DJI FPV DRONE ALSO CONFIRMED IN FCC FILINGS – After first seeing the DJI FPV Goggles V2 and the DJI FPV Remote Controller 2 show up in FCC filings earlier today, we were wondering when the DJI FPV Drone would show up. Well, we didn't have to wait very long as that just happened a few minutes ago.

DRONEXL AND DRONEWATCH PARTNER TO BRING YOU MORE INTERNATIONAL DRONE NEWS! – DroneXL has partnered with the Dutch drone News website Dronewatch to bring you more international drone news. A selection of Dronewatch articles will be made available in English to an international audience. Conversely, articles from DroneXL will also appear on Dronewatch. The first articles have now been exchanged back and forth.

DJI FPV GOGGLES V2 AND DJI FPV REMOTE CONTROLLER 2 CONFIRMED IN FCC FILINGS – The DJI FPV Goggles V2 and DJI FPV Remote Controller 2 have been confirmed in FCC filings that were made public just minutes ago. FCC filings can now be released much closer to the actual launch date of a new product, meaning that there is a very good chance that we will see the new DJI PFV Drone come to the market before the Holiday Shopping season kicks off (if it hasn't already).

TWO MORE EXECUTIVES HAVE LEFT DJI NORTH AMERICA – 2020 has been a turbulent year for DJI. The Coronavirus pandemic and the ongoing Data Security concerns expressed by some U.S. Government members have had a significant impact on the Chinese drone maker. Furthermore, DJI's Long March reforms have increased the Chinese influence over the global organization. This shift in the culture and power structure has frustrated many North American employees, company insiders told DroneXL. Earlier in the year, DJI laid off a significant number of employees throughout its global organization. Others saw the writing on the wall and left the company in pursuit of better opportunities. Today, we can report that two more executives have left DJI North America.
