But having a licence plate number in the UK doesn’t give away the registered keepers details to any old Tom,**** or Karen, whereas RID will. Probably breaks UK data protection regulations in some way.

The clips will be breaking because there is nothing to stop you pressing the clips in any further than needed to release the battery. At least the battery extractor only pushes the clips in as far as necessary and no more.

Try looking at and reading post #7.

Grasping and inverting the drone once it’s landed in your hand puts unnecessary strain on the drones systems and gives you the opportunity to mess up as the drone will oppose this movement. When the drone lands in your hand just keep the left stick all the way down and the motors will just stop.

But not necessarily a work address and it’s not the registered owner in the uk it’s the registered keeper. I’ll certainly not be starting drones up at home to do updates or checks and they might as well consign quick transfer to the bin as it will be back to transferring files via sd card.

In the UK, Karen from wherever can’t find my home address just by entering the licence plate of my car into an app!

Always land tail towards you, that means that stick movements can be instinctive and gives you the area around the battery to grasp gently but firmly. If there is a breeze stand with your back to it and use yourself as a windbreak. Try to land side on to a breeze and the drone will bounce around.

Nice! Did you notice if the status lights went out during recording and did you have any other collision avoidance lights fitted?

You’ll hear more from people who have problems with a service than those for where everything has gone well. It’s just the way of the internet!

Sunset, clouds, view. Why do most people fly their drones. We don’t all live in the wilds. I live right on the edge of a city, but my back fence is one hedge (a planted barrier consisting of trees and bushes trimmed to be stock proof) from his farm. Even if I fly vertically above my property he...

Having owned an Autel Nano amongst my DJI drones, it felt like a toy and only had really stable flight if it wasn’t being pushed. I wouldn’t want to buy or even fly another Autel device.

It’s for wasting weight. I’ve not used it in the month and a half I’ve owned a mini 5 pro!

No. I wasn’t hiding but he was a couple of fields away and this was a Mavic Pro so quite noisy.

I didn’t need to be broadcasting RID when the guy from the farm next door came around and told me in no uncertain terms not to fly over his farmyard or he’d shoot my drone out of the sky! So don’t tell me these things don’t happen.

The real problem is that the cost of living across the world is not equal. If it were the seamstress in Vietnam would be asking around about the same wage as a seamstress in the states in which case there would be no cost saving having goods produced on the other side of the world and shipping...
