I would agree with that premise other than the fact that the battery had never been out of the box. Shame on them to create a battery with no shelf time. I guess I wouldn't consider such a battery as being "smart". LOL
When I bought this drone several years ago I bought an extra battery for it. Don't fly that much so I left it in the box. When I took it out of the ORIGINAL BOX and tried to charge it today, it will not take a charge and is as dead as a fritter. Is there anything that can be done, or is is...
with the intent to conduct surveillance on the individual or property captured in the image.
The ambiguity here is obvious. This is not a hypothetical situation. In my case, it was my brother who was innocently flying his drone from his property on a golf course (which is not operational...
Evidently legal flying of drones in Texas is going to be a rare occurrence unless "capturing an image" does not mean having a live feed during a flight. Title 4 Subtitle B Chapter 423 USE OF UNMANNED CRAFT makes it pretty clear that it is against the law to "capture images" over private...
I just received an email from my brother who also recreationally flies his drone around his house. He lives on a golf course that has recently been bought by a multi-millionaire who is renovating the course. As he was just flying around showing a friend how his drone flies, the owner drove up...
I take no offense from anyone trying to help me. I put the controller on the charger and let it sit for a few minutes. Climbed to 97% and I took it off. Voila! It turned on and said "connecting". However, now the battery, when in place on the drone, will not turn on at all! Tried two...
Went out to fly my Mavic Platinum Pro today. Got everything set up and plugged in. Tried to turn on controller - screen flashed "battery at 95%" then turned off. Tried several times with same result. Interestingly, although the drone battery is near full charge, I couldn't get the drone to...
Thank you for these inputs. With my infrequent drone use however, I think I'm just going to have to accept the fact that it is not efficient in terms of long term battery service to have a 100% charged battery available at all times for instant use. That is ok.
Wow, it's hard to believe that someone would fly their drone so low as to get in the way of firefighting activities unless it interfered with aerial dispersal of fire retardant from an aircraft. Since lettuce allegedly contains carcinogens that must be reported to consumers in California, I...
I am anything but an expert on drones. I bought a Mavic Platinum and have fun using it, but certainly not daily. Most of my usage would be spontaneous, impromptu usage such as nice sunrises, sunsets, unusual activity or events worthy of drone use, etc. As someone wanting to maximize my...
Opinions like this are great, but much more helpful if reasons why it it "definitely worth the upgrade" when you're going to spend at least $1000 for it. Before I could advise the OP, even as a "novice" at this drone flying, I would at least want to know what he/she is primarily using the drone...
Where I fly my drone I have almost zero risk of ever getting a fine from the FAA but for grins I went to the website to see what it was all about. I'm now registered. $5 and five minutes. No big deal!
I started wondering why the "law would allow" such ridiculously high fines for flying...
