flight with UAV's, I found this video to be most enlightening. Looking forward to more in the series. Greetings from Ontario, Canada.

You guys did an absolutely amazing job on the video!

Single prop rpm is a constant speed in which pitch angle is controlled by pilot to change vehicle position and only rear rotor changes it’s rpm to change heading . Main rotor 200-600 rpm, higher rpm for smaller Helicopters, tail rotor rpm is about 5-6:1 ratio at approximately
2500 - 3600 rpm.
Where as lets say that a dji mini 3 pro camera drone propellers spin around 5000 and as much 10000 rpm. That are all changing constantly for it to move direction .

Innovation: that’s what the US is currently eliminating.

Great video, thanks! Though investing 30min into basic Chinese pronunciation would be worth it before making the next China focused video.
