AMA Drone Report 01.30.17: Phantom 4 Dropped, Breeze 4K FPV, King Ground School

Also: AMA Expo East 2017, Dragonplate Quadcopter Kits, NASA Tracks Drone Air Flow 

Only 10 months since its introduction, DJI has informed its dealers that it is ending production of the basic Phantom 4 sUAS. And that's not all. In the message sent to dealers, the company said that the Phantom 3 is also out of production, while the stocks of the popular Mavic Pro and Mavic Pro combo are very low.

The memo to dealers said that while production is releasing more and more aircraft, DJI would be withholding all production to service their own clients on DJI.COM until the end of this month. At CES 2017, ANN met up with Yuneec Project Manager, Trent Siggard, to talk about upgrades for their Breeze 4K personal drone. Siggard says the Breeze was designed to be their easiest-to-fly drone, controllable by a cell phone app or handheld controller. But now, the Breeze 4K offers ‘first-person view’ FPV capabilities, which provide the operator with a stunning 720p HD “view from the cockpit.”  One of the true leaders in aviation education, for many decades now has been King Schools... lead by the talented and highly accomplished team of John and Martha King. Now... Drone pilots who want to fly their drones for non-recreational  purposes can quickly and conveniently pass their remote pilot test with the new King School’s online Drone Pilot Ground School and Test Prep Course. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of the AMA Drone Report!!!
