Please give north Las Vegas tower a call, you are only a couple miles from the airport in that location also class B surface area is just a little to the east of Craig ranch.

I have fought this same problem, I could only get out to 2500’ and lose video. The Mavic 2 doesn’t have the option to connect 2 goggles and 2 remotes like the Mavic Pro. Called tech support and they were no help. Boxed it all up and returned it and getting a Mavic Pro, take it out to 13,000’...

What was your low battery warning set to if you don’t mind me asking?

It’s runway 8 now, they use it because terrain is lower going that way, s Ightly downhill.

After that happened to me a few times I made it standard practice to bring it into a hover switch to sport mode and start recording then off I go. I always record because things that I don’t notice while flying I see on playback on my computer screen. Got some good shots of wildlife ect that I...

Seems like our society doesn’t know how to talk to one another anymore. There is a way to get your point across to someone post on here without leaving the impression that your calling them an idiot. After the first person pointed out every mistake he made then we don’t need to cover that 20...

All you need is a label maker and put it on the outside of the Mavic, I put mine on one of the arms. Also have a Ireland sticker as required to fly there.

Great story, thanks for sharing, I will consider your situation and fly accordingly. Good learning experience!

That is true but if you look at all of the Class B airports most are not standard. I fly from KLAS McCarran and in some areas it goes out as far as 36 nm other directions only 10nm. The surface area is where you have to worry about.

Sorry didn’t load on first try

Here is a screen shot from ForeFlight of PHL

It’s 8 nm out from PHL and goes from surface to 7000’. I was referring to the 5 miles away from airport rule being 5 sm. That doesn’t apply to Class B airspace. Not sure if I am explaining it clearly.

I think it’s 5 st I think it’s 5 statute miles, the rules were written for non pilot recreational UAV operations and they were trying to keep them as easy as possible. Most people don’t know what a nautical mile is unless they are pilots or boat capt.

The coordinates of Aokusman gave are in class B airspace that starts at surface and goes to 7000ft.
