My plan is to keep using what DJI products i currently own. If it involves using the airwaves without FCC approval, then so be it.

How will the band affect people that already own Dji products I heard that if you already own it it will not apply to your drone

More dynamic range is sorely needed. An APS-C sized sensor would be the next step up. Also, obviously, new improved battery technology for longer flights. Also, a pro level controller like the T40 controller rather than a consumer level controller like you get with current Mavics would be nice - bigger screen, better quality control sticks, custom buttons

Mavic 4 hopefully has a 24mm and 70mm equivalent lenses with both having 4/3 Rd sensors.

Thanks very much for this report. By now most drone operators in the U.S. are aware of the impending ban of DJI products. Most U.S. operators are keenly aware that their livelihoods are at stake if an all-out ban is implemented immediately following passage of the legislation. U.S. drone operators lack access to the political influence necessary to prevent the ban. It looks unlikely an exception will be granted for existing DJI equipment. I hope I'm wrong, and Congress will consider the harm done to law enforcement, public safety and first responder organizations.
