Copy on that. I also use AirMap and am very aware that the flight for life heli’s are in the area often. Never out of VLOS and with two strobes. And since I’m mostly checking my cattle, I’m hardly ever above 80’. Hard to see specifics from too high. But agreed, was mostly stating I haven’t come...

I can see smith rock from my ranch. I’m in between smith rock and the redmond airport. DJI fly safe says I’m ok to fly at my ranch but I haven’t looked at smith rock. Love that place. Also haven’t even thought about flying there as I tend to avoid people and that place draws folks from all over.

I have to call my bank anytime I want to use my card for a purchase in China specifically. It’s some sort of fraud prevention gimmick. They give me a 24 hour window to make purchases online and then lock it down again. Never asked for it and I’ve never tried to remove it. But I remember getting...

Might be too late. But not gonna lose anything to try. Figure all those salt and minerals have dried on the board. Wanna generally do as soon as possible a water rinse with a gallon or two of distilled water as that will also pull some of the minerals and salts off the boards. Fresh water is...

As a corporate video lead, editing or doing anything from the card is always going to be a bottle neck. I use an external SSD dock from Atomos to usb-c to copy all my files onto which allows super high speed access. That being said it’s not the most affordable setup. Still advise to copy the...

Yeah. But I already have a M2Pro and the platinum pro is sooooo quiet. In hind sight there are few different purchases I’ve made recently that would’ve been different had I done them in a different order.

Im sorry to hear that you lost your drone. I fly often around giant condors here in Cali and always worry about getting whacked or attacked. I dont antagonize them, but still. As far as drone only, I just got a replacement platinum pro from DJI for the refurbished price. No controller or battery...

Thanks hoss. To zero in I’m actually out here at vandenburg AFB. So there’s some heavy restrictions on my airspace. Hence why I put SB. ;0) I’ll be sure to post some footage once I get cooking And the wharf sounds amazing when I can get down there. Been compiling a hit list for hiking spaces...

Looking forward to all the tips, tricks, discussions and help. If anyone has any suggestions for fly zones in the area I’m open. Thanks in advance. Gigs
