Since the exemption was granted, I (Dacoda Bartels) have determined the need to add the DJI Inspire 1 quadcopter to the exemption in order to remain competitive a nd enhance services affor ded my customers. The airworthiness of the DJI Inspire 1 is materially similar and a manufactured by the same company (DJI) as the already approved S1000. The DJI Inspire 1 has a gross weight under 55 pounds, forward speeds of less than 50 knots and an a ltitude restriction of under 400 feet. This sUAS will be operated in accordance with the limitations and restrictions enumerated in Exemption No. 12349 already granted Dacoda Bartels. Please see the DJI Inspire 1 Specifications below.

## This requested amendment would not set any precedent or otherwise raise any novel issue, and because the addit ion of this sUAS platform to my flee t will not materially affect the already granted petition No. 12349 in any way, Dacoda Bartels seeks to begin these operations without delay. Dacoda Bartels respectfully requests the FAA to determine that good cause exists to dispense with publication of the summary of this petition in the Federal Register and grant the requested amendment expeditiously by summary means. Thank you for your kind consideration in the granting of this amendment. Best regards, Dacoda Bartels dacoda.aerobotics@gmail.com 504 -458 - 4665
