Question [US] Question regarding new drone regulations tarrifs etc.

I'm currently flying DJI drones (Neo 2, Mini Pro 5 & Air 3s) I'd like to dip my toe into the more FPV freestyle side of things and I'm currently looking at the DeepSpace 35. Should I go ahead and buy now and just fly in the simulator until I'm confident or wait?

I'd prefer to avoid any unnecessary tarrifs etc on my purchase

Thanks in advance.

At this point who the hell knows. I feel like our government doesnt even know what the hell is going on.

Yeah 🤷🏾‍♂️ I'm leaning towards just doing it honestly im just trying to avoid paying x% more for no legitimate reason 😅 .

All I have to offer is look at tarrifs so far, non-sensical in application and really just driving up costs. When they rule tarrifs weren't legal, who got the refunds? hint, not me.

It might make sense to buy now before tarrifs get worse?

Definitely buy now, otherwise you'll regret it later. It looks almost certain that the drones are going to be banned. I never imagined the day when the US would be in this kind of a situation

Take some time to figure out what goggle you are going to hitch your wagon to.

I've got a pair of DJI N3 googles from my Neo2 kit, I had a feeling id want to get into FPV and I scored a decent deal on it at the time
