    DJI RC Pro Compatibilty

    Thank you. I guess those of us that have the Mavic 2 series are already left out in the cold. Hard to believe they would discontinue a controller for something as recent as the Mavic 2 unless they have a replacement for it. It's not like it's old enough to be considered "end of life"

    DJI RC Pro Compatibilty

    I've been searching this site and others and I am getting mixed answers so I will post here and see if you have any experience with my question. My drone currently is a Mavic 2 Pro and I am looking for a smart controller because of the brighter screen. The original smart controller that I know...

    I’m going for it!!! The FAA Part 107. I’ll nail it! I’ve got determination!!

    Passed my 107 week before last with a 93% score. I used Drone Pilot Training School but there are many good training programs out there. It's an easy test as long as you study and have a good handle on the material. There will likely be 3 or 4 questions that are very tricky--answers are so...

    B&H Photo - PayBoo Acct - State Tax discounted

    No kidding. I have a least 5 private label cards all issued by Synchrony Bank. Each time I pay a bill, I have to research which bill I am paying so I don't accidentally have the payment applied to the wrong account. It's mind numbing :oops:

    B&H Photo - PayBoo Acct - State Tax discounted

    I don't believe so. My understanding is that Payboo is a B&H credit card offered through Synchrony Bank and can only be used with B&H. I've used B&H for a few years for my DSLR equipment and now drone equipment. It's really my only source for any large purchase.

    B&H Photo - PayBoo Acct - State Tax discounted

    Same here in Arkansas. Although a probably much lower 8.5% sales tax rate compared to California, it still saved me a little over $185 in tax savings on on new Mavic 2 Pro & Fly More kit. I had the funds to pay it all up front but instead used the PayBoo, saved the $185 and paid the Payboo in...

    Hard to find work

    Perfect Dave! Retiring from 45 years in sales management from a global manufacturing company, we call that feature/benefit. Daves first two comments are features. They allow a potential customer to ask "so what". The third example provides a benefit (how it helps the customer). A feature is...

    Conway here. Just got the Mavic 2 Pro a couple of weeks ago. I retired back at the beginning of October 2019 and have been thinking about getting a drone and begin putting real estate footage together for realtors (my wife is one). Retirement doesn't pay very well so a good way to make some...
