There’s a reason scientists are increasingly turning to drones to understand climate change, and a new mission in Greenland shows exactly why.

There’s a reason drones often sit in online carts longer than they should. It’s not just about cost; it’s the friction. Too many controls. Too much setup. Too many things that can go wrong in the first five minutes. DJI Flip was designed to chip away at that hesitation. And now, with a fresh round of all-time low discounts across its lineup, it’s suddenly stepping into a much more tempting territory for everyday buyers.

The future of warfare may look very different from what most people imagine, and the US Army just offered a glimpse of it. In a recent live-fire exercise at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, the 101st Airborne Division tested how drones can work side-by-side with soldiers in real combat scenarios. The takeaway? Drones aren’t just helpful tools anymore; they’re quickly becoming the first line of action on the battlefield.

Fly your drone in the wrong place in the US, and it could cost you more than just your gear. It could hit your wallet with fines exceeding $100,000, and even land you behind bars.

The DJI Mini 4K, one of the easiest, most beginner-friendly drones you can buy right now, has just dropped to its lowest price ever. And we’re not talking about a small discount deal. These are the kind of prices that make you double-check if it’s real.

The United States has exempted four foreign-made drones from its sweeping import ban. See the latest additions to a list that’s quietly getting longer…

DJI may be gearing up to drop its next immersive FPV drone, Avata 360, on March 26. But in a move that’s far more relevant for US buyers today, the company has quietly slashed prices on its current-gen FPV favorite, the DJI Avata 2.

For years, there’s been a clear line in the drone world: spend real money, or settle for something that feels like a toy. The DJI Mini 3 just erased that line.

A growing wave of illegal drone flights is turning one of Vietnam’s busiest coastal tourist hubs into an aviation headache, and it’s starting to sound like a cautionary tale for the rest of the world.

The Federal Aviation Administration is taking a major step toward tackling illegal and unauthorized drone operations, rolling out a new tool designed to give law enforcement real-time clarity on who’s flying in US airspace, and whether they’re doing it legally.

DroneShield is making a significant move to deepen its presence in Europe, announcing a new counter-drone manufacturing operation within the EU as demand for anti-UAS systems ramps up across the region.

Insta360-backed Antigravity is giving US buyers a rare reason to finally pull the trigger on one of the most unique drones on the market right now. The Antigravity A1 8K 360 drone — still the only consumer drone you can officially buy in the United States with true 8K 360 capture — is now available at a flat 20% discount as part of a limited-time Spring Sale. And the best part is, the deal lands just weeks before a major April software update that adds new creative tools designed to make flying (and filming) feel almost effortless.

A California startup developing large autonomous cargo drones has landed a key role in a new federal program aimed at accelerating the integration of electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft in the United States.

Law enforcement agencies across the United States are increasingly encountering drones at public gatherings, emergency scenes, and sensitive locations. And as those encounters grow more common, officers on the ground need quick, reliable ways to understand what’s flying nearby. That’s the challenge Zing Drone Solutions hopes to address with a new handheld device called Z-SCAN MINI.

The first teaser was pure mystery. DJI released a short clip showing a drone flying aggressive first-person FPV lines through cityscapes. The footage was wild: fireworks exploding against the night sky, smooth dives and sweeping camera moves, and then a surreal “tiny planet” shot where the entire world wrapped around the camera.

Public safety agencies across the United States have been rapidly expanding their drone programs in recent years… from police departments using drones to respond to emergency calls to firefighters deploying them for situational awareness during wildfires. Now, one of the world’s most widely used drone fleet management platforms is trying to make it easier for those programs to get off the ground.

A software engineer who uncovered a major vulnerability in DJI’s cloud infrastructure — one that potentially exposed thousands of robot vacuum devices — has been promised a $30,000 reward from the company.

AIRINS, the company formerly known as Soarability, has unveiled new multi-sensor gas detection configurations for DJI drones, designed to capture richer environmental and industrial gas data during a single flight.

A new drone company backed by the sons of US President Donald Trump is preparing to go public, just as Washington pours billions into building a domestic drone industry.

Drone pilots flying the DJI Mini 4 Pro, Matrice 4 series, and Matrice 400 now have a faster way to turn aerial footage into detailed 3D models directly in the field.

Drones are becoming a bigger part of everyday operations, from infrastructure inspections to emergency response. But as their numbers grow, so does the challenge of keeping sensitive airspace secure. Now, the Michigan State Capitol is taking a major step to tackle that issue.
