    Anyone ever return a drone to amazon?

    Howdy Texas. Thank you sir. Texas Aggie '56 here. Amazon only wanted the discharge month and year but papers went missing long ago. It is amazing I still had my ID. I got on line and ordered my DD-214 but it would not be here before Amazon's Nov 11 offer end. BTW my ID from the day only has my...

    Anyone ever return a drone to amazon?

    Did the same. I am a vet from 60 years ago. Didn't remember my discharge date. Sent a pic of my service ID. They were extremely helpful. The help lady said I had 700 orders over the last 20 years. Thanks Amazon for remembering and supporting us.

    orbit without point of interest?

    Litchi updated Oct 18, 2019 to v4.15.0g which their 'Whats new' says -added support for android 10. You may have seen this and don't need it any more with your other solution. My Samsung 9S+ does not have android 10 yet so I can't verify. Glad you got Litchi anyway. It is certainly wonderful...

    Chernobyl

    Thank you sir for correcting my English spelling. I edited the 'o' to an 'a' in my posting. Impressive that you speak Russian. I speak German but Russian is considerable more difficult.

    Seniors; What aides have you come up with to help you enjoy flying more?

Before RK I was 6 and 7 diopters myoptic. the 16 RK slices trashed my cornea for lasik or multi-focal inner ocular lens lens implants. My son-in-law did the...

    How long does it usually take for FAA to review and accept/decline airspace waiver?

    Submitted mine May 15, 73 days ago. Not holding my breath. I am a Cessna T210 pilot so know our local tower guys. I frequently don't call them but do if planning on staying near 400 AGL very long. I certainly don't mind, but am hoping that the airspace authorization will say good to go with...

    Thanks to Rob at ThunderDrones!

    Best tablet with HDMI output

    Indeed, I got a Nvidia Shield K1 from eBay 2 weeks ago out of frustration with my android phones and tablets not handling DJI Go 4 video. It is built for gaming and the video processor is fast enough for glassy smooth MPP video - finally! An English gentleman has a YT video demonstrating it...
