    Whale spotting in Sea Ranch, CA

    I got this great footage before crashing my drone later that day. Can anyone identify the whales? I was thinking Humpback

    Mavic Mini Lost at Sea

    I decided not to attempt to retrieve the drone. The place where it came to rest is under the tide table so the drone could be anywhere by now. If I knew I could retrieve it, I'd probably try but it's too dangerous and I'd very likely come up with nothing.

    Thank you for the information! I might have to do that. I’m here for another few days.

    Mavic Mini Lost at Sea

    I made a rookie mistake. There are probably hundreds of posts like this. I’m a drone novice and I attempted to fly under a rock arch on the coast of California. It was about 25 high and 10 feet wide. I would have made it but I lost signal on the far side of the rock and the drone met the rock...

    One Should Always Read the Fine Print!

    Oh yeah keep me posted! I think I follow the fellow from Cazadero on here, but I don't remember his name. I'd love to join in on that meetup if possible

    One Should Always Read the Fine Print!

    Turns out the goggles can be used as a generic VR headset on PC, so I guess that's how I'll use them for now!

    One Should Always Read the Fine Print!

    I have a Mavic Mini, and in my excitement I decided to buy DJI Goggles to go with it. I looked on the product page and saw "Mavic Series", however I didn't read the fine print that says "except for the Mavic Mini". Oh well. I guess I have an expensive paperweight for the time being. Maybe I...

    Any IT people in here?

    I'm a senior software engineer. I build web and mobile apps for a tech company in San Francisco. I've been a tech geek my entire life. Getting into drones (recently, like last week) has been a blast for me!

    Anyone in Sonoma County?

    I'm looking for drone pilots in Sonoma County (North SF Bay Area) who do meetups or just casual hangouts. Thanks!

    Hi! New pilot here from Sonoma County

    Hi everyone, I'm brand new to drones. The only RC vehicles I've used are wheeled. I have a Mavic Mini with the Fly More set. I've added some motor protectors to the MM, as well as some leg extenders. So far I've only flown around my town at a small park near my kids' school. I feel super...

    Mini Batteries

    I was able to snag a few from Best Buy. I bought 5 and then they canceled two.
