Drone Community - Quick Heads Up
(This is from an E-mail I received today, but just incase you are not on their mailing list...here it is. Help advocate for the drone community)

The FCC has taken actions that could prevent new DJI and other foreign-made drone technology from entering the U.S. market. This could impact a lot of us who rely on these tools for work, safety, and creativity.

DJI has filed a petition asking the FCC to reconsider, and they are currently accepting public comments.

If you use drones in any capacity, this is a chance to share how this technology supports your work or how losing access could affect you.

How to submit a comment:
• Go to: https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings/express
• Enter proceeding number: 26-22 (DJI)
• Fill in your information
• Briefly share how drones are important to your work
• Submit

(Optional: You can also submit under 26-23 for Autel)

The most helpful responses are respectful and based on real-world experience.

This only takes a few minutes, but it helps ensure our industry is properly represented.

Safe flying ✈️

Why “Drone Pilot” Is a Misleading Term — and Why UAV Matters

In casual conversation, the word drone has become synonymous with a toy: something bought at a mall kiosk, flown for fun, and frequently crashed. While that association may be harmless for hobbyists, it creates a persistent misunderstanding for professionals who operate aircraft under strict federal regulation.

What many people do not realize is that professional drone operators are not hobbyists.

Under U.S. law, commercial aerial operations fall under the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Professional operators are required to hold a Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate, maintain aircraft registration, carry aviation-specific liability insurance, and comply with airspace, weather, and operational limitations that mirror those applied to manned aviation.

In technical and regulatory contexts, the correct term is UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) or sUAS (small Unmanned Aircraft System). These are aircraft—not toys—used for industrial inspection, construction progress tracking, public safety, agriculture, mapping, and thermal analysis.

The distinction matters.

A UAV pilot:

-Operates within controlled airspace

-Performs pre-flight risk assessments

-Understands aeronautical charts, weather patterns, and airspace classifications

-Is legally accountable for aircraft behavior and safety

-May carry specialized certifications, such as thermal imaging credentials

The only fundamental difference between a UAV pilot and a helicopter pilot is where the pilot sits—not the level of responsibility, training, or regulatory oversight.

When professional aerial work is dismissed as a “hobby,” it diminishes the seriousness of aviation safety and the skill required to operate legally and ethically. Words shape perception, and perception shapes value.

For that reason, many professionals are shifting away from the word drone and toward UAV pilot, UAS operator, or commercial remote pilot—terms that accurately reflect the discipline, regulation, and expertise involved.

This is not about semantics.
It is about recognizing that unmanned aviation is still aviation.
