An add here states "Aeronavics SkyJib-X4 Ti-QR, one of the chosen approved few by the FAA for commercial flight"? Is there any truth to this? Is there a list from the FAA of approved multirotors that any of us interested in going commercial can view?
Before I go plunging more money into a Rusty's UAP1 hex, which unfortunately is no longer available as he recently decided to get out of the business, is there an approved list by the FAA as to which manufacturers, if any, they have approved?
I am planning to install a Super X on this with a Quadframe 3 axis and CP control. Given the latest thread on XA status for support should I be concerned that they too will not be an approved vendor if they no longer exist or offer support in the US?
After watching the FAA hearing yesterday I would imagine somewhere down the road there will be a whole list of equipment and manufactures that they will require/approve for commercial use so I'm just trying to avoid throwing more money into a losing proposition, it's difficult enough to try and make advancements without now worrying about a list of qualified vendors, but it doesn't surprise me if there is. Mine you I'm talking about flying a 55 lb movie machine but something in the 8-15 lb range.
Thanks,
John
