Drone News: The Air Sentinel App, New Skydio Drone, and a DJI Event Next Week

Welcome to your weekly news update, we have 3 stories for you
this week, The Air Sentinel App, New Skydio Drone, and DJI event
next week! 





First up this week is the Air Sentinel app, who has partnered
with DroneResponders to provide remote ID information to Public
Safety.


If you’re unfamiliar with Air Sentinel, it’s an app that allows
you to pick up remote ID broadcast information but excludes the
location of the pilot.


Only authorized users can access pilot location information via
logging into the app, and they must prove they are public safety
before being granted access to pilot location.


Air Sentinel is free to download on Android at this time, and it
is one of the apps we tested in this video (Point - Lets add the
thumbnail of the RID test video).








Next up this week is the new Skydio X10.


The X10 is Skydio’s newest enterprise drone, with a FLIR Boson+
640X512 Radiometric, a 1 inch, 50 megapixel wide camera, and a 64
megapixel zoom camera. 


The X10 will also have other payloads with the V100-L coming
soon. 


The V100-L will have the same wide and zoom camera with a
flashlight instead of the thermal camera.


The X10 has a 40 minute maximum flight time, 4 payload bays, 5G
optional connectivity, and a 7.5 mile range. 


Pretty interesting changes from the X2, we’re interested in
getting one to test! 





And finally, DJI has announced an even this coming Monday, we
assume to be the release of the Mini 4 Pro! 


The event “Mini to the Max” will release at 9 AM Eastern Time.


Based on pictures, the Mini 4 has redesigned obstacle avoidance,
a downward facing LED, and adjusted front legs! 


We’ll see if this is indeed the new Mini drone we’ve seen so many
leaks about! 





Before we go, we’ll be at the Colorado Drone Airshow in Fort
Collins Colorado in two weeks! 


The event is free, and we’ll be doing first flights for people
who haven’t ever flown drones before! 





Have a great weekend, and we’ll see you next week!
