    New to Killeen area

    Thanks Hauptmann! Tennessee is certainly scenic but looking forward to flying the great Texas skies. Thanks for the info! Hope to get up soon but winds have been high seems since we got here so hopefully will die down soon. Thanks again

    New to Killeen area

    Recently moved to Killeen TX and trying to decipher the state park laws, from what I'm reading, there are only two state areas I can fly unless I get a filming permit; also, no flying near the boarder (scenic areas) is this correct? Also I'd be grateful if anyone can tell me some good places...

    State Farm - After a claim

    You know I fully understand the numbers just don't add up i.e. $60. per year with a $1000. payout if lost, it just makes me wonder if SF took some time to actually crunch the numbers before allowing drones as part of the personal article. It also made me think, if I was to loose, or destroy one...

    State Farm - After a claim

    I realize SF branches serve under a main office and policies but seem to dictate their own business practices. I renewed for a new year and as luck would have it, had a mishap at that time. What blew me away was SF accepted my money and renewed, paid the claim and then informed me they would no...

    Shout out to Thunder Drones

    Since there was no reason for the disconnects/ interruptions happening at close distances as well as far, Thunder Drones determined it was a "sensitive" antenna, and when repositioned, corrected the issue. The good news, a simple issue with a simple fix and not an app or software/hardware issue...

    Shout out to Thunder Drones

    While this is about the MP1, I wanted to give a "general" shout out for Thunder Drones and the great work he has done on my MP gimbal replacement and analysis of some disconnect/interruption issues. While Rob could have simply fixed the gimbal as requested and sent the drone back as "work...

    Video footage is choppy or glitchy

    bsaeed, sorry for the delay in response. What I found was a combination of all stated above. To explain: 1st you need a good sd card, I use extreme U310 that will handle the processing speed of the video especially if you are shooting in 3.7 or 4K. 2nd, I found the camera settings play a...

    Video footage is choppy or glitchy

    Maverik, I believe it was a combination of a couple of things, but yes in my case I ended up reformatting my sd card. The other issue was the gimbal but I haven't had an issue in a couple of weeks. I'll be flying the coast in the morning and will be looking out for the glitches. Other than what...

    In one flight

    Good job Oyibo VFX, nice footage. Would have been interesting to see the a closer view of the structures, but none the least interesting to watch. Thanks

    Mavic video wobbles (SOLVED)

    Liquid I'm sorry to hear of your friends issues, very frustrating and disappointing when you spend that kind of money with the hopes of making great videos. I would send it back as well and hope the next does better. Thanks for the update SGM
