Drone Innovations, Update To Part 137, And DJI Air 3 Leaks

Welcome to the Weekly UAS News Update. We have three stories for you this week. The first one is two new cool drone techs that we found, an update on the agricultural spraying approval – that’s part 137 if you’re not familiar, and then we have a DJI Air 3 leak that suggests that the drone will be released very soon. So let’s get to it.

Cool drone techs

Your first story this week is two cool drone techs that we found online. The first one is a tethered system that allows for unlimited flight time, and you’re going to say, “Well, yeah, isn’t that the goal of a Tethered drone?” Yes, that’s right. But what’s unique in this case is a European-based company called Atlas. They released their Atlas tethered system, which not only provides power to the drone, as you see in tethered systems, but also it provides two-way communication. This means that you can eliminate the need for a radio link.
