This situation does exist.

Got rejected, asked around and was told that they pay a lot of attention to the background, so those without a strong background shouldn't even bother. The impact factor has dropped, which means higher quality articles are required. It may be necessary to reach the level of the second zone in order to publish in the third zone. This is the first time I've realized that MDPI pays attention to these things.

Drones, has it become a Class 3 category this year?

Hey, I found out it's in District 3. I just received it for repair. It's really frustrating.

Hasn't it changed to zone three?

Have you found out about the new district today? Which district is Drones in? Thank you.

This year has been downgraded to Zone Two, what a pity!

I don't know who thinks MDPI is easy. After submitting, I feel the difficulty is quite high.

12.27 Submission
1.15 Rejection and resubmission
1.20 Submission
1.30 Major revision
2.7 Minor revision
2.27 Minor revision
3.4 Acceptance

The major revision after the rejection and resubmission involved adding new experiments. The major revision mainly focused on revising the literature review, adding more references, and including some future prospects. In the final two minor revisions, two figures were unclear, so high-resolution versions were submitted.

Does anyone know how to obtain "dual-use approval from their institutional review board or funding agency" for the defense and security direction of Drones? Is there a template available? Please help, thank you.

A new military and defense column has been opened, with friendly editors and high efficiency. The suggestions provided by the reviewers are also very pertinent.

Has Youyou received any feedback on the revisions of his paper? I wonder if the revisions in the second half of the year are slower than in the first half.

The content of the submission is about the direction of space exploration. I think the suggestions given by the reviewers are very good and I have carefully read and considered them. I have carefully addressed each question and I am very grateful. However, some of the review comments are difficult to respond to, as some of the questions are quite challenging and require a high level of expertise.

After a major revision, it was very difficult to respond to the review comments, even more difficult than responding to those from SCI Zone 3. Afterwards, the major revision was submitted, followed by a minor revision four days later, and acceptance one day after submission.

First review takes more than 50 days; 
second review takes 6 days, and it takes two months from submission to acceptance. 
The journal requirements are not high, just submit a paper to make up the numbers.
