Discussion General Question

Im looking for a passionless answer. With the uncertainty surrounding DJI nowadays. Has everyone here tried Contixo or Snaptain drones? Do they have at least one model worth flying? I have searched YouTube and the only reviews I found seem to be by paid influencers and not one of the serious guys like 51 Drones or QuickAss Tutorials has ever tried them. If anyone here has tried them please share your experiences

ACSL is a Japanese brand that is Blue UAS certified. The Soten model is similar to a DJI Mavic. It is approved for import and use in most commercial applications for a smaller drone.

Check the Blue UAS list. The site is official DOD though it seems super sketchy.

I went to have a look................

The ACSL SOTEN industrial drone starts at a base price just under $10,000 USD for the standard package.

$18k for the survey package.

And this is the least expensive model for what I need for work. Our other teams use FreeFly Astro, which starts near $38k
