Drone News: Pilot Institute Update, Mini 3 Photos Leaked, Mavic 3 Enterprise, and Alta X Blue UAS

Published: April 22, 2022, 1 p.m.

This week in drone news; Pilot Institute wiki & state facebook groups were released this week, pictures leaked of the DJI Mini 3, did DJI leak the Mavic 3 enterprise, and the Alta X has made the Blue UAS 2.0 list!

We know you guys have trouble finding a single resource for local drone regulations.

Over the last few months, we have been working hard to create a source that you can edit and update.

We just released our new wiki page which contains not only all the local drone regulation, but suggestions for places to fly locally. 

The best part is, that we want your contribution to tell us where you love to fly in your state, as well as any other drone laws we didn’t find.

Up and down vote locations to fly

Submit a photo and suggest places to fly

Submit new or updated regulation

The Phoenix page is the perfect example of what we will achieve for the rest of the country. 

Check it out at pilotinstitute.com/drones

We’ve also launched Facebook groups for each state! 

This is to help you network and get into your local UAS community.

This is a perfect place to organize meetups and learn about the local regulations and fight existing or new drone laws (alongside organizations like DSPA). 

Join your state’s group!

The FreeFly Alta X is now a Blue UAS!

The DIU has added the Alta X, bringing the list to 8 aircraft total!

The Alta X is a multi-rotor with a wide range of payloads, including EO/IR gimbaled cameras, Mapping cameras, LIDAR, and delivery capabilities.

With the 35 lb payload and 50-minute flight time, the military will likely add additional payloads.
