    XM2 PURSUIT, a global aerial solution provider catering to film, visual effects, television and infrastructure industries, has released Tango II, its newest aircraft for commercial and industrial use. Superior to its groundbreaking XM2 Tango predecessor, the Tango II is billed as being the only drone aircraft of its kind to satisfy all needs for film and industrial applications.

    Designed and constructed by XM2 PURSUIT’s expert teams of aerial pilots and engineers, Tango II was created with a strong knowledge of film and industrial applications. The result is a powerful and safe platform capable of lifting a wide variety of payloads–including cinematography cameras, VFX and industrial sensors, as well as lighting rigs.

    The new Tango II offers a number of unique features built for the serious drone operator, including:

    • Co-pilot flight and maintenance assistant with HELIX flight controller
    • High-Definition FPV camera with controllable tilt
    • Fully autonomous control without No Fly Zone restrictions
    • Designed for operation from moving platforms
    • Dual camera mount capabilities that allow for both over and underslung content capture
    • 40 km/25 mi control range
    • A revolutionary new dampener that produces unmatched stability for silky smooth footage even when utilizing long lenses
    • Retractable and tool-free quick release landing gear complete with a custom control board for improved performance across a wider range of temperatures
    • Custom carry case for optimal portability, meeting the weight and size restrictions to enable travel on any passenger airline

    “Our new Tango II aircraft doubles down on performance, allowing pilots to enjoy integrated autonomous flight capabilities with the unmatched benefits of extended flight times and heavy payloads,” said Stephen Oh, leader of XM2 PURSUIT. “When paired with our proprietary XM2 Helix flight controller, Tango II provides freedom and flexibility to experienced drone operators while achieving superb flight characteristics up to a range of 40 kilometers.”

    Recent XM2 Tango television and film credits include: No Time to Die, Fast & Furious 9, Westworld and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

    Apple and Google Face UK Investigation Into Mobile Browser Dominance

    Apple and Google aren't giving consumers a genuine choice of mobile web browsers, a British watchdog said Friday in a report that recommends they face an investigation under new U.K. digital rules taking effect next year.

    The Competition and Markets Authority took aim at Apple, saying the iPhone maker's tactics hold back innovation by stopping rivals from giving users new features like faster webpage loading. Apple does this by restricting progressive web apps, which don't need to be downloaded from an app store and aren't subject to app store commissions, the report said.

    "This technology is not able to fully take off on iOS devices," the watchdog said in a provisional report on its investigation into mobile browsers that it opened after an initial study concluded that Apple and Google effectively have a chokehold on "mobile ecosystems."

    The CMA's report also found that Apple and Google manipulate the choices given to mobile phone users to make their own browsers "the clearest or easiest option."

    And it said that the a revenue-sharing deal between the two U.S. Big Tech companies "significantly reduces their financial incentives" to compete in mobile browsers on Apple's iOS operating system for iPhones.

    Both companies said they will "engage constructively" with the CMA.

    Apple said it disagreed with the findings and said it was concerned that the recommendations would undermine user privacy and security.

    Google said the openness of its Android mobile operating system "has helped to expand choice, reduce prices and democratize access to smartphones and apps" and that it's "committed to open platforms that empower consumers."
