The missive highlights the real root issue: if the USA was so “ahead” with innovation, then why is DJI still the behemoth benchmark they are trying to diminish?

Willi F.:

  • “… American dominance should come from innovation, not insulation.”
  • “There is a foreign drone manufacturer today that, whether people want to admit it or not, has become the benchmark for much of the UAS industry. The answer should not simply be to remove that benchmark from the American marketplace, the answer should be to beat it.”

Launching a new business, particularly an aerial business, goes way beyond a mere play on the words: it is an exhilaration of all the elements you would imagine… combined.

The truly best part is being given an opportunity to stretch in new industries and areas of commerce that, until now, I had only a cursory understanding of how they operated. A purpose-driven chance to dive deeply into the data, and its’ pragmatic uses, in engineering, mapping, planning, and project management has been eye-opening.
